  1. The fearsome pink thunder lizard that guards my brother’s front porch. Apparently, it was guarding the snow pile until that melted. I would have thought that snow would cause mass extinction, thunder lizards being ectothermic and all, but I have very little experience with prehistoric megafauna. Then again, if they had feathers and were endothermic, they could have been quite cozy. I believe this calls for More Science.

  10. Apatosaurus (Haolonggood)

    Review by Paleo Flo, edited by DinoToyBlog.

    When it comes to dinosaur figures and models we are actually living in some kind of wonderland. There are so many companies which all produce wonderful offerings of the animals from deep time. As a dinosaur enthusiast you have the trouble of choosing. In recent years two companies became the greatest players in this game: PNSO and Haolonggood. While […]

  13. This weeks #Lego #FossilFriday is #Apatosaurus.

    Apatosaurus was originally found by Arthur Lakes and Henry C Beckwith in spring 1877, in Morrison. They contacted Othniel Charles Marsh, and after sending him some of the fossils, he named the species Apatosaurus.

    Two years later March discovered a larger, more complete specimen and called it Brontosaurus. This was later synonymized to Apatosaurus.

    Its still debated if Brontosaurus is its own species or just Apatosaurus.

  22. Open access article, and the "non-technical summary" section near the beginning gives an overview everyone can understand. 🧪🦖

    cambridge.org/core/journals/jo

    Very short version: #Troodon was considered a valid #genus for well over a century, until it was merged with #Stenonychosaurus about a decade ago, and due to specimen quality Stenonychosaurus took priority. Now careful examination indicates Troodon is a valid genus again.

    This process is familiar from other famous #dinosaur genera, most notably #Brontosaurus and #Apatosaurus. Even *living* animals are hard to classify a lot of the time; nothing between #kingdom and #species is really set in stone. The tension between "#lumpers" and "#splitters" never ends.

    Troodon is special. Maybe it was intelligent, in a way we'd recognize as such, and maybe it wasn't. But it was almost surely *smart*, and quite possibly social, and likely an omnivore. Does that remind you of anyone?

    Maybe I'm fooling myself, when I feel a kinship across deep time. And maybe I'm not.

  26. terrible lizards, by @dave_hone and @iszi , has released a wonderful interview with Dr. Rebecca Hunt-Foster, paleontologist and curator at the US Dinosaur National Monument.

    @dantheclamman , there are freshwater clam fossils in in the quarry with all those dinosaurs, but there are apparently no fish fossils! What the heck!

  31. Apatosaurus (1992)(Dor Mei, UKRD)

    Other reviewers seem to have stopped covering UKRD figures years ago, but there are still a lot of them left to go, so I guess that’s my lot in life. While they may seem like mass-produced dreck to most people, I find them interesting and charming because they often reflect outdated or downright bizarre ideas and vintage palaoart, usually (with some notable exceptions) based on John Sibbick’s […]
