PBS Eons has a new episode over on Youtube. This one is about an interesting fossil of two early mammals that were entombed together for nearly 250 million years.
To figure out how Thrinaxodon and Broomistega became entombed together, scientists looked at the burrow itself, along with their fossilized bones. And it looks like their luck ran out, when a behavior that usually would’ve helped them survive just didn’t work.
