DILOPHOSAUR
Classification: Teropods, Neoteropods
Body length: 6 m
Body weight: 500 kg - 1 t
Period: Early Jurassic
Locations: USA, China
The name Dilofosaurus is derived from the Greek words “di” (“du”), “lophos” (“rag”) and “sauros” (“lizard”); hence the "lizard of two rags."
It originated from the most peculiar feature of Dilofosaurus - a pair of rounded rags in the skull, made up of extensions of the nasal bones.
They are considered too fragile for someone else apart from the demonstration. Dilophosaurs were carnivores and a myth of dead skeletons because their teeth were too weak to kill a large prey.

dimetrodon
Classification: Synapsids, pelycosauria, sphenacodontidae
Body length: 3 m
Body weight: 250 kg
Epoch: Early Permian
Locations: USA, Germany
Dimetrodon is often confused with dinosaurs or their period, while in truth they have been extinct for 40 million years before the first dinosaur walked in the Triassic period.
Dimetrodon was a herbivore, living in swampy areas, it had a large head and mouth, large and strong jaw, as well as two types of teeth – sharp caniniforms and incisor teeth. It used to eat other pelycosaurs, insects and other mammals.
It could rise from its cold and lazy habitat much earlier than the dawn than pelycosaurs ‘without the sail’, then catch them and eat them.
