Just got finished printing this life-sized lungfish model as a gift for the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site Museum It's a surprise 🤫 so don't tell SGDS Curator @andrewtracks.bsky.social

#FossilFriday from the Substation Quarry at the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site in SW Utah. Two Anomoepus tracks in a trackway, a nice Grallator, and a theropod vertebra found right at the end of the day.

New theropod tooth today and Handy Excavation is moving in big equipment to get the huge rock pile out of the way. Thanks for all of the amazing support!

Some cool finds today in the Substation Quarry at the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site! This quarry is becoming massive! We're having lots of fun though.

Hi everyone! We have a live stream from the Substation Quarry at the St. St George Dinosaur Discovery Site /Washington County, UT (Natural History) provided by the Prehistoric Museum in Price: www.twitch.tv/prehistoricm...

I have deleted X. I'm tired of this crap!

SGDS Substation Quarry update: met with two contractors today who are going to help out. Jim Poole just uncovered a palaeoniscoid fish. #FossilFriday

This news story released tonight is already having positive results. Three excavation companies have already contacted me. www.stgeorgeutah.com/news/heavy-e...

The St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site is looking for help with funding and crews to excavate an ~1/2 acre of bone beds in the Early #Jurassic (~200 million). We need big excavation equipment. Check out fossils and how you can help in the images attached.

We're looking for help with the excavation of bone beds at the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site in SW Utah. We need heavy excavation equipment to move a large fossil-rich rock pile and in place rock above the bone beds. The City will break ground for an electrical substation in early April.

Thursday is my day in the collection. Today's fossil: the Early Devonian jawless fish Cyrtaspidichthys.

Presenting the #temnospondyl, #Siderops kehli, on display at the Queensland Museum Kurilpa in Brisbane, Australia for this #FossilFriday. It grew up to 2.7 m long & inhabited the rivers & lakes of Australia during the Early #Jurassic. 🧵 1/

Another beautiful phytosaur skull discovered by our SGDS crew in 2020. It's from the lower Church Rock Member of the Chinle Formation from San Juan County, Utah.

For this #FossilFriday, the early #Triassic owenettid Saurodektes kitchingorum from South Africa. This taxon (and other procolophonoids) were some of the only reptilian survivors of the End Permian #Extinction. Was it because they were burrowing? Bonus: There are fossil millipedes (:

As we get closer to the weekend, here’s an important reminder, as we aspire for peace of mind via traces. 🐾 (Graphic design courtesy of @stupond.bsky.social)

A beautiful little skull from the early armoured dinosaur Scelidosaurus. This one is in the Bristol City Museum, and is one that is NOT privately-owned.. (IYKYK)

Amazing science on bird limb functionally! I'm totally not going to harass our pet chickens to watch them rotate their legs at the knee, no sir.

NBMG 14143 (New Brunswick Museum) - Pseudobradypus isp. from Pennsylvanian Grande Anse Formation, southeastern New Brunswick.

Having fun recycling some posts: Pseudoarctolepis sharpi from the middle #Cambrian Pierson Cove Formation, Millard County, #Utah.

Here, we describe Uncus dzaugisi from the Ediacaran of South Australia. This vermiform, non-modular bilaterian was curved to sinuous in shape, and moved through the microbial mat with a distinct sinusoidal pattern.

Okay, I'm recycling some cool fossils, etc.from that other social media group that I will soon dump. rare plant fossil from the Late Triassic of SE Utah found in 2023 (manuscript in prep). Androcycas cf. santuccii only known from PEFO! First occurrence in Utah.

My first post @bsky.app. A large semionotid fish called Lophionotus from the Lower Jurassic Moenave Formation on exhibit at the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site (SGDS) in SW #Utah. We have 100+ specimens at SGDS. Difficult prep because they are encased in iron concretions.
