It's baaack! New study in #PLOSONE by Dr. Ryuji Takasaki and team finds the most common Arctic hadrosaur from Alaska is Edmontosaurus, not something else. This study opens up so many interesting paleobiological questions about this keystone dinosaur.

#FossilFriday on a Wednesday. More from the new Bradbury Stamm Construction Ancient Life Hall. Dracopristis, the model reconstruction and the skeleton. Wait! 🦈 are cartilaginous, their skeletons don’t usually fossilize! Our Dracopristis didn’t get the memo. Opens Feb 15!

#FossilFriday About an hour from Albuquerque is the famous Seismosaurus/Diplodocus site in the Ojito Wilderness where one of our iconic dinosaurs was found. After 2 years @NMMNHS_Paleo I finally made the trip. New Mexico is awesome! #dinosaurs

Far NW Alaska dinosaurs in Discover Magazine! The science is here: A 100 Ma ecosystem with crazy biodiversity: dinosaur tracks, plants & more. We walked the actual woodland the dinosaurs did! Cool stuff in an ancient climate like modern Miami, Florida.
