SciShow Answers the Question ‘Will We Ever Run Out of Dinosaurs?’
SciShow host Michael Aranda answers the question “Will we ever run out of dinosaurs?” Aranda talks about the history of paleontology and the pace at which new dinosaur genera have been discovered, and gives a prediction for when science will hit “peak dinosaur,” the point at which there will be more discovered dinosaurs than undiscovered dinosaurs.
