Field notes
The homepage gives Spinosaurus an especially detailed sequence, including competing interpretations of its stance, habitat, and swimming ability. Its image policy distinguishes historical reconstructions from present-day AI imaginings, and says the latter are based on cited research and reference art. The site describes its sources as papers and official museum or university announcements, rather than news articles or roundup sites.
