To celebrate the 85th SVP Meeting 2025, we've assembled an open access collection of landmark JSP vertebrate palaeontology papers.
Next: 'The higher-level phylogeny of Archosauria (Tetrapoda: Diapsida)' by Brusatte et al. buff.ly/Gs8wKDO - a primary division of the vertebrate tree of life #PaleoSky

We love this incredible fact, but it also leads to the realisation that the first dinosaurs emerged in a completely different spiral arm of the galaxy!
Let's try and work this out. Astro-professionals, please shout if we get any of this wrong..

It's Friday, and apparently bluesky is ready for this fun revelation:
Dinosaurs lived on the other side the Galaxy.

Every prior depiction is working against the baseline of the prehistoric monster, archaic avian relic in a world of mammals, evolutionary quirks doomed to extinction. None of that here. These are real, living animals divorced from any sort of attempt to project a narrative onto them. It's beautiful.

Of all the wonderful depictions of Pleistocene life shown in Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age, few can compare with the beauty and realism of these psilopterines. I don't think I'm exaggerating to say this is the first and only time terror birds have been done properly in a documentary.

So, #PrehistoricPlanet #IceAge is out now, and I finally got to watch all the episodes! While we're all getting ready for Thanksgiving dinner, I'm just going to throw my thoughts out there as an amateur paleontologist / digital artist.
To start, no matter what, I still highly recommend it. Go watch!

happy thanksgiving from therizinosaurus, the forbidden turkey 🦃 therizinosaurus was a pot-bellied, 5-tonne herbivore from late cretaceous mongolia, best-known for the scythe-like claws on its hands

Dinosaurs were nearly wiped out 66 million years ago, long before the start of the Quaternary ice age. However, #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge shows that the few surviving dinosaurs (birds) would go on to become highly successful. Let's meet the ice age dinosaurs featured in the series! 🪶🧪

#HappyThanksgiving from WitmerLab! You have your holiday traditions, and we have ours! Yes, we CT scanned our turkey on our best turkey platter. Science has never been so delicious! And like any good dinosaur biologist, I prepared and accessioned the skeleton—OUVC 10789. 🦃🦖

Some anatomical things I noticed and was intrigued by in S3E3:
- This ground sloth walks on the palms of its hands. I knew there were ground sloths like this, just didn’t know this was one.
- Diprotodon’s upper incisor tips seem to be exposed when the mouth is closed.
