I'm excited beyond words to be able to be one of the leaders of the #Gonzaga in #Chimfunshi study abroad course in #Zambia 🇿🇲 this summer, and in honor of the region and its #paleontological #heritage, my #FossilFriday posts for the next few months are going to feature #fossils from the countries of the #Zambezi Basin: #Angola 🇦🇴 , #Botswana 🇧🇼 , #Malawi 🇲🇼 , #Mozambique 🇲🇿 , #Namibia 🇳🇦 , #Tanzania 🇹🇿 , #Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 , and, of course, Zambia. The first post is forthcoming, and suggestions are welcome!

Still on the topic of local(-ish) #paleontology, while it's not exactly of the #comic or #graphicnovel persuasion, Kirk Johnson & #RayTroll's #fossil travelogues #CruisinTheFossilFreeway & #CruisinTheFossilCoastline freely mix cartoons and paleoart alongside photographic documentation of their travels throughout North America, visiting people and places important to our #paleontological understanding, even (or especially) if they are under-appreciated.
