Eons Roundup 15

It’s time for a little bit more recent PBS Eons work this week:

An illustration of Arctodictis, an extinct predatory mammal related to modern marsupials. It's a vaguely wolverine-like animal with a boxy snout, a low-slung body, stout limbs, and a long tail. It's depicted in a crouched stalking pose, and it's colored grey-brown with darker spot and stripe markings.
Arctodictis sp.
An illustration of Thoatherium, an extinct hoofed mammal. It resembles a small horse or deer, with a long face, high-set pointed ears, a boxy body, a short tail, and long slender legs each ending in a single hoofed toe. It's depicted with its head lowered to browse on some leaves, and it's colored reddish-brown with a darker back and limbs and a lighter belly
Thoatherium sp.
