Are you lining up volunteer work with the museum or just searching for and photographing fossils in the park? Well I’ll be studying some specimens from the museum as I have access to the back collections, and I’ll be doing fuel work finding fossils and just trying to get as much information from them as I can and also get the coordinates of the fossils. So I’ll be doing kinda both, but I won’t be able to go back until Fall of next year (sometime in September or October 2021). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arion Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 not sure if you’ve seen this yet, has some interesting discussion of DP Daspletosaurus identification and also concludes Thanatotheristes is a species of Daspletosaurus (D. degrootorum). Frequently references a forthcoming paper describing a new tyrannosaurine from the Foremost Formation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I’ve read it, thank you, in it, it says that the Dinosaur Park species is D. torosus but it doesn’t have that much information to back up this assumption.

dinosaur man Posted September 17, 2020 Author Share Posted September 17, 2020 I haven’t been on the forum that much but I would like to share this, I did a whole systematic study of every Daspletosaurus specimen with preserved lacrimal horns. What each one would look like based off the study. @Troodon 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinosaur man Posted October 13, 2020 Author Share Posted October 13, 2020 I haven’t been on lately hopefully soon I could be on more but so far for my project I’ve learned a lot especially with the help of Jared Voris. I recently made this based off of a hypothetical 400mm Baby Daspletosaurus skull similar to the size of baby Tarbosaurus, Gorgosaurus and Albertosaurus skulls that have been found. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troodon Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Nice presentation. Just a comment, your legs appear to be both left ones. For example the fibula, metatarsal V and digit I should not be visible on the right leg. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troodon Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 The horn study was interesting since I never really paid attention to their shape. Have to wonder how much variation there is within a species 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to wonder how much variation there is within a species Yeah, there is a fair amount of variation through species but they all have the basic structure enough to tell them apart from other species of the same genus. I’ll have to show you the list of all the specimens I used on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinosaur man Posted December 23, 2020 Author Share Posted December 23, 2020 I haven’t been posting much of my research on here lately, but I’ve been very busy with the project and have had some great new discoveries! Though I can’t share all of them, but I will be updating everyone about this topic very soon! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
