Hypothetical question for you: what if frogs ruled the Earth? Not just terms in terms of numbers… but in terms of their position in the ecosystem.
Amphiterra is a speculative biology project by the talented artist and writer Roxy Valdez, which imagines the incredible and surreal forms frogs might achieve if given the perfect environment to evolve. While the world of Amphiterra often looks like an alien planet, the artist imagines it’s actually an alternate timeline of Earth, where subtly different climatic conditions led to early amphibians outcompeting the first dinosaurs and protomammals.
What creatures will develop and thrive in this drastically different history? Let’s leap back 252 million years, and begin our tour through the timeline of Amphiterra...
