Happy ! Here's a look at the lower half of the back leg of the being worked on at the Museum of Ancient Life. Over 60% of the animal is preserved, including beautiful vertebrae. I'll be visiting it again next weekend!

A black Barosaurus leg starting from the tibia and fibula. The claws point toward the bottom of the image, and they curl toward the right. The leg takes up the entire shelf it sits on.

@punkpaleo If this is the specimen I think it is, those cervical vertebrae are just insanely beautiful: the best I've seen of *any* sauropod.

Aren't they?! And the paleopathologies! Several of them have evidence of osteophagus insects, a personal favorite of mine!

@punkpaleo Oh, sweet! I'd missed that completely.
