  1. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🦴🐟 A #fossil from #Australia’s #Cretaceous #Eromanga Sea captured a rare three-tier predator interaction: a #pterosaur eaten by an #ichthyosaur, then both consumed by a giant #pliosaur called '#Kronosaurus queenslandicus.'

    Researchers used #neutron #tomography to identify pterosaur jawbones in the ichthyosaur’s fossilized stomach alongside crushing bite marks from the larger #predator.

  2. Delve into the history and inspiration behind the 1950s Marx Kronosaurus plastic toy: dinotoyblog.com/kronosaurus-ma

    This is one of the most insightful and thorough reviews to date on the @dinotoyblog, and also the final Marx figure to be checked off the reviewer's to-do list.

    N.B. Controversially, the skeleton may not even be Kronosaurus (see, Eiectus).
