Ever wondered what itβs like to uncover and prepare real dinosaur fossils? π¦ In this exclusive interview, we talk with H. McLean, a professional fossil preparator, about the fascinating world of fossil collection, fieldwork, and preparation.We dive into:What a fossil preparator actually doesThe toughest challenges faced in the field and the labHow fossils are carefully extracted and preservedWhat kind of training and skills are needed to enter this careerH. McLeanβs most exciting fossil discoveries and stories from the fieldWhether you’re a student, an aspiring paleontologist, or just a fan of prehistoric life, this interview gives you a rare look behind the scenes of fossil science.π Donβt forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more fossil-filled content!ποΈ Hosted by Prehistoric Life Podcast: π Website: prehistoriclifepodcast.com π Support the show: patreon.com/c/PrehistoricLifePodcast 𦴠This Episode is Sponsored By: π Dinosaur Trips β Go on a fossil-hunting adventure of a lifetime! π¦ Mention Prehistoric Life Podcast at checkout and get $250 off your tickets: π dinosaurtrips.com π¦ DinosaurSkeletons.co.uk β For museum-quality fossil replicas and decor: π dinosaurskeletons.co.uk#Fossils #Paleontology #FossilPreparator #Dinosaurs #Fieldwork #ScienceInterview #STEMCareers #FossilHunting
In this in-depth interview, I sit down with paleontologist Ray Wilhite, a leading expert on the limb anatomy of sauropod dinosaurs from the Morrison Formation. We explore how these prehistoric giants moved, how their limb structure evolved, and what their bones reveal about their biology and behavior.π Topics Covered:Sauropod locomotion and biomechanicsInsights from the Morrison FormationLimb structure comparisons among sauropodsWhat fossilized limbs tell us about dinosaur evolutionIf you’re fascinated by sauropods or dinosaur anatomy, this is an interview you won’t want to miss!π Subscribe for more paleontology interviews and discussions!ποΈ Hosted by Prehistoric Life Podcast: π Website: prehistoriclifepodcast.com π Support the show: patreon.com/c/PrehistoricLifePodcast 𦴠This Episode is Sponsored By: π Dinosaur Trips β Go on a fossil-hunting adventure of a lifetime! π¦ Mention Prehistoric Life Podcast at checkout and get $250 off your tickets: π dinosaurtrips.com π¦ DinosaurSkeletons.co.uk β For museum-quality fossil replicas and decor: π dinosaurskeletons.co.uk#Sauropods #DinosaurAnatomy #RayWilhite #MorrisonFormation #Paleontology #Fossils
In this exciting discussion, I talk with @birds.r.dinosaurs, a science communicator known for their deep dives into bird evolution and dinosaur origins. We explore the fascinating world of pyravian dinosaurs, early birds, and the evolutionary transition from non-avian theropods to the birds we see today.π¦ Topics Include:What makes a dinosaur a “pyravian”?Key fossil discoveries in early bird evolutionFeathered theropods and flight originsMisconceptions about bird-dino relationshipsIf you’re into avian evolution, dino-bird connections, or just love nerding out about feathers and fossils, this one’s for you.πΈ Follow @birds.r.dinosaurs on Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/birds.r.dinosaurs/]π Like, comment, and subscribe for more dino-focused content!ποΈ Hosted by Prehistoric Life Podcast: π Website: prehistoriclifepodcast.com π Support the show: patreon.com/c/PrehistoricLifePodcast 𦴠This Episode is Sponsored By: π Dinosaur Trips β Go on a fossil-hunting adventure of a lifetime! π¦ Mention Prehistoric Life Podcast at checkout and get $250 off your tickets: π dinosaurtrips.com π¦ DinosaurSkeletons.co.uk β For museum-quality fossil replicas and decor: π dinosaurskeletons.co.uk#BirdsAreDinosaurs #Theropods #FeatheredDinosaurs #AvianEvolution #Paleontology
In this episode, I sit down with Colin Boisvert (Instagram), a rising force in paleontology, to explore his fascinating journey into the world of ancient life. π¦We dive deep into:How Colin got started in paleontology πThe different branches of the field (yes, thereβs more than digging!) πThe cutting-edge technology changing how we study fossils π»Where the future of paleontology is headed πWhether you’re a hardcore dinosaur nerd or just curious about science, this conversation is full of insight, passion, and dino-sized inspiration.ποΈ Hosted by Prehistoric Life Podcast: π Website: prehistoriclifepodcast.com π Support the show: patreon.com/c/PrehistoricLifePodcast 𦴠This Episode is Sponsored By: π Dinosaur Trips β Go on a fossil-hunting adventure of a lifetime! π¦ Mention Prehistoric Life Podcast at checkout and get $250 off your tickets: π dinosaurtrips.com π¦ DinosaurSkeletons.co.uk β For museum-quality fossil replicas and decor: π dinosaurskeletons.co.ukπ Donβt forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more science content and epic interviews.#Paleontology #Dinosaurs #Fossils #SciencePodcast #ColinBoisvert #FutureOfPaleo #STEM #ScienceCommunication
