The Ordovician period was home to six-foot sea scorpions, giant squid-like cephalopods with towering shells, and countless trilobites. But it also marked the first mass extinction in Earth’s history, wiping out 85% of all life. For the first time, animal life faced a global collapse on an unprecedented scale. The cause? A dramatic shift from intense global cooling to rapid warming. It was a devastating one-two punch. Full series on Colossal's YouTube. | Colossal Biosciences

Arandaspis was an early jawless vertebrate (an arandaspid) from the Ordovician Period, living roughly 480 to 470 million years ago. Reaching about 15 cm (6 in) in length, it had bony armor covering the head and front part of the body, with a more weakly known tail region. It likely lived close to the seafloor and probably fed on small food particles or organisms taken in through its jawless mouth, although this feeding style is inferred from its anatomy rather than directly preserved evidence.

(Redo! Cuz I beefed something up!) Why not visit the Ordovician period? The Ordovician period began about 486 mya, at the end of the Cambrian. While the Cambrian critters are a hard show to follow, fossil evidence tells us that life on earth diversified even more than during the cambrian explosion! Unfortunately, it all came crashing down, as the end of Ordovician is marked by one of the first of the 5 big mass extinctions. The event was even more deadly than the one that killed non-avian dinosa

BrennanThePaleoDude on Instagram: "I would have loved to scuba dive in the Ordovician reefs! The Ordovician Period lasted almost 45 million years, beginning 488.3 million years ago and ending 443.7 million years ago. During this period, the area north of the tropics was almost entirely ocean, and most of the world’s land was collected into the southern supercontinent Gondwana. Ordovician reefs were built by a variety of organisms, including sponges, corals, and microbes, and were teeming with di
