The Dimetrodon was a predatory synapsid ('mammal-like reptile') that flourished during the Permian Period, living between
280-265 million years ago. It was more closely related to mammals than to true reptiles such as lizards.
Dimetrodon was not a dinosaur, despite being popularly grouped with them. Rather, it is classified as a pelycosaur.
Fossils of Dimetrodon have been found in North America and Europe.
