What Happened to the Bone-Crushing Dogs That Once Hunted Across North America? Before going extinct roughly two million years ago, canids known as borophagines took down and consumed much larger prey

For tens of millions of years, bone-crushing dogs padded across North America and busted up carcasses. Then they were gone. What happened to them? I dig in over at Smithsonian. 🧪

The spectacular BBC series #WalkingWithDinosaurs 2025 featured fantastic dinosaur designs, and represents a return-to-screens of the series a quarter century after the original. Come to #DinoConUK on Aug 16th & 17th and hear Jay Balamurugan @kakapojay.bsky.social tell the behind-the-scenes story...

In 2025, we've seen Spinosaurus designs from several productions. Some of these are scientifically informed; others are more...stylised.

The Fossil Files In “The Fossil Files”, a pair of palaeontologists delve into the latest discoveries from the world of palaeontology and seek to bring fossils to back to life. Each episode, Susie and Rob will discuss ...

A brand new Fossil Files podcast (@thefossilfiles.bsky.social) on pterosaurs, lagerpetids and climate modelling is out now here: fossils.libsyn.com and on all your favourite podcast platforms. In it, we spend a lot of time discussing how it is easy to say 'lager' but hard to say 'lagerpetid'.

Critics of de-extinction research hit by mystery smear campaign Several researchers who have been critical of Colossal Biosciences’ plans to revive extinct animals say they have been targeted by online articles trying to discredit them

I'm so glad someone is finally reporting on this.

As a friend of @toriherridge.bsky.social, I find it so egregious that her expertise has been targeted. She is a world expert in extinct elephants! And @nicrawlencenz.bsky.social studies NZ's fossil birds ffs!

Thank god this is all behind us, and we're not facing a wave of right-wing radicalised unemployed 20-29 young men. And we don't have fascist secret-state police abusing and rounding up foreign workers. Prison slave labour. No genocide of people seen as racially inferior too.
