As Brazilians, we can tell how common this situation is - a random dude finds a fossil and sells it, hoping to make a pretty penny out of it and make ends meet. The problem, though, is that said fossil usually ends in collectors hands; people who will never allow a real expert to study that discovery, let alone publish an article about it. Thankfully, this time things went a different route, as a police raid successfully seized an uncommonly well-preserved Tupandactylus fossil, giving scientists the opportunity of dwelling on it a tad more. Join us today as we discuss the details of this news and the impact of such a finding.
