Happy Thursday BIRDSday! We're currently chatting about how natural selection drives evolution, how paleontologists reconstruct extinct organisms, and then we'll be getting into the dinosaurian evolution of birds.

It's a #MarshMadness upset today!

In our East Coast matchup between Dryptosaurus and Priconodon, the obscure (and possibly supergigantic) ankylosaur has prevailed. Next week: Priconodon vs. Torosaurus!

We're LIVE with paleontological discussion and good vibes! On today's agenda: Why is fossil science important? How (and why) does somebody become a paleontologist? And maybe we'll even get to talk about PENGUINS for #PenguinAwarenessDay if we have time.
