Today's bombshell in @nature.com by Lindsay Zanno & James Napoli @jgn-paleo.bsky.social (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 🦖

Keep an eye on the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology YouTube channel in 2025. I'm set to lead the committee that controls it and we have some *plans*!

In the meantime, I'll always recommend folks check out the wonderful work being done by @skeletoncrewpaleo.bsky.social.

There's a @skeletoncrewpaleo.bsky.social episode where they talk about how researchers said Pachycephalosaurs couldn't have butted heads because they would have gotten brain injuries all the time, until they realized the animals doing it today do it *despite* getting brain injuries all the time.
