@euphanerops.bsky.socialFan of weird end-Permian-surviving fossil sharks? Check out our preprint describing the first endoskeletal fossils of Carnian jalodontiform Keuperodus brodiei. #FossilFriday
Led by Ryan Tokeley (no bsky), based on his great masters project work @nitroshutter.bsky.social
@bobthebird.bsky.socialFor #FossilFriday I would like to offer this forgery which totally had me fooled for about 3 seconds 😄
Who does that!?

@fossildetective.bsky.socialFinally getting around to studying some old specimens for the first time this #FossilFriday. These eurypterids were discovered in the 1960s and almost certainly represent new species. Discoveries such as this really highlight the importance of museum collections as records of life on our planet. 🧪⚒️
@stevebrusatte.bsky.socialThe best #fossilfriday of the year: welcoming our new palaeontology & geobiology Masters cohort at the University of Edinburgh!
13 students from five countries, studying dinosaurs, mammals, marine reptiles, corals, plants, and much more!
@houdzgeorge.bsky.socialGondwanan royalty for today’s #FossilFriday
Dinodontosaurus tener from Brazil, Dinodontosaurus brevirostris from Argentina, and Dinodontosaurus isiyavamanda from Tanzania
They probably didn’t think of themselves as royalty tbf, just very hungry

@earthsciweek.bsky.socialDid you know that many #Trex #fossils show evidence of parasite-driven diseases & bite marks from members of their own species? 🦖🦠🤯

@anatrecord.bsky.socialHappy #FossilFriday! New fossil discoveries are rewriting the early history of owls. More than 350 Pleistocene bones provide the first detailed view of Athene vallgornerensis, revealing a variable anatomy and a more arboreal lifestyle than modern owls.

@saveredlandlibr.bsky.socialShared for #FossilFriday
From today’s Bristol Post, an article on Dorothea Bate ( 1878-1951 ) a Welsh palaeontologist and pioneer of archaeozoology. Her life's work was to find fossils of recently extinct mammals with a view to understanding how and why giant and dwarf forms evolved.

@oz-of-the-ancients.bsky.socialLoving this giant model of the Homo antecessor skull - you can walk inside!
The original was found in the Atapuerca caves nearby, thought to be ~1 million years old!
