An alternative evolution

Akiyama

Many of the links seem to be broken, which is a pity, including the second link you posted.

I have a book based on the same idea - The New Dinosaurs: An Alternative Evolution by Dougal Dixon (1988).

Funny, the 2nd link just worked for me...and this is the better of the two links I provided. I think this is actually a much better effort than Dougal Dixon's book. Hope you can get the links to work

Akiyama, try to see the second link with Internet Explorer. In my computer it doesn't work with Firefox.

I know Daniel Bensen' site since some years ago and I love it. It's a pity that there aren't any recent updates. I specially like the hypsilophodontids evolving into manatee-like marine dinosars, the hyena-like oviraptors and the primates going a different cat-like evolutionary way. And of course, the fact that dromaeosaurs remain as top predators on Earth. :D

I like the attention given to mammals, actually. Most "dinosaurs don't die out" schemes presume mammals either stay tiny and inconsequential or become extinct. I like the fact that many of the modern groups of mammals flourish in Spec alongside reptiles and dinosaurs/birds, even some primates. And you can't go wrong with fuzzy cute tyrannosaurids

Basically, it is a wonderfully fleshed out world.
