dinosaurs, the brontosaurus and diplodocus and brachiosauruses. And then the third group is the ornithischian dinosaurs. And this is a whole variety of mostly plant-eating dinosaurs that had beaks and that could chew their food really well like triceratops, the ones with plates on their backs like stegosaurus, the duck-billed dinosaurs, the armored dinosaurs, the ones with the domeheads that headbutt at each other. Those are all ornithischian dinosaurs. So as you can see, there's this great diversity of dinosaurs that was starting to establish itself in the Triassic
The glaciers grew into ice sheets. And that helped drive the temperature of the entire world to be much cooler. Now, this was a long-term trend then that continued to happen for many tens of millions beaks . These were some of the birds that had beaks and those beaks were very good at eating seeds.
The glaciers grew into ice sheets. And that helped drive the temperature of the entire world to be much cooler. Now, this was a long-term trend then that continued to happen for many tens of millions a beak may have saved a little bit of weight for flying. Being a very lightweight is important, but really it probably had more to do with diet with what these animals were eating. Maybe with
Their tails are docked. Their ears are clipped. Their beaks are seared off, just horrible mutilations, and drugs, and violence. It's just an extremely horrific life. And then they're taken off and killed.

The glaciers grew into ice sheets. And that helped drive the temperature of the entire world to be much cooler. Now, this was a long-term trend then that continued to happen for many tens of millions did not have beaks . The first birds had a bunch of small little razor-sharp steak-knife teeth on their jaws that looked just like the teeth of a velociraptor. Archaeopteryx, the very oldest true
the most exciting photo assignment of my young career I just thought I didn't want to be a biologist didn't want to spend time with beakers I wanted to take pictures and be in the wild with animals and and my career was working it was going great and I got an assignment to the Galapagos Islands in Ecuador and 160 miles north of the Galapagos sits two
stress disorder, which is essentially a form of post-traumatic stress disorder that comes about when people are put in situations to do things that they find morally They still have their beaks cut off.
The glaciers grew into ice sheets. And that helped drive the temperature of the entire world to be much cooler. Now, this was a long-term trend then that continued to happen for many tens of millions and the teeth are replaced by a beak . This seems to have happened not just once but many times independently. It might have had something to do with flying, at least in part losing teeth, having
But fortunately, there are artists who work with scientists to then make reconstructions like this, which doesn't show you the radula unfortunately, but it is showing you this beak out of which the radula would have unfolded. And the whole structure of the animal is based around that knowledge of it being something that eats plankton.
But he put $10 million, it became about $80 million in two or three years. One of them is called "The Beak of the Finch." I think Jonathan Weiner is the name of the author.

This is an object, it's a 3D model. This is a Bronze Age beaker, and the beaker people are to do with the introduction of bronze in Northern Europe. They're very significant in that period in sort of when agriculture becomes properly settled, and they made these fancy pots.
put some compounds in a beaker and heat it up, you might look like you're doing science.
something filled with feathers and bones and beaks and blood and all that sort of stuff so this was a very new discipline
The glaciers grew into ice sheets. And that helped drive the temperature of the entire world to be much cooler. Now, this was a long-term trend then that continued to happen for many tens of millions Others looked a whole lot like birds today with a beak , with a short stubby tail, with the fan of tailfeathers.
