Just remembered this presentation opening slide from a talk I gave in 2013. It remains the best piece of art I've ever done.
This presentation, after a lot of complications, became the @TetZoo & Witton paper on the short-neck of Hatzegopteryx: https://t.co/kJyoCpPHdw https://t.co/lWAHG7ZhUp
This study - Neck biomechanics indicate that giant Transylvanian azhdarchid pterosaurs were short-necked arch predators - is again #OA and was published in @thePeerJ ... https://t.co/azYXQCldHo #azhdarchids #pterosaurs
By c 2015 it had become obvious that some giant #azhdarchids - like Hatzegopteryx from Romania - were also 'thick necked'. This has major implications for behaviour and feeding behaviour. Our 2017 paper on this appeared in @thePeerJ .... https://t.co/azYXQCldHo https://t.co/y4LUxWljtP
