The Irisavis (Iris - Greek mythology - rainbow messenger of the gods / avis - Latin; bird) irisavis... or prehistoric "rainbow bird". Very VERY large (wingspan approximately 20 metres) and very carnivorous. Large fangs protruding from the lower beak are thought to have hooked smaller creatures in a monstrous bite, before being swallowed WHOLE! Like an owl, these creatures also spat up the bones, fur and any other parts they could not digest. These "pellets" were more like boulders, given the size of the bird. Thought to be the "ultimate" ancestor of the peacock, and perhaps related to legends of the phoenix. This bird-like creature would likely have few predators in the sky, and it very seldom landed. Only their eggs (weighing more than a large truck), were sometimes at risk, as the irisavis did not nest, but unceremoniously dropped her eggs into the ocean, where they would eventually hatch - fully feathered - and burst to the surface in a flurry of fearsome feathers. - April, Sudbury |
My dinosaur lived in the nitrogen-rich post-volcanic southern hemisphere, where lush foliage, including early coffee trees, provided her main source of food. Volcanic heat and pressure would also bring pockets of water boiling to the surface, where sun roasted coffee beans on the ground would create a "coffee". This species slept very little, and drank a lot of this natural beverage. They were also very intelligent, creating tools (or cups) that have often been found near this species. Hence their name; Coffea Arabicasaurus. - April, Sudbury |

The Hugasaur had long arms to hug a lot. It had a lot of babies. The hugasaur laid eggs. The eggs hatched early and would leave the nest sometime before they were completely hatched. A mother hugasaur was very, very busy. They ate flowers and would change colours to match the flowers they had eaten. Even the eggs would be different colours. This would be an excellent camouflage for the hugasaurs since they would blend in with the flowers around them. - Shelby, Sudbury |
My dinosaur is special because it has a big sail on its back, rows of plates and spikes along its back and tail. It also has side spikes to protect its side from attacks by other predators. My dinosaur is like a big monster, so I named it Stegamonstorsaurus. - Selwin, Oakville |

My dinosaur's name is Riskdragon. My dragon cooks food with his strong fire. His nose has extra powerful sense of smell. He has double sharp teeth. His favorite thing to do is hunting bad animals. This dinosaur is protecting me from bad with his fire arrows and he has a protective shield on himself that can protect me as well. - Samuel, Vaughan |
