It's apparently also the 60th anniversary of Gamera! If I'd been paying attention I would've done a new piece but enjoy this one from a couple years ago.

Did you know. That the meme-explosion that was the wooden model of Sacabambaspis (an Ordovician jawless fish) held at a Museum in Helsinki, was created by a pioneering Estonian fish paleontologist and palaeoartist, Elga Mark-Kurik. 🧵

I’m pretty excited for Prehistoric planet: Ice Age. So I decided to draw a Woolly Mammoth! (Mammuthus primigenius). It’s far from perfect, but I’m pretty happy with how it turned out! #iceage #mammoth #prehistory #prehistoriceplanet

This hatchling encounters a fully grown Tyrannosaurus rex on a winter morning - 12 metres long and 8 tonnes. The little one will never attain such colossal stature - he has a gloriously different destiny ahead of him.

With Nanotyrannus now being valid, clearly the next Pokemon generation should introduce a smaller, more nimble regional form of Tyrantrum

My latest for @nytimes.com! For 40 years, paleontologists have grappled over whether a small tyrannosaur — named Nanotyrannus — was its own animal, or simply a teenage T.rex. The debate has been ... contentious. Which is why it's so fun to finally be able to say this:

Folks? Nanotyrannus is real.

Another absolutely spectacular entry in David James Armsby’s incredible “Dinosauria” short film series. This might mark the first time Scutellosaurus has a prominent role in a work of dinosaur media, and it makes for a very memorable debut.

New look for Edmontosaurus annectens based on new mummy specimens. They had a head comb (you're no longer the only fancy one, regalis!) and a fleshy sail/crest thing going along the neck and back
