** Extinct non-human primates are represented by ''Gigantopithecus'' (closely related to the orangutan and occasionally cited as a possible ancestor of BigfootSasquatchAndYeti) and occasionally generic primitive primates (typically based on adapiforms or plesiadapiforms). Early human-relatives are usually come in two variants, the more primitive [[FrazettaMan ape-man]] that can represent anything from ''Australopithecus'' to ''Homo erectus'', and the [[AllCavemenWereNeanderthals Neanderthal]]. Despite them dying out less than 2,000 years ago, don't expect to see megafaunal lemurs like the gorilla-sized Archaeoindris or the strange-looking "koala lemur" Megaladapis in non-educational media, and even in paleodocumentaries they're rarely featured.

* Good luck trying to find any non-therian (Theria is the group of mammals that includes placentals and marsupials) mammaliaforms outside of the still-living monotremes. Dinosaurs coexisted with a number of groups over the course of the Mesozoic, including morganucodonts, docodonts, multituberculates, gondwanatheres, eutriconodonts, and the [[https://i.imgur.com/oqNhopg.png large]] herbivorous mesungulatids; and a few of these now-extinct clades became quite successful in the early Cenozoic. Only in a handful of educational works, such as ''Series/DinosaurRevolution'' and ''Western Animation/DinosaurTrain'', are these forms specifically acknowledged.

* Gastropods: one snail, one slug. Most of the time, they are depicted as terrestrial species, nudibranches (sea slugs) are rarely ever shown, as with aquatic snails like whelks and periwinkles, conches are just "seashells", and then there's the venomous cone snail...
