Did you know?

  • Its name means drawn-out face, after its long, wide snout.
  • Many well-preserved skeletons from Texas make it one of the best-known early amphibians.

Could you guess it from clues?

WildGuessr picks a secret animal, plant, fungus, stone, prehistoric creature or space object and you ask yes-or-no questions about it, such as its group or where it grows. The fewer clues you need, the more points you score.
