• 27. Found a Fossil with Sally Hurst

  Adele chats with special guest Sally Hurst about the Found a Fossil project and what to do if you think you found an ancient relic or archaeological artefact in Australia! Sally shares what it was like growing up in rural New South Wales, working at the National Dinosaur Museum, and how her love of archaeology, ancient Egypt and dinosaurs led her to science communication and surveying the Australian public.

• 24. Protemnodon with Isaac Kerr

  Adele bounces off ideas with Dr Isaac Kerr to talk about extinct kangaroos! Isaac kicks things off by telling us about trips to New Guinea, the Smithsonian, American Natural History Museum and the NHM, photographing specimens and 3D scanning. We then hop into Protemnodon, discussing three new species, fieldwork in Lake Callabonna, and why fossil hunting is like fishing crossed with Christmas. Isaac's Monograph Systematics and palaeobiology of kangaroos of the late Cenozoic genus Protemnodon (Marsupialia, Macropodidae)Flinders UniversityGiant kangaroos bounce back from the pastThe ConversationWe found three new species of extinct giant kangaroo – and we don’t know why they died out when their cousins survivedABC NewsFlinders University researchers identify three new species of extinct kangarooPals in Palaeo @palsinpalaeoHost: Adele Pentland @palaeodelOnline StoreTranscriptsThe Pals in Palaeo Cover ArtJenny Zhao Design @jennyzdesignCrumpet Club House@crumpetclubhouse The Pals in Palaeo Theme MusicHello Kelly @hellokellymusic Podcast Producer + Editor Jean-César Puechmarin @cesar_on_safariPodcast EditorFrançois "Francy" Goudreault @hellofrancy
