Published a new blog post! To celebrate the 200th anniversary of #Megalosaurus, I decided to write about it a bit. extinct-and-extant.blogspot.com/2024/02/megalo…

Sad news to report for in the world of paleontology. It sounds like the university of Carthage is moving forward with its plan to gut its paleo program. The eventual home of the collection is up in the air. Really sucks to see stuff like this

Spread this around! I'm Vyhr Yglika, 21, creating paleoart since 13! This is my latest piece - Albertosaurus A3 size with pencils! With this I announce I wish to pursue paleoart professionally - To work with paleontologists and to enrich paleomedia! [email protected] #paleoart

Hard as it is to believe, there was other paleo news yesterday! First, the "Dream Lizard": M.E.P Fonseca et al. 2025. Oneirosaurus caballeroi gen. et sp. nov., un nuevo mosasaurio de Colombia Earth Sciences Research Journal 29(3): 231-247 revistas.unal.edu.co/index.php/esrj…

If it wasn't for museum donors, the Dueling Dinosaurs would be rotting away in a private collection or even destroyed. This fate could befall over 7 million fossil items in NY's Museum of the Earth if they cannot pay their mortgage by the end of the year. priweb.donorsupport.co/page/FUNWALKCL…

Today's bombshell in @Nature by Lindsay Zanno & James Napoli (bit.ly/4qBE6ng) shows that putative juvvy T. rex fossils actually are Nanotyrannus. I reviewed the manuscript, so Nature invited me to write the News & Views commentary. Free link: rdcu.be/eNv94 🦖

Ladies and gentlemen, Nanotyrannus lives. Not only that, but it has 2 species within its genus. Thanks to the work of @ExpeditionLive, @JGN_Paleo, and their team, we have the strongest case for this pygmy tyrant so far. NYT article linked, I’m sure more without a paywall later

It's real. And it's spectacular. Sometimes, one fossil really can change everything you think you know. NEW PAPER (see bottom of thread) AND 🧵

I'm speaking on the exciting new data from eastern Utah pertaining to the J-K dinosaur mass extinction that wipped out the Morrison Dinos at end of the Real Jurassic Park at Clark Planetarium at the Gateway downtown Salt Lake City, Thurs Nov. 13th. eventbrite.com/e/how-fossil-s…

Day 28 of #Croctober, we're racing towards the finish line This is one of my favourite images of Dakosaurus for two reasons Reason 1: it nicely shows just how enormous this animal got Reason 2: it also shows how stupidly tiny its arms were Photo by Sven Sachs ft. Joschua Knüppe

We have lost the pillar of Scottish vertebrate palaeontology, Dugie Ross. The man that found & named Dearc. He made science resonate locally, in his native language, on his native soil, while allowing it to grow globally. He embodied the best of science. Immeasurable loss.
