Happy Fossil Friday! This fossil is the feeding appendage of Anomalocaris canadensis. When originally discovered it was thought to be the headless body of a shrimp, but was later discovered to be part of one of the Middle Cambrian’s largest predators.
This fossil was found at the Mt. Stephen trilobite beds in Yoho National Park. This site features spectacular soft-body preservation and an enormous quantity of trilobites.

Anomalocaris Carri (by From the Shale Plushies)
The Canadian Burgess Shale is one of the most important fossil deposits in the world due to the exceptional preservation of its fossils. Located within the Stephen Formation in British Columbia, it was deposited during the middle of the Cambrian period (or the Miaolingian, about 508 Ma). It was once home to a number of strange creatures including many types of arthropods, sponges, worms, […]

So, it appears my wife got our cat an oversized, plush model of Radiodont teeth.

Paleontologists discover 506-million-year-old predator https://phys.org/news/2025-05-paleontologists-million-year-predator.html
Early evolvability in arthropod tagmosis exemplified by a new radiodont from the #BurgessShale https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rsos.242122
"Mosura fentoni was about the size of an index finger and had 3 eyes, spiny jointed claws, a circular mouth lined with teeth and a body with swimming flaps along its sides. These traits show it to be part of an #extinct group known as the #radiodonts, which also included the famous #Anomalocaris"

This will be a challenge to the fediverse connecting abilities: I need to make a costume of a #trilobite and of #Anomalocaris. I am looking for any help: someone has made one already and is happy to share the details, a costume designed willing to take up the challenge, a handwork hobbyist with a knack for sewing/cardboard magic who always want to launch their skills onto a bigger stage. We are making a #science show for kids as part of my #ERC project MindTheGap and we will be explaining #evolution using #fossils. #Cambrian fossils 😄 If you have any hints, contacts, old costumes, please get in touch. We are located in NL so we probably cannot commission costumes from overseas (too much risk of delay due to customs). #Outreach #ScienceCommunication #paleontology

I made a thing. My wife is a paleo-nerd, and this is getting some laughs in the group chat. That it rhymes with Kamala Harris is just icing on the cake... #anomalocaris #paleoart #DNC #oprah #memes

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...
In 2013 I built 23 scale and life-size models for MUSE Science Museum, in Trento, Italy. Here's Anomalocaris, which you might have seen in books and online credited to someone else – but it's one of mine!

My art in 2023 (6/12)
June: Anomalocaris, Dragon of the Cambrian. The realisation that most Cambrian creatures were tiny gave me the idea of a whole bunch of them hiding from a 40 cm long Anomalocaris while in positions reminiscent of a D&D party facing off against a dragon.

Presenting: THE #CAMBRIANSMACKDOWN! A silly Tumblr style bracket. I will create a series of polls to determine which screwy looking Cambrian era critter is perceived as the coolest on Mastodon!
Polls will start at 7 days long.
Depending on how well-received this is, the polls may shorten in length.
Polls coming soon. Enjoy. This thread will be for bracket updates rather than the polls.

Another idea: Bracket (tumblr style) of weird #Cambrian explosion critters such as #Anomalocaris, #Opabinia, #Amplectobelua, #Peytoia, #Wiwaxia, #Hallucigenia, etc.

In the "everything you know is wrong" category, here's breaking news about anomalocarids from a recent study:
Also, ancient vampire squid.

Apex #predator of the #Cambrian likely sought soft over crunchy prey https://phys.org/news/2023-07-apex-predator-cambrian-sought-soft.html
Raptorial appendages of the Cambrian apex predator #Anomalocaris canadensis are built for soft prey and speed https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rspb.2023.0638
"One of the largest #animals to live during the Cambrian, it was probably agile and fast, darting after soft prey in the open water rather than pursuing hard-shelled creatures on the ocean floor."

Urzeiträuber mochte sein Essen weich. Anomalocaris knackte vor 500 Millionen Jahren doch keine Trilobitenschalen. #Anomalocaris #Kambrium #Fossil #Evolution #Palaeontologie

Mighty #Anomalocaris stirs, spreading dust and terror throughout the #Cambrian sea. #Opabinia, #Hallucigenia, #Pikaia, #Canadia, #Burgessia, #Marella, and #Elrathia can only hope the rocks and ridges they cover behind will hide them.
Inspired by a display at the Naturkunde Museum Stuttgart that perfectly showed off the difference in size between Cambrian critters. At 40 cm, Anomalocaris was a leviathan.

Anomalocaris (by Yowie)
Review and photos by Faelrin, edited by Suspsy
For my first review, I will be reviewing the Yowie Anomalocaris. Anomalocaris was one of the largest creatures of its time, growing up to around 1 meter long (or 3.2 feet), and is one of the many species preserved in the Burgess Shale. It lived during the Cambrian Period, and some of its contemporaries included creatures like trilobites, worms, […]
