Prehistoric Australia was home to some of the scariest creatures ever. Imagine running into a giant, meat-eating kangaroo or a massive, 20-foot-long crocodile! There were also huge birds called "demon ducks" that couldn't fly but could chase you down. And let's not forget the enormous lizards and snakes that roamed the land. It's safe to say that living in ancient Australia would have been like living in a real-life monster movie! Credit: CC BY 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...

Dr Aaron Camens studies the fossilised skeletons, footprints and soft tissue left behind by strange, alien-like behemoths, to work out how they lived, and what, or who, killed them

Adele's joined by special guest Dr Aaron Camens from Flinders University to talk about the original drop bear and so-called marsupial lion, Thylacoleo carnifex! We talk about combining fossils with footprints and bite marks to get the facts on the ankle-biting hunting tactics of this ambush predator, its weird opposable thumbs, and the roles of climate change and First Nations peoples in the megafauna mass extinction. Plus a teaser for National Science Week involving ABC Catalyst with mechanical bite force experiments, honourable mentions for Microleo, and the parallels between panic buying toilet paper and competitive exclusion.

There's something quite delightful about seeing the skeleton of a prehistoric animal move in a way that it might have moved when the bones were covered in flesh, and the animal was alive. Jack O Conner is a PhD candidate at Monash University, and that's exactly what he's doing at the Evans EvoMorph Lab.   In this episode of Palaeo Jam, host Michael Mills chats with Jack about how he came to be doing what he does, explores the process of creating the models, and what it's like to see such creatures brought to life in this way. Such work, of course, fits well into the science communication field for which Michael has built a career, and both Michael and Jack discuss some of the important elements of science communication, and why it matters.   You can find Jack's models of Thylacoleo carnifex, Zygomaturus trilobus, Siderops kehli, and Perucetus colossus on Sketchfab at… https://skfb.ly/oPsJs   We think it's well worth checking out the models before you listen to the podcast if you can, or even while you're listening to it.   Be sure, too, to check out our episode on the Virtual Australian Museum of Palaeontology (VAMP), at https://palaeojam.podbean.com/e/vamp-it-up/ to hear about where some of the source material come from for Jack's work. It is an absolutely brilliant resource.   You can follow Jack O'Conner on Instagram at @jackodesign https://www.instagram.com/jackocdesign/   And follow Monash Science at @monash_science https://www.instagram.com/monash_science/   The Evans EvoMorph Lab is on Twitter at @EvansEvoMorph https://twitter.com/evansevomorph   You can find Palaeo Jam host Michael Mills on Twitter at @heapsgood https://twitter.com/Heapsgood   To connect with Dinosaur University on Facebook, follow us at https://www.facebook.com/DinosaurUniversity   On Instagram at @dinosauruniversity https://www.instagram.com/dinosauruniversity/   And on Twitter at @DinosaurUni https://twitter.com/DinosaurUni   Palaeo Jam also now has its own Instagram account at @palaeo_jam https://www.instagram.com/palaeo_jam

When we think of Australia and its wildlife, the first thing that comes to mind is the iconic, often-hopping, marsupials! (Ok… and all the things might kill and maim you!) In exploring Australia's recent prehistoric past, it's also often the marsupials that we get to hear of. Giant wombats, rather large, short-faced kangaroos, and leopard-sized, scissor-toothed, tree-climbing pouched predators!   What we don't often think of, is Australia as a land of vultures and flamingoes! And yet, the evidence now tells us that these birds also made Australia home. We've known about flamingoes living in the Land Down Under for a while, but its only very recently that fossils have come to light to tell us that vultures in Australia were also a thing.   In this episode of Palaeo Jam, host Michael Mills chats with Dr Ellen Mather, Adjunct Associate lecturer at Flinders University, and Tim Niederer, PhD student, also at Flinders University, about these lesser known Australians, what we know of them, and why they may have gone extinct.   A great article examining Ellen's recent work on the discovery of vultures in Australia can be found here… https://theconversation.com/it-was-long-thought-these-fossils-came-from-an-eagle-turns-out-they-belong-to-the-only-known-vulture-species-from-australia-187017   Ellen was also co-author for an article on a prehistoric species of eagle…  https://theconversation.com/meet-the-prehistoric-eagle-that-ruled-australian-forests-25-million-years-ago-168249   You can find Ellen on Twitter at https://twitter.com/Ellenaetus   Here's a link to a 1963 chapter on fossilised flamingo bones from Australia… https://sora.unm.edu/sites/default/files/journals/condor/v065n04/p0289-p0299.pdf   And here's a short mention in National Geographic… https://www.australiangeographic.com.au/topics/wildlife/2017/02/australia-was-once-full-of-flamingos/   We all very much look forward to the additional insights that Tim's research will bring to our understanding of the place of these fascinating birds in Australia.   You can find Tim on Twitter at https://twitter.com/Gaylaeontology   Each episode of Palaeo Jam is recorded with a strict 30 minute time-limit and is unedited. What you hear is how it went! As part of each episode, the host and each guest bring along an object to open the discussion on the day's theme. Michael's item was part of a skull of Thylacoleo. Tune in to find out what Ellen and Tim brought along, and what it all means for what prehistoric Australia looked like.

Today, we head south and plummet into the lore surrounding the Drop Bear. This ferocious, ambush predator has a long history of terrorizing the forests of Australia, but is there more to the story? Fossil records, current sightings, and a connection to another well-known Australian cryptid, we explore all that the Drop Bear is. Grab your bushman hat and don't forget the vegemite, we're going on an adventure. Welcome back to Infinite Rabbit Hole.

Did you know that long ago there were giant creatures that walked the earth?We know about dinosaurs, but have you heard of megabeasts?Megabeasts still exist today! They are very large animals like the elephant and the rhino! There were other megabeasts that once walked the earth which are now extinct!

In our last episode for Season 1, we get trapped at the World Heritage Site, Naracoorte Caves in southeast Australia! We'll learn about Australia's weird megafauna like the not-tapir-like-Marsupial Tapir and the hypercarnivore, Marsupial Lion, Thylacoleo, and why so many of their bones are found in these caves.

The Queensland Tiger is a little known legend that stalks areas across Queensland. Some say it's extinct... but it could be a CERTAIN family pet from years ago.

Thylacoleo carnifex , the marsupial lion, was Australia's top order mammalian carnivore and a real life 'drop bear'. This week we chat with Dr. Aaron Camens, paleontologist at Flinders University and co-author of a recently published paper which analyses the first compete skeleton reconstruction of this highly adapted predator. Spare a thought for the early Australians who had to contend with this 100kg semi-arboreal hunter they may have dropped onto its prey with its sharp hooked-claws, razor-sharp teeth and possibly, pound for pound, the most powerful bite of mammal species!

Hacia 1830, el explorador escocés Thomas Mitchell recogió en las cercanías de la ciudad de Wellington, en Nueva Gales del Sur, dos dientes fósiles, un incisivo y un premolar. Eran unos dientes extraordinarios que el famoso paleontólogo inglés sir Richard Owen, creador del término “dinosaurio”, identificó mucho más tarde como una nueva especie de gran carnívoro marsupial, a la que bautizó con el nombre de Thylacoleo carnifex, “león marsupial carnicero”.
