Do NOT eat fossils… unless they're delicious! 🦑🎂 This "ammo-bite" was part of a fantastic cake made by the awesome Dinkydoodle. Dawn will unveil her latest dinosaur cake *tomorrow* at the screening of WHY DINOSAURS? in Sheffield! 🎥🦖 #FossilFriday

Ice Age Dog Skull (11,000 years old) 🐺➡️🐶 Wolves once competed with humans for food—until some adapted, eating scraps & forming bonds. Over time, they evolved into the dogs we love today! #fossil #wolf #dog #science #prehistoric

Dapedium – A Jurassic Survivor 🦴🐟 This 230–160 million-year-old fossil from Whitby, UK is the only complete specimen of its kind. With armor-like scales for protection & a powerful jaw for crushing mollusks, it thrived in the Jurassic seas. #fossil #fish #prehistoric #sea

Barasaurus isn’t quite a reptile or amphibian—it’s the evolutionary bridge between them! This Late Permian fossil from Madagascar is sometimes even preserved with soft tissue intact. Evolution in action! #fossil #evolution #naturalhistory #prehistoric #science

Ichthyosaurus communis was a fast Jurassic swimmer with sharp features. Some fossils even show stomach contents! Now on display in our gallery. #fossil #museum #prehistoric #marine #icthyosaurus

Shark tooth from a fast Cretaceous predator. Shark skull with two holes that look like eyes — but they were nostrils! Both fossils are over 100 million years old and tell stories from Earth’s ancient oceans. #fossil #paleontology #sharks #prehistoric
