This week for #Fossilfriday we have another #Guess that #Lego #Fossil.

This one I would rate as medium. This mammal is known from Pliocene and Pleistocene of Africa

Reminder: hide your answer behind a content warning. This will allow others to guess without a hint. I will post the answer tomorrow (and to anyone who guesses correctly).

Musste gerade wieder den #verbrenner tanken. Jetzt wieder Dieselgestank an den Händen. Zeit wird's, das das Ding weg kommt. Ich werde dem nicht hinterher trauern. Seit ich mit einem #eauto fahren kann, merke ich viel stärker, wie eklig das #fossil Zeug tatsächlich ist. Bäh!!

Did you miss last Friday's meeting? Luckily, we recorded both talks and they are now available on our YouTube page!

Dr. Leslie Eliuk: Mammoth site, Hot Springs, South Dakota: A Photo Tour youtu.be/JCS1ve59glg
Dr. Francois Therrien - What really killed the dinosaurs: a look at the latest developments youtu.be/GG_QgRIkMQ8

Thanks to both presenters for their presentations!

Did you know that you can find fossil dinosaur eggs in Alberta? In 1987 Wendy Sloboda, then a teenager, was scrambling around Devil's Coulee near Warner, Alberta when she came across the shells of what would later turn our to be eggs from a species of hadrosaur. There's now a wonderful museum, the Devil's Coulee Dinosaur Museum, which displays finds from the area and provides tours.

This week for #Fossilfriday we have another #Guess that #Lego #Fossil.

This one I would rate as easy. This large representative of its family is commonly thought to be the origins of a dinosaur in Jurassic Park, even though that's impossible.
