Beyond Bones

A museum is only as special as the treasures it watches over. For the Houston Museum of Natural Science, that’s more than 2.5 million objects. Each of these amazing items -- from hulking dinosaur mummies to delicate butterfly wings and intricately carved seashells -- has a story. Join curators and experts as they share where these objects came from and what happens once they get to HMNS.   Got an object you’d like to learn more about? How about a science question you’ve been dying to ask? Let us know at podcasts@hmns.org.

    What can modern animals teach us about extinct dinosaurs?

I sit down with our Paleontology Lab Manager, Collin Diggins (and special guest) to discuss just that!

So, how exactly do they arrive at such seemingly difficult...dare I say "unbelievable"...estimates? Email: Podcasts@hmns.org https://www.hmns.org/podcast/
