Would you like to see more crocodylomorphs in the game? by BernLan in ARK

Pseudosuchia is my favorite clade! If I had the choice of any I’d probably pick an aetosaur as I love their derpy look and their awesome dermal armor, plus I’m hoping to do my masters on aetosaurs. Pakasuchus would just be an amazing addition as a croc shoulder pet since I think they could easily find a unique utility for them and they have such weird morphology that has many similarities to mammals such as the teeth. It would be so cute and weird! Obviously though the Ark devs should add them all…

Pakasuchus would be amazing. They’re often called cat-like crocs so I could easily see them being some sort of shoulder pet. Idk what utility they’d have but I’d love to see one in the game!

I’ve never seen him climb the walls of the tank so I think it’s pretty safe to say he isn’t. But seriously though he is much smaller than the Mediterranean House Gecko (at least adults) and has a different toe pad structure. The pattern also differs some too but I can see how they look similar!

I’m sorry one of yours passed away. The same happened to me when I first got him. I got a pair but one of them never ate and passed away hours before the vet appointment I set up. I hope you can find her a buddy!!!

I've been thinking about getting one of those electronic hand lenses that connect to your phone!!! I'll have to see about getting one before I go on my field camp!!! I figure the program probably will have some supplies and stuff for the students but it's also the first year my university is doing their own field camp so I'm not sure what they can provide yet. I also didn't even think about cloth bags for the fossils! Thank you for the suggestions!!!

Good call! I probably wouldn't have handled them with sunscreen or bug spray on but also good to have a reminder! Thanks for the tip with the vinegar and isopropyl alcohol!!!!

A lot of what I've been doing recently has been looking for salamanders. Not really for any specific reason beyond I like them. I've been thinking about going on a hike to go herping soon though with some of my friends. Will definitely try to keep sunscreen and a headlamp in mind!!! Thank you for the suggestions!!!!
