@paleofail Oh the sweet smell of irony in the morning.

Worst attempt to make a dinosaur look accurate?

[paleodude123-blog]

Just be glad it's a one off

Palaeoblr Mastersheet

Everyone. Eventually.

There was no way to make this a nice Tumblr Post, so have a Google Doc. 

This has a bunch of Palaeoblr blogs, including just casual fans/observers. There is NO RULE for being a part of Palaeoblr, you just have to love paleontology, prehistoric life, and living things in general. So if you’d like for me to add your URL, let me know. If you’d like me to add additional URLs you have that aren’t on the list, let me know. If you’d like me to modify your “speciality” (which is… informal at this point), let me know. 

Tada!

Mind adding me? I'm kind of new but working on some art.

Jurassic World the Game is an excellent example of how little people know about dinosaur anatomy.

Feathered Dinosaurs

Reblog if you Agree

[paleodude123-blog]

Well shit. Can't argue with facts.

[harrisongourd-blog]

Something about this just doesn’t seem quite right… 

You sick bastards.

We can’t always get what we want, Orca 167.

[paleodude123-blog]

It's not meant to be abs but downy feathers that modern day owls have to reduce flight noise.

The Problem with Zookeepers

Playing Zoo Tycoon is only fun until your zookeepers have a mental breakdown and claim they cant reach or see a food dish despite standing inside it.

Go Kapako! Win it for all the flightless people!

Paleontologists have identified two flowers trapped in the mid-Tertiary Dominican amber as belonging to an unknown species of the asterid family.

Might not be dinosaurs or some other vertebrate but for fans of Jurassic Park like me, anything frozen in time is a beautiful snapshot into an ancient world.

Paleontologists link leg length to running ability in bipedal carnivorous dinosaurs

A new study in leg length among carnivorous dinosaurs has yielded a formula to identify adaptations for speed. The theory is simple: To run faster, dinosaurs evolved longer legs.

Curses! My old nemesis Nannotyrannus rears his ugly head I've more!

Solly Lingham-Soliar’s at it again.

Remember the feathered Ornithomimus from a few months back (van der Reest et al., 2015)? 

(van der Reest et al., 2015)

Yeah. 

Theagarten Lingham-Soliar’s (Lingham-Soliar, 2016) jumped on this one as well, bringing in the usual arguments about feather impressions being collagen and how van der Reest et al.’s methods are terrible.

The funniest thing, though - 

(Lingham-Soliar, 2016)

Twelve out of eighteen references refer to his own papers. 

It’s almost like nobody agrees with him!

When will be learn that he's digging himself his own grave while simultaneously burning every surrounding bridge.

Thank you John Conway for helping me choose the perfect critter, that's why I got a gecko.

[franzanth]

Suggest me a real animal I could base Charizard’s head on.

No inappropriate request this time, sorry for your disappointment. Brb tho cooking.

[myloverhammurabi]

Somewhat of a ridiculous suggestion: pronghorn.

[paleodude123-blog]

Kaprosuchus might work
