Podcasts about Megafauna

TJ and Kris open chapter 9 of Genesis with a look at the blessing that God gives Noah after the flood. Then they talk about how the atmosphere in ancient times might have been conducive to gigantic living things.

Brad C. Anderson lives with his wife and puppy in Vancouver, Canada.He teaches undergraduate business courses at a local university andresearches organizational wisdom in blithe defiance of the fact mostpeople do not think you can put those two words in the samesentence without irony. Previously, he worked in the biotech sector,where he made drugs for a living (legally!).His stories have appeared in a variety of publications. His short story “Naïve Gods” waslonglisted for a 2017 Sunburst Award for Excellence in Canadian Literature of the Fantastic. Itwas published in the anthology Lazarus Risen, which was itself nominated for an Aurora Award.Ashme's Song, the latest science fiction novel by Vancouver writerBrad C. Anderson (author of Duatero), is a gritty, action-filled, far-future cyberpunk-infused science fiction tale about resistance,rebellion, and civil war—and the terrible toll it takes onindividuals and families. It releases December 17 fromShadowpaw Press.“Ashme's Song is a science fiction story exploring family andheroism at a time of civil war,” Anderson says. “I wrote this bookbecause I wanted to explore the tension between wanting to fightfor your people versus fleeing with your family.”“Ashme's Song is a gritty, thoroughly engaging, and thought-provoking exploration of timeless themes of oppression,resistance, and family ties, combined with fascinatingworldbuilding and a strong cyberpunk element,” says Edward Willett, publisher and editor ofShadowpaw Press.During the course of this, Brad teaches me what Cyberpunk v Steampunk are. We also discuss re-introducing Megafauna and bacteria v humans.

Check the website here: http://enlites.com/   Dr. Thaís Pansani is an Associate Researcher at the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History. Her main research questions are about human interaction with the Pleistocene megafauna in the Americas and the peopling of the Americas. She is interested in questions like: When did humans arrive in the Americas? Did humans interact with the Pleistocene megafauna? What were the environmental and ecological conditions in which these megamammals lived? What were the causes and consequences of the megafauna extinction in the American continent, especially in South America? How can we identify traces of human interaction in extinct animal bones through taphonomy and zooarchaeology?   In this episode, we focus on H. sapiens' migrations to (and within) the Americas. We discuss the timing of the migrations, whether we were the only hominin species to get there, and why we migrate. We then talk about megafauna in the Americas; interactions between humans and megafauna (with a focus on hunting); zooarchaeology, and the study of marks on animal bones; and the extinction of megafauna might have been the result of human activity. Finally, we discuss some of the most interesting unanswered questions in paleoanthropology. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, DAN DEMETRIOU, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, EDWARD HALL, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ANTON ERIKSSON, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Is “crushing joy” a thing? That's the only way I can describe And So I Watch You From Afar and, especially, their newest album Megafauna. There are few bands as loud as the Belfast boys, but the chords that fall down like an Everest avalanche are all major, the electrifying guitar lines soar and crunch with equal ferocity. Megafauna is getting punched in the face and smiling. But that's what ASIWYFA have done their entire careers. What this record truly does is balance the difference between their moments of miraculous joy and all out brawls. Two part rager “Mother Belfast” is as seismic as anything they've ever done, but comes right before “Years Ago,” a nostalgic ode to every bar the band's ever played, which sounds like a beer soaked lullaby. That's the duality of the world's best rock band. We interviewed Rory from the band here on the Woodhouse.

The National Park System is an incredible reservoir of wildlife, from charismatic animals such as grizzly bears, bison and wolves, to animals such as moose, and pronghorn and sea turtles that, while not usually labeled as charismatic, are indeed just that.   Wolves certainly fall under the charismatic megafauna classification. They're majestic and mystifying, and perhaps even lend some romanticism to your backcountry adventures if you are lucky enough to hear a pack howling in chorus after sundown.    While it's well-known that Yellowstone National Park and Isle Royale National Park have wolf populations, you might not know that Voyageurs National Park also has a resident population of the predators. To learn more about the wolves at Voyageurs National Park and their behavior, we're joined today by Dr. Thomas Gable, the project lead for the Voyageurs Wolf Project. 

Join Rory and I as we catch up with him while the band was in Chicago on tour. Rory and I talk about the bands latest album, Megafauna, and what the mindset of the band was having to follow up such an ambitious concept album like Jettison. Rory also shares how it's been for the band to try and make a point to explore the cities they tour in and explore the local culture, and we get into the real question....where were they eating while in Chicago. We talk about maybe there being a companion to Megafauna down the road, and more in this quick chat with the ASIWYFA guitarist.

This week, we're rebroadcasting an episode from the Resources Radio archive while the team is on a break through the rest of August. We'll be back in September with new episodes; in the meantime, enjoy this throwback and poke around the archive at Resources.org for more topics you might be interested in. In this week's episode rerun, host Margaret Walls talks with John D. Leshy, an emeritus professor at the University of California College of the Law, San Francisco, about the history of public lands in the United States. Leshy discusses the legislation that enabled the creation and conservation of public lands, common myths about public lands, and how the government may open up public lands for mining or clean energy projects in the future.

Dr. Joanne BallardJoanne has a PhD in Geography from the University of Tennessee with specializations in Biogeography and Quaternary Environments, advised by Dr Sally Horn, palynologist.  She has a M.S. in Geology from the University of Cincinnati, studying under glaciologist Dr. Thomas Lowell.  She has also worked as an Archaeologist for the Tennessee Valley Authority as a Database Analyst and Mapping expert.  In addition, Joanne worked for the US Census Bureau as an Analyst and Cartographic Technician, giving technical support, troubleshooting, and training personnel on addressing projects.  Currently, Joanne is serving as a Naturalist at a local museum, and working with Czech colleagues on YDB research led by Dr. Evzen Stuchlik at the Czech Academy of the Sciences.  Joanne is a catastrophist, and collaborates with the Comet Research Group.Joanne has been intrigued with the causation for the megafauna extinction since the 1990s.  She met Rick Firestone at the Mammoth Conference in 2005 at Hot Springs, SD.  When he and others presented their hypothesis on a bolide strike as causation for the Younger Dryas onset (Firestone et al. 2007), she wanted to look for evidence. Lake mud contains various proxies that help us gain insights into past environments, such as charcoal (wildfires), pollen and macrofossils (vegetation), diatoms, chironomids (climate) and chemistry--isotopes and elements. Lake mud is considered less disturbed (such as by roots, earthworms, freeze/thaw) than terrestrial sediment or soil.  At UC, she and her team drilled through the ice to collect cores from four lakes near Flint, Michigan, two of which (Slack and Swift Lakes) are adjacent to the Gainey archaeological site mentioned by Firestone et al. (2007).  At UT, she studied lake sediments from sites in the southeastern USA.   She discovered a new proxy for wildfires--possibly catastrophic wildfires--which are siliceous aggregates. These form in wood ash.  After a tree burns to ash, the silica phytoliths that were part of the structure of the tree are deposited with the wood ash. When that highly alkaline ash gets wet, it causes the phytoliths to dissolve, and the silica gel percolates down through the ash and then hardens up around silt or other particles in the sediment.  Five of six lakes sampled across eastern North America showed siliceous aggregates around the time of the onset of the Younger Dryas, suggesting widespread, catastrophic wildfires.  However, more work needs to be done to support this interpretation.Joanne has also researched Usselo Horizon sites (typically YDB-age black mats) in The Netherlands and Belgium to understand the events that triggered the onset of the Younger Dryas (12,900 - 11,600 BP).  At four Usselo horizon sites across the NL and BE, she found fused quartz, soot, charcoal, melt glass and sponge spicules.See her PPT presentation "Usselo Horizon Presentation" here:https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Joanne-Ballard/researchDid humans tame woolly mammoths?  See the discussion here with 821 postshttps://www.researchgate.net/topicshttps://www.researchgate.net/post/Did-humans-tame-woolly-mammoths-or-other-megafaunaJoanne's dissertation can be accessed and downloaded for free here:https://trace.tennessee.edu/utk_graddiss/3492/Evidence of Late Quaternary Fires from Charcoal and Siliceous Aggregates in Lake Sediments in the Eastern U.S.A.Her MS thesis can be accessed for free here: https://etd.ohiolink.edu/acprod/odb_etd/etd/r/1501/10?clear=10&p10_accession_num=ucin1250268463A Lateglacial Paleofire Record for East-central MichiganRick Firestone's paper:https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.0706977104    Evidence for an extraterrestrial impact 12,900 years ago that contributed to the megafaunal extinctions and the Younger Dryas cooling-- Sent with Tuta; enjoy secure & ad-free emails: https://tuta.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

Dinosaurs and prehistoric megafauna have been capturing human imagination for centuries. Certain myths may well have been partially shaped by the discovery of dinosaur bones, whilst our progressing understanding of the dinosaurs 180 million year reign and how it ended, has coloured our understanding of our own place in the natural order.  No surprise then that dinosaurs should appear in so much fiction - both written and staged or filmed. This week, Jules and Madeleine take a look at why these creatures hold such fascination for us, and why they have bled into fantasy and science fiction in a way that cannot be erased. Under the microscope this week: Jurassic Park - Michael Crichton, The Palaeontologist - Luke Dumas, Dinotopia and many more.    Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic 

It's the start of our sixth season! And we've got some projects going on. The Traveling Light anthology, which we Kickstarted -- with the help of many of you listeners! -- at the start of the fifth season, is now almost complete! We've finished the page proofs and are about to turn this into a Real Book. In this episode, you'll get to hear from the anthology authors about their amazing, exciting, super-creative contributions! And if you missed the Kickstarter, fear not! It will be available for purchase in both physical and ebook form, and you'll be able to pre-order that soon. So what are we launching this year? A Patreon! That's right, we are finally creating a way for our magnificent, lovely listeners to support the podcast. We're hoping this will just help us cover some basic costs of podcast hosting, graphic design, maybe even putting together a Real Website! And in exchange, patrons will get some exclusive content and merch. We've got four tiers: Beetles, Crustaceans, Megafauna, and Kaiju. If you'd like to help us keep doing what we're doing (and maybe even zhuzh it up a bit more), check them out! And of course, this podcast is its own ongoing massive project! We are so, so grateful to all of our amazing guests who have joined us to talk about so many different aspects of worldbuilding. We're thrilled to be able to have these conversations about craft and imagination, and we're delighted that so many listeners enjoy it, too.  And hey! If you want to see us, we're gonna be some places! Hopefully the full team will be in Glasgow for WorldCon, August 8-12, and some of us will be in Austin for ArmadilloCon, September 6-8. (And if you'd like to help make sure Marshall gets to WorldCon, he's running a GoFundMe!) Voting is also still ongoing for the Hugo Awards, and we would love your consideration for Best Fancast! Because winning in Scotland would be really fun. Thanks for all your support! Here's to another great season!

I can't even begin to put into words all the feelings this movie gave me, not good feelings mind you. I thought that there were some poorly written character moments and some really big missed opportunities. All in all it was actually very nice to have a film that Dylan and I disapproved of and just let ourselves go wild on it.Our Links:Ian Wolffe

World Wildlife Fund. World Wrestling Federation. Westdeutsches Werbefernsehen. Als wir Kinder waren, irritierte uns die Mehrfachbelegung des Drei-Buchstaben-Kürzels "WWF" völlig. Höchste Zeit also, diese Verwirrung in Form einer Podcast-Folge zu vollenden und dabei diversen Retro-Artefakten Denkmäler zu setzen: Heinz Sielmann & Jürgen von der Lippe, Hulk Hogan & dem Undertaker, Duplo & Hanuta, Pandas & Robotern. Wer wollte nicht schon immer wissen, was es mit der charismatischen Megafauna auf sich hat? Oder abtauchen in den Stickerwahn der Achtziger? Oder den Unterschied zwischen einer Clothesline und einem Figure-Four-Leglock erfahren? Vor allem aber huldigen wir dem WWF-Club, nach Feuersteins Nacht einer weiteren Produktion unseres geliebten "Dritten", dem WDR, und damit einer Show, deren anarchische Spontaneität uns bis heute inspiriert und die Herzen wärmt.

Once upon a time, Scotland was amongst the most biodiverse regions of Europe. However, over the last few centuries, Scotland, like the rest of the United Kingdom, lost most of its biodiversity. Megafauna, such as the European bison, brown bear, gray wolf, and European beavers, were all hunted to extinction. Moreover, the Scottish Highlands have also experienced rampant habitat degradation and loss due to agricultural expansion and urbanization. With a lack of large predators, herbivores, many of which have been introduced, have proliferated across the United Kingdom to unsustainable populations, further exacerbating habitat degradation.However, there is still hope for Scotland's wilderness. Over the last half-century, various reintroduction projects have proven to have found success, not only in Scotland but across the UK. This includes the reintroduction of red kites and white-tailed eagles in the late 20th century. More recently, beavers have made a strong comeback to the region.In this episode, I interview Peter Cairns, who is the Executive Director of SCOTLAND: The Big Picture. We talk about their valiant efforts to reintroduce the Eurasian Lynx to the Scottish Highlands. We also discuss the possibility of wolves and bears making a return to the country. We also talk in-depth about the organization's projects, including the Carignoms Cranes and Painting Scotland Yellow campaigns.If you enjoyed this episode, do not forget to share and subscribe!

In this episode, Dr. Michael Crawford discusses the essential role of the essential fatty acids DHA and ARA in the evolution and health of the human brain. Dr. Crawford is visiting professor at Imperial College in London, and has been Director of the Institute of Brain Chemistry and Human Nutrition since 1990. For his pioneering discovery of the role of DHA in the brain in 1971, and its importance in prenatal nutrition, Michael was elected by his peers to the Hall of Fame at the Royal Society of Medicine in 2010. He has published more than 300 peer-reviewed scientific papers and 4 books, most recently "The Shrinking Brain", which documents the evolutionary evidence for the role of the marine food web in human evolution, and the societal threats posed to brain health and intelligence posed by recent changes to the food supply and the human diet.Dr. Crawford highlights the essential functions of DHA and ARA in cell regulation, immune response, and vision, and their importance in brain growth and construction. He emphasizes the significance of the marine food web in providing an abundance of DHA and the role of the combination of marine and land food webs in human brain growth. Dr. Crawford challenges the dominant theory of that humans brains size increased as a result of hunting in African savannahs, and presents evidence that access to marine foods at the shoreline drove human brain development.Dr. Crawford discusses discuss the subsequent decline in brain size since the advent of agriculture, and particularly with modern diets. He emphasizes the importance of maternal and prenatal nutrition, and the ongoing need for DHA and arachidonic acid in brain development. The discussion ends with the prospects for developing marine agriculture to ensure good mental health of future generations.ReferencesBook: Crawford and Marsh The Shrinking Brain and the Global Mental Health Crisis, 2023Publications:  http://www.imperial.ac.uk/people/michael.crawfordHere is a guide to topics discussed in this podcast episode:Time     Topic00:00     Introduction and Background 01:44     The Role of DHA and ARA in the Evolution of the Brain06:12     DHA in Early Single Cellular Organisms07:45     The Universality of DHA in Animal Eyes and Brains09:12     The Universality of DHA and ARA in Mammalian Brains11:24     The Decrease of Brain to Body Size Ratio Across Species18:16     How Access to Seafood Explains the Larger Brains of Humans21:45.    Rebuttal of the Savannah Hunting Theory of Human Evolution26:10     The Extinction of Megafauna and Human Brain Growth27:47     The Decrease in Human Brain Size Since Agriculture29:47     The Importance of Iodine and Marine Minerals and Vitamins33:36     Evolutionary Mismatch and Epigenetic Impact of Modern Diets38:35     The Importance of Maternal and Prenatal Nutrition41:25     Nutritional Requirements for Brain Development into Adulthood46:50     Benefits of Mussels, Oysters and Fish for Brain Health47:56     Farmed Fish vs. Wild Caught Fish49:18     The Potential of Marine Agriculture to Ensure Global Mental Health55:19     Michael Crawford's Current Research Get full access to Ancestral Health Today Substack at ancestralhealth.substack.com/subscribe

Mountain lions are an incredibly charismatic animal on landscapes within, and adjacent to, the National Park System. But they're seldom seen because of their nocturnal tendencies.   There recently was a new report that focused on a comprehensive estimate of mountain lions in California, and the number is much smaller than many had thought it was.   To discuss California's mountain lion population, and efforts to protect that population, our guest today is Dr. Veronica Yovovich, conservation scientist at Panthera, the global wild cat conservation organization. 

The crew of the Megafauna is going to have to throw all sorts of words together if they want to escape from Towasanga. Where will they go? Which piece of man trash pursuing them will get an appropriately named mobile suit? And what unlikely weapon will a commander use to harass her ship captain? The answers to all these questions, and more, can be found within!

LOOP 8.1: Dave and Tom introduce episode 8 and round of this special series on Life On Our Planet. We talk about our favourite scenes and reflect on our time working on the documentary and how our perspectives of documentary making has changed. We'd love your feedback on this podcast series. Life On Our Planet (LOOP) is a new 8-part series created for Netflix by Silverback Films and Amblin Television. This Steven Spielberg produced series, narrated by Morgan Freeman, is hugely ambitious in its scope, telling the story of life throughout the whole Phanerozoic Eon. Ancient organisms and environments are painstakingly recreated by the supremely talented Industrial Light and Magic, whilst modern natural history scenes add vital context to the story. This show has been worked on for six years, during which time countless papers were read and around 150 different palaeontologists contributed their time and knowledge. The whole production had culture of letting the scientific rese arch dictate scenes, resulting in one of the most accurate on-screen representations of prehistoric life there has ever been. And how do we know all this? Well, our very own team members Tom Fletcher and Dave Marshall have been embedded within the LOOP team since day one! We are therefore in a totally unique position to reveal to you the work that went into this series, from both the production and research side of things. In this unofficial series, we've been granted exclusive access to many of the people responsible for creating LOOP, we explore what it takes to create a palaeontological documentary and we delve deeper into the science with some of the show's academic advisors. Each day, we will be releasing batches of interviews, each relating to a specific episode of LOOP. Image courtesy and copyright of Netflix.

As you walk through the white gypsum sands of White Sands National Park in southern New Mexico, your footprints will likely be quickly erased by shifting winds. So it's somewhat of a phenomenon of nature that the oldest footprints ever discovered in North America are not only found here — in perfect form, having withstood time and weather — but show that ancient humans lived here much earlier than previously believed.  A research team from the U-S Geological Survey earlier this month strengthened their findings released in 2021 that dated these footprints to as much as 23,000 years old. That finding erased previous theories that humans first arrived in North America some 11,000 years ago, after the end of the last Ice Age.  This week the Traveler's Lynn Riddick talks with key researchers from the U.S. Geological Survey team about their initial analysis of the footprints as well as their follow-up study that confirmed the age dating…and what it all means to our long-sought understanding of human colonization on this continent.

Cows have gotten a bad rap in recent years. Their flatulence and burps have been cited as contributing to climate change. But what if that's not the case? What if, in fact, cows are actually helping save the planet? Judith D. Schwartz is a journalist and the author of “Cows Save the Planet.” Today, she sheds light on how much we need for cows for healthy soil. She describes the diversity of such soil (that the cows enrich) in detail, highlighting the soil's micro and macro diversity (including "mega fauna" such as earthworms)! She reminds us that the very minerals we seek for our children (often in the form of multivitamins) are found in the soil. Judith points out the critical role cattle play in cultivating such richness and how it benefits the world both today and tomorrow.

During our stay at Cenigan, we attended a Manta presentation conducted by members of The Marine Megafauna Foundation. A non-profit with a focus on protecting the most endangered ocean giants and the habitats they call home. In this episode, I speak with Janis, a project leader, and Raina a student completing an internship. We speak about what led them into the underwater world, the work of the foundation, some facts about mantas, why citizen science is so important, and what you can do to help! Enjoy!Please consider making a donation to this wonderful organization. Every little bit helps You can show your support at MarineMegaFauna.org. You can also find a link in the episode description.

Bison have been in the news recently. The Interior Department this past week released $5 million to help fund both bison restoration and grasslands rehabilitation.  And next month Ken Burns and Dayton Duncan will release their latest documentary, The American Buffalo. The American Buffalo documentary traces the history of how bison nearly went extinct, and how they came back. It will be delivered in a two-part, four-hour series on public television. Earlier this summer I talked to Dayton Duncan about the project, and we're rerunning that conversation to remind you of the documentary that is set to debut on October 16.

This week, Mask dies a horrible death at the hands of gravity (with an assist by Belri) only to be saved by a manic pixie dream girl not before seen in the show! Also, the Megafauna heads south, we learn about what parties are like in the capital territory, and Tyler starts growing suspicious about a certain leader of the Capital Army's origins.

This week, Klim Nick makes his move on Raraiya, Belri's Mom forgets to go to the store, and Mask gives a speech about what Kuntala are... to some other Kuntala. Will the combination of a motivational sports huddle, Belri not being in the G-Self, and the Elf Bull be enough to take out the Megafauna? And why does it look so.... rubbery?

Ancient wildfires may have doomed Southern California's big mammals, and do insular societies have more complex languages?   First up on this week's show, what killed off North America's megafauna, such as dire wolves and saber-toothed cats? Online News Editor Mike Price joins host Sarah Crespi to talk about the likely culprits: climate or humans, or one that combines both—fire. They discuss how the La Brea Tar Pits are helping researchers figure this out. Read the related Science paper.   Next up, do languages get less complex when spoken in multilingual societies? Olena Shcherbakova, a doctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, joins Sarah with a broad look at how the complexity of languages changes under different social and linguistic environments.   In a sponsored segment from the Science/AAAS Custom Publishing Office, Jackie Oberst, associate editor for custom publishing, discusses with Trine Bartholdy, chief innovation officer at the BioInnovation Institute, an international life science incubator in Copenhagen, Denmark, about the continued disparity in women's health research and funding and ways in which these challenges are being overcome. This segment is sponsored by the BioInnovation Institute.   This week's episode was produced with help from Podigy.   Authors: Sarah Crespi, Mike Price   Episode page: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adk3475    About the Science Podcast: https://www.science.org/content/page/about-science-podcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Once upon a time, there might have been 60 million bison on the North American continent. The herds were so large that they covered prairies like immense horizon-stretching black cloaks, and their annual migrations carved such wide paths into the landscape that some were turned into roads by human travelers.  As vast as bison herds were, the species came extremely close to extinction. By the end of the 19th century, there might have been two dozen bison left in the wilds, and they were deep in the heart of Yellowstone National Park. Today however, there might be 500,000 bison in North America, though most are in commercial herds meant for meat production. Designated the national mammal back in 2016, bison are truly charismatic megafauna. So charismatic, in fact, that Dayton Duncan and Ken Burns, who profiled America's National Parks back in 2016, are soon to release a documentary on the history of the bison.

Dr. Yates is the senior curator of Earth Sciences at the Museum of Central Australia in Alice Springs, Northern Territory, Australia.

Algunos de los animales mas grandes del pasado y por que algunos creen que todavia existen.

We continue our in-depth reading and discussion on Charles Hapgood's Path of the Pole, finishing up the section on megafauna extinctions in North America at the end of the last ice age, and moving into evidence for massive geological upheaval in South America in the recent past. Hapgood talks about the Altiplano area of Peru and Bolivia, Lake Titicaca, and Tiahuanaco, all of which show signs of being involved in an enormous geological uplift that brought the lake from contact with the ocean to its present location far above sea level.   Get the Kindle version of the book here: https://www.amazon.com/Path-Pole-Cataclysmic-Shift-Geology-ebook/dp/B003F7PEFG/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=

Back to the book report! We had a great time in Egypt, and there are more Egypt episodes coming, but meanwhile we still have to complete Charles Hapgood's Path of the Pole. This week we complete the section on mountain building, continental drift, and crustal composition, and move into chapter ten, which is about the extinction of the Pleistocene megafauna.   Executive Producer: Annabel
