Honestly, between being exposed as bing tied to Jeffery Epstein and the Tyrannosaurus ontogny model being invalidated by "Nano", the universe is really trying to destroy Jack Horner's legacy - as it should be.

Remember, this is before Epstein's arrest and conviction. Searching for funding is difficult. I only learned that I was dealing with Nazis by comments made right before they left.....No Nazis T-shirts... I changed my mind right there, about seeking sponsorship of our our highly underfunded research.

Jack Horner in the Epstein File trying to raise money to fund dinosaur research. When I discovered we had rich nazis on our dig in 2008, I dropped them like a rancid turd; ask Don. There will never be a Trumpasaurus with my name attached! @paleontologizing.bsky.social @utahpaleo-ufop.bsky.social

Hmm, sounds like we need a refresher. The issue of whether everyone's favorite long-neck is called Brontosaurus or Apatosaurus (or both) has *nothing* to do with which skull was historically included on museum mounts! 🧵#FossilFriday

Very special #FossilFriday, pleased to announced that we have a new paper out on reconstructing the ecosystem of Dry Mesa Quarry in the Morrison Formation

We used modern ecological techniques to quantity and model the ecosystem

Feel sorry for the baby Sauropods 😞 🦕🦕

A few important distinctions between Ceratosaurus and a sabercat:

1) Ceratosaurus had a whole battery of saber-like teeth. Stress from struggling prey would be more evenly distributed across multiple teeth. This may have given its teeth an advantage when it came to enduring the—

🦖 Big news about a ‘little’ tyrant: new research finds that Nanotyrannus wasn’t a baby T. rex after all!

Through examining the throat bone of the Nanotyrannus, researchers found that while smaller, the species was a fully grown and distinct predator during its time.

I missed #FossilFriday, but the Morrison Formation has spoken!

A special volume of the New Mexico Museum of Natural History & Science Bulletin just dropped, and it is 100% chock-full the latest in Morrison goodies.

Some Didelphodon canines Fran found when we were in Montana for a dig with Dr. Carr in 2021. We return to the field for the first time since to hunt for dinosaurs again this summer through the Carnegie. #FossilFriday

A dinosaur tooth of an indeterminate sauropod, likely a titanosauriform from the Irhazer Group in the Agadez Region of Niger. I'm not entirely sure what it is, but the robust torpedo shaped morphology would suggest a macronarian of some kind. #FossilFriday
