A new study on the raptorial appendages of Anomalocaris

[Faelrin]

Saw this from a new video put out by the Ben G Thomas youtube account. Really glad to see a study on these things for once, and how much they could move. Interesting implications for the hunting strategy and diet as well, giving us a better idea of what this thing was doing 500 million years ago. Does not appear to be paywalled thankfully for those interested.

I can't read it. It just brings me to a page where it demands my email.

i can't read it either.   Is the conclusion still that Anomalocaris could not crush trilobite shells?

[Faelrin]

Strange. Says it is open access for me.

Weird, works for me. Perhaps it's based on number of papers read on the site previously?
