Next summer, finally returning out west for field work! This time in the Almond Formation. Cool spot, lots of stuff thatās often referred to one thing but is likely new/different. Anchiceratops is a good example.

I remember claims the carcharodontosaurs in Dinosaur Planet were actually based on undescribed(at the time) megaraptorans. Does anyone know if thatās true? Theyāre just such dead ringers for the 90s Giganotosaurus. My gut says theyāre genuinely carchs, just kinda shoehorned in
