Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Dinosaur with the Widest Wingspan Ever
Q: Can you tell us about the Six Extinctions exhibit and what visitors can expect?
The exhibit covers all major mass extinctions through Earth history, including current human-driven extinction, with fossils, casts, murals, and a focus on how biodiversity changed over time, including birds, mollusks, and dinosaurs.
A new species of Spinosaurus and Ogden's Dinosaur Park
Q: What can visitors expect when they go there and what sort of dinosaurs can they see?
Jeff Bond describes a park with eight acres, hundreds of outdoor and indoor exhibits, numerous animatronic dinosaurs, a working paleontology lab, and ongoing expansion to host in-house sculpture fabrication and seasonal changes that align with evolving science.
Paleontologist Interviews: Steve Brusatte on How Birds Survived the Dinosaur Extinction
Q: What inspired you to write The Story of Birds and focus on birds after non-avian dinosaurs and mammals?
Brusatte explains that the narrative of birds as living dinosaurs emerged naturally from his study of their ancestry, with modern birds evolving from dinosaur lineages and adapting through mass extinctions and ecological shifts, which made writing about birds a logical continuation of his broader dinosaur-focused work.
Mark Witton and the King Tyrant
Q: What inspired you to write King Tyrant and how does it differ from previous Tyrannosaurus books?
King Tyrant was conceived to fill a gap in syntheses of Tyrannosaurus knowledge, bringing together the latest research, imagery, and a broad overview of the organism in both scientific and public-facing terms, while acknowledging ongoing debates and new discoveries that might shift our understanding.
Zofia Kielan-Jaworowska with History Dispatches
Q: What was the hardest thing for her that she had to overcome?
She faced logistical challenges in organizing expeditions rather than direct gender-based obstacles.
