That Time the Mediterranean Sea Disappeared

S04 E01 • Thursday, Jan 9, 2020 • Jan 9 • 10m

How could a body of water as big as the Mediterranean just...disappear? It would take decades and more than 1,000 research studies to even start to figure out the cause -- or causes -- of one of the greatest vanishing acts in Earth’s history.

The Neanderthals That Taught Us About Humanity

S04 E02 • Thursday, Jan 16, 2020 • Jan 16 • 10m

Throughout the first half of the 20th century, Neandertals were thought to have been…primitive. Unintelligent, hunched-over cavemen, for lack of a better word. But the discoveries made in that Iraqi cave provided some of the earliest clues that Neanderthals actually behaved -- and likely thought and felt -- a lot like we do.

The Giant Dinosaur That Was Missing a Body

S04 E03 • Tuesday, Jan 28, 2020 • Jan 28 • 10m

From end to end, its forelimbs alone measured an incredible 2.4 meters long and were tipped with big, comma-shaped claws. But other than its bizarre arms, very little material from this dinosaur had been found: no skull, no feet, almost nothing that could give experts a fuller picture of what this dinosaur actually was.

How South America Made the Marsupials

S04 E04 • Tuesday, Feb 4, 2020 • Feb 4 • 10m

Throughout the Cenozoic Era -- the era we’re in now -- marsupials and their metatherian relatives flourished all over South America, filling all kinds of ecological niches and radiating into forms that still thrive on other continents.

A Short Tale About Diplodocus' Long Neck

S04 E05 • Tuesday, Feb 11, 2020 • Feb 11 • 10m

Long necks gave sauropods a huge advantage when it came to food, but not in the way you think. And this benefit would allow them to become the biggest terrestrial animals of all time!

When the Rainforests Collapsed

S04 E06 • Wednesday, Feb 19, 2020 • Feb 19 • 10m

The Carboniferous Rainforest Collapse set the stage for a takeover that would be a crucial turning point in the history of terrestrial animal life. If it weren’t for that time when the rainforests collapsed - in an extinction event that you probably haven’t heard of - our ancestors might never have made it out of the swamps.

How a Hot Planet Created the World's Biggest Snake

S04 E07 • Thursday, Feb 27, 2020 • Feb 27 • 10m

About 59 million years ago, the largest animal lurking in the ancient forests of Colombia by far was Titanoboa - the largest snake ever known. It’s only been in the past few years that we’ve put together the many pieces of this puzzling creature, but it turns out that the greatest snake that the world ever saw was made possible by a warming planet.

When the Sahara Was Green

S04 E08 • Tuesday, Mar 10, 2020 • Mar 10 • 10m

The climate of the Sahara was completely different thousands of years ago. And we’re not talking about just a few years of extra rain. We’re talking about a climate that was so wet for so long that animals and humans alike made themselves at home in the middle of the Sahara.

When Penguins Went From The Sky To The Sea

S04 E09 • Wednesday, Mar 18, 2020 • Mar 18 • 10m

Today, we think of penguins as small-ish, waddling, tuxedo-birds. But they evolved from a flying ancestor, were actual giants for millions of years, and some of them were even dressed a little more casually.

How the Egg Came First

S04 E10 • Wednesday, Mar 25, 2020 • Mar 25 • 10m

The story of the egg spans millions of years, from the first vertebrates that dared to venture onto land to today’s mammals, including the platypus, and of course birds. Like chickens? We’re here to tell you: The egg came first.

How Dogs (Eventually) Became Our Best Friends

S04 E11 • Tuesday, Mar 31, 2020 • Mar 31 • 10m

We’re still figuring out the details, but most scientists agree that it took thousands of years of interactions to develop our deep bond with dogs. When did they first become domesticated? Where did this happen? And what did the process look like, in terms of genetics and anatomy?

When a Billion Years Disappeared

S04 E12 • Wednesday, Apr 15, 2020 • Apr 15 • 10m

In some places, the rocks below the Great Unconformity are about 1.2 billion years older than those above it. This missing chapter in Earth’s history might be linked to a fracturing supercontinent, out-of-control glaciers, and maybe the diversification of life itself.

The Risky Paleo Diets of Our Ancestors

S04 E13 • Wednesday, Apr 22, 2020 • Apr 22 • 10m

We can track our history of eating just about anything back through the fossil record and see the impact it’s had on our evolution. Throughout time, part of the secret to our success as a species has been our early - and sometimes fatal - experimentation with food.

How the Andes Mountains Might Have Killed a Bunch of Whales

S04 E14 • Wednesday, Apr 29, 2020 • Apr 29 • 10m

At a site known as Cerro Ballena or Whale Hill, there are more than 40 skeletons of marine mammals -- a graveyard of ocean life dating back 6.5 million to 9 million years ago, in the Late Miocene Epoch. But the identity of the killer that they finally settled on might surprise you.

How Plants Caused the First Mass Extinction

S04 E15 • Tuesday, May 12, 2020 • May 12 • 10m

In the middle of the Cambrian, life on land was about to get a little more crowded. And those newcomers would end up changing the world. The arrival of plants on land would make the world colder, drain much of the oxygen out of the oceans and eventually, it would help cause a massive extinction event.

The Two Viruses That We’ve Had For Millions of Years

S04 E16 • Wednesday, May 20, 2020 • May 20 • 10m

There’s one kind of herpesvirus that’s specific to one species of primate, and each virus split off from the herpesvirus family tree when the primate split off from its own tree. But of course, humans are a special kind of primate.

How We Identified One of Earth’s Earliest Animals

S04 E17 • Thursday, May 28, 2020 • May 28 • 10m

Scientists had no idea what type of organisms the life forms of the Ediacaran were—lichen, colonies of bacteria, fungi or something else. It turns out, the key to solving the puzzle of Precambrian life was a tiny bit of fossilized fat.

When Dinosaur Look-Alikes Ruled the Earth

S04 E18 • Tuesday, Jun 9, 2020 • Jun 9 • 10m

There were a huge number of croc-like animals that flourished during the Triassic Period. Dinosaurs had just arrived on the scene but it was these animals that truly ruled the Earth, becoming both abundant and diverse.

The World Before Plate Tectonics

S04 E19 • Tuesday, Jun 16, 2020 • Jun 16 • 10m

There was a time in Earth’s history that was so stable, geologists once called it the Boring Billion. But the fact is, this period was anything but boring. In fact, it set the stage for our modern version of plate tectonics - and probably for the rise of life as we know it.

When Dinosaurs Chilled in the Arctic

S04 E20 • Wednesday, Jun 24, 2020 • Jun 24 • 10m

All told, the Arctic in the Cretaceous Period was a rough place to live, especially in winter. And yet, the fossils of many kinds of dinosaurs have been discovered there. So how were they able to survive in this harsh environment?

How the Walrus Got Its Tusks

S04 E21 • Tuesday, Jul 7, 2020 • Jul 7 • 10m

The rise and fall of ancient walruses, and how modern ones got their tusks, is a story that spans almost 20 million years. And while there are parts of the story that we’re still trying to figure out, it looks like tusks didn’t have anything to do with how or what these animals ate.

The Story of the Dino Stampede

S04 E22 • Thursday, Jul 16, 2020 • Jul 16 • 10m

To try to solve the puzzle of Lark Quarry, experts have turned to a special subfield of paleontology -- paleoichnology, or the study of trace fossils -- to reconstruct exactly what happened on that spot, on that day, nearly 100,000 millennia ago.

The Biggest Frog that Ever Lived

S04 E23 • Thursday, Jul 23, 2020 • Jul 23 • 10m

Untangling the origins of Beelzebufo -- the giant frog that lived alongside the dinosaurs -- turns out to be one of the most bedeviling problems in the history of amphibians.

The Dinosaur Who Was Buried at Sea

S04 E24 • Wednesday, Aug 5, 2020 • Aug 5 • 10m

Paleontologists have been studying these dinosaurs since the 1830s, but nobody had ever found a specimen like Borealopelta before. The key to all of this exceptional preservation was where ended up after it died and how it got there.

How We Figured Out Fermentation

S04 E25 • Thursday, Aug 13, 2020 • Aug 13 • 10m

Thanks to a recent adaptation, instead of getting sick from the boozy, fermented fruits, one of our primate ancestors could digest them safely, and get more calories at the same time. This new superpower would open up a whole new nutritional landscape for us: fermented foods.

The Oddest Couple in the Fossil Record

S04 E26 • Thursday, Aug 20, 2020 • Aug 20 • 10m

To figure out how Thrinaxodon and Broomistega became entombed together, scientists looked at the burrow itself, along with their fossilized bones. And it looks like their luck ran out, when a behavior that usually would’ve helped them survive just didn’t work.

How Ancient Art Captured Australian Megafauna

S04 E27 • Wednesday, Sep 2, 2020 • Sep 2 • 10m

Beneath layers of rock art are drawings of animals SO strange that, for a long time, some anthropologists thought they could only have been imagined. But what if these animals really had existed, after all?

The Sea Monster from the Andes

S04 E28 • Thursday, Sep 10, 2020 • Sep 10 • 10m

In 1977, a farmer was plowing his field on a plateau high in the Andes mountains when he stumbled upon a giant fossilized skeleton. How did this giant marine reptile end up high in the Andes Mountains?

When Rodents Had Horns

S04 E29 • Tuesday, Sep 15, 2020 • Sep 15 • 10m

These odd rodents belong to a genus known as Ceratogaulus, but they’re more commonly called horned gophers, because, you guessed it, they had horns. And it turns out the horns probably had a purpose - one that rodents would likely benefit from today.

The First and Last North American Primates

S04 E30 • Wednesday, Sep 30, 2020 • Sep 30 • 10m

Early primates not only lived in North America -- our primate family tree actually originated here! So what happened to those early relatives of ours?

How Plants Became Carnivores

S04 E31 • Wednesday, Oct 7, 2020 • Oct 7 • 10m

How and why does botanical carnivory keep evolving? It turns out that when any of the basic things that most plants need aren’t there, some plants can adapt in unexpected ways to make sure they thrive.

How Ankylosaurs Got Their Clubs

S04 E32 • Tuesday, Oct 13, 2020 • Oct 13 • 10m

While clubs are practically synonymous with ankylosaurs, we’ve only started to get to the bottom of how they worked and how this unusual anatomy developed in the first place.

Why Do Things Keep Evolving Into Crabs?

S04 E33 • Wednesday, Oct 28, 2020 • Oct 28 • 10m

For some reason, animals keep evolving into things that look like crabs, independently, over and over again. What is it about the crab’s form that makes it so evolutionarily successful that non-crabs are apparently jealous of it?

How Plankton Created A Bizarre Giant of the Seas

S04 E34 • Tuesday, Nov 10, 2020 • Nov 10 • 10m

At more than 2 meters long, Aegirocassis was not only the biggest radiodont ever, but it also may have been the biggest animal in the Early Ordovician. This bizarre marine giant may have only been possible, thanks to a major revolution among some of the tiniest organisms in the world.

The Rise and Fall of the Tallest Mammal to Walk the Earth

S04 E35 • Thursday, Nov 19, 2020 • Nov 19 • 10m

It arose from rhino ancestors that were a lot smaller, but Paraceratherium would take a different evolutionary path. Believe it or not, it actually became so big that it probably got close to what scientists think might be the actual upper limit for a land mammal.

How Humans Lost Their Fur

S04 E36 • Wednesday, Dec 2, 2020 • Dec 2 • 10m

We’re the only primate without a coat of thick fur. It turns out that this small change in our appearance has had huge consequences for our ability to regulate our body temperature, and ultimately, it helped shape the evolution of our entire lineage.

When Lizards Took Over the World

S04 E37 • Wednesday, Dec 9, 2020 • Dec 9 • 10m

Lizards are incredibly widespread and diverse but it took them a long time to get to where they are now. Because they used to face some pretty stiff competition from a group of lizard look-alikes.

When the Earth Suddenly Stopped Warming

S04 E38 • Thursday, Dec 17, 2020 • Dec 17 • 10m

For decades, scientists have been studying the cause of the Younger Dryas, and trying to figure out if something like it could happen again. And it turns out that what caused this event is the subject of a heated debate.

The Triassic Reptile With "Two Faces"

S04 E39 • Tuesday, Dec 22, 2020 • Dec 22 • 10m

Figuring out what this creature’s face actually looked like would take paleontologists years. But understanding this weird animal can help us shine a light on at least one way for ecosystems to bounce back from even the worst mass extinction.
