Dodos foraging along the beaches of Mauritius, and they’re doing so at night!
This was made for the latest People Are Fish video interviewing phD candidate @evolsara.bsky.social. on her research on dodos. Turns out, they may have been nocturnal!

The second episode of Surviving Earth premieres tonight on NBC! But before that I want to share with you more concept designs I did for various animals from last week’s episode. If you know me you can imagine how excited I was to design Triassic species for this show!

The first exhibition of 2026 is open! 🖼️✨
This is the most personal exhibition we’ve had so far. I asked the artists to share artwork they’re particularly proud of and/or taught them important artistic or personal lessons along with a short explanation of why.

Before we close out 2025, here is Walking with Dinosaurs thread number 4 (and a bit) – this time, The Pack, my personal favourite episode. It follows the young Albertosaurus Rose as she faces the trials and tribulations of the ancient Horseshoe Canyon– will she succeed? (1/60)

I think in terms of their model, look, and animation, the Utahraptor might well be up there among my favourites in the series. They feel like quintessential dromaeosaurs – for more info, I’ve written a longer article here: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/a...

G. lorriemcwhinneyae is quite different compared to its cousin – considerably spikier! Until the revelation of Spicomellus’ new look recently, this species of Gastonia was almost certainly up there in terms of being the pincushion-iest of the ankylosaurs. (7/40)

After a 3-month hiatus, thread number 3! Band of Brothers is the third episode of WWD2025, and focuses on the coming-of-age story of George the teenage Gastonia as he is pursued by Utahraptor, framed around the Lorrie’s site quarry in the Cedar Mountain Formation. (1/40)

Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all:
“If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.”
Israel just killed him.
