Data is critical. If you don't have the data, then what can you say.

Am speaking at this event later today on the evidence for a mass extinction event of #megafauna in the Late Pleistocene (ca. 40-ish thousand years ago) of Australia. **SPOILER ALERT** The current data just don't stack-up.

Just heard the tickets have been sold-out, but the event will be live-streamed here: The event runs 10a - 5p (Aussie east coast time). Frank and I are 3rd in the morning session. @TEDTalks #TEDxUQ #TEDxUQ2023 #TEDxTalk.

IT'S TIME TO UNLEASH THE BEAST. Well, Frank the Diprotodon, that is. Frank and I are co-presenting a TED talk tomorrow for UQ's 2023 event. We'll be talking about megafauna and Ice Age ecosystems of Oz. #FossilFriday @UQ_News @TEDTalks #TEDxUQ #TEDxUQ2023 #TEDxTalk @UQscience

We've known about it for a few years but have not been able to get it out (or figure out what it is). It's in a slightly awkward position and the surrounding rock is solid like concrete. It was found with colleagues from @ARCHE_Griffith , @itbofficial, and @UQ_News . 2/2.

ATTENTION SKULL / FOSSIL EXPERTS! #WhatIsItWednesday. Anybody know what this skull is?. It's Late Pleistocene (around 100 ka) and is cemented into the wall of a cave in the Padang Highland of W. Sumatra, Indonesia. Interactive @Sketchfab 3D model 👉 . 1/2

And on top of that, I'll show you how to:. ✨ Use PowerPoint slides as Zoom backgrounds.✨ Infuse addictive engagement with surveys and games.✨ Set-up your very own portable document camera integrated with Zoom .✨ And much more!. 💪BE THERE OR BE SQUARE! 💪 @UQ_News @uqITaLI.

Confession time: I'm bloody love #Zoom! 😍. If you're tired of it for online #teaching, I've got you covered. Join me this Friday for a @uqITaLI session on TURBOCHARGING ZOOM! Let's make your online lectures engaging and unforgettable. #UQ #R2Teach.

I know of at least one cast of the specimen in an Australian museum, but it was so good to see the original at @itbofficial. Here is a 3D @Sketchfab model I made; I hope it will be useful to others! #FossilFriday #marsupial #megafauna. 3/3.

The specimen is from near Jaypura, West Papua (Irian Jaya) and was originally described in 1985. #FossilFriday. Re-examination later showed that it is synonymous with Nototherium watutense, an equally weird and very poorly known diprotodontid. Age? Maybe Plio/Pleistocene 2/3

I was very lucky to see first-hand the holotype of Zygomaturus nimborensis recently. This is one of the wonderfully weird, but sadly extinct, diprotodontid marsupial #megafauna of New Guinea. A #FossilFriday mini thread and link to an interactive 3D model 👇👇👇 1/3
