During millions of years South America was a island containing. The South American fauna was different from the one that existed in the rest of the world. Here the birds and the reptiles were giant and the mammals are stranges. These animals lived between 20 and 5 million years ago.

Awesome 
Are you planing to do more like this for other parts of the world and different time periods?

Good art but Macrauchenia isn't a camel.
Amazing
Great image, I absolutely love your reconstruction of Argentavis!
Some really awesome fauna we have here.
where's Megapiranha?
In the water with the other non-included animals
Yet you include Purrusaurus?
it can walk out of water no?
But it spends 90% of its life underwater.
Hey,nice work! I love it
Really cool. Are these in scale?
Yes it is
LOL I didn't notice that the squares had a metric scale.
Awesome work on the animals. I especially love the purussaurus.
I belive the sebecosuichian is a Langstonia huilensis, no?
thylacosmilus es plantigrado en sus patas traseras...extraño animal...interesante trabajo...
amazing!
really good drawing
it is good to learn something new

Sebecosuchia must be a very recent or very discovery because there's no wikipedia article on him yet. But still, with legs like a predatory savanna cat, it's got to be the coolest looking crocodilomorph I've ever seen in my life. It's like a perfect cross between a croc and a jaguar.
Wow these are great! They remind me of this future evolution project I have floating around my head, I wish I could draw them like these so much!
Orales, muy bueno!!! 
Como le hiciste para hacerlo?

Muchas gracias.....hise cada dibujo por separado y luego los uni a escala en el Photoshop.... un trabajo largo, pero no tan complicado.
South America was a fascinating continent back in the day. Not that it still isn't, but it's different now.
