Show Notes

The Hill Country of central Texas is rich in fossils from the age of dinosaurs to the Ice Ages, and these fossils have been especially valuable in reconstructing behavior in long-extinct animals. Why is this, and what tools are available to paleontologists to reconstruct long-dead animals as living, breathing organisms? Find out as we travel to Austin and the Hill Country on our Voyage Deep Into the Heart of Fossils!
