Therapsids Originated in Tropical Rather than Temperate Regions https://www.sci.news/paleontology/mallorca-gorgonopsian-13515.html
Early–middle Permian Mediterranean gorgonopsian suggests an equatorial origin of therapsids https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-54425-5
"#Therapsids were a dominant component of #Permian terrestrial ecosystems, eventually giving rise to #mammals during the early #Mesozoic... #Paleontologists have discovered a #NewSpecies of early #gorgonopsian #therapsid that was part of an ancient summer wet biome of equatorial #Pangea"

Okay, but if I could just nerd out for a second, #synapsids and #therapsids are freaking cool and yet they don't get as much attention as the dinosaurs, and here's some introductory information on them: https://dinomuseum.ca/2020/02/a-brief-history-of-mammals-part-1-the-early-synapsids

New Triassic #Dicynodont Species Discovered in Poland
https://www.sci.news/paleontology/woznikella-triradiata-11963.html"#Dicynodonts were an important clade of herbivorous #therapsids, which originated in the #Permian and vanished in the latest #Triassic... In the Triassic, this clade ranged from miniscule animals less than half a meter long to massive species comparable in size to the largest living terrestrial #mammals"

It's extraordinary we're here at all. The Permian-Triassic extinction known as the "Great Dying" was worse than you could possibly imagine.
Also of note: Dinosaurs were small potatoes during the early Triassic. Many other Archosaurs and reptiles dominated

Southern #Africa is one of the most important places in the world for understanding the #Permian, the period that ended with the largest #MassExtinction in #Earth's history. The valleys of the #Luangwa and #Zambezi in #Zambia 🇿🇲 are particularly rich in Permian fossils, including this #gorgonopsian on display at the #UniversityOfWashington's #BurkeMuseum. These impressive animals are #therapsids, close relatives of mammals and perhaps the first #sabertooths.
