Today we are very excited to have a wonderful new guest on the show! We are featuring Dr. Ellison McNutt, the head author of a new paper that provides a fresh look and analysis of the track A trace fossil footprints at Laetoli, Tanzania.
While these tracks have been known to science for over forty years, this new analysis brings something new to the table. What was thought to be Ursid (bear) tracks walking bipedally for a few steps has now proven to be something else-something far more human.
