> These tracks pre-date the oldest bird bone by around 60 million years. Ancient animals were walking around on bird-like feet over 210 million years ago, according to a study published on November 29, 2023, in the open-access journal PLOS ONE by Miengah Abrahams and Emese M.

I have participated in 3rd Crossing the Palaeontological - Ecological Gap conference 😍 It was an amazing experience! Thank you all who made it happen!
Also, I want to thank my master thesis supervisor Darja Dankina ❤️ She made it possible for me to participate - poster article is her work with a smaller part of it being my Ms.
