Send us a textWe explore the science behind HBO's "The Last of Us," investigating whether a fungal apocalypse could happen in real life and if a vaccine for fungal infections is possible. The Royal Tyrrell Museum's new "Breakthroughs" exhibit showcases five groundbreaking fossil discoveries that revolutionized our understanding of prehistoric life. Lastly we look at the cause of the orange color in orange cats!• Fungal infections like cordyceps jumping to humans is extremely unlikely, though climate change impacts fungal evolution• Scientists have no approved fungal vaccines available, with only four new antifungal drugs approved in the last decade• The Royal Tyrrell Museum in Alberta showcases world-class dinosaur specimens including Canada's best-preserved nodosaur• Five breakthrough fossils include a Mosasaurus with preserved cartilage, feathered Ornithomimus, and exceptionally preserved Borealopelta• Recent studies reveal orange cats share a single genetic mutation near the RH-GAP36 gene that originated 900 years ago• Female orange cats are rare because they need the mutation on both X chromosomes, while males only need one copySupport the showFor Science, Empathy, and Cuteness!Being Kind is a Superpower.https://twitter.com/bunsenbernerbmd

For more, we reached Rod Warkentin of the Phantompalooza group in Winnipeg.
What if we told you PEI was once home to prehistoric creatures older than dinosaurs? Join hosts Matthew McRae, Lesley Caseley, and special guest Laura MacNeil, owner of Prehistoric Island Tours, as they uncover the not-so-secret facts of Prince Edward Island's prehistoric past and answer burning questions like: Why is the Island becoming a fossil hotspot? Are we related to dimetrodons, and did they use their sails to flirt with each other? And what the heck are Laura's favourite fossils? This episode is brought to you by The Architects Association of PEI, Confederation Center of the Arts, Provincial Credit Union, and The Grey Group. Laura MacNeil is a geologist born and raised in Alexandra, P.E.I. and founder of Prehistoric Island Tours, our province's first venue that provides guided shoreline tours on our rich 290-million-year-old geological heritage. Her professional experience is in Earth science communication, having worked as an educator at World-renowned museums such as Joggins Fossil Cliffs UNESCO World Heritage Site in Joggins, N.S., and the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Drumheller, AB. Laura completed her M.Sc. in geology at Acadia University, Nova Scotia, and B.Sc. in geology at Queen's University, Ontario. In 2016 Laura discovered the first fossil evidence of Dimetrodon borealis trackways on P.E.I., a sail-backed apex predator that roamed our province's prehistoric landscapes 290 million years ago.
In this episode, we're taking you to Drumheller, Alberta—the Dinosaur Capital of the World!
fWotD Episode 2752: Atrociraptor Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Saturday, 16 November 2024 is Atrociraptor.Atrociraptor () is a genus of dromaeosaurid dinosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous in what is now Alberta, Canada. The first specimen, a partial skull, was discovered in 1995 by the fossil collector Wayne Marshall in the Horseshoe Canyon Formation, about 5 km (3 mi) from the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology, where it was brought for preparation. In 2004, the specimen became the holotype of the new genus and species Atrociraptor marshalli; the generic name is Latin for "savage robber", and the specific name references Marshall. The holotype consists of the premaxillae (frontmost bones of the upper jaw), a maxilla (main bone of the upper jaw), the dentaries (tooth-bearing bones of the lower jaw), associated teeth, and other skull fragments. Isolated teeth from the same formation have since been assigned to Atrociraptor. Estimated to have measured about 1.8–2 m (5.9–6.6 ft) in length and weighed 15 kg (33 lb), Atrociraptor was a relatively small dromaeosaurid. As a dromaeosaurid, it would have had a large sickle-claw on the second toe and had pennaceous feathers. Atrociraptor differs from its contemporary relatives in that its face is much deeper, and its teeth are more strongly inclined backwards than in most other dromaeosaurids and are almost all the same size. It also differed from most relatives in details of the skull, such as the part of the premaxilla below the nostril being taller than long, and in that its maxillary fenestra was larger. The fragmentary nature of the holotype has made the exact relations of Atrociraptor uncertain; it was initially thought to be a velociraptorine, but is now considered a saurornitholestine.Atrociraptor is thought to have been specialised for attacking larger prey than other dromaeosaurids, due to its deep snout. Various ideas for how dromaeosaurids used their sickle-claws have been proposed, and 21st century studies suggest they used them to grasp and restrain struggling prey while dismembering them with the mouth. The holotype specimen is known from the Horsethief Member of the Horseshoe Canyon Formation, which dates to the Maastrichtian age, and ranges from around 72.2 – 71.5 million years ago. Assigned teeth from other parts of the formation indicate it survived for over 2 million years and across a wide geographic area.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:30 UTC on Saturday, 16 November 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Atrociraptor on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Olivia.
On today's show: Alberta's voice at the Federal cabinet table makes his case for an oil and gas emissions cap; we connect with the politics reporter for Montana Public Radio. Our Southern neighbours are wrestling with some BIG ballot questions, and not just Trump-Harris; a discovery in the badlands has made its way to the Royal Tyrrell Museum... by helicopter! We're joined by one of their paleontologists to tell us what they found.
Imagine an alien world where a creature could create a sonic boom simply by whipping its tail. Look no further as such creatures once roamed the Earth. This is just one remarkable discovery made by the world renowned Paleontologist Philip J. Currie -- the man whose worked inspire Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park. In this episode, I speak with Philip J. Currie about feathered dinosaurs, long necked giants, his fascinating career and ongoing work. More info: Philip J. Currie Dinosaur Museum Philip J. Currie Bio: Philip J. Currie, born in Brampton, Ontario on March 13th, 1949, is a leading Canadian palaeontologist and museum curator who helped found the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology. He is now a professor at the University of Alberta. Inspired as a child by a toy dinosaur in a cereal box, Currie went on to study zoology at the University of Toronto, and then vertebrate palaeontology at McGill, under the tutelage of Robert Carroll, himself a major figure in the study of extinct animals. After receiving his doctorate, Currie became the curator of earth sciences at the Provincial Museum of Alberta in Edmonton in 1976. In 1981, this department became the nucleus of the new Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology (now the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology), in Drumheller, Alberta, where Currie is curator of dinosaurs. Currie is an important figure in dinosaur science, and has specialized in fossils from Alberta's Dinosaur Provincial Park as well as other Cretaceous sites (dating from the latter part of the dinosaur age) around the world. He is particularly interested in the evolution and classification of carnivorous dinosaurs (theropods) and their living descendants, birds. He has painstakingly investigated the skeletal anatomy of many of these, including the recently discovered feathered theropods (Protarchaeopteryx and Caudipteryx) of China. The find was considered clear evidence of the relationship between birds and dinosaurs. Other research has focused on dinosaur footprints, as well as dinosaur growth and variation, including description of embryonic duck-billed dinosaur bones discovered inside their fossilized crushed eggshells at Devil's Coulee in southern Alberta.

It was awesome to have had Eric Wolstenholme-Schmidt from @paleoalberta on the podcast. As a paleontologist, Eric takes part in another form of hunting that involves digging up the puzzle pieces of our past to paint a picture of how we came to be and what was before us. In our conversation, we talked about his work with the Royal Tyrrell Museum, his recent finds, and how incredible Alberta is with over 70 million years of history in its formations. We touched the many correlations between reading the land as a hunter & as a fossil hunter. Eric also shares his great aspirations for Paleo Alberta. Hearing all of Erics knowledge will inspire you to look at our land through another lense when out in nature. I can't wait to see what he unearths next and to have him back to share future findings.
On today's show: get your shovels and hockey sticks ready. Construction starts on Calgary's new event centre next year. We hear the details with councillor Sonya Sharp; a group of women, including two from Calgary, are in Rome pushing for equality in the Catholic church. We speak with one of them; we visit the Royal Tyrrell Museum to find out about an impressive new dino bone.

Outro: Shelter Dog. The Text: The Seventh Iteration, “Increasingly, the mathematics will demand the courage to face its implications.” This week's text is Destroying The World, spanning from pages 367– 369. Synopsis: Hammond believes they've saved the world by stopping the raptors from reaching the mainland, but Malcolm says that “life” would survive – that life finds a way to overcome all odds. “Life” is the greatest power; Hammond is deluded if he thinks otherwise. Discussions surround: Life Finds a Way, Semantics, Power is Magic, Crichton Tropes Corrections: I said Ernst Stromer was a paleontologist from the 1800s – which isn't quite correct. Yes, he was born in 1886, but his work on Spinosaurus and his career as a paleontologist was spent almost entirely in the 1900s, including the famous trip the Bahariya Formation in 1910. So, he was a 20th century paleontologist whose magnum opus was certainly in the 1900s. I was incorrect in describing him as a paleontologist from the 1800s. Also, I wondered if the expression “Crocodile Tears” may have come from crocodiles excreeting excess salt via tear ducts, and, upon looking into it, saltwater crocodiles are known to have tears which help rid them of the excess salt that they take in with their food.

DinoCast - de dinosauriër podcast met Maarten van Rossem en Gijs Rademaker
'Als je zo ontzettend groot bent dat je kop op 12 meter hoogte zit, hoe sterk moet je hart dan wel niet zijn?' verzucht Maarten terwijl hij langs de nekwervels omhoog tuurt. Gijs wil vooral weten hoe deze gigant zich verdedigde. 'Waar mik je op als vleeseter?' vraagt hij zich af. 'Hoe haal je een sauropode neer?'De hoogte inEr is nog zóveel meer te vertellen over de wonderlijke langnekken dat we er nog een aflevering aan besteden. Maar waar het bij Diplodocus met zijn horizontale nek nog mogelijk was op de grond te blijven, moeten we bij Brachiosaurus echt de hoogte in. Samen met Jonathan Wallaard, paleontoloog van het Oertijdmuseum, klimt Gijs omhoog om het reusachtige dier in de ogen te kijken.VleesetersIn de vorige aflevering hebben we gehoord hoe sauropoden zó groot konden worden. Nu willen we weten waarom dit zo'n slimme strategie was. En hoe verdedigden ze zich tegen de grote roofdieren uit het Jura-tijdperk, zoals Allosaurus en Torvosaurus? Samen met sauropodenkenner Koen Stein van het KBIN te Brussel bedenken we methodes om zo'n langnek te vellen. En… wat is de smerige ‘flesh grazing' theorie?Hart zo groot als een miniOok het hart van Brachiosaurus wordt besproken: dat moet reusachtig zijn geweest, ‘zo groot als een mini'. En als je het bloed wel tien meter recht omhoog moet pompen, hoe zat het dan met de bloeddruk van dit dier? We komen erachter dat een simpele handeling als ‘water drinken' niet simpel moet zijn geweest.Lange tandenWat meteen opvalt aan Brachiosaurus zijn z'n lange tanden, die bijna als pennen in zijn bek steken. Wat betekende dat voor zijn voedsel? Daarvoor gaan we te raden bij Femke Holwerda, Neerlands trots bij het beroemde Royal Tyrrell Museum in Canada. Zij is een expert op het gebied van sauropodentanden. Ze vertelt Gijs en Maarten hoe haar onderzoek niet alleen van alles vertelt over het dieet van deze dieren, maar ook over hun gedrag. Jurassic Park: aaien?We eindigen deze aflevering met Jurassic Park. In de eerste film speelt Brachiosaurus een prachtige rol: “It's a veggie-saurus Lex, a veggie-saurus”. Alan Grant klimt met de beide kinderen een boom in, en ze aaien een Brachiosaurus over de neus. Hoe verstandig is dat eigenlijk?

For the palaeoecology of extinct animals, François uses two different approaches. The shapes of animals' bones help him determine the behaviours of extinct animals (e.g., how they hunted, walked, laid their eggs). He also studies the features and chemical composition of ancient soils (called paleosols) to reconstruct the environments and climatic conditions the animals lived in.Jody Allair is an avid birder and naturalist who enjoys sharing his enthusiasm for the natural world. He is the Director of Community Engagement at Birds Canada and has written numerous articles on birds, birding and connecting with nature. You can find him on Twitter and Instagram at @JodyAllair.

Ankylosaurus is one of the worlds best known dinosaurs, with its thick armored plating and the iconic tail club. In spite of its familiarity, it is known from far fewer remains than its closest relatives. And wait until you find out what's inside Borealopelta! And what's the deal with this thing, was it more like a turtle or more like an armadillo? New discoveries of the armored dinosaurs continue to shape our understanding of these incredible walking tanks. Let's discover the world's most-died-right-after-lunchingest dinosaur, with the help of our next guest— curator of Dinosaur Systematics and Evolution for the Royal Tyrrell Museum, Dr. Caleb Brown. Here are the Journals: Arbour, V., Mallon, J. 2017. Unusual cranial and postcranial anatomy in the archetypal ankylosaur Ankylosaurus magniventris. Facets. Brown, C. M., Henderson, D.

Prehistoric SpectacleGuest: Lukas Rieppel, Associate Professor of History at Brown University and author of "Assembling the Dinosaur: Fossil Hunters, Tycoons, and the Making of a Spectacle"Our idea of dinosaurs has been shaped since their discovery by both scientists and showmen. Financial giants of the Gilded Age, such as Andrew Carnegie, took a special philanthropic interest in the dinosaur craze, which benefited both paleontologists and those trying to capitalize on the creatures. Dinosaur TreasureGuest: Caleb Brown, Curator of Dinosaur Systematics and Evolution at the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology, Alberta, CanadaIn March 2011, a mechanical shovel operator accidentally stumbled on a mummified dinosaur. It was so well preserved that the contents of its guts were still inside. What we learn from this amazing specimen. Scientists Learn Big Lessons from Tiny Dinosaur DandruffGuest: Mike Benton, Professor of Vertebrate Palaeontology at the University of BristolWhen you have a chance to visit a dinosaur museum, it's easy to feel small next to a 20- to 30-foot long skeleton of, say, a stegosaurus. But it's fun to imagine paleontologists assembling all those massive bones and plates to solve the puzzle of what dinosaurs looked like. Except, the puzzle isn't really complete once the skeleton is put back together again. Because, there's the skin to consider . . . and feathers. And, scientists now even look at dinosaur dandruff to figure out how these creatures moved. Because something as small as a flake of skin can actually be just as important to understanding these creatures as a skull, or a leg bone.
Joseph Burr Tyrrell passed away on this date in 1957. We spoke with the Royal Tyrrell Museum's Don Brinkman about Tyrrell and the beginning of the Canadian Dinosaur Rush.
A Dangerous and Mysterious Prehistoric PredatorGuest: Nizar Ibrahim, paleontologist and National Geographic ExplorerThe 50-foot-long spinosaurus was one of the most terrifying prehistoric creatures, but it didn't roam the earth like the T. rex—it was actually lurking underwater. Dinosaur MummyGuest: Caleb Brown, Curator, Dinosaur Systematics and Evolution, Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology, Alberta, CanadaIn March 2011, a mechanical shovel operator accidentally stumbled on a mummified dinosaur. It was so well preserved that the contents of its guts were still inside. We're getting better at finding amazing fossils, and that's partially thanks to hikers who find them. The Montana Dueling-Dinosaurs Court CaseGuest: Peter Larson, President, Black Hills Institute of Geological ResearchTwo dinosaurs were fossilized, locked in combat, in the Montana wilds. The find instigated another battle that went all the way to the Montana Supreme Court, and threatened dinosaur discoveries everywhere. Tune in to hear who won.

In this episode, in conjunction with the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology (SVP), we investigate issues of diversity in palaeontology, through interviews with Jann Nassif (PhD student at Ohio University, USA) on being transgender in palaeontology; Professor Taissa Rodrigues (Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, Brazil) and Dr Femke Holwerda (Dr Betsy Nicholls Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology, Canada) about women in palaeontology; and Gabriel-Philip Santos (Collections Manager and Outreach Coordinator at the Raymond M. Alf Museum of Paleontology at The Webb Schools) about racial diversity. We also spoke with Professor Jessica Theodor (University of Calgary), the Vice President of SVP about what they are doing to increase diversity and address these issues. This episode was recorded in 2019 at the SVP meeting in Brisbane, Australia, but for several reasons has taken us a little while to complete. Given the current discussions and anti-racism activism going on around the world, we thought this was a good time to reflect on some of the issues within our science and the ways in which they are being addressed.

Alanna speaks with teacher-librarian Jonelle St. Aubyn and Leigh Cassel, founder and Chief Curation Officer of The Digital Human Library (https://www.digitalhumanlibrary.com/). Human libraries really help unlikely relationships to occur and they bring an authenticity to the experience that might otherwise be missing from another form of reading. Whether expertise in a particular topic, or a defining life experience, Jonelle and Leigh agree that the connections made with their human libraries are great catalysts for student inquiry from K - 12. Shoutouts to the Geneva model of Human Library https://humanlibrary.org/, Royal Tyrrell Museum, 49th Shelf and Burt Bacharach.If you liked this episode, check out our earlier podcasts with Jonelle:Episode 4a: Jonelle's paper about her experience creating a human library https://voiced.ca/podcast_episode_post/ep-04a-title-paper-the-human-library-at-the-louise-arbour-secondary-school-library-learning-commons/ Episode 4b: Our interview with Jonelle about the experiencehttps://voiced.ca/podcast_episode_post/ep-04b-interview-read-into-making-a-human-library-with-jonelle-st-aubyn/
Our drinking water comes from the Oldman River, but where does this river start? The tributaries that feed a river are collectively called headwaters, the source or ‘birthplace' of our river. Located along the Eastern Slopes of the Rocky Mountains, the headwaters of the Oldman River flow from an increasingly busy landscape - one that includes mining, logging, grazing, and recreation. This unique area offers important habitat for threatened species, as well as ecological services beyond providing most of the water used by over 210,000 people living, working, and playing in our watershed. In response to public concern, the Oldman Watershed Council (OWC) has made the headwaters a priority through education and restoration. Their unique approach is based on social science methodologies and involves talking (and listening!) to people through face-to-face conversations; boots-on-the-ground events to restore streambanks together with partners and volunteers; testing strategies like signs and pledges to change behaviour; and ultimately, engaging hearts, heads, and hands. Since 2015, OWC has conducted 283 surveys, talked to more than 5,600 people, and helped plant over 4,300 willows and trees. The speaker will describe these local, grassroots efforts aimed at improving conditions in our headwaters, and will discuss some actions we can all take to help care for this special place. Speaker: Sofie Forsström Sofie Forsström is the Education Program Manager for the Oldman Watershed Council. Since 2015, Sofie has been coordinating education and restoration activities in the headwaters and beyond in order to promote watershed literacy and cultivate a strong sense of place. Sofie earned a Master of Science in Applied Ecology from the University of East Anglia in Norwich, UK and a Bachelor of Arts in Environmental Studies from U of A, Augustana Campus. Prior to joining OWC, she worked as a science educator at the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Drumheller. In her free time, Sofie enjoys hiking with her dog and volunteering with a local Scout Troop.

Monocle 24’s highlights show playing all the best bits from the past seven days. This week: Legendary guitarist Brian May discusses his new book; we take a tour of Canada’s only museum dedicated to the science of palaeontology, The Royal Tyrrell Museum; and we sit down with the team behind Flash Pack, the adventure travel company.
It’s summer, and the latest installment of the Jurassic Park franchise is in theaters. So, of course, we’re going to talk about dinosaurs. Tyrannosaurus rex was the scariest. And sauropods were the biggest. But horned dinosaurs were the showiest. Their heads bristled with wicked spikes, menacing hooks and enormous, fan-like frills. Though all this gaudy ornamentation looked fearsome, you might be surprised to learn that its main purpose probably wasn’t for defense. There’s lots more interesting stuff to find out about horned dinosaurs, or ceratopsians, as they’re formally known. And there’s no one better to help us understand their crazy appearance and lifestyles than paleontologist Dr. Michael Ryan, the former Cleveland Museum of Natural History’s Curator of Vertebrate Paleontology. Dr. Ryan is one of the world’s leading dinosaur researchers, specializing in horned dinosaurs. He’s a native of Canada, as you’ll hear by his accent, and he spends each summer scouring the badlands of Southern Alberta for dinosaur fossils. He’s a prolific identifier of new species, and has come up with some memorable names for his discoveries, including Medusaceratops, which he’ll talk about. It had a face only another horned dinosaur could love. Dr. Ryan is co-creator of the Southern Alberta Dinosaur Project. That’s a collaboration among the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, Toronto’s Royal Ontario Museum and the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Paleontology to investigate the evolution of Late Cretaceous dinosaurs and other fauna in what’s now southwestern Canada. In addition to his work there, Dr. Ryan has conducted field research in Mongolia and Greenland. He’ll tell us about exploring dinosaur mass graveyards, about how horned dinosaurs’ bodies changed as they matured, about the impact of fossil poaching, and about a unique fossil-hunting opportunity here in Cleveland later this summer that doesn’t involve dinosaurs, but does involve a big, fearsome prehistoric creature. Intrigued? Let’s get on with the show.

The story of how Cambridge Analytica had scraped Facebook data in its attempt to influence voting behaviour has been reported widely this week. Andrew Steele, a medical researcher at the Crick Institute in London, explains how data mining or scraping actually works and how it is used by many scientists to find ways of improving human health. The Government Office for Science published a massive report this week, entitled the 'Future of the Sea' which sets out the UK's stall with regard to our future relationship with the seas, and to put science front and centre in that plan. Professor Ed Hill, Executive Director at the National Oceanographic Centre in Southampton, is one of the authors and tells Adam Rutherford about future exploitation of the sea. Debris in space is a huge issue - it's estimated that there are more than 170 million fragments of satellites, rockets and other stuff that we've sent up, all orbiting the Earth at ballistic speeds. All of these have the potential to lethally strike a working satellite or worse, a crewed space station. Graihagh Jackson met Professor Guglielmo Aglietti at Surrey University who's researching the best technology to safely remove space junk. Dinosaurs were incredibly successful and lived on earth for over 150 million years. Francois Therrien from the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology in Alberta, Canada, and colleagues explored how living crocodiles and birds, the descendants of dinosaurs, rear their eggs. Dr Therrien told Adam how their findings have suggested that dinosaurs used a variety of ways to hatch their eggs in the many environments on earth.
