I am not a paleontologist, but the reptiles, in my view, came from the sea, slowly, but over time lost their gills, & developed lungs... They grew in size, & continued to develop into the strong life forms their bones showed to us millions of year's after... And the story continues...

Sgt (Join to see) While I Love the History, Paleontology is Definitely Outside My Knowledge and Skill Sets. I'm Just a Retired Telecommunications Man and Navy Spook. Just happened by Luck of the Draw to be MAA to Naval Research Labs, Interior Decorator for an Astronaut and Aide de Campe for a Leader in the Computer World. Just a Village Idiot that Hung Out with People Way Smarter Than Me.
