Dinosaur of the day Sinotyrannus, an early tyrannosauroid that was large, had big hands, and was likely covered in feathers.

Interview with David Moscato and Will Harris, paleontologists, science communicators, and the podcasters behind Common Descent, which is all about the fascinating diversity of life, past and present. They also have a patreon at patreon.com/commondescentpodcast

In dinosaur news this week:

  • The oldest “long-necked” dinosaur was identified from new material in Southern Brazil
  • Two titanosaurs in Gondwana had injuries in their tails
  • Different dinosaur groups may have independently evolved pneumaticity (hollow bones)

 

You can dig up real dinosaur bones this summer with Colorado Northwestern Community College! Join them for a two week immersive field paleontology experience digging up dinosaur bones from the Jurassic period in Northwest Colorado. There are two scheduled digs: May 27–June 11 and July 1–July 16. There are also two concurrent immersive lab techniques programs available.
