Houston Museum of Natural Science + T. rex Victoria - July 2021
ThePhysicist posted a topic in A Trip to the Museum
I was in the area, so I made a very brief stop by the HMNS. I'll state up-front that this will be extremely dino-centric. What I saw was really great, they have a chronologically-organized display of animals from stromatolites to humans (I only made it to the Cretaceous). The lighting is very dramatic, so seeing it in person is much better than the dark photos portray (I did edit a few of them to enhance visibility). Lots of dynamic posing which is nice compared to other museums. Also, most specimens aren't behind glass, and you can get really close. I believe most of the skeleton- 8 replies

While my prime focus is essentially learning how to accurately describe Nature in the precise language of mathematics, I've always been intrigued by natural history - it's actually what started me on the path to physics. The sort of interrogation that paleontology practices provoked me to think and question even further, down to the fundamental science which makes it all work. Collecting fossils has brought a large amount of enjoyment to my life, and is often a welcome distraction from what can sometimes be straining work. The knowledge that I accumulate along the way is also part

Are there any excursions other than Paleoprospectors where you pay for the fossil excursion and you can keep your finds? Hells Creek

?Tyrannosaurus rex Lance Fm., Weston Co., WY, USA 1" X 1.5" X .5" I got this bone perhaps foolishly last year (although it wasn't very expensive at all; that coupled with the provenance that follows is why I got it). It was sold as a T. rex bone chunk, like many you can find online. There is nothing identifiable about these hunks of bone - you need something more substantial like a whole bone to be certain. I got this bone from a seller who finds many of the fossils himself, was director of a small museum in South Dakota (now gone I believe), and found T. rex -
Hi All, I'm new to this forum and thought I'd send over images of my theropod teeth plus one extremely impressive sauropod from Madagascar. Hope you like them! Paul

Hello everyone, The Land Before Time and jurassic park are some of my favourite movies but i really not know nothig about fossils;) Recently i found in the Alps Mountains here in italy what to my eyes is only a strange rock, i'm here to ask you if the thing you can see in the attached video can be some kind of fossil. Many thanks to everyone 1728365416_WhatsAppVideo2021-06-07at19_09_56.mp4

Identification: This tooth was sold as being from a Dromaeosaur. The serrations' shape and their similarity on both carinae say otherwise. In the Hell Creek Formation, there are potentially two Tyrannosaur species. If Nanotyrannus is invalid, then this is automatically a T. rex tooth. For those who consider Nanotyrannus to be valid, this tooth is still T. rex based on the robustness of the tip and serrations, and the CHR (Crown Height Ratio). Tyrannosaurus maxillary teeth may still have minor basal compression, as this one does. This is from a juvenile animal based on its small

Tyrannosaurus tooth effectively?
Josesaurus rex posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello, seen another tooth, this time it is a fragment of the tip, according to the seller, it is from the Hell Creek Formation, South Dakota. Sorry for the poor quality of the images, but I'm uploading them from my cell phone. As soon as I can, I will replace them with better quality ones. I would appreciate any comments from you. -

Comparison of Tyrannosaur denticles (serrations) from the Hell Creek Formation. All of the images are set to the same scale Some differences are likely associated with position in the mouth and/or feeding wear. So, this may not be a perfect illustration of purely ontogenetic variation. The adult T. rex denticles are from an unknown position and carina (being from a tooth fragment), the juvenile T. rex denticles are from the distal carina of a right (rear?) maxillary tooth, and the infant T. rex denticles are from the distal carina of a posterior tooth. The Nanotyrannus -

Dinosaur tooth. Gorgosaur? Nanotyrannus? T-rex?
Josesaurus rex posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello again. I saw this tooth on the internet, I don't know what dinosaur it could be from. In the description of the publication it does not say anything, only that it is from the theropod and from the United States. I suspect it is from a tyrannosaurid, but which one? I don't know. Gorgosaurus? or T rex? There is no further information on the origin or training where it was obtained. What do you think it could be? I know that with so little data not much can be done, but I would like to know the opinions or suggestions that you have on this ma -
A couple of days ago there was a thread that provided links to @Troodon 's id posts about identifying tyrannosaurid teeth. I didn't bookmark them and can't locate them. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks.

Tyrannosaurus Toe Bone?

Two teeth from Tyrannosaurus rex at different growth stages. The adult is a replica of a posterior right dentary tooth of Stan. The baby/juvenile is also a posterior tooth (about 6 mm long), found in the Hell Creek Fm. (more info: http://www.thefossilforum.com/index.php?/collections-database/chordata/dinosaurs/baby-t-rex-tooth-r1992/). It could also be a dentary tooth based on the wear patterns, but I'm not sure. -

Hello! I got this tooth as a Christmas present, and to me it looks like a T.rex tooth, but the shape of the base made me less sure. I was hoping someone could help get a accurate id. The tooth is 10/16 of an inch long, and was found in Garfield county Montana.It has similar serrations on both sides, so I thought it was a tyrannosaur tooth. The shape, lack of pinching at the base, and thickness made me think it was T.rex, and the base looked to me like it could be a maxillary tooth since it was more rectangular than oval, but I wanted to see if anyone thought it looked more like a Nanotyrannus

Identification: Originally listed as a Dromaeosaurid tooth, I suspected it was from a Tryannosaurid. Upon receiving the tooth, I contacted a few paleontologists to get expert opinions. Their conclusion was that the tooth was likely from a baby/juvenile Tyrannosaur. Since the only Tyrannosaurs in the Hell Creek Formation are Tyrannosaurus rex and Nanotyrannus lancensis (or only T. rex if N. lancensis is a young T. rex), and considering the cross-section of the base of the tooth, this must be from a baby Tyrannosaurus rex. This tooth shares many qualities with adult teeth, a fact which

is this juvenile t rex skeleton real?
Josesaurus rex posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hi, I have now corrected my previous post to avoid breaking the rules. I saw this recently and it actually seems too good to be true. I suspect that it may be false, as the stone that contains it does not look very natural in color, although the skeleton looks quite good. if you could comment on that it would be great.
