For about as long as people have been digging up fossils, some have tried to recreate ancient organisms through art. Paleoartists combine artistic talents with detailed knowledge of life past and present to create their best hypotheses about the appearance of ancient species and ecosystems. Their work shows in the many images, animations, and sculptures that accompany research, museum displays, books, documentaries, and more. Paleoart is an inextricable piece of paleontology, and it\\u2019s all around us!\\nIn the news: Arctic hyenas, dinosaur bone bacteria, a croc climate clock, and a big trilobite.\\nTime markers: Intro & Announcements: 00:00:00News: 00:04:30Main discussion, Part 1: 00:31:30Main discussion, Part 2: 01:08:00\\nCheck out our blog for bonus info and pictures:http://commondescentpodcast.wordpress.com/\\nThe Common Descent Store is open!
