We know it’s not the root of a problem because it’s on the cusp of greatness 🤣

1 day, 17 hours agoNathan Newell posted an image in the group Paleo Pics from the myFOSSIL appHere’s a fossil hunting selfie from yesterday at a site I found near Brandywine, WV. It was 37°F with snow flurries, which is not exactly the best fossil hunting weather. 😄 Still, I managed to find some really cool crinoid segments. 👍 #collection_site

Cold means less vegetation and insects! But also frozen hands….

Proboscidea, Mammutidae from the teaching collection at the Florida museum.

After researching your question online I cannot find any information suggesting tyrannosaurs had asymmetrical ears. I did learn that asymmetry in ears in owls occurs primarily in nocturnal species. But then I also didn’t find information saying tyrannosaurs were nocturnal hunters or not. Either way, it pains me to see you taping anything to a museum specimen, unless this is a reproduction or cast of a skull. https.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrannosaurus, https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1377110/Some-dinosaur-species-nocturnal-did-hunting-night.html

This is clearly a cast and not an actual specimen. However this is a first generation cast and is very close to the original specimen which is the one that Nick Cage used to own. Again, the reason why I taped thin sheets of paper of the lateral temporal fenestrae is to see if they are asymmetrical or not, and they appear to be so. Also, try giving this GSA abstract a read: https://gsa.confex.com/gsa/2015AM/webprogram/Paper265794.html

Also, last I checked its illegal to own an actual Tarbosaurus skull in the United States, and all of the real ones are in museums in Mongolia.

@jeanette-pirlo is working on preparing this gomphothere tusk still encased in a jacket. It’s slow going, because some of the softer parts must be stabilized by glue as she works. #fossil #method

My dad is a literal mad scientist. He built a homemade CT scanner out of a used dental x-ray machine so he could CT fossils… now that didn’t quite work, because dental x-rays are constructed to, you know, not damage living tissue, which means they’re a bit weak for scanning what is essentially rock… but good try Dad. Good try.

Only true Moolack-heads know how exciting a cone is!
-
Definitely Pinus. There’s a scale towards the base where there is a clear apophysis and umbo. It looks like the seeds are still inside too. Pinus berglundii Miller is the only cone described so far but I bet there are more. Larry showed me one like this that was more elongated.

You should bring it to a museum, if it is indeed a dolphin skull it might need to have an expert take a good look at it!
-
@max-dereme Although not incredibly common there are probably at least 3 dolphin skulls that come from the OR Coast. They are relatively common for vert material. UO knows is aware.
-
@mackenzie-smith oh ok I didn’t know. That’s very cool! Thanks for the info
-
@max-dereme No problem! Also, I meant to say three skulls a year (not three total). A lot of the material was discovered by Ralph Emlong in the 1980’s and is housed at UCMP and the Smithsonian.
