Terrible news that Hans-Dieter Sues has died. Way too young.
Hans (on the right) & Sasha Averianov (left) invited me to study Timurlengia with them. I'll always appreciate it.
Hans was eminent, always nice and cheerful to me, a man of ethics and faith. RIP.
We are deeply saddened by the unexpected passing of Hans-Dieter Sues. A towering and kind scientist & gifted communicator, he shaped our field through more than 150 papers, landmark discoveries, & a lifelong commitment to sharing the joy of fossils with everyone he met.

while his research, in collaboration with local enthusiast Paul Foulkes, examined the interaction between dinosaur movement and host sediments along the Broome coast. Tony's 1990 book, "Dinosaur Tracks", remains a classic in the field of #ichnology.
