Podcasts about hell creek formation

(image source: https://www.deviantart.com/tuomaskoivurinne/art/Saurian-Anzu-778336693) Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Don Hall discuss Anzu, a dinosaur that looks so damn much like a bird it's hard to believe it's not in the clade of theropods that evolved into them. Them dinos really wanted them feathers. From the late Cretaceous, this 13-foot oviraptorosaur lived alongside some famous heavy-hitters like T. rex and Triceratops, and may I say the name Anzu really stands out among those, and not really in a good way. “Here in the Hell Creek Formation, we've got Tyrannosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Triceratops, Edmontosaurus, and… Anzu!” See, it doesn't work!

Comets, asteroids and ice ages oh my! In the Earth's 4.6 Billion years in existence, and the time that life has habituated on it (3.7-3.8billion years), there has been six… mass extinctions. In this episode, we plan to cover them all! From the Ordovician all the way to the Holocene that you… yes you, are living in right now. In three fact packed segments, our Host Sam Stanford and Guest Stars Katherine Parsons and Trevor Rempert plan to quickly address how we know these mass extinction events happened, how they happened, how much disappearance they caused, and finally….. how they changed the course of life! History, paleontology, climatology, physics, astronomy, geology and many other topics will be highlighted in the discussion. Guest Stars: Katherine Parsons; Katherine is a paleo-artist, paleontologist, and geology student graduating in December from Middle Tennessee University and has been working for 4 years at the Earth Experience Museum in Murfreesboro, TN. Katie focuses her studies and work on the late Cretaceous dinosaurs in the Hell Creek Formation and specializes in their fossil reproduction. You can find some of her work on Instagram @katie.digs.dinos. Trevor Rempert; Trevor is a Master's student at Case Western Reserve University studying Medical Physiology. Prior to his current education, he received his undergraduate degree at Northwestern University in Biomedical Engineering. In addition to studying medicine, Trevor is an avid avocational paleontologist whose hobby has taken him across the United States in search of fossils. Trevor's most recent project involves studying the biodiversity of mosasaurs in the Late Cretaceous of Morocco just prior to the K-T extinction.

Scientist Mark Armitage shares how dinosaur soft tissue was first discovered by Mary Schweitzer and Dr. Jack Horner in the Hell Creek Formation of Montana. Mark shares how he followed Mary's research and discovered more soft tissue in a triceratops horn, showing how soft tissue is plentiful and cannot last for millions of years. He shows how the Global Flood only a few thousand years ago is the answer for soft dinosaur tissue and why evolutionists are without answers for their long ages worldview. @font-face {font-family:"MS Mincho"; panose-1:2 2 6 9 4 2 5 8 3 4; mso-font-alt:"ＭＳ 明朝"; mso-font-charset:128; mso-generic-font-family:modern; mso-font-pitch:fixed; mso-font-signature:-536870145 1791491579 134217746 0 131231 0;}@font-face {font-family:"Cambria Math"; panose-1:2 4 5 3 5 4 6 3 2 4; mso-font-charset:0; mso-generic-font-family:roman; mso-font-pitch:variable; mso-font-signature:3 0 0 0 1 0;}@font-face {font-family:Cambria; panose-1:2 4 5 3 5 4 6 3 2 4; mso-font-charset:0; mso-generic-font-family:roman; mso-font-pitch:variable; mso-font-signature:-536870145 1073743103 0 0 415 0;}@font-face {font-family:"@MS Mincho"; panose-1:2 2 6 9 4 2 5 8 3 4; mso-font-charset:128; mso-generic-font-family:modern; mso-font-pitch:fixed; mso-font-signature:-536870145 1791491579 134217746 0 131231 0;}p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-unhide:no; mso-style-qformat:yes; mso-style-parent:""; margin:0in; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Cambria",serif; mso-ascii-font-family:Cambria; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family:"MS Mincho"; mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-fareast; mso-hansi-font-family:Cambria; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi;}.MsoChpDefault {mso-style-type:export-only; mso-default-props:yes; font-family:"Cambria",serif; mso-ascii-font-family:Cambria; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family:"MS Mincho"; mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-fareast; mso-hansi-font-family:Cambria; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi;}div.WordSection1 {page:WordSection1;}

Garfield County’s Clayton Phipps has made a living off the land in more ways than one. For years it was as a cowboy, which he still is, but now-a days he’s more widely known as the Dino Cowboy for his rare finds of dinosaurs in the Hell Creek Formation of eastern Montana. Clayton is featured…

HELENA, Mont. (AP) — About 66 million years after two dinosaurs died apparently locked in battle on the plains of modern-day Montana, an unusual fight over who owns the entangled fossils has become a multimillion-dollar issue that hinges on the legal definition of “mineral.” The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled last week that the “Dueling Dinosaurs” located on private land are minerals both scientifically and under mineral rights laws. The fossils belong both to the owners of the property where they were found and two brothers who kept two-thirds of the mineral rights to the land once owned by their father, a three-judge panel said in a split decision. Eric Edward Nord, an attorney for the property owners, said the case is complex in dealing with who owns what’s on top of land vs. the minerals that make it up and addresses a unique question of mineral rights law related to dinosaur fossils that no court in the country has taken up before. His clients own part of a ranch in the Hell Creek Formation of eastern Montana that’s rich with prehistoric fossils, including the Dueling Dinosaurs whose value had been appraised at $7 million to $9 million. Lige and Mary Ann Murray bought it from George Severson, who also transferred part of his interest in the ranch to his sons, Jerry and Robert Severson. In 2005, the brothers sold their surface rights to the Murrays, but retained the mineral rights, court documents said. At the time, neither side suspected valuable dinosaur fossils were buried on the ranch, court records said. A few months later, amateur paleontologist Clayton Phipps discovered the carnivore and herbivore apparently locked in battle. Imprints of the dinosaurs’ skin were also in the sediment. A dispute arose in 2008 when the Seversons learned about the fossils — a 22-foot-long (7-meter-long) theropod and a 28-foot-long (9-meter-long) ceratopsian. The Murrays sought a court order saying they owned the Dueling Dinosaurs, while the Seversons asked a judge to find that fossils are part of the property’s mineral estate and that they were entitled to partial ownership. It had wider implications because the ranch is in an area that has numerous prehistoric creatures preserved in layers of clay and sandstone. Paleontologists have unearthed thousands of specimens now housed in museums and used for research. But fossils discovered on private land can be privately owned, frustrating paleontologists who say valuable scientific information is being lost. During the court case, the Dueling Dinosaurs were put up for auction in New York in November 2013. Bidding topped out at $5.5 million, less than the reserve price of $6 million. A nearly complete Tyrannosaurus rex found on the property was sold to a Dutch museum for several million dollars in 2014, with the proceeds being held in escrow pending the outcome of the court case. Other fossils found on the ranch also have been sold, including a triceratops skull that brought in more than $200,000, court records said. The 9th Circuit decision on Nov. 6 overturned a federal judge’s 2016 opinion that fossils were not included in the ordinary definition of “mineral” because not all fossils with the same mineral composition are considered valuable. “The composition of minerals found in the fossils does not make them valuable or worthless,” U.S. District Judge Susan Watters of Billings wrote. “Instead, the value turns on characteristics other than mineral composition, such as the completeness of the specimen, the species of dinosaur and how well it is preserved.” U.S. District Judge Susan Watters of Billings wrote. “Instead, the value turns on characteristics other than mineral composition, such as the completeness of the specimen, the species of dinosaur and how well it is preserved.” The Seversons had appealed, arguing previous court cases determined that naturally occurring materials that have some special value meet the definition of minerals. Attorneys for the Murr...

Dinosaur of the day Fruitadens, the smallest known ornithischian at under 2 pounds and 3 feet in length. Interview with Sean Rubin, the author & illustrator of Bolivar. The graphic novel where Bolivar the T. rex roams New York City and nobody notices because they are all so busy. Sean is also the co-founder and Chief Creative Officer of MNY Group. He can be found on Instagram and twitter @SeanCRubin & online at seanrubin.com In dinosaur news this week: A new experiment of Jurassic plant growth and sauropod digestion shows that the ecosystem could hold more dinosaurs than previously thought. A new study on fossilized melanosomes calls into question previous studies on dinosaur coloration. A team from the University of Kansas is working on excavating a juvenile T. rex in the Hell Creek Formation. Late Jurassic footprints are being investigated in paving stones near hotsprings in China. Sauropod footprints from the early Cretaceous have been documented with photogrammetry in the UK. A father and son team opened a dinosaur center in Springerville, Arizona. A temporary inflatable green sauropod is in the Bayville dinosaur’s place while it’s being repaired. Myles Garrett from the Cleveland Browns recently traded his signed No. 95 jersey for a dinosaur toy. A new South Korean film came out this summer, called Along with the Gods: The Last 49 Days, which featured some dinosaurs. YouTube video “The Most Disturbing Death Scene in Jurassic Park History - Michael Crichton’s Jurassic Park.” highlights the scene where compys kill a baby. College Humor created a video showing Jurassic Park scenes with other prehistoric creatures. The New Zealand Mint has a colored, official, Jurassic Park 25th Anniversary 1oz silver coin for sale for $85 USD.

In May of 2015, Jason Love and Luke Tufts – two friends who met at the University of Washington – went fossil hunting around the Hell Creek Formation in Northeastern Montana, a region known for its fossil sites. On their last day, the two went out on government land to cover some more ground before heading home. “Fifteen minutes into it Jason walked onto to a big boulder with some bones in it,” Tufts said. Those bones ended up being the remains of a Tyrannosaurus rex. Scientists at the museum are now in the process of revealing the fossilized skull of the T. rex. It’s been encased in rock for more than 66 million years. “I’m not an employee of the Burke Museum nor do I have any training in paleontology,” Love said. They did take a paleontology class when they were undergrads together. Love calls it “Dinosaurs 100.” “We learned a lot,” he said. “But the tests were very easy.” Now, the two enjoy searching for fossils in their free time. At the museum, what is normally a behind the scenes

00:00:00 - Old friend of the show Brian Switek returns with a ton of paleo to be talked about. Things begin with a new study of the bones of the Pliocene aquatic sloth, which turn out to have pachyosteosclerosis! Don't worry, we explain what that means and why it matters. (Hint: think marine iguana.)   00:22:04 - Sloths entered the drink, and so do we. Brian enjoys his own homemade apple cider. Patrick's drink isn't homemade, but it is local in the form of some Bowman Brothers Virginia Bourbon. Whereas Ryan sups from faraway lands, enjoying some illicit Cuban beers, Cristal and Bucanero Fuerte.   00:28:31 - And speaking of things from faraway lands, this week's trailer covers, in quite some depth, everything going on both science and not in the preview of the hotly anticipated Godzilla remake!   00:46:26 - To the shock of basically nobody, Ryan is upset about the headlines for a newly described dinosaur, but Switek is here to calm him down. Turns out, this new oviraptor from the Hell Creek Formation is notable for reasons besides a catchy headline.   01:08:03 - PaleoPOWs are a lot like headlines, you rarely get what you feel you were promised. Brian begins by telling us a bit about his latest book, My Beloved Brontosaurus, which you should totally get. Then we tackle a question from Abigail A. about taking a vacation to help out the science of paleontology. We suggest getting good with your local museum, and using a bit of Google Fu to find the right spot for you. Patrick rounds things out by thanking Wade W. for setting up a recurring donation. Thanks, Wade! And don't forget to check out Ryan in his role as member of the Animation Brain Trust over on iFanboy.     Thanks for listening and be sure to check out the Brachiolope Media Network for more great science podcasts!     Music for this week's show: Your Bones - Of Monsters and Men I Am a Cider Drinker - The Wurzels Godzilla - Blue Oyster Cult Over the Eggshells - The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
