🚨🎲TONIGHT AT *9* EASTERN🦖🚨 Join the Crew for dinos, discussion and some *special announcements* LIVE on YouTube tonight!!!
Happy #FossilFriday! This certified Little Guy™ is Compsognathus, a compsognathid (!) coelurosaur dinosaur from the Late Jurassic of Europe. This one was fossilized for his crime of herpetocide (murdering an innocent lizard; see police sketch, lower right).
Happy #FossilFriday! Giganotosaurus is known from the Late Cretaceous of Argentina. It is one of the largest predatory animals to have ever lived (on land!), with some estimates of body length up to 43 feet/13 m.
Our Etsy shop will have the remainder of our enamel pins - these are VERY LIMITED and we have no immediate plans to order more, so, get them while they're hot! Link is now up on our Linktree!
Hi everyone! We have not one but TWO special announcements today: First, a reminder that we are streaming TONIGHT at 8:30pm ET to celebrate ONE MILLION views! We'll be playing Paleo Pines to check out the new Sarcosuchus friends!! Second........we are opening an Etsy shop!!
Happy #FossilFriday! Did you know? The purpose of the sail of Ouranosaurus is unknown.
Happy #FossilFriday! Did you know how dumb a Corythosaurus looks from the front? Now you do!
Happy #FossilFriday! Tsintaosaurus is a lambeosaurine hadrosaur from the Late Cretaceous of China. The most obvious and significant change in our understanding and depiction of its life appearance in recent years is the possibility of a hoof-life nail on its forefeet.
