A very nice paper with wonderful fossils. Some of the specimens (most of ?) are hosted in our collections ;) Quercy specimens have a crazy preservation (3D mummified toad and salamander with last meal in the belly) !!!

I was today years old when I learned that these 4 pokemon, who you get by taking fossils and resurrecting them in a certain order, are based on the real practice of paleontologists putting parts of different dinosaurs together to one-up each other in discovering new species.

The Gem Fossil, Galea Fossil, and Tail Fossil. They are the first trio of fossils that can be dug up in the Agrios Region! What prehistoric creatures do you think could be revived from these?

I'm going to share a few ammonoid artworks from my archives for Ammonites were once so plentiful in ancient seas that they're used as index fossils, but are now extinct.
