@Irishpalaeo It's just that the small size of birds and their phenomenal growth rate means they are essentially fully grown at the end of parental care, whereas crocs (and non-avian dinosaurs) would have a long time between no parents and adulthood.

Been thinking on the "T. rex parenting" talk of the last few days which has as always lit a fire of certainty in the online palaeo community. One thing I think is often lost in translating scientific concept to the interested layperson is the fact that there /1

After returning from Lithuania I finally caught up with Surviving Earth today. The Carboniferous was my favorite episode so far and not just because I made concept art for the Arthropleura.
Important: I made this BEFORE the head material was published.

モンゴルの古生物学の発展に大きく貢献した友人Khishigjav Tsogtbaatar が逝去されました。彼とともに過ごした調査の日々は私にとってかけがえのない思い出。その情熱と功績はこれからも多くの研究者や学生たちの中で生き続けるでしょう。心よりご冥福をお祈りいたします。Rest in peace, my friend.

The second episode of Surviving Earth premieres tonight on NBC! But before that I want to share with you more concept designs I did for various animals from last week’s episode. And if you know me you can imagine how excited I was to design Triassic species for this show!

it was fantastic to see my Saurosuchus design is action on yesterdays episode, liked this one more than the last, and I hope I'am not too biased because one of my critters is in here. There was another one of my guys supposed to be here but it looks like it didn't make the cut.

Result from the Tiaojishan Formation stream, or rather Yanliao biota stream. This incredible assemblage was on my mind from the very start of doing these pieces, not just because it has tons of fascinating critters but because a big portion of the vertebrates here appear...

I've noticed that the CGI is generally uneven in some sequences...
The one with the Cuvieronius is definitely among the best.🐘

Something exciting is coming soon!
After years of fieldwork, preparation, analysis, and collaboration, our team at the Mansoura University Vertebrate Paleontology Center is preparing to share a new study that will soon be published internationally.

@TyrantLzrdQueen I cannot believe people are complaining about this! It makes no sense. I thought the name was a genius, super fun idea and I'm glad you named it like that.

What's your favourite T. rex

@JHemiptera Thanks!

[Joschua Knüppe @JoschuaKnuppe]

I always try to give credit when it comes to the people behind the scenes of the formation pieces, but not always does it feel sufficient and the file size limit of social media often times doesn't allow for their work to be displayed properly... 🧵
