Dinosaur of the day Raphus, a secondarily flightless dinosaur which is often thought of as clumsy, but was actually swift-footed.

In dinosaur news this week:

  • An analysis of dinosaur bone density showed that Spinosaurus & Baryonyx likely hunted underwater
  • Researchers have found Borogovia is a valid taxon and supported it being classified as a troodontid
  • A new enantiornithine, Musivavis amabilis, was described from Liaoning, China
  • Brevirostruavis macrohyoidus was described with a "hyper-elongated tongue" possibly used like a hummingbird or woodpecker
  • Another bird like dinosaur, Kaririavis mater, was found in Brazil with feathers preserved on its foot
  • A review of over 100 specimens resulted in two new dinosaurs being named Meemannavis & Brevidentavis
  • Stan the T. rex was tracked down to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
  • Stan will be a part of the upcoming Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi which is scheduled to open at the end of 2025
  • In Beijing, there’s a Birds and Dinosaurs exhibit at the Geological Museum of China
