Various news items from the 2011 society of vertebrate palaeontology.. (Unfortunately I'm only following it on twitter!)
CT Scans of Permafrost Mammoth juveniles
King of the Lumpers, Jack Horner, may also be suggesting Kosmoceratops is a young Chasmosaurus find..

No more 'Sparkleraptors' then!
"Analysis of fossilised melanosomes in isolated archaeopteryx wing feather indicate it was black"
