I'm pretty confident that certain online people are going to be cheering about how they were right all along on Nanotyrannus. Their take will be that they were right all along and their arguments, based on private specimens of uncertain provenance, photos of things without scale bars, and ideas...

New dates on fossils from New Mexico reveal a community of dinosaurs that were thriving right before the asteroid strike, including 80-foot-long, 30-ton giants like Alamosaurus. I’ll tell you more in my latest for NatGeo. 🧪
New evidence reveals dinosaurs were thriving right up to the moment the asteroid hit
Newly dated fossils from New Mexico challenge the idea that dinosaurs were in decline—and suggest instead they had formed flourishing communities.

Huge congrats to my colleagues for getting the sauropod volume funded!! BUT they have just 3 more days to reach their stretch goal to fund paleoart!! 146$ is all they need. This volume will likely describe several new species so paleoart is a big must! experiment.com/projects/rea...
Reassessing the evolutionary family tree and biogeography of the iconic sauropod group Diplodocoidea
We are working on a special open-access volume dedicated to the famed diplodocoid sauropods (like Diplodocus). We aim to publish several papers describing their anatomy, osteology, evolutionary relati...

Check out this awesome video that Tom Fishenden captured for us of DinoCon 2025!
It was an absolute blast and we will see you all again in 2026! (updates still to come!)

Shoutout to certain dinocon ppl for getting me to appreciate (and perhaps become mildly obsessed with) sauropods. Like, what the hell. What cool, weirdass giant critters they were!
