This is why we need more knowledge of #FossilConservation. Let me tell you about the 10 agents of deterioration at work during a disaster, fire being one of them... #MuseuNacional #LutoMuseuNacional Long #Thread 1/

I've seen some posts saying "fossils are rock, so the fire can't hurt them." This is incorrect. Firstly, building fires result in walls and ceilings collapsing, crushing items below. Also, fire will crack and split rocks.

Some friends came back to say hello this week! The Age of Reptiles mural, completed by Rudolph Zallinger in 1947, has been behind protection for the last three years. It will be back on view when we reopen with free admission early next year. #YalePeabody2024
