I just finished a day near Georgenthal and Tambach-Dietharz, Thuringia, Germany where the locals are very proud of the Dimetrodon and other early Permian fossils we've excavated there over the years. They love our fossils, and we love the local bratwurst!

Happy #FossilFriday ! This image is to celebrate the (almost) 25th anniversary of when the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology meeting was in Bozeman, MT in 2001. My (then) young son Darwin's first SVP, here posed under the foot of MOR 555, the T. rex "Big Mike".

Happy Fossil Friday. Cast of the skull of Dimetrodon, possibly the most iconic of all synapsids! #svp #svppresident

Happy fossil Friday! Here - Seymouria sanjuanenesis from the Early Permian Bromacker locality of Germany. Easily the best specimen(s) of this genus ever found. #SocietyofVertebratePaleontology #SVP

Seen as I drive through SE Utah: the iconic Mexican Hat Rock - a Late Paleozoic rock formation where we've found bits of pelycosaurs - early members of the lineage leading to mammals. #SocietyofVertebratePaleontology #SVP

Happy fossil Friday everyone! Yesterday I got to visit with the staff at Petrified Forest National Park. PFNP is one of the great underrated gems of the US National Park system and the crew there is doing a remarkable job! #SocietyofVertebratePaleontology #SVP #VertebratePaleontology #FossilFriday
