Episode 119 - India

Duration: 01:44:02

Description:

India is a landmass with an incredible history. Over the past half-billion years, it has spent time with the southern continents, time as an island-on-the-move, and time with the northern continents. Its fossil record is a combination of southern life, northern life, and uniquely Indian life, and its geologic history is not only the story of a traveling subcontinent, but also the origin story of one of Earth’s most impressive mountain ranges.

In the news: baby pterosaurs, vampire bats, early sponges, and snake-y ancient reptiles.
