Here Filippo and Liz look at one of the key skeletons, "Warwick's Duck": on loan at Badlands Dinosaur Museum from Museum of the Rockies for a number of years, and can be seen in the exhibit (found by Warwick Fowler, in 2009). /5

CLUMSY MALE DINOSAURS INJURED FEMALES DURING MATING: Our new paper (Filippo Bertozzo et al. 2025), shows that a common tail injury seen in duckbilled dinosaurs was probably caused by heavy male dinosaurs clumsily crushing the spines of females during mating. /1

Finally, some longitudinal data on faculty morale.

There is a lot more interesting depth to this article than in most media stories about European immigrant communities in the US and Canada; it moves back and forth between Manitoba and Iceland up into the 21st century, with insights on politics and culture in both places.

All of the higher shorelines of Lake Agassiz (Herman, Norcross, Tintah, Campbell) were named for towns along a 19th century railroad line. And the name of the lake? I guess we can take it as an opportunity to talk about Louis Agassiz as a very prominent 19th century advocate of scientific racism.

The hype is real. This two hour long doc about extreme birdwatching is an absolute delight, and nothing less than a soothing balm in horrible times. The makers have put the whole thing up on YouTube, for free with no ads, and all of you should watch it right now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zl-w...

Have you heard that crows can recognize human faces... and that they hold a grudge, maybe for years? Ever wonder how we can *know* that? The answer: Halloween costumes 🎃 & some innovative UW scientists working over decades, led by John Marzluff, co-author of "In the Company of Crows and Ravens".

Given the new paper yesterday, here’s the skull of a #Nanotyrannus for this #FossilFriday. Once widely thought to be a juvenile #Tyrannosaurus rex, this dinosaur is now recognised as a separate genus & not even a tyrannosaurid! 🦖 #Paleontology #Science #Dinosaurs 🧵 1/

Okay, trying a little experiment here. Public Halloween playlist, if you are on Apple Music you can add some songs. Please be cool, do not do anything dumb like adding something that references current events, do not delete anyone else’s songs, only add spooky tracks that fit the vibe.

ICE / CBP chased a car through Waukegan & Gurnee (N suburbs) to a high school, where they abducted someone in the parking lot and another person INSIDE IN FRONT OF STUDENTS & STAFF. If that wasn’t traumatizing enough, they threatened a chemical weapons attack. This shit is dangerous & unacceptable.
