Spinosaurus, the Spined Lizard

(image source: “Spinosaurus Through the Decades” by Mario Lanzas)Happy 200 episodes! Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Stephen Curro discuss Spinosaurus, a creature with so many different updates changing it up constantly it’s practically a modern video game. Was it a biped or a quadruped? Was it terrestrial or aquatic? Did it have a sail or a fin? Did it have a trunk like an elephant seal? Okay, that last one I made up, but hey, you never know. From the Mid Cretaceous, this 50-foot theropod lived in Africa and was very big, but that’s the extent of the certainty of our knowledge. Everything else is subject to change. Hell, this episode will be outdated within a week, I’m sure.Want to further support the show? Sign up to our Patreon for exclusive bonus content at Patreon.com/MatthewDonald.
