It is December, it's quarter past the 3rd Corana wave and I am here to celebrate the things I got to see in Museums this year while we are close to another lockdown.

Dino Fact!

Spinophorosaurus (Spine-bearing Lizard) is a sauropod from Middle Jurassic Africa! It had spikes at the end of its tail, similar to the thagomizers stegosaurs had! It might've used its tail spikes for defense, but it's unclear for now!

Art by Zealandiatherium!

2eme remarque: c'est difficile de se baser sur des ratios patte avant/patte arrière quand justement il manque une bonne partie des pattes avant (c'est le cas pour Spinophorosaurus)! Alors oui on peut faire des approximations avec des espèces proches, mais c'est moins bien! 11/15

Another brilliant kinematics paper by et al! Digitally assembling shows how wedge shaped sacral and posterior dorsal verts & elongate forelimbs aided in more vertical posturing and higher browsing. Great paper!

Totally Forgot to share these highlights from the last Akmoniston, Albertonykus, Nimbadon, Spinophorosaurus. Next weekend we will have our Christmas streams! Expect polar and ice age animals, Christmas music discussions of the papers that where published this week!
