This week, Nottingham Trent University lecturer Fred Owen and student Kirsty visited our fossil collections to study our Pleistocene canids.
It helped to have an articulated modern dog skeleton at hand for comparative purposes!

Marine reptile fun! @WitcherClo led an outreach event at Wollaton Hall #NottNatHist Museum a few weeks ago. We challenged visitors to ID the fossil bones of an ichthyosaur and work out where they fit in the skeleton.
