Welcome to Thedinosaurs.org, your destination for all things dinosaur-related. Founded in 2022, our mission is to provide a comprehensive, engaging, and educational platform for dinosaur enthusiasts of all ages. Our team is composed of passionate people with great interest and fascination for dinosaurs. We are dedicated to bringing the fascinating world of dinosaurs to your fingertips.
At Thedinosaurs.org, we believe that learning about dinosaurs is not just about studying the past but also about understanding the evolution of life on Earth and appreciating the wonder of natural history. We strive to deliver accurate, up-to-date, and accessible information about various dinosaur species, their habitats, behaviors, and the scientific discoveries that continue to unveil their mysteries. From the mighty Tyrannosaurus Rex to the gentle herbivorous Brachiosaurus, we cover a wide range of topics that cater to both the curious beginner and the seasoned dinosaur enthusiast.
We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to explore and learn about these magnificent creatures that once roamed our planet. Join us on this exciting journey back in time as we continue to dig deeper into the world of dinosaurs.
Our knowledge about dinosaurs is ever-evolving, and that brings with it some inherent challenges when writing about them. You can read more about our approach to research, fact-checking, and editorial process here.
Our Team
Regan Douglas
(Subject Matter Expert)
Regan Douglas is a vertebrate paleontologist in Finland, but her interest in paleontology started when she was growing up in a limestone mining town in the United States. There she collected fossils like crinoids, brachiopods, corals, and shark teeth. This part of the States was an ocean during the time of dinosaurs, but Regan still loved dinosaurs as a kid (don’t we all?)
She then attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and received her BSc in Geology with a paleontology focus on Cenozoic mammals. During her studies, she worked at Ashfall Fossil Beds State Historical Park for two years. Regan spent her time there educating the public on the history of the site, paleontology, geology, and biology, as well as excavating 12 million-year-old fossils and working in the lab doing fossil prep work. She also worked in the UNSM collections doing basic fossil prep and organizational work in the collections and archives.
Currently, Regan is studying mammoth teeth at the University of Helsinki in order to receive her MSc in Palaeontology and Global Change. During her time here, she’s also interned at Luonnontieteellinen Museo in (modern zoology) museum collections, doing more organizational and database work. Her main interests moving forward in this field include tooth morphology, econometrics, and collections management, and to inspire others to pursue this wonderful field of study!
Joey Arboleda

Joey Arboleda, is a current PhD Student at the University of Crete, Greece. He obtained his Master’s Degree in Aquaculture, Environment, and Society as a fully funded scholar by the Erasmus Mundus. He started working in the field of Marine Biology research in 2012 on several research studies with Seaweeds, Planktons, Crustacean, and Fish Health Management.
Joey is another dinosaur enthusiast and though never having worked with paleontology, is great at research and fact-checking. He reviews information critically from an academic perspective and ensures we deal in verifiable facts where they exist.
