This blog may help people explore some of the 'hidden' issues involved in certain media treatments of environmental and scientific issues. Using personal digital images, it's also intended to emphasise seasonal (and other) changes in natural history of the Swansea (South Wales) area. The material should help participants in field-based modules and people generally interested in the natural world. The views are wholly those of the author.

'Swallowed' by a Dinosaur
Dinosaurs can still be dangerous nowadays. The body of a young man was found inside the body of a papier-mache model of a Stegosaurus (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/may/24/missing-man-found-dead-inside-spanish-dinosaur-sta). The sad event happened in Santa Coloma de Gramenet near Barcelona (Spain). It seems likely the man died, whilst trying to retrieve his mobile phone from a leg of the statue. All very inappropriate, as the Stegosaurus was a plant eater not a carnivore.
