An Asian King
from The Natural History Cupboard Podcast · host Gareth
This week we meet Tyrannosaurus rex‘s Asian cousin, Tarbosaurus! We see how similar it is to its North American relative, but also what makes it its own unique Asian "King of the Cretaceous". In the news, we look at how the USA government’s "God's squad" is meeting to decide the fate of the Rice's whale in the Gulf of Mexico. We talk about if anything can be done to save the animals of this area from the greed of the the oil industry. All this and more.
