Not sure if a Christmas goose will be on your table, but here's an interesting domestic Chinese goose skull. It's a species of "knob goose," named for the casque on its face. Fun to find the source of the knob's pneumaticity, which we first identified in ostrich back in 2008

Very excited to have been part of this study on the endocranial structures of Voay robustus published today in Journal of Anatomy with @HautierLionel, vincent fernandez and others. A little thread below, paper available #OpenAccess here: doi.org/10.1002/ar.253… 🚨🐊🚨

Happy #FossilFriday! Meet Boverisuchus, the amazing crocodyliform from Europe & North America (about 45 million yrs ago). It was well-adapted for hunting on land, w/ long legs held under the body, a shorter tail & hoof-like toes + it had serrated teeth! Likely prey: early horses!

And so the Riversleigh stream concluded! Lots of weird marsupials in this one. Since we chose to depict here a Miocene faunal zone you will not come across your typical Australian megafauna, like Diprotodon and Dromornis, that stuff came later.

Fresh ink! We look at how the skulls of rock-wallabies change with size and how size influences jaw anatomy and biting ability The tiniest species seem to be particularly good at biting Vera Weisbecker (she/her on Kaurna land) Meg Martin royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

A male Voay robustus rests with a female C. niloticus during the breeding season about 1000 years ago. He´s blissfully unaware that he is the last member of his species, but that's okay. What's extinction compared to the love of a lady and the warm rays of the sun on your face?

-Horned crocodilians- I hope you are all having a great #worldcrocodileday For this year's celebration, I bring this poster that compiles 4 crocodilian species, extinct and alive, that have developed "horns" (elevated lobes of the squamosal bones).
