I don't think I ever sold any of these as a print on Redbubble but I still like this very polite looking Jakapil.
Did this shortly after this scrungly beast was published. Fell in love instantly. Look at it's armor and small arms and elegant jawline!

Interesting new paper from Cau, which concludes (among other things) that the evolution of Cenozoic birds/dinosaurs is not separate from, but a continuation of, Mesozoic theropod evolution

TBH I think that Paleontologists should be allowed to fight private collectors who purchase any specimen that is incredibly valuable to science actually.

The restaurant I went to tonight with friends had paper tablecloths and coloured pencils "for children to draw with". So I created some Fellows while waiting for pizza :)
Featuring Big Steppy the Edaphosaurus, King Chungo the Vast and Terrible the Cotylorhynchus, and Ramfy Rinkus the Rhamphorhynchus

POV: you went diving at night and spotted Ordovician nautiloids feasting on a eurypterid carcass, after a while the commotion has attracted the giants, Endoceratids slowly creeping into view

Please welcome Perucetus, the new - and largest- known archeoceti.
A whale of enormous proportions. While it's exact size and weight is certainly a matter of heated debates it was no doubt a really big boi. Here a quick sketch of it approaching a time traveler.

Below the poll is a series of animal images labeled A through J. A is the least close to the birds we have today; J is the closest. If you encountered these animals in the wild, which would you call birds? If you pick a higher up option, then that means you consider all the below ones birds as well - so if you pick A, then BCDEFGHIJ are all birds. If you pick J, only J is a bird.
A:
B:
C:
D:
E:
F:
G:
H:
I:
J:
PLEASE REBLOG THIS SO IT CAN LEAVE PALAEOBLR. I NEED PEOPLE WHO DON'T RECOGNIZE THESE ANIMALS ON SIGHT TO VOTE.
I apologize to all of y'all with vision impairments for whom this poll is inaccessible. Alas, this is an experiment, and I cannot name the taxa. Thank you.
All alt text includes artist attribution; I did not make these pictures myself.

When I say "Birds are Dinosaurs" and you say "No you know what I mean, when we say dinosaurs we mean Something Else" I think like... you don't know what I mean.
There's sort of a constructed category of dinosaurs as these scaly, powerful, outdated animals, and birds as these delicate modern animals, and I want you to understand that these ideas are based on outdated science and human biases. That birds can and have grown huge and predatory, that dinosaurs were a hugely diverse group that had grazers and small arboreal animals and fast intelligent ones.
Birds are a category of dinosaur, the only one we have left around. Appreciate them, demythologize dinosaurs, and destroy the boxes you put nature into.
