Interestingly, #Spinosaurus mirabilis exhibits crest asymmetry in some specimens. It is a reminiscent of the varying degree of casque asymmetry in modern #cassowaries. Learn more here:

🚨NEW SCIENCE ALERT!🚨Our paper, led by Dr. Paul Sereno, is now available in @science.org! We describe a new African #dinosaur species with a unique cranial crest—Spinosaurus mirabilis. Beautiful #paleoart by Dani Navarro graces the cover of the February 19 issue!

This is not a wild Australian #emu, but rather a captive animal from the US. We routinely catch emus for data collection, veterinary checks, and transferring enclosures. Restraining emus in this awkward fashion reduces the chance of being kicked by the bird, but they are still incredibly strong!

Hello Bluesky! I joined this platform to redirect some of my social media efforts. My name is Todd Green and I study comparative and functional #anatomy of vertebrate animals―with particular interest in the evolutionary morphology of #flightlessbirds. Below is an adult, southern #cassowary.
