Episode 597 Arctic Climate and Megafauna

In the Paleocene epoch giant animals roamed the earth. Kate Lyons and Alessandro Mereghetti are scholars studying the extermination of those creatures. Some people believe that a way to protect our climate may be to repopulate our arctic with wooly mammoths and other animals. We discuss this.

Please wait a few seconds for the comments to load at the bottom of this page. Then read the ideas other people have shared and reply or add your own knowledge. The space for comments is in a pale font. It’s good to give your comment a title by selecting it and clicking the “B” (for “boldface”). And you can italicize passages with the “I”, indent, add hyperlinks (with the chain symbol) or even attach a photo or graphic from your hard drive by clicking the paperclip at the right side of the space. Have fun with it!
