Pezosiren, the Walking Manatee

(image source: https://dinopedia.fandom.com/wiki/Pezosiren)Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Laura Owsley discuss Pezosiren, a hippo-like ancestor of manatees when they weren’t quite sea cows but sea-ish cows. Semiaquatic cows. Except not cows. From the Eocene epoch, this 7-foot sirenian mammal lived quite the peaceful life in its lagoon habitat, floating and grazing the fronds of seagrass… at least when it wasn’t being violently torn apart by crocodiles, sharks, and early whales. Mmm… sea beef…Want to further support the show? Sign up to our Patreon for exclusive bonus content at Patreon.com/MatthewDonald.
