What These Dinosaurs Really Looked Like

What These Dinosaurs Really Looked Like

•

Fossilization is an unlikely event, but when it occurs under specific conditions, it gives us a detailed view of the past. In this episode, we explore dinosaurs that have been preserved so perfectly that we know exactly what they looked like.


Join us as we discuss:

  • The AMNH 5060 Edmontosaurus Mummy and its formation
  • The effects of flash floods and mineralization
  • Introducing "Dakota" - the best-preserved dinosaur ever found
  • The Suncor Nodosaur discovery
  • An interview with Dr. Donald Henderson on dinosaur preservation
  • Reconstructing dinosaur colors with melanosomes
  • The role of digital modeling in studying dinosaur locomotion
  • Insights from synchrotron imaging and proteins
  • The discovery of the "Cloaca Mummy"

From apex predators to the planet's strangest creatures, Animalogic delves into the science, behavior, and biology of the animal kingdom, one species at a time.
