25 year chap who recently earned his PhD trying to make his way into the murky, uncertain world of vertebrate palaeontology.

Palaeontologists and engineers at Drexel University have teamed up to scan fossilised dinosaur bones, 3D-print scaled-down replicas and then use them to build perfectly-proportioned robotic dinosaur skeletons.

Ontograph Studios provide video graphics, interactive exhibits, and illustration for museums, science centres and television. The studio specialises in natural history and palaeontology, and is dedicated to maintaining the highest standards in scientific accuracy.

Mammal hair has remained almost unchanged for 100 million years, reveal two hairs found encased in ancient amber.

Horned dinosaurs previously considered native only to Asia and North America might also have roamed the lands of prehistoric Europe, say scientists.

It does get boring simply recording and repeating mistakes made by those covering science inexpertly in the media, but when it happens so regularly and so confoundingly, it can be hard to avoid or resist. In this case I’ll prefix it with some better reporting.

A newly discovered primate that lived in Africa 37 million years ago doesn't fit into the primate family tree.

Scientists have discovered a dinosaur-like creature 10 million years older than the earliest known dinosaurs.

A team of paleontologists has discovered a new dinosaur species they're calling Abydosaurus, which belongs to the group of gigantic, long-necked, long-tailed, four-legged, plant-eating dinosaurs such as Brachiosaurus.

Research suggests the largest dinosaurs, the sauropods, did not stick their necks out in front of them but held their heads high.
