Hello and welcome to I Know Dino.

0:41.7

I'm Garrett.

0:42.4

And I'm Sabrina.

0:49.4

And today in our 332 episode, we have a bunch of news, including a new hadrosaur.

0:55.0

And I think I saw you have quite a list of new events and things going on. Yeah, there's a lot of stuff happening in dinosaur world.

0:58.6

There's a lot building up, I guess.

1:00.6

We also have Dinosaur of the Day, micro-Pachycephalosaurus,

1:04.9

which now looking at it is definitely one of the longer dinosaur names that I've seen.

1:09.4

Might be the longest one.

1:11.1

It's quite a string there.

1:13.1

And I only say, might be, it probably is, but I can't off the top of my head list all the dinosaur names.

1:44.3

It was originally just going to be one way. And then when I started looking into it, I kept finding more and more ways that you can de-extinct a species. Oh. So I just had to go through the whole thing because it's such an interesting topic. You're going to write it as a BuzzFeed article? Maybe. I don't know how that works. but if I guess, if I can, maybe it'll just be an I know-dino. dot com article. But anyway, before we get into all of that, we want to thank some of our patrons as always, because they are the driving force behind I know-dino, the people that keep our bits streaming and all of that good stuff. So this week we'd like to thank Cameron, Richard, Wyatt, Daniel McGill, Ranger Chris from Dino for Hire, Gabe, Greg, Verasiraptor, John Heck, and Vikram and Karthik.
