Description
South America today is home to some of the most incredible ecosystems on the planet, and its fossil record is even more varied and fantastic. In this episode, we explore the history of the continent from its early formation to its long Cenozoic isolation, and we’ll highlight some of the strangest ancient creatures – especially its bizarre mammals – that have called South America home.
In the news: ancient ape locomotion, a Polish pliosaur, post-extinction Colorado, and one really old dinosaur.
