Prompt: Write a list of common names for extinct and prehistoric animals that don't have them (unlike some including Smilodon fatalis, which is known as the "saber-toothed cat", or Mammuthus primigenius, which is known as the "woolly mammoth", or even the recently extinct Raphus cucullatus, which is known as the "dodo"). For example, Tyrannosaurus rex could be known as the "king tyrant". However, do not use the name meanings for their scientific names (for example, do not use "tyrant lizard king" for Tyrannosaurus rex, and instead just name it as if it were a modern living animal, similarly to modern animals like, for example, lions and African bush elephants). Also note that these common names have to be realistic (for example, do not use "ancient whale" nor "king lizard" for Basilosaurus (especially the latter (being "king lizard") since Basilosaurus was a whale and not a reptile) and instead call it "serpentine whale" or "giant serpent whale") and the common names being written as if done by a zoologist or biologist, rather than a paleontologist.
