Apex predator of its environment, the Whatcheeria grew extraordinarily rapidly
Long before the dinosaurs or even the advent of the earliest true amphibians and reptiles, Whatcheeria was a genuine apex predator. -

Ancient superpredator that lived 328 million years ago was 'the T. rex of its time'

Early #tetrapods like #whatcheeriads were related to modern #reptiles, #amphibians and #mammals but were in a different evolutionary lineage than the ancestor of those three groups. To find rapid growth in as old an animal as #Whatcheeria was really unexpected.

#Whatcheeria was a six-foot-long lake-dwelling #creature with a #salamander-like body and a long, narrow head; its #fossils were discovered in a limestone quarry near the town of What Cheer, Iowa.

Cracking open a fossil bone reveals rapid juvenile growth in early tetrapods
https://phys.org/news/2022-11-fossil-bone-reveals-rapid-juvenile.htmlIt was long thought that these early animals (ancestors of #amphibians, #reptiles, #birds, and #mammals) grew very slowly throughout their lifetime, gradually getting bigger and bigger, similar to a modern #salamander... #Whatcheeria's elevated growth rates as a juvenile shows us that maybe slow and steady growth is not actually the ancestral condition for all #tetrapods.
