12:21 The Legacy of Lystrosaurus
As I have make my way through the History of the Earth series, I have come to realize that it can be hard to properly give all the different species that come and go as the eons pass their due coverage. So I have decided to make a mini series within the series that everyone has been asking me to return to!
In this episode, I take a look at the family of Synapsids that got their start in the Permian, and then managed to hang on through the great dying because of the hardiness of one species called Lystrosaurus!
Unfortunately, despite being the most widespread and common animal on earth in the first million years of the Triassic, Lystrosaurs sadly perished. But the story of the Dicynodonts was far from over! And in the Triassic they would not only diversify, but shape the future of the Earth!
