#SVP2024 was last week, and in addition to seeing some great talks and shepherding my students around, I also got to go on a surprise research trip to the #Science #Museum of Minnesota with the @ndgspaleo.bsky.social crew. More #dinosaur mummy shenanigans to come.

Poster on the wall of the library, introducing the display cases. Four book covers with QR codes link to digital paleo books I’ve written.
Case with fossils from life in water, including mosasaur, crocodile, bird, snails, crabs, and more.
Case with land fossils, such as Edmontosaurus, trees, rhinos, tortoises, and more.
Case with tools used by our crew, such as air scribes, PPE, plaster, sodium bicarbonate, foam, plastic, glues, and even 3D printing.
Finished installing a temporary fossil exhibit at the Minot (ND) Library. Life on Land and in Water, plus Tools of the Trade.
