This episode, we take a super up-close look at the tiniest components of the fossil record, the microscopic remains that are so essential to our understanding of earth history, and the field of study devoted to them: Micropaleontology. In the news: daytime mammals, unusual dinosaur teeth, the dinosaur family tree (again), and dead male mammoths.
