Dinosaur of the day Allosaurus, the quintessential (Late) Jurassic theropod.

In dinosaur news this week:

• Free dinosaur event with the Colorado Northwestern Community College Paleo Crew on June 28

Some of the topics from our Allosaurus discussion:

• There are multiple species, including A. fragilis and A. jimmadseni
• Debate over the species A. europaeus
• Whether A. europaeus could be A. fragilis
• There's also a new species (and no more Saurophaganax): A. anax
• Plus, we get into its Bone Wars history, the Cleveland-Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry, other former species, its hunting and scavenging habits, all the pathologies, what its habitat was like, future research, and more

Dire wolves are the subject of the latest episode of I Know Paleo, an exclusive series for Triceratops patrons and up. We release new episodes (selected by our patrons) monthly.
