One of the main goals of this profile is to recreate extinct ecosystems as accurately as possible so you can feel as if you were truly there. The places shown here are not random because each of them could have existed millions of years ago. I often associate geological periods with a single image or idea, but reality was far more diverse. Each era lasted for millions of years and contained extraordinary landscapes spread across different parts of Earth. A perfect example is #Permian. It is usually imagined as a world of dry semi deserts, harsh environments and a period ending with the greatest mass extinction in Earth’s history. However, that image tells only a small part of the story. It was just one of many biomes that existed at the time. Environments like the swamp you see here were also part of the Late Permian world. A landscape like this may have existed in what is now southern China around 255 million years ago, just 3 million years before the largest mass extinction in Ea...
