My fourth year as fossil mammal curator at the @nhm-london.bsky.social has come and gone! Another busy one, from fieldwork in Greece to digging through archives. We've cleared clutter, documented specimens, and shared the wonder. Exciting new research and gallery work somehow squeezed in too! ☺️

It’s Fossil Friday! This archival image, snapped in 1966, depicts Museum visitors gazing up at Gorgosaurus. This slender tyrannosaur was smaller than its gigantic cousin T. rex, reaching lengths of up to 30 ft (9 m) and weights of 2,200 lbs (1,000 kg).

For #FossilFriday, a sampler from yesterday's sarcopterygian lab for EARTH 437: Vertebrate Paleontology. First off, the onychodont station featuring material of Onychodus from the Middle Devonian of Ohio.
