Certainly a chordate, autistic with ADHD, trying to be a paleontologist and failing at society.

Got informed about some sad news. Garfield Minott, a prolific dinosaur modeller, special effects and palaeoartist, recognised for contributions to the description of dinosaur binocular vision, passed away at age of 58.

Did you know. That the meme-explosion that was the wooden model of Sacabambaspis (an Ordovician jawless fish) held at a Museum in Helsinki, was created by a pioneering Estonian fish paleontologist and palaeoartist, Elga Mark-Kurik. 🧵

Uma nova espécie de pterossauro do Araripe, encontrada dentro de um vômito fossilizado de dinossauro 🤍. A natureza é linda! Kkk

Seja bem-vindo, Bakiribu waridza!

Acesse o artigo: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Digital paleoart scene showing two pterosaurs with long, comb-like teeth standing in shallow water, using their jaws to filter food. Several similar pterosaurs fly in the background and a large theropod dinosaur resembling Irritator walks along the shore chasing them. The landscape is semi-arid with distant mountains under a cloudy sky. Photographs and interpretative drawings of a fossil regurgitalite from the Romualdo Formation (Araripe Basin). Panels A and B show part and counterpart of an oval limestone concretion containing disarticulated and partially digested remains of pterosaur bones and fish. Panels C and D are line drawings highlighting bone clusters and digestive residue, illustrating the internal organization of the regurgitated mass.

Let me attempt to articulate something. As a former participant in the "teenage nerds talk about dinosaurs online" scene, I think some of us who follow paleontology as adults or do dinosaur stuff professionally care too much about the specifics of what's being discussed there. (cont'd)

Ce type de réaction dit absolument tout.

- « Nous », les puissants, ne pouvons tolérer d'aller en prison (& d'être soumis à la loi commune)

- Et donc il y a « eux », les « animaux », qui peuvent y aller.

Ce n'est pas anecdotique : C'est la clef des politiques pénales de ces dernières décennies.

Here's a T. Rex bored to death trying to bite their own tail. My partner asked me to animate it in stop motion, after she watched a video about the very important topic of "could T. Rex chew its own tail like a dog". The puppet is still a work in progress 🦖

For #Arachtober, here is a spider that's not a spider. It's Petrophila jaliscalis, a jumping-spider-mimicking moth - see the face-on spider pattern, with orange legs and sparkly dark eyes? I love finding these - I think they breed in my small goldfish pond, because the caterpillars are aquatic. 🌿🐙
A macro photo of a moth, seen from the side, on brown bark. The moth has white wings with lots of dark speckles, and a pattern of four orange vertical stripes, plus a row of dark spots above, with reflective scales in the centers. The effect creates a pattern that looks like a jumping spider seen face-on; the orange stripes mimic legs, and the dark spots mimic a jumping spider's row of large eyes.
