Congratulations to @mrforcellati for winning the Colbert Prize at #SVP2022! Meghan was one of our first participants in 2017, taking a chance on a young organization and digging up dinosaurs with us. Now, she's conducting groundbreaking research and winning awards! Way to go!

Thank you to Allen Hall for sponsoring a field jacket! The work we do wouldn't be possible without the help of our friends, participants, and donors. Science rocks!

A new analysis of a beaver anklebone fossil found in Montana suggests the evolution of semi-aquatic beavers may have occurred at least 7 million years earlier than previously thought, and happened in North America rather than Eurasia. sciencedaily.com/releases/2022/…

Supergiant dinosaurs through time. The reign of supergiants extended from the Oxfordian to the Maastrichtian, almost 100 million years. During that time, different families of sauropods- and only sauropods- evolved supergiants of 30, 40, 50 or more tons.

Dawn in Late Jurassic North America. A pair of huge Barosaurus lentus wake up as a large flock of the anurognathid pterosaur Mesadactylus return to the trees to rest during the daytime. Sketch
