Episode: Episode 61 - Behavior in the Fossil Record
Description: It’s easy to see how fossils can teach us what ancient animals looked like, or how they evolved. But what about the ways they moved, ate, socialized, reproduced? In this episode, we explore the innovative ways paleontologists have devised to interpret the behavior of ancient animals. From their bones, their tracks, their living relatives, and modern clever experimentation, we can come to understand more than you’d ever imagine about behavior in the fossil record.
In the news: a Denisovan jaw, a new bat-winged dinosaur, a cave of wonders, and a flapping robot.
