Happy #FossilFriday ! A painting I did of #Oryctodromeus. Support the world's only known burrowing dino in becoming the #Idaho State #dinosaur! FB page: https://t.co/hDaRzhIVa3
So many of you were correct! For #FossilFriday here is my reconstruction of Sinosaurus triassicus, a tetanuran theropod part of the Early Jurassic (Hettangian) fauna of the Lower Lufeng Formation, China. It was a medium-sized (approx. 5.5 m long) taxon #paleoart #dinosaurs
A section through the snout of arguably the cutest little animal to ever go extinct, Diictodon! These tusked, beaked, pug-sized critters from the Permian period belonged to the Synapsida (the group that also includes mammals). #FossilFriday
Happy #FossilFriday! Meet Mansourasaurus, an important new sauropod from the end of the Age of Dinosaurs in Egypt, and a discovery supported by funding from the @JurassicFDN! Read all about it here: https://t.co/jw1XnhqLWt

Some well preserved ammonites and one unknown animal(fourth picture) from Moscow State University and Metro(first picture) probably with inprint of living animal, but it can be common apopheny. Third one is 25 centimeters #FossilFriday #ammonites
A dinosaur head. CARVED OUT OF A WATERMELON!!! Freakin' amazing art by Valeriano Fatica!!! #FossilFriday https://t.co/PHSbbQiLPS
#FossilFriday Panthera blytheae is a fossil relative of the snow leopard (Panthera uncia) found in Tibet. Reconstruction by @MAntonPaleoart https://t.co/2KgFJx5xk6
#FossilFriday Before dinosaurs there were dinosauromorphs (although some remained living alongside dinosaurs for a while). These are most of the species that will appear in my book #paleoart
Today’s warmup sketch, Patriofelis, a oxyaenid creodont from Eocene North America. Suggested by @Laelaps #paleoart #FossilFriday #mammals
A series of plesiosaur #paleoart for #FossilFriday: Jurassic marine species Attenborosaurus and Plesiosaurus, and the coastal/freshwater adapted Leptocleidus. It's very cool to think some plesiosaurs would be visible in rivers, lakes and estuaries.
For #fossilfriday: Amazing specimen of two Seymouria (Permian amphibians) from the Bromacker quarry in Germany. I recently had the opportunity to visit the collections where these guys were stored, and they are just one example of many cool fossils that were found at the quarry.
The skull of Diabloceratops eatoni from Grand Staircase - Escalante National Monument, a region that needs to be protected @realDonaldTrump #FossilFriday #BLMPaleo
The largest land mammal ever was MASSIVE!!! This is the 30 million year old Paraceratherium! (Image left H. Osborn: Right via Wiki) #FossilFriday
Deinonychus killing claw and portion of skull with teeth. The real inspiration for the 'raptors' in #JurassicPark With excellent reconstruction (with feathers) by @paleofan #FossilFriday
Material at the Yale Peabody Museum.
#FossilFriday + #BlackFriday = Black Fossil? Meet the 'Black skull' KNM-WT 17000 Paranthropus aethiopicus from West Turkana, Kenya (got dark due to fossilization in a manganese-rich soil). Original (photo by Robert I.M. Campbell) & reconstruction (Paul Szpak).
New blog post for #FossilFriday: Can we predict the horn shapes of fossil animals? Perhaps, with enough data, we have more insight on horn sheath shape than we realised. Stars Triceratops, because it's a post about horns. Also features new #paleoart!

#FossilFriday Here's a neanderthal skull fragment trawled from the bottom of the north sea https://t.co/TSGnga7Aoe
#FossilFriday WIP. My take on the basal abelisaur Eoabelisaurus mefi from the Cañadon Asfalto Formation - Middle Jurassic (Oxfordian) Argentina 🇦🇷. Already looking VERY abelisaurid! Look at that head! #paleoart #dinosaurs
