Happy Fossil Friday! Today’s point of interest is one of the oldest lifeforms on the planet—bacteria! But we’re going to find some fossil remnants of bacteria in the least likely of places—inside a cave!
PART TWO: The continuation of Past One of today’s Fossil Friday video examining the Permian Period therapsid, Estemmenosuchus.
PART ONE: Happy Fossil Friday! Today’s specimen is Estemmenosuchus, a therapsid from the Middle Permian, c. 267 million years ago, long before dinosaurs, pterosaurs, or crocodilians came into the scene.
Happy Fossil Friday! Today we revisit an old friend, the Stegosaurus. There is much to know about the majestic animal, but also so many misconceptions to debunk. For example: have you ever heard that Stegosaurus has two brains? Is that true? Find it in today’s video!
(PART 2) Happy Fossil Friday! And happy 200th anniversary to the naming of the first dinosaur to ever be described—Megalosaurus. Discovered in South England, this animal was of three that formed the basis of the creation of the group of reptiles we all know today as “dinosaurs”.

Happy Fossil Friday! Today just so happens to mark the 69th anniversary of the Japanese movie monster franchise, Godzilla, so we thought it only appropriate to release a video about a dinosaur named after Godzilla! 😄🤓 Named Gojirasaurus (because Godzilla in Japanese is said “ゴジラ”, or “Gojira”), literally meaning “Godzilla reptile”, was one of the largest early theropods of North America during the Late Triassic Period.

Today, we found a tooth of one of the most dastardly, foul creatures that ever lived. One so grotesque it will make your heart go still. It's... a fish! Not a very big one either. But trust us, you don't want a nibble from this thing 😬🫣
