The NeoJurassic Podcast : The Wild Possibilities of a Jurassic World
“Dinosaurs and man, two species separated by sixty-five million years of evolution have just been suddenly thrown back into the mix together. How can we possibly have the slightest idea what to expect?” That’s a question I haven’t been able to stop thinking about since Alan Grant first posed it back in the summer of 93. Throughout the course of this season, we’ll be exploring some of the many fascinating questions that just might arise in a world shared by mankind and dinosaurs alike. As I am but a committed super fan with many more questions than answers, we’ll of course be taking these questions on with the help of an array of experts: paleontologists, zoologists, paleoartists, crispr conservationists, animal behaviorists, ecologists, and many others. Together, we’ll be exploring the scientific realities of their work, unexplored concepts from Michael Crichton’s novels & what surprising new developments we might be seeing in the very near future of the ‘Jurassic’ franchise.
