Two Blog-Teeth

Welcome to Double Dog Teeth, a blog dedicated to any and all things dicynodont (and that includes their other anomodont cousins)! Now, I am by no means a professional of any sort (yet...), so this is entirely a passion project for a group of fossil animals I happen to have found myself (obsessed with) awfully fond of. And for, in my opinion, good reason! Dicynodonts and their closest kin are an impressively numerous, diverse and relatively long-lived group of animals, and have a long, rich taxonomic history to boot. The idea for a blog was almost inevitable, and as far as I can tell, the niche was open.

By and large, Double Dog Teeth will be for talking about any new and past dicynodont focused (or at least dicynodont-adjacent) papers published, tracing the history of dicynodont research, and for digging up any interesting and unusual ideas about dicynodonts from the past odd century and a half.

Plus I'll be drawing them too sometimes, so stick around if you like what you see.
