Description Here is the latest in the "Walking in the Mesozoic Formations": Walking in the Elliot Formation.

Specifically, the Upper Elliot Formation in the dawn of the Jurassic Period 200 Million years ago.  In the Lands that will become the home of the Zulu Tribes, South Africa and Lesotho, one of the first mammals, a Megazostrodon, looks on the dramatic scenes before it.  A family of fanged Heterodontosaurus fight of an intruding Megapnosaurus.  Off to the side, a small crocodile relative called Litargosuchus runs off with its insect meal.  

On the other side of the river, an example of the apex predator of the formation, a Dracovenator, has chosen the wrong target.  A Zulu warrior stands against the predator with a heard of the proto-sauropod Massospondylus, the most common dinosaur in the formation (another herd is seen in the background).  An aggressive Ledumahadi, the biggest animal in formation, joins the fray while others of its kind graze nearby.  A pair of Aardonyx, another proto-sauropod, look on from the trees and a small Lesothosaurus flees the scene.  

I am open to critiques and feedback.  I hope you like it!  If you any suggestions on what formation I should do next, please comment.
