Nanotyrannus is real.
For years I’ve considered many mid-sized gracile tyrannosaurs to be juvenile T. rex.
But I was wrong. This stunning new skeleton of a mature long-armed small tyrannosaur is clearly a different species.
Isn’t science fun?!

Researchers discover new tyrannosaur species in ‘duelling dinosaurs’ fossil

Today's bombshell in @nature.com by Lindsay Zanno & James Napoli @jgn-paleo.bsky.social (bit.ly/4qBE6ng) shows that putative juvvy T. rex fossils actually are Nanotyrannus. I reviewed the manuscript, so Nature invited me to write the News & Views commentary. Free link: rdcu.be/eNv94 🦖

nice shoutout in this cutscene to the massive "she puts on her jacket" 3d-animation flex from the announcement trailer for Intergalactic: the Heretic Prophet ( psst @clairecarre.bsky.social )
Been laughing all morning about this 28 min unskippable cutscene that Baby Steps traps players in after they try to skip 30 cutscenes. The fact the button presses get harder the more you skip and then the banter & how it's done is so funny. Flawless exectution of the bit. youtu.be/mQahQACsvPU?...

Therizinosaurs are, without a doubt, some of the most interesting groups of theropod dinosaurs
Here you have a selection of a few species that I reconstructed for the Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum in Japan for their 25th Anniversary Special Exhibition

Introducing a crazy new look for Spicomellus, based on new osteoderms unlike anything we've ever seen before. I was brought in to produce a life reconstruction based on the new material, published today in Nature by Maidment et al:
Hi all, me, @richardjbutler.bsky.social and the amazing UK-US-Moroccan team are delighted to announce that.. we have a new specimen of Spicomellus AND IT'S WAY WEIRDER AND WAY COOLER THAN WE EVER IMAGINED!!

Crab-like creatures are famed for having evolved five times in evolutionary history. But anteaters have evolved at least 12 times--in half the evolutionary span. Cool story by @jakebuehler.bsky.social for @science.org
‘Things keep evolving into anteaters.’ Odd animals arose at least 12 separate times
Findings speak to the dramatic impact ants and termites can have on mammalian evolution

Alright. In my next project I'm going to have separate point & vector types, as they should be. We have this at work in our C++ engine and I can't go back. This guards against things like accidentally adding together two Vector3's that represent points. #GameDev #MadeWithUnity

Our team has spent years pouring ourselves into this.
Some of the creatures I designed are among the best of my career, if I may say so. I have even been able to work a little with the lore team. I cant wait to share it.

Why is my book taking so long to finish? Well, one of many reasons are Aetosaurs! They are very complicated to reconstruct AND my book has a lot of them! 😅 But Aetosaurs are awesome!
Aetosaurs are pseudosuchians, and thus related to modern crocodilians

Lydon: fossil plants sorta get representation in #JurassicPark as Sattler does discuss plant blindness... but she's a bit weird in the film, not really a palaeobotanist. Some game projects do give fair coverage to plants!
