Walt Disney was right

Today I read a fascinating article in the New York Times about the recent discovery, in South Korea, of an ancestor of the modern crocodile. It seems to be an entirely new species, heretofore undiscovered.

What’s fascinating is that it lived 100 million years ago, was nine feet long, and walked on its hind legs. Pretty cool stuff.

When I read this, it reminded me of something I had seen, and then I realized what. Walt Disney’s Fantasia anticipated something similar, as you can see in the image below.

Amazing foresight, yes?
