Geology and taphonomy of a unique tyrannosaurid bonebed from the upper Campanian Kaiparowits Formation of southern Utah: implications for tyrannosaurid gregariousness
Evidence from a mass grave of five #Tyrannosaur fossils of the #Teratophoneus genus killed in a flood indicates 'habitual gregariousness'. They might even have hunted together in packs like wolves. #dinosaur #behavior

Old news in the realm of #PaleoTwitter: excited some friends & colleagues published the Rainbows and Unicorns turtle and tyrannosaur quarry out of Grand Staircase while I was in the field last week! And yes, we’re working on that panchelonioid
One of our undergraduates was a part of the recent paper on a tyrannosaurid bone bed in the Kaiparowits Formation! Jon also appeared on this feed a few weeks back because of his trilobite research. He's got another year here at SUU before bigger things! https://t.co/kEK5OZwvQq
Grand Staircase-Escalante NM is a treasure trove of scientific data. Here's a group of tyrannosaurs that died together, showing that they were hanging out together--maybe pack hunting? Snuggled together napping? #SaveGrandStaircase #MonumentsForAll #Utak
