    Love the Raul Martín ilustration :D I notice the Antetonitrus has its thumb claw raised like that of a raptor (or a Thylacoleo :D), looks cool.

    They reached their peak during the Maastritchian? :O And to think that we were all taught that they went extinct at the beginning of the Cretaceous XD

    It would appear so (potential gaps in the fossil record from other time periods notwithstanding). There are more kinds of sauropod known from the Maastrichtian than the late Jurassic which is traditionally considered their peak.
