Fossil of what? Clickbaity.

It's a mostly complete happy-looking dinosaur skull of an Eryops megacephalus, a large-headed semi-aquatic predator that lived over 280 million years ago during the Permian period.

10/10 happy dino!

Actually, Eryops megacephalus is an amphibian and not a dinosaur. It's from the Permian period, 280 million years ago.

Ah, being excluded from Dinotopia makes Eryops sad!
