Followed by "It seems that maturity is somewhat lacking by the person who named the Reptile." Oh dear! 👩‍🔬😀🐊🤘🎸😂

Received a complaint about #Lemmysuchus "I would like to register my protest of naming new scientific discoveries after Rock starts." (sic)

[NHM Fossil Crocs @NHM_FossilCrocs]

@NHMdinolab Wow, must check it out. @HeadLab_Camb are you collecting the cast soon?

[NHM Fossil Crocs @NHM_FossilCrocs]

@Danger404 Thanks. All in a day's work...

Well, at least a 3D print breaking half way through isn't a COMPLETE waste of time...

[NHM Fossil Crocs @NHM_FossilCrocs]

@NormanConquest_ @myMotorhead @EW Thanks Norman!🤘🎸couldn't have done it without palaeontologists @michela_johnson and @mty_84 and the artist @MarkWitton

[NHM Fossil Crocs @NHM_FossilCrocs]

@jdamats @JuniorCSG They probably weren't looking for fossils; more interested in where the next wrap of speed / bottle of JD was coming from!

[NHM Fossil Crocs @NHM_FossilCrocs]

Didn't take long for someone to make a diagram! It's about right too! @NHM_London @mty_84 @michela_johnson https://t.co/2pxEQw0c2N
