67 million years ago the most famous meat-eating dinosaur prowled the earth - the Tyrannosaurus Rex. At it's full size, this prehistoric apex predator was taller than a double decker bus and weighed more than seven tonnes, whilst it's teeth were the size of bananas. But how much do we actually know about this so called 'King of the Dinosaurs'?In this episode of The Ancients, Tristan Hughes is joined by Dr Steve Brusatte to explore the ins and outs of this most iconic of dinosaurs - from their tiny little arms to their fossilised poo.Presented by Tristan Hughes.

On July 17, Apex the stegosaurus was sold at Sothebys in New York City for a record $44.6 million. The buyer was billionaire Ken Griffin, CEO of the hedge fund Citadel, who says he plans to loan the fossil to American institutions for display.But despite Griffin's statement, some paleontologists aren't too happy about the trend of fossils going up for auction.The sale of dinosaur fossils has become more and more profitable in recent years. Eight out of the ten most expensive fossils have been sold in the last four years. This trend of rising sale prices leaves museums and research institutions unable to pay for fossils that could benefit paleontological research.Paleontologists fear that as more and more fossils become privately owned, the availability of fossils for research and even access to dig sites might decrease or be restricted.SciFri guest host and producer Kathleen Davis is joined by Dr. Steve Brusatte, professor of paleontology at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland to talk about the potential scientific impacts of privatizing and selling fossils.Transcript for this segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

Hello and welcome to Episode 52 of Jurassic Minutes, The February issue.  Where we discuss recent movie, toy and franchise news for the Jurassic series.    Introductions Brad David   On this episode we will be discussing  Yes we are going to talk about the new film. Actually that's pretty much all we are going to talk about…   So stay tuned as we discuss all of that and more... But first,   Recent Toy or Prop Purchases? Brad - nil  Dave - TLW Bull T-Rex HC repaint   Now for the news 00:12:07 -new Jurassic film on the way, and a lot closer to release then most thought. Now all this must be taken with a grain of salt. We've already seen new stories confirmed and then things have fallen through so nothing is set in concrete. It's why we don't rush to get news content out there like everyone else. The other podcasts have already had lengthy discussions about the new movie news and now most of it is a mute point because of what we will discuss shortly.    Here's what we know; -The Hollywood reporter wrote an article about David koepp returning to pen new Jurassic film. Lastest works include Indy 5. And although his final script wasn't used by mangold, the original story idea was Micheal koepps.    Universal said the script was written and in a place they thought was strong enough to start production on the seventh film. https://www.facebook.com/100064603813478/posts/pfbid02Wjqesv1ixRrtwo5qJn2Q4FWEhBgmUktB18cTVN4cemsX4GmmWV9FE2iW64fBcn2el/   -it was then revealed Steve Brusatte was returning as paleontology consultant for upcoming Jurassic film!  https://www.facebook.com/100064603813478/posts/pfbid02yZs7eHqWXZLKWfk1qonZxLFPzjbiVka5qxbSoMimuifFG3HSPnZdL9SmC2cG2m5fl/   -and then came the flood of small click bait articles about Bryce returning, maybe directing, Brian Cranston wanting to be in it with Bryce. Apparently Bryce was asked to return, spoiler alert for later she said no. And then someone reported that none of the original or world cast would be returning. No would Colin travarrow. Which is for the best. He gave us a trilogy story. Time for someone else to give us a new take and story.    -next, According to Deadline Hollywood, David Leitch was in talks to direct the next Jurassic film and its release date was confirmed as July 2nd, 2025!   As for the release date. A lot are saying that's way too early, including me and the feeling of it being rushed is very present.     First up to defend it, don't forget dominion was pushed back a year. In that year they wouldn't have changed anything with the film, we've discussed this before. But it would have given them an early start on what was coming next. And yes during the marketing for dominion it was said to be the final chapter in the jurassic story etc etc, but frank Marshall had said it's the start of a new jurassic era. So it can be pretty much assumed the new film will feature the post dominion world.     As for the director, His known in the franchise as the second unit director for jw, he also did a fast & furious and John wick film, and some others that aren't really important now because…… https://www.facebook.com/100064603813478/posts/pfbid02WzamZGuJHZLK4i8BtujTcSA8cX7vSCbuNnV8NgtbjhaXD393xqUkyP98atRZHuvJl/   -Deadline reported talks have fallen through with David Leitch, who will no longer direct the next jurassic film.  It would appear fans jumped the gun with shit talking the director before he was even locked in to direct. All the previous articles and reports state “in talks” or “in negotiations” everyone assumed it was a sure thing. https://www.facebook.com/100064603813478/posts/pfbid0371aBJfwiDDs5EpF3z3miVZ3R71WNBjXGxUkxr1vyo5SvQR8rw2HGV93hpnR7TeTql/   We talked earlier about David koepp writing the Indy script and then mangold coming in and changing a whole part of it. Even David's the lost world script changed a lot during production, we've talked a lot about that. Having a strong scrip now doesn't mean you'll have a ready film in just 15 months. No director at this point concerns me, either a puppet director will come in and make the film universal want, or they will hire someone that will then make changes to the script and next thing the films being moved to July 2026.     We also don't know what else has been going on behind the scenes. At this point animatronics and pre production should be started and leaks will probably start coming out shortly, plus principal photography will most likely start mid year with a large portion being filmed in England once again.   So time will tell. With all the Jurassic films averaging a billion dollars we were wrong to think universal would just sit on the franchise for a few years. This also probably rule out any live action tv show for the time being, unless assets made for this film will continue on in a tv format. It hasn't been announced if this is the start of a new trilogy, but personally with the world being a lot smaller then a star war or trek universe maybe go back to individual movies with maybe one or two through points but new casts, new locations and maybe some old ones, and just give us good story telling and dinosaurs.    00:47:17 -okay so also in the news docket, while we are talking David Leitch, he was the second unit director on jurassic world, and filmed the unimog chase scene from that film. A scene we talked a lot about because of some interesting structures in the back ground that looked very abandoned jurassic park. His production assistant recently dumped a heap of info on twitter, including the location of that scene.  https://maps.app.goo.gl/PMjUVa6oXP47LJfu6   01:06:36 -original JP Rex assets used in resent episode of La Brae. Beloved to be season 3 episode 6.    -that's pretty much it for the news, there was an announcement of a Hammond collection Claire but no photos yet so we will check that out next month. We are also heading into the 10th anniversary of jurassic world so expect a lot of jw themed figures on the way. Mattel hasn't done a lot with the first film so this year we might be getting thier chance on that toy line.   -also just yesterday beyond the gates posted up some images from 1996 of some of the ingen unimogs presumable parked on the back lot either pre or post filming of the lost world. These photos keep surfacing, what else is out there yet to be found.   Outro Thank you for listening.  -Anything else we'd like to bring up?

Ray and Dave have the most exciting discussion and eye-opening interview with the New York Times bestselling author and prolific paleontologist, Steve Brusatte.

A new fossil study by researchers from China and Canada suggests that ancient mammals may have attacked and eaten larger dinosaurs.中国和加拿大研究人员的一项新化石研究表明，古代哺乳动物可能攻击并吃掉了更大的恐龙。The scientists looked at a fossil found by a Chinese farmer in 2012. A fossil is the mineralized remains of an animal or plant left in an ancient rock.科学家们观察了一位中国农民在 2012 年发现的化石。化石是古代岩石中动物或植物的矿化遗骸。The scientists said the fossil is from 125 million years ago. They published their findings recently in the journal Scientific Reports.科学家称这块化石距今1.25亿年前。 他们最近在《科学报告》杂志上发表了他们的发现。The scientists believe a mammal, similar to a badger, attacked a small, beaked dinosaur. During the attack, the animals were caught up in a lava flow from a nearby volcano. The moment was locked in time until it was found over 12 years ago.科学家们认为，一种类似于獾的哺乳动物袭击了一只小型的有喙的恐龙。 在袭击过程中，这些动物被困在附近火山的熔岩流中。 这一时刻被时间锁定，直到 12 年前才被发现。Researchers call the place where the fossil was found “China's Pompeii.” Pompeii was a city in Italy that was caught in a volcanic eruption about 2000 years ago. Ash covered the city and preserved moments from daily life. Researchers discovered the ruins of the city about 500 years ago.研究人员将化石发现地称为“中国的庞贝古城”。 庞贝古城是意大利的一座城市，大约2000年前曾遭受火山喷发。 火山灰覆盖了整个城市，保留了日常生活的瞬间。 研究人员发现了这座大约 500 年前的城市遗址。In the past, dinosaur researchers believed small, scavenging mammals might have eaten dead dinosaurs. However, they were not sure that mammals attacked living dinosaurs.过去，恐龙研究人员认为小型食腐哺乳动物可能吃过死去的恐龙。 然而，他们不确定哺乳动物是否攻击过现存的恐龙。Jordan Mallon is a paleobiologist at the Canadian Museum of Nature in Ottawa, Ontario. He was one of the study's writers.乔丹·马伦 (Jordan Mallon) 是安大略省渥太华加拿大自然博物馆的古生物学家。 他是该研究的作者之一。“I've never seen a fossil like this before,” he said.“我以前从未见过这样的化石，”他说。Steve Brusatte is a paleontologist at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland. He did not work on the study. He described the fossil as a “freeze frame” or something like a photograph.史蒂夫布鲁萨特是苏格兰爱丁堡大学的古生物学家。 他没有参与这项研究。 他将这块化石描述为“定格”或类似照片的东西。“It turns the old story on its head,” he said. Brusatte said the old idea was that dinosaurs ruled the world with small mammals “in the shadows.”“这颠覆了这个古老的故事，”他说。 布鲁萨特说，过去的想法是恐龙统治着世界，而小型哺乳动物则“在阴影中”。Mallon said he would be happy for other scientists to examine the fossil if they are concerned that it might not be real.马伦说，如果其他科学家担心这块化石可能不是真的，他会很高兴检查这块化石。He described the mammal as about the size of a house cat. He said the dinosaur was about the size of an average dog.他描述这种哺乳动物大约有家猫那么大。 他说这只恐龙的大小与普通狗差不多。He said the species of dinosaur is Psittacosaurus and the mammal is called Repenomamus. The dinosaur ate plants, but other dinosaurs ate meat and hunted mammals.他说，恐龙的种类是鹦鹉嘴龙，哺乳动物的名字是Repenomamus。 恐龙吃植物，但其他恐龙吃肉并捕猎哺乳动物。Mallon said it would have been more common for a dinosaur to hunt a mammal, but the fossil he studied shows something new.马伦说，恐龙捕食哺乳动物的情况更为常见，但他研究的化石显示了一些新的东西。“We now know that the mammals were able to fight back, at least at times,” he said.“我们现在知道哺乳动物能够反击，至少有时是这样，”他说。

Canadian Wildfire Smoke Drifts Across The United States This week, smoke from Canadian wildfires drifted south, enveloping the Northeastern United States, casting an ominous orange glow. The smoke continued spreading outwards to the Southeast and to the Midwest. While climate change is extending and worsening the Canadian wildfire season, it's still rare for this many fires, so early in the season. Ira talks with Katherine Wu, staff writer at The Atlantic, about the latest on the Canadian wildfires and other top news stories of the week, including; a new type of cat contraception, drilling into the Earth's mantle, and a ‘virgin' crocodile birth.   30 Years Later, 'Jurassic Park' Still Inspires On June 11th, 1993, what would become one of the biggest movies of all time was released in theaters: Jurassic Park. Based on the novel by Michael Crichton, the film is about people's belief that they can control nature. Wealthy businessman John Hammond creates a dinosaur nature park. Things go awry quickly. Electric fences break down, dinosaurs get loose, and people are eaten. At the time of its release, the film became the highest-grossing movie of all time. In the decades since it came out, the film has spawned a multi-movie franchise, amusement park rides, video games, and every type of merchandise imaginable. The movie also had a tremendous impact on visual effects, both computer animated and practical, which are still seen today in the media. When the first Jurassic Park movie came out, many of the paleontologists of today were children—or not even born yet. Ira speaks with a trio of paleontologists about the film's impact on them as kids, and its continuous use as an educational tool to inspire young dino enthusiasts: Riley Black, Steve Brusatte and Yara Haridy.   A Biotech Offensive Against Disease-Carrying Mosquitoes Mosquitoes are the primary spreaders of some highly dangerous diseases for people: The insect spreads diseases like yellow fever, dengue fever, malaria, and zika, which kill millions of people globally each year. There's one species of mosquito that's invasive to the United States, and whose populations are spreading: Aedes aegypti, which is recognizable by black and white markings on its legs. Lee County, Florida is taking aim at this species with biotechnology. Their strategy is to release 30,000 sterilized male mosquitoes into the environment, who will go on to mate with females, who then will release eggs that do not hatch. Male mosquitoes don't bite, only females do. The goal of this method is to decrease the Aedes aegypti population with every generation. Biotechnology to combat this mosquito species is nothing new. Ira speaks with reporter Cary Barbor at WGCU in Fort Myers about this strategy in her city. He also speaks with Dr. Omar Akbari, professor of cell and developmental biology at UC San Diego, about his research on using CRISPR to alter Aedes aegypti into harmless insects.   To stay updated on all-things-science, sign up for Science Friday's newsletters.

More than 250 million years ago, our planet looked and felt a lot different from how it does now. The seven separate continents we have today hadn't yet taken shape. Instead, there was only one "supercontinent" called Pangaea. This was the beginning of the time of the dinosaurs. Journey from the Triassic to the Jurassic to the Cretaceous to find out how Earth slowly shifted over time, and how the variety of dinosaurs ruling the planet changed too. Discover how some of these creatures took to the land and others to water or air, and what their habitats were like. Explore how these prehistoric lands correspond to current locations and hear from paleontologists about the groundbreaking discoveries they are making in these fossil-rich places today. Experience the Mesozoic world of the dinosaurs as never before.

So in depth. So real. Very interactive and it's done by those who truly know dinosaurs.

Steve Brusatte tells the story of what we know about mammals, how we came to know it and how our knowledge of mammals developed over time.

Dr. Steve Brusatte, Professor of Palaeontology and Evolution, University of Edinburgh, author of The Rise and Reign of the Mammals

Steve Brusatte is an American paleontologist who teaches at the University of Edinburgh. Widely published in journals such as Scientific American and Science, Steve served as the paleontology advisor on the very successful Jurassic World film franchise. We spoke with him about his terrific book, The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs: A New History of a Lost World. "Dinosaurs diversified and some became colossal and so much bigger really than anything else that had ever lived at that point in time and those dinosaurs still are the biggest animals that have ever lived on land."

Apex Fossil Predator and Dino advisor to The Jurassic Park movies, Professor Steve Brusatte breaks down the greatest story never told.   

Researchers have discovered a species of bacteria which dwarfs all others by thousands of times. Normally you need a microscope to see single-celled bacteria, but Thiomargarita magnifica is the length and width of an eyelash. It's been found growing in mangrove swamps in the Caribbean. Roland Pease talks to Jean Marie Volland about what makes this Godzilla of the microbial world extra-special. Also in the programme, a new study published in the journal Nature has discovered that women scientists are less likely than their male peers to be credited for their contributions to research projects. Roland discusses the findings with the study leader Julia Lane of New York University and nanoscientist Shobhana Narasimhan in Bangalore. We also find out about the oldest evidence for wildfires on the planet which raged across the land 430 million years ago, with palaeobotanist Ian Glasspool. And Edinburgh University vertebrate palaeontologist Steve Brusatte talks about some of the evolutionary wonders in his new book The Rise and Reign of the Mammals. Death is inevitable, though many of us would rather not dwell on it. For those with a terminal illness, however, the end of life is clearly a more pressing reality. CrowdScience listener Sam has known for a while that her illness is terminal, and by now she's got used to the idea. But she finds many friends and family would rather avoid the subject at all costs; they don't want to acknowledge what's happening until it's all over. She's wondering if there's a way to lighten up the topic of her approaching death, and create the openness she craves. If we could learn to be more accepting of illness and dying, the end of life could be a more positive experience for all involved. So how can we face up to the impending death of a loved one, and best support that person in the process?

Steve Brusatte (The Rise and Reign of the Mammals) is a paleontologist and author. Steve joins the Armchair Expert to discuss the process of finding dinosaur bones, how mammals survived during the time of the dinosaurs, and how likely it is to bring back the woolly mammoth. Steve and Dax talk about what some of the largest mammals would have looked like, how Thomas Jefferson was obsessed with natural history, and how evolution has shaped what today's mammals are. Steve explains how the dinosaurs most likely died off, that dinosaurs most definitely had feathers, and that blue whales have belly buttons.

Researchers have discovered a species of bacteria which dwarfs all others by thousands of times. Normally you need a microscope to see single-celled bacteria, but Thiomargarita magnifica is the length and width of an eyelash. It's been found growing in mangrove swamps in the Caribbean. Roland Pease talks to Jean Marie Volland about what makes this Godzilla of the microbial world extra-special. Also in the programme, a new study published in the journal Nature has discovered that women scientists are less likely than their male peers to be credited for their contributions to research projects. Roland discusses the findings with the study leader Julia Lane of New York University and nanoscientist Shobhana Narasimhan in Bangalore. We also find out about the oldest evidence for wildfires on the planet which raged across the land 430 million years ago, with palaeobotanist Ian Glasspool. And Edinburgh University vertebrate palaeontologist Steve Brusatte talks about some of the evolutionary wonders in his new book The Rise and Reign of the Mammals.

The Rise and Reign of the Mammals: A New History, from the Shadow of the Dinosaurs to Us by Steve Brusatte New from the author of acclaimed bestseller The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs ("A masterpiece of science writing" —Washington Post) and “one of the stars of modern paleontology” (National Geographic), a sweeping and revelatory history of mammals, illuminating the lost story of the extraordinary family tree that led to us We humans are the inheritors of a dynasty that has reigned over the planet for nearly 66 million years, through fiery cataclysm and ice ages: the mammals. Our lineage includes saber-toothed tigers, woolly mammoths, armadillos the size of a car, cave bears three times the weight of a grizzly, clever scurriers that outlasted Tyrannosaurus rex, and even other types of humans, like Neanderthals. Indeed humankind and many of the beloved fellow mammals we share the planet with today—lions, whales, dogs—represent only the few survivors of a sprawling and astonishing family tree that has been pruned by time and mass extinctions. How did we get here? In his acclaimed bestseller The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs—hailed as “the ultimate dinosaur biography” by Scientific American—American paleontologist Steve Brusatte enchanted readers with his definitive his - tory of the dinosaurs. Now, picking up the narrative in the ashes of the extinction event that doomed T-rex and its kind, Brusatte explores the remarkable story of the family of animals that inherited the Earth—mammals— and brilliantly reveals that their story is every bit as fascinating and complex as that of the dinosaurs. Beginning with the earliest days of our lineage some 325 million years ago, Brusatte charts how mammals survived the asteroid that claimed the dinosaurs and made the world their own, becoming the astonishingly diverse range of animals that dominate today's Earth. Brusatte also brings alive the lost worlds mammals inhabited through time, from ice ages to volcanic catastrophes. Entwined in this story is the detective work he and other scientists have done to piece together our understanding using fossil clues and cutting-edge technology. A sterling example of scientific storytelling by one of our finest young researchers, The Rise and Reign of the Mammals illustrates how this incredible history laid the foundation for today's world, for us, and our future.

The Wild and Wonderful World of Mammals Mammals may be the most diverse group of vertebrates that have ever lived. (Don't tell the mollusk enthusiasts over at Cephalopod Week.) Many people share their homes with another mammal as a pet, like a dog or cat. The largest creatures on earth are mammals: Ocean-dwelling blue whales are the biggest animals that have ever lived, and African elephants are the biggest animals on land. And lest we forget, humans, too, are mammals. The history and diversity of mammalians is the subject of a new book by paleontologist Steve Brusatte, “The Rise and Reign of the Mammals.” Steve joins Ira to talk about why mammals have been so successful over the years, and why extinct mammals deserve as much love as the beloved dinosaurs.  A Squid-tastic Night Out  How do you fossilize a squishy squid? Do octopuses see in color, and do they have arms or tentacles? Which came first, the hard-shelled nautilus or the soft-bodied octopus, squid, or cuttlefish? And what does ‘cephalopod' mean, anyhow?   This week, Ira ventured to the Maritime Aquarium in Norwalk, Connecticut for a special Cephalopod Week celebration. He was joined by experts Barrett Christie, the director of animal husbandry for the Maritime Aquarium, and Christopher Whalen, a postdoctoral researcher and invertebrate paleontologist at the American Museum of Natural History in New York.  They also discussed the challenges of caring for cephalopods in an aquarium environment, some of the amazing abilities of these animals, and what it's like to discover a previously unknown cephalopod genus and species in fossilized material stored in museum archives. Together, they tackled audience cephalopod questions large, small, and multi-armed.   Transcripts for each segment will be available the week after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

How will we know when we've made a truly sentient artificial intelligence? Well, one Google engineer believes we're already there. The team discusses the story of Google's very clever AI called LaMDA, and ask another chatbot, GPT3, what it would think if LaMDA was destroyed.Did you know stars have ‘earthquakes' too? These starquakes have been spotted by the Gaia space observatory, which aims to build a 3D map of all the stars in our galaxy. It's been collecting a phenomenal amount of data, and the team explores its findings.Net Zero pledges are becoming more popular - which is great - but a lot of them aren't being acted on. According to a new consortium Net Zero Tracker, a worrying number of these pledges aren't credible. The team finds out how the group aims to hold companies to account.Our brains are hotter than we realised - 2.5 degrees celsius hotter in fact. The team asks why we're only just finding this out in 2022, and how the discovery may improve care for people undergoing brain surgery.Steve Brusatte is best known as a dinosaur palaeontologist, but he has turned his attention now to our own class, the mammals.

Everyone loves dinosaurs.  Why?  Nobody knows.  It could be the mystique of something that no longer exists.  It could be because they're big, and that's cool.  It could be because Winston tastes good like a cigarette should.  Whatever the reason, they've captivated humanity, and Steve is helping them do it by digging up their bones.  Hey, skeletons are cool too.  Skeletons and dinosaurs at the same time?  That's about as cool as it gets.

What makes a mammal a mammal? How did mammals survive the KT event when dinosaurs mostly went extinct? And why did mammals become so dominant? When we think of the Cretaceous, or the Jurassic, we immediately think of dinosaurs. But mammals were there too! Although they weren't the mammals you would recognize today. So what is it that makes a mammal a mammal? On this episode of Big Biology, we talk with Steve Brusatte, professor of Paleontology and Evolution at the University of Edinburgh. Steve is the author of a new book: The Rise and Reign of the Mammals, which charts the evolution of our own mammalian ancestors, from those living in the time of the dinosaurs, through mass extinctions, to the diversity of mammals that dominate Earth today. We also talk to Steve about some of the remarkable people behind the discoveries that comprise what we know today. In the last half of the show, we talk about Steve's previous book: The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs, which caught the attention of Colin Trevorrow, director of Jurassic World. Based on that book, Colin brought Steve on as the scientific advisor for the new film: Jurassic World Dominion. We chat with Steve about his role in the making of the film and what we can expect from the new dinos (spoiler: FEATHERS!) Cover art: Keating Shahmehri

Matt Crawford speaks with author Steve Brusatte about his book, The Rise and Reign of The Mammals, A New History, from the Shadow of the Dinosaurs to Us. Brusatte traces the evolution of Mammals and their amazing journey through history and takes us along for the ride. A sweeping and eye-opening lesson that includes illustrations and Brusatte's own field work to really bring us back in time and show us, how we became what we are today. The history of dinosaurs and mammals is often thought of as separate, but it is intimately linked and while mammals were somewhat in the shadow of dinosaurs, the largest animal to ever live is on earth now and is a mammal! Brusatte is true rock star and Paleontology Advisor for the film, Jurassic World Dominion. Eat your heart out Chris Pratt!!

In this episode, Xavier Bonilla has a dialogue with Steve Brusatte about the rise and fall of dinosaurs and the rise and reign of mammals. They discuss how his two books are connected and overlap, first dinosaurs, and how dinosaurs survived the great dying and diversified. They talk about the taxonomy of dinosaurs, the T. Rex, and dinosaurs connection with birds. They also discuss what makes a mammal a mammal, importance of the jaw, and how mammals coexisted with dinosaurs. They also mention how mammals survived the asteroid, their proliferation, humans, and the future of mammals.  Steve Brusatte is a Palaeontologist who has a Bachelors in Geophysical Sciences from the University of Chicago, a Masters in Palaeobiology from the University of Bristol, and a PhD in Earth and Environmental Studies from the Columbia University, New York. He has over 150 peer-reviewed studies published and has discovered over a dozen dinosaur and mammal species. He is the author of The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs and his latest book, The Rise and Reign of the Mammals. He has also been a lead consultant on BBC's Walking with Dinosaurs, Prehistoric Planet, and Jurassic World: Dominion. You can find his work here. Twitter: @stevebrusatte

Professor Steve Brusatte is an American paleontologist teaching at Edinburgh University. He specializes in the evolution of dinosaurs, and he has named 15 new species.

Steve Brusatte analyses the pace of evolutionary change and tries to answer big questions. Why did the dinosaurs die out and the mammals survive? How did dinosaurs evolve into birds? If you met a Velociraptor today you'd probably mistake it for a large flightless bird, says Steve. His intense interest in T. rex, Triceratops and all the other dinosaur species developed when he was a teenager and continues to this day. More recently, however, he's focussed on the long history of mammals. For hundreds of millions of years, our mammalian ancestors remained small. Most were mouse-sized. None were bigger than a badger. Steve studies how, when an asteroid collided with earth 66 million years ago, the mammals got lucky. All the big dinosaurs were wiped out and only the small ones with wings survived. (Birds are dinosaurs, by the way). Within half a million years, mammals of all shapes and sizes had taken over on planet earth. Sabre-toothed flesh eaters, cow-sized plant guzzlers and a host of other warm blooded placental animals evolved alongside the badger sized burrowers. Steve talks to Jim Al-Khalili about his life and work, including the recent discovery of an incredibly well-preserved Pterosaur on the Isle of Skye, a place he likes to call Scotland's Jurassic Park.

When it comes to dinosaurs, many people would think of the movie Jurassic Park. And though Spielburg consulted with experts and did an amazing job of reconstructing what dinosaurs looked like, it was, after all, just a movie. So what did real dinosaurs look like? Were they the jeep stomping monsters from the big screen or were they more complex than that? How were they born, what were their daily lives like, and where did they go? These are the questions that we answer in this bookey. If you want to know the truth about dinosaurs, then today's bookey is the right choice. The author of this book, Steve Brusatte, is an accomplished paleontologist . Over the years, he has traveled the globe, discovering and studying various dinosaur fossils. Brusatte combined both his own research and excavations with previous studies and discoveries in paleontology to create this detailed history of dinosaurs. This book is a new epic of the lost world, which reconstructs the tale of the dinosaurs from their emergence to their golden age and finally their decline. It is not only an exciting journey and scientific stories, but also an anthem of evolution written in fossils.

If you're a Jurassic Park fan, this next bit of news may well be the best thing you've heard in 2021. Scientists have discovered the fossils of a 66 to 72 million year old dinsosaur embryo still perfectly preserved inside its egg. Dubbed 'Baby Yingliang', the embryo was found in southern China - and scientists say it would have been preparing to hatch. Steve Brusatte is a paleontologist and professor at the University of Edinburgh, and is one of the researchers. He spoke to Susie Ferguson.

In this PalaeoParty! Short, Prof Steve Brusatte tells us all about his favorite fossil - a small dinosaur called Zhenyuanlong. Found in China, this diminutive predator is scientifically important because, like a bird, it was covered in feathers, but it couldn't fly - even though it had wings! Steve walks us through the history of Zhenyuanlong, the science behind it, and the team of researchers that that described this beautiful fossil. If you want to see a picture of Zhenyuanlong head to our website: https://palaeoparty.weebly.com/ PalaeoParty!

'Fascinating and entertaining. If you read one book on human origins, this should be it' Ian Morris, author of Why the West Rules - For Now 'The who, what, where, when and how of human evolution, from one of the world's experts on the dating of prehistoric fossils' Steve Brusatte, author of The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs 50,000 years ago, we were not the only species of human in the world. There were at least four others, including the Neanderthals, Homo floresiensis, Homo luzonesis and the Denisovans. At the forefront of the latter's ground-breaking discovery was Oxford Professor Tom Higham. In The World Before Us, he explains the scientific and technological advancements - in radiocarbon dating and ancient DNA, for example - that allowed each of these discoveries to be made, enabling us to be more accurate in our predictions about not just how long ago these other humans lived, but how they lived, interacted and live on in our genes today. This is the story of us, told for the first time with its full cast of characters. 'The application of new genetic science to pre-history is analogous to how the telescope transformed astronomy. Tom Higham brings us to the frontier of recent discoveries with a book that is both gripping and fun' Paul Collier, author of The Bottom Billion 'This exciting book shows that we now have a revolutionary new tool for reconstructing the human past: DNA from minute pieces of tooth and bone, and even from the dirt on the floor of caves' David Abulafia, author of The Boundless Sea 'The remarkable new science of palaeoanthropology, from lab bench to trench' Rebecca Wragg Sykes, author of Kindred 'Higham's thrilling account makes readers feel as if they were participating themselves in the extraordinary series of events that in the last few years has revealed our long-lost cousins' David Reich, author of Who We Are and How We Got Here 'A brilliant distillation of the ideas and discoveries revolutionising our understanding of human evolution' Chris Gosden, author of The History of Magic

Academic and paleontologist Steve Brusatte’s book The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs: A New History of a Lost World is a stunning narrative covering more than 200 million years. Showcasing a new and complete history of these magnificent creatures it draws from cutting-edge science dramatically bringing to life their lost world and enigmatic origins. Academic and writer Lisa Randall's book Dark Matter and the Dinosaurs: The Astounding Interconnectedness of the Universe takes us on a journey across the universe and through the Milky Way giving us an exceptional understanding of how dark matter may have led to the cataclysmic extinction of Dinosaurs on earth. Writer and biochemist Pranay Lal is the author of Indica: A Deep Natural History of the Indian Subcontinent. In conversation with Lal, they dive into the diverse world of dinosaurs and their ongoing legacy.

Rewind millions of years and a dinosaur-killing asteroid is racing toward Earth at breakneck speed. But what exactly happened in the immediate aftermath of this event? Which species survived and which ones were met with instantaneous extinction? In a much-needed break from today’s partisan political climate, David and Sarah are joined by Steve Brusatte, a professor of paleontology and evolution at the University of Edinburgh, for some in-the-field expertise on the dinosaur age. “When the dinosaurs died,” Steve Brusatte explains on today’s podcast, “they died literally because a six-mile wide rock fell out of the sky, traveling faster than a speeding bullet.” Fast forward to 2020, and paleontology is in high demand. “We’re in this golden age right now,” Brusatte tells David and Sarah. “There’s fifty-something new species of dinosaurs being found every single year.” But realistically speaking, most people have a limited knowledge base about dinosaurs. Was the Tyrannosaurus rex an intelligent dinosaur? Are pterodactyls birds? What are the personality traits that make a good paleontologist? Steve Brusatte has answers. Tune in for some fun facts about pinocchio dinosaurs, banana-sized T-rex teeth, and birds (which are dinosaurs, by the way). For all you Jurassic Park fans out there, you won’t want to miss this one (especially since Brusatte is now a science consultant for the series.)

Julia Schwab and Steve Brusatte describe how marine reptiles made the evolutionary move from land to sea.

This week I talk with film-makers Monica Long Ross and Clayton Brown about their bizarre and wonderful documentary, We Believe in Dinosaurs — and how a creationist amusement park in Kentucky provides a lens through which to examine the tense relationship between science, religion, and business in America. This is a conversation about what happens when premodern, modern, and postmodern worldviews duke it out on a landscape of rapid change for which none of them are sufficient. It’s about the surreal Young Earth dinosaur museums of Late Capitalism, but more, it is about our trust (or lack of trust) and where we put it when we lose the plot.Support this show on Patreon for over a dozen secret episodes, the Future Fossils book club and Discord server, weekly community calls, and much more.Grab the books we talk about on Future Fossils and Amazon will chip me a little of the proceeds, at no cost to you.Theme Music: “God Detector” by Evan “Skytree” Snyder (feat. Michael Garfield)Additional Intro Music: “Lambent” by Michael GarfieldTopics:How an Australian fundamentalist extremist ended up building a $200M “replica” of Noah’s Ark as a theme park in rural Kentucky.How Young Earth creationists can doubt geology but trust high-energy physics: their distinction between experimental versus observational science.The role of Big Money and economic development in the entire history of dinosaur science, and the use of dinosaurs as rhetorical tools (or “missionary lizards”).What’s really behind the culture wars between science and religion…and how it is that fundamentalists can come to believe they’re practicing better science than the scientists.The fractal weirdness of culture wars between different sects of American Christianity about matters of scientific investigation.Amusement parks and museums as architectural arguments for particular worldviews.Why so many people distrust science, and why people seek out preposterous but easy-to-understand narratives when history moves too fast for comfort.What it looks like when 21st Century global industry meets 1st Century religious zealotry: giant warehouses full of masterfully produced educational media for Bible propaganda.Why our origin story and Earth history will probably always be an issue of contention and an area where people will distrust scientists.How faith and hope appears in the science of the abstract and its practitioners: both legitimate high energy physics, and illegitimate cold fusion.Religious privilege versus religious freedom (and how trying to teach Genesis in high school biology is not about religious freedom, but power).Entering a recombinant flux of personal worldviews, thanks to the Web, in which all possible religions exist.What is the tipping point where an abstract risk becomes tangible enough for all of us to agree on its existence, much less a strategy for adaptation?Mentions:Bill Nye, Ken Ham, Mirta Galesic, Henrik Olsson, Walt Disney World, Universal Studios Florida, Isaac Newton, Aristophanes, Charles Darwin, Steve Brusatte, David B.

If you're familiar with our guest, it'll come as no surprise that we talked to him about dinosaurs. Steve went past the topics of his bestselling book "The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs" and told us: — What are the weirdest theories about dinosaur extinction (including cataracts and locusts)? — How did dinosaurs procreate? — How did feathers and wings evolve in dinosaurs? — What other interesting topics does paleontology cover? Listen to us for your weekly helping of dino-trivia and a special movie recommendation from our host Petko. === All the show notes are at ratio.bg/podcast/46.

Who doesn't love dinosaurs? Dr Steve Brusatte certainly does and his knowledge, story telling and passion for the subject are utterly infectious. In this Brainwaves Pennie Latin joins Steve in his Edinburgh laboratory to discuss the 5 fossils which best capture his love of the subject together with a flavour of a story which lasted over 180 million years then ended so dramatically with a mass extinction. Among his chosen 5 fossils Steve discusses the Sauropod trackways he discovered on the Isle of Skye, Scotland's Jurassic Park, in 2015 and the extraordinary fossil of a Zhenyuanlong which he first saw in China and is a brilliant example of a feathered dinosaur.

Joint winner of the 2009 Nobel Prize for Chemistry, Venki Ramakrishnan’s work has gone past the whys and wherefores of DNA and on to the ribosome, the structure which helps decode our genetic make-up. In a live event at the Edinburgh International Book Festival 2019 the President of The Royal Society and Gene Machine author shares stories about his first uncertain experiments and making genuine scientific breakthroughs. An enlightening hour of conversation with Steve Brusatte.

Brian Cox and Robin Ince return for a new series of their multi-award winning science/comedy show. They kick off with arguably any child's first interest in science - dinosaurs! They are joined by comedian Rufus Hound and palaeontologists Susannah Maidment from the Natural History Museum and Steve Brusatte from the University of Edinburgh to find out what the latest research and exciting fossil finds have revealed about these epic creatures. Are we in a new age of dinosaur discovery? What are the big questions that dinosaur hunters are hoping to uncover, and did they go extinct at all? Producer: Alexandra Feachem

Last year, paleontologist Steve Brusatte changed all of our lives for the better with the publication of his popular science book, "The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs: A New History of a Lost World." First of all, we're always here for dinosaurs. But Brusatte brought something really unique to the conversation about dinosaurs: a wide-angle lens of words that captures not just the facts as we know them about the dinosaurs themselves, but a social history of the hunt for dinosaur fossils, the development of new methods of research and study in laboratories around the world, and the diversification of those involved in the research themselves. His book is a portrait of a community working to bring new revelations about this fascinating field of study to light, and we couldn't be more excited to have Brusatte on the 'cast to talk about that community, his book, and dinosaurs on the screen and page. You can find Brusatte's award-winning book, "The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs," wherever good books are found. You can read more of his words on the "Scientific American," NatGeoKids, and "Guardian" websites. And you can find out more about the author as well as his current and future work by following him on Twitter at @SteveBrusatte. Like our content?

Why are there so many new, weird dinosaurs? Friend of the show Joel Werner goes down the rabbit hole, and finds a surprising answer. He speaks to paleontologists Dr. Steve Brusatte and Dr. Jonathan Tennant. Listen to Joel’s podcast The Sum Of All Parts here:  https://ab.co/2YujtzU. Check out the transcript here: http://bit.ly/2Ts169i Science Vs will be back in September with a brand new season! UPDATE 8/13/19: We removed some lines suggesting that the reason that Joel and other people growing up in the 80s don't know about some dinosaurs, such as Spinosaurus and Edmontosaurus is because of the "Dino Explosion" in the 1990s. In fact, Spinosaurus was introduced in the scientific literature in 1915 and Edmontosaurus in 1917.  Credits: This story came from the podcast the Sum of All Parts which is produced and hosted by Joel Werner. Jonathan Webb is their science editor, sound design by Joel Werner and Mark Don. Additional fact checking by Lexi Krupp and additional music and engineering by Peter Leonard. 

Why does my three-year-old know more about dinosaurs than I do?

Host Daniel Raimi talks with Sarah Propst, the Cabinet Secretary of the Energy, Minerals, and Natural Resources Department for the state of New Mexico. New Mexico recently enacted legislation to transition to 100 percent zero carbon electricity by the year 2050, and to provide transition assistance to workers and communities affected by the changing energy landscape. Daniel and Sarah discuss how the bill was developed, how much it's going to cost, and what other steps New Mexico is taking to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

"Is there is any way of knowing what noises, if any, dinosaurs would have made?" asks Freddie Quinn, aged 8 from Cambridge in New Zealand. From Jurassic Park to Walking with Dinosaurs, the roars of gigantic dinosaurs like T.Rex are designed to evoke fear and terror. But did dinosaurs actually roar? And how do paleontologists investigate what noises these extinct animals may have produced? Hannah and Adam talk to dinosaur experts Steve Brusatte and Julia Clarke to find out. Plus Jurassic World sound designer Al Nelson reveals the strange sounds they used as dinosaur noises in their Hollywood blockbusters. Send your questions for next series in to curiouscases@bbc.co.uk.

Today I present to you Steve Brusatte, author of The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs: A New History of the Lost World. The entirety of the book is brilliant but the way Steve talks about T-rexes and the Asteroid are some of the most compelling reading you'll come across. What's so great about this show is Steve's passion for his work and the story behind the book, which is part serendipity, but more just how doing your THING, whatever that is over and over and over again SHOWING UP and what good things can come if that happens. It's what I like to say is BEING IN THE GAME. You can't be noticed, you can't be recognized unless you're putting it out there. I love Steve's passion and energy and I hope you do too.

Welcome to Check It Out!, a podcast for lifelong learners with inquiring minds. In this inaugural episode, host Ken Harvey, who doubles as Sno-Isle Libraries communications director, introduces himself and his co-hosts. In upcoming episodes, listeners will meet the amazing spectrum of people who work at, use and collaborate with Sno-Isle Libraries. Listeners will learn about all of the services the library district offers at its 23 community libraries, Library on Wheels, and online. In addition to this website, Check It Out! will soon be available wherever you get your podcasts. Joining this first conversation are: Paul Pitkin, the Sno-Isle Libraries Foundation director who brings his talents as a singer, songwriter and self-proclaimed adequate guitarist and pianist to bear on helping fund library programs. Listen for his near-miss with a Ph.D. in poli sci.     Cindy Tingley, with the Sno-Isle Libraries talent development group who became very familiar with police procedures while serving on the force in her hometown, Key West, Fla. You can bet that folks sit up straight when she’s teaching a class. Listen for the answer to: “What is a square grouper?”     Jim Hills, the library district’s public information manager, a storyteller who claims to still have some ink in his veins from familial connections with and previous career infusions from the newspaper biz. Listen for the probably exaggerated 70 mph incident.     Topping off this episode’s conversation is Book Notes, because no library podcast would be complete without occasional reading recommendations. Lindsey Anderson, a member of our Readers Services team, describes Circe, Madeline Miller’s rich tale about the misunderstood witch from Homer’s Odyssey; and The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs: A New History of the Lost World by paleontologist Steve Brusatte.  

Streamed live on 18 June 2018. We love dinosaurs, and their story is a big one. In this episode we talked with paleontologist Steve Brusatte about his new book, The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs: A New History of a Lost World. Dinosaurs were, by a huge margin, the most successful group of animals […]

Dinosaurs have been a fascination of mine since I was a boy. That seems to be true for many young boys and girls. I loved asking my guest on this episode of the City Voice podcast, paleontologist Steve Brusatte, for his opinion of who wins in a sprinters death race. Gold medal Olympic sprinter Usain Bolt or T-Rex. Back to my fascination with Dinos...Fast forward to the 1993 release of the original Jurassic Park movie. It seems that in the 25 years or so since the premiere of Jurassic Park we have a crop of passionate young men and woman that have become paleontologists and entered into other "Dino related" fields. Coincidence? Aaah no. Steve Brusatte agrees Jurassic Park had a major influence. He also gives credit to charismatic and brilliant giants in the field like Dr. Robert Bakker. Bakker actually was a Jurassic Park consultant in the 90's. That's when I had a number of brief opportunities to work with him and learn that Dinos might have had wings and that they might be warm-blooded. Since that time Brusatte has found Dinos with feathers among the fifteen dinosaurs he has named. In fact, he says T. Rex likely had a kind of feathers. We talk about the T. Rex evolutionary line and whether that line connects with alligators and lizards or the Mocking Bird outside my house. Steve Brusatte is the author of The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs, A New History of a Lost World. He is also a paleontologist at the University of Edinburgh. A graduate of University of Chicago and Columbia University. He writes for Scientific American and is the resident paleontologist for the BBC's walking with dinosaurs. Brusatte says, "this is the Golden Age of Dinosaurs" about one new species a week is being found. How amazing is that? After reading The Rise and Fall of Dinosaurs I believe Brusatte's work has the potential to inspire would-be new Dino Hunters and feed curious minds everywhere.  For me, The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs was a fascinating and enjoyable read and conversation about Earth, Dinosaurs, how MOST of them became extinct, and what we can learn from it all. Thanks for listening. Don’t forget to subscribe to City Voice and share with your friends. SHOW LINKS Want the book? The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs, A New History of a Lost World

Today begins with info on a very strange side effect of getting bit by a tick, but quickly moves into a more saucy conversation. We debate whether kissing is hot or gross (is this really a debate?). We learn what personality traits predict whether a person has been kissed by college. Susie talks about why orgasm equality is so important in our discussions about sexuality. We find out the history of sex studies, and why they're sometimes not reliable. Plus, we talk about Allison Mack's alleged sex cult. Finally, we interview dinosaur expert & author, Steve Brusatte.

Two small creatures are at the heart of today’s questions, sent in to curiouscases@bbc.co.uk. The Tiniest Dinosaur "What is the tiniest dinosaur?" asks young listener Ellie Cook, aged 11. Our hunt takes us from the discovery of dinosaurs right up to the present day, which is being hailed as a 'golden age' for palaeontology. Currently, one new species of dinosaur is unearthed on average every single week. But what's the smallest dino? And what can size reveal about the life of extinct animals? Hannah Fry goes underground at the Natural History Museum in London to look through their vaults in search of the tiniest dinosaur with palaeontologist Susie Maidment. Meanwhile Adam Rutherford chats to dinosaur expert Steve Brusatte from Edinburgh University about why size really does matter, especially when it comes to fossils. The Baffled Bat "Why don't thousands of bats in a cave get confused? How do they differentiate their own location echoes from those of other bats?" This puzzling problem was sent in by Tim Beard from Hamburg in Germany. Since eco-location was first discovered, this question has perplexed biologists. Hannah turns bat detective to try and track down these elusive creatures at The Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in East London. This is where zoologist Kate Jones from University College London is using a network of smart sensors to find, identify and track wild bats. Bat researcher and impressionist John Ratcliffe from Toronto University explains how bats use sonar to find their way around, and the clever tricks they’ve developed along the way. It's an unlikely tale involving gruesome early experiments, cunning electric fish and some surprising bat maths. (Image: Dinosaurs and a meteor falling from the sky in back background.

“Ah, eventually you DO plan to TALK ABOUT dinosaurs on this dinosaur podcast, right? Hello? Yes?”- Ian Malcolm about this episode.This week’s guest is professional dinosaur hunter Steve Brusatte, paleontology professor at the University of Edinburgh and author of The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs: A New History of a Lost World.https://twitter.com/stevebrusatteSubscribe on Apple Podcasts • Stitcher • Spotify • iHeart RadioJoin our Facebook Discussion GroupBeyond being a totally awesome – and more importantly, FRESH – take on the Mesozoic Era that weaves vital updates from the last twenty years of discovery into the official story, this book also paints a rich and lively portrait of the human beings who actually do dinosaur science. Their stories moved me as much as the story of how the dinosaurs evolved, came to dominate the landscape, and then disappeared. The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs offers more than the “what” of prehistory; it also offers us the “who” and “how” and “where” and “why,” and it will be a spiritual experience for anyone as into dinosaurs OR science OR science writing as I am.Plus, Steve’s great fun to talk to. He’s totally contagious.WE DISCUSS:• How we’re living through a worldwide renaissance of paleontology, a “Golden Age of Dinosaur Science” – and how itis related to deeper historical and economic trends – such as the opening of new international trade routes, increasing access to science education, and accelerating global development (the movement of wealth discovers dragons);• How the technology and methods of dinosaur science have advanced dramatically over the last few decades – but it’s still “a discovery science” that requires people out in the field, opening the ground and looking for new fossils;• Steve’s legendary globetrotting professors Paul Sereno and Mark Norell, and how their generous mentorship launched his career;• How paleontology remains one of the most awesome lifestyles for anyone with the spirit of an adventurer;• The role of landscape in stimulating the imagination – especially for bored Midwestern children whose imaginations fill the empty space with visions of lost worlds;• What it’s like to BE a paleontologist and to know about the history of the land where you are, to have insights into the Deep Time Big Story and how it relates you to the ground on which you walk;• How time perception changes when you’re in the badlands doing paleontological field research;• Michael’s childhood mentor and role model, rockstar revolutionary “heretical” paleontologist Robert T. Bakker, who had a habit of weaving Bible scripture and Broadway musical numbers into his energetic and engaging dinosaur ecology talks;• The major role that contingency plays in mass extinctions and the rise and fall of groups that otherwise seem dominant (like dinosaurs, and humans) – ie, “How do you become dominant? How do you rise up from nothing and become a BRONTOSAURUS?”• And the major role that MYSTERY plays in our understanding of the ancient world;• Oh, and we also talk about dinosaurs! For like half an hour. About Tyrannosauroidea, specifically, and how T. rex rose to greatness. And how to survive a mass extinction. But you’ll just have to listen for the rest.QUOTES:“I’m always thinking about, ‘Where is this area, where was it during the Mesozoic Era, what was it like when Pangaea was still around, what kind of environments were there, what kind of dinosaurs were living there?’ Just having this perspective, when you travel around on the Earth, of looking at landscapes and being able to see the looooooong history of those landscapes. Being able to see in the shapes of hills, and the types of rocks that are exposed, and the colors of those rocks, being able to see deep distant pasts, reconstructing vanished worlds. And I think that’s part of the magic of sciences like paleontology and geology…and probably nobody that’s not a paleontologist or geologist thinks like that. I’m sure we just think really strangely.”- Steve Brusatte“Nobody in science ever does anything alone. MAYBE in mathematics you can be a lone genius and figure out some great proof just sitting alone in your boxers in the dark, or whatever, but MOST science is NOT LIKE THAT. It’s collaborative, you work with teams, you NEED teams, and you need good mentorship when you’re student. So now that I run my own lab, I just hope I can provide for my own students what my mentors did to me.”- Steve Brusatte“There’s something just indescribable about that feeling of finding and holding and appreciating fossil objects. And that never gets old. A new fossil discovery never gets old.”- Steve Brusatte“Studying dinosaurs isn’t going to save the world, of course…BUT…”- Steve Brusatte See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Optimism and dinosaurs often go hand in hand. Whenever dinosaurs and humans meet it tends to turn out pretty well. And with brain tumors you've got Phenomenon, where he becomes a genius.

Today's hunt takes us from the discovery of dinosaurs right up to the present day, which is being hailed as a 'golden age' for palaeontology. One new species of dinosaur is currently being unearthed on average every single week. But what's the smallest dino? And what can size reveal about the life of extinct animals?

Theropods are what we would classically recognise as the meat-eating dinosaurs of the Mesozoic Era. They are best known from genera such as Tyrannosaurus and Velociraptor but the group is much more diverse and includies herbivores, beaked and ostrich-like forms. It is however the link between theropods and birds that has long-caught the public's attention and perhaps represents one of the most scrutinised evolutionary transitions. As more dinosaurs are discovered with feathers, should we still be asking  where the cut-off point is between the two groups and not if there should be a distinction? We caught up with Dr. Steve Brusatte, University of Edinburgh,  at the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology meeting, who spoke to us about the relationship between theropods and birds.
