Richard Vaughan+FollowPterosaurs Were Total Shape-ShiftersTurns out those ancient flying reptiles weren’t just dino-era sky pigeons—they were wild, weird, and way more diverse than we ever thought. Fossils from Arizona to Mongolia are showing off pterosaurs with all kinds of diets (plants! filter-feeding!), brain shapes, and even lifestyles (some stalked around on the ground like giant storks). The more we dig, the more we realize we barely know these prehistoric sky legends. What’s the next jaw-dropper hiding in the rocks? #Science #Pterosaurs #FossilFriday00Share
Richard Vaughan+FollowDinosaur Eggs Turned Into Sparkly Geodes?!Imagine cracking open a dino egg and finding crystals instead of fossils! In China’s Qianshan Basin, scientists found 70-million-year-old dinosaur eggs that look like dirty rocks on the outside but are packed with dazzling white crystals inside. No one expected dino eggs here, let alone ones that turned into geodes! The species that laid them is still a mystery, but these eggs are giving us wild new clues about the last days of the dinosaurs. Nature’s got jokes! #Science #Dinosaurs #FossilFriday00Share
