Dinosaur of the day Denversaurus, a nodosaurid ankylosaur found with over one hundred osteoderms.

Interview with Cameron Pahl, software developer, Research Associate, and Lecturer with Portland State University and Oregon Health & Safety University. He authored the controversial Allosaurus as a scavenger paper, which is really more about how sauropod carrion affected the ecosystem.

In dinosaur news this week:

  • Titanosaur osteoderms might have been useful for defense after all, at least while they were young
  • A new ankylosaur, Spicomellus, was named from a spikey osteoderm fused directly to a rib—a first for any animal
  • Four dinosaurs were excavated in Montana including what could be Anzu, Triceratops, a theropod, and a hadrosaur
  • Dinosauria Museum Prague in the Czech Republic is opening October 4
  • Morrison’s Dinosaur Ridge in Colorado has a new mural of three dinosaurs
  • In Missouri, St. Louis Science Center has a new traveling exhibit, called Tyrannosaurs: Meet the Family
  • Mary Anning’s statue in Dorset will be unveiled on May 21 next year
