A few months ago, I got to chat to Josh Luke Davis 🏳️🌈 about two topics very dear to my heart: Africa and palaeontology. 🌍🦕 Thank you Josh and Nizar Ibrahim, PhD for highlighting some of the work from South Africa, and the rest of the continent. 💚⛏️🇿🇦 nhm.ac.uk/discover/a-his…

It's #FossilFriday! This week, we had Postdoctoral Fellow Ryuji Takasaki from U of T Palaeontology visiting our Paleontology Collections and Galleries comparing Hadrosaur dinosaurs from North America. He measured, photographed, and surface scanned our Gryposaurus monumentensis skull.


Happy #FossilFriday! Duckbilled #dinosaurs were diverse #Cretaceous plant-eaters. Recently, Dr. Ryuji Takasaki visited from U of T Palaeontology to study duckbills, including #Brachylophosaurus. This dinosaur’s name translates to “short-crested lizard” for the small crest on its head.










One of our main goals for #SADP2024 is to collect horned dinosaurs from lower Belly River Group. This is a partial skull excavated w Greg Funston & Ryuji Takasaki 高崎竜司 from base of Oldman Fm.





Fantastic talk by Tom Dudgeon & David Evans of Royal Ontario Museum on hadrosaur feeding at #2024SVP.
