A little dive into the #Devonian collections for #FossilFriday. Here's a beautiful little #trilobite (Ketternaspis?) from the Haragan Formation of Oklahoma. Such incredible, delicate spines on this little extinct sea-bug! #paleontology #fossils @PerotMuseum

A little-bitty baby #mammoth lower jaw for #FossilFriday! A donation years ago from the family of a local collector, we sadly don't have much site info for it at the moment. It really is a cute little thing though. #paleontology #fossils @PerotMuseum

Another #Triassic specimen for #FossilFriday. Multiple #osteoderms of #Desmatosuchus (DMNH 9940) from the Post Quarry, west Texas. Collected 1977, these #aetosaur armor plates were pretty blown up until @PerotMuseum team started reassembly last month. #paleontology #fossils

A pile of #Dimetrodon skull fragments for #FossilFriday. Just a tiny fraction of the multitude of bones, bits, and pieces from the Lower #Permian Rattlesnake Canyon site near Archer City, TX. #paleontology #fossils @PerotMuseum
