Probainognathus, known from a number of specimens, was about 10 cm in length and extremely mammal-like in terms of its anatomy.

According to some authors, it has perhaps two known members: Probainognathus from South America, and the somewhat later Lepagia from Europe.

It seems reasonably closely related to Probainognathus, a somewhat earlier inhabitant of South America.

Its affinities are unclear, but it seems to be related to Probainognathus.

Albertosaurus (; meaning " Alberta lizard ") is a genus of tyrannosaurid theropod dinosaur that lived in western North America during the Late Cretaceous Period, about 70 million years ago.

The type species, A. sarcophagus, was apparently restricted in range to the modern-day Canadian province of Alberta, after which the genus is named.

In Central and South America, the alligator family is represented by five species of the genus Caiman, which differs from the alligator by the absence of a bony septum between the nostrils, and the ventral armour is composed of overlapping bony scutes, each of which is formed of two parts united by a suture.

The stomach anatomy of a hippo is not suited to carnivory, and meat-eating is likely caused by aberrant behavior or nutritional stress.

In Hinduism, vegetarianism is the ideal, but meat-eating is not banned.

For a while, Red and her pack are happy, feeding off the plentiful carrion left by receding flood waters, but the pack's way of life is upset by an invasion of large Acrocanthosaurus, huge meat-eating dinosaurs.

The most conspicuous feature of Ouranosaurus is a large sail on its back, supported by long, wide, neural spines, that spanned its entire rump and tail, resembling that of Spinosaurus, a well-known meat-eating dinosaur that lived around the same time.

Because of this, many residents of Lothlorien are vegetarians and vegans, but diet is not a condition of residence and meat-eating members are quite common.

Akbar is said to have given up hunting and quit meat-eating forever as it had become repulsive.

For example, the group of reptiles, as traditionally defined, is paraphyletic: it contains the last common ancestor of the reptiles — including the extant reptiles as well as the extinct mammal-like reptiles — along with all descendants of that ancestor except for mammals and birds.

A major feature of phylogenetic classification is the removal of the mammal-like reptiles like this Varanodon from reptiles to their own separate group, the Synapsida

The term " mammal-like reptiles " represents a paraphyletic grade, but is commonly used both colloquially and in the technical literature to refer to all non-mammalian synapsids.

This group encompasses all now-living reptiles as well as birds, and as such is comparable to Goodrich's classification, the difference being that better resolution of the early amniote tree has split up most of the Goodrich's " Protosauria ", though definitions of Sauropsida essentially identical to Huxley's ( i. e. including the mammal-like reptiles ) are also forwarded.

Dicynodontia is a taxon of anomodont therapsids or mammal-like reptiles with beginnings in the mid-Permian, which were dominant from Late Permian through the Triassic, with a few surviving into the Early Cretaceous.

The remains of the Cryolophosaurus were found in the Hanson Formation with the remains of Glacialisaurus ( a large basal sauropodomorph ), a small pterosaur, a mammal-like reptile ( a tritylodont, which is a type of synapsid about the size of a rat ), and another unknown theropod.

For information on the mammal-like " reptiles " ( therapsids ) and other amniotes often considered reptiles ( including the well-known Dimetrodon ), which are not part of the clade Sauropsida ( with which " Reptilia " is generally synonymized ), see Synapsid ( amniotes related to mammals ).

Dimetro is an evolved Dimetrodon, which is a synapsid or mammal-like reptile, rather than a dinosaur.

Hadrocodium is the earliest known example of several features possessed only by mammals, including mammal-like mandible, middle-ear structures, and a relatively large brain cavity.
