18. Pelagornis with Ben Francischelli
Adele banters with Ben Francischelli aka A Fool's Experiment about the lost world of Beaumaris to talk about the prehistoric Pelagornis, a giant bird with a pseudo teeth.
Plus tangents on short-faced kangaroos and other megafauna, mass death assemblages, the megalodon, and Ben's favourite, Livyatan, a macropredator sperm whale inspired by the mythical sea serpent and the misadventures of Charles Darwin in the Galapagos Islands.
