Giant Saurolophus Footprint Found in Gobi Desert
Paleontologists discovered a 92-centimeter-wide Saurolophus footprint in the Gobi Desert, part of a 13-footprint trail suggesting a dinosaur exceeding 15 meters, larger than some Tyrannosaurus Rex, offering insights into its size, gait, and behavior unavailable from skeletal remains alone.

Ancient Dinosaur Fossils May Lie Hidden in the Amazon
A study suggests that the oldest dinosaur fossils may be undiscovered in the Amazon and other equatorial regions of Gondwana, millions of years older than the current oldest known fossils, pushing back their origin to a warmer, drier environment.

Fossil Evidence Confirms Ancient Primate Voyages Across the Atlantic
Fossils of three distinct African primate species—Perupithecus ucayaliensis, Ucayalipithecus perdita, and Ashaninkacebus simpsoni—unearthed in South America prove at least three successful transatlantic crossings, likely via vegetation rafts, around 30–40 million years ago, shaping New World primate...

New Dinosaur Species Identified From WWII-Era Photos
Paleontologists identified a new giant predatory dinosaur species, Tameryraptor markgrafi, from photos of a fossil destroyed in a WWII air raid in Munich; the 32-foot-long Cretaceous-era creature from Egypt's Bahariya Oasis was initially misclassified.

Snow Leopard Evolution: Eurasian Fossils Reveal Dispersal from Qinghai-Xizang Plateau
An international team used Eurasian snow leopard fossils to reveal multiple dispersals from the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau during the Middle Pleistocene, driven by mountainous terrain and prey availability, not solely high-altitude adaptation, impacting current conservation efforts.
