Triassic Period: Reptiles Rule. Video from the Discovery Channel.

I assume this is supposed to be the southwest U.S. during the Late Triassic, but there is a hodge-podge of animals from different ages. Still pretty cool though; however, I wish the aetosaur and photosaur were on the scene a little longer, and where is the ubiquitous Postosuchus?

New Triassic Animal Video Clips (Museum in a Minute) from the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science

The New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science has released a bunch of short, one minute video clips on a variety of fossil animals. I've linked a few of the Triassic-themed ones below. I think this is a great idea.

Revueltosaurus

Coelophysis

What is a Metoposaur?

Ned Colbert, Lystrosaurus, and Continental Drift

Arguably one of the most important finds in the history of Triassic paleontology was the discovery of fossil bones assignable to Lystrosaurus from the Early Triassic of Antarctica in 1969 by a team including famed paleontologist Edwin "Ned" Colbert. The finding of this non-marine animal on four different continents helped support the theory of continental drift.

Below is some old footage (from the 1970s I believe) taken in his office at the Museum of Northern Arizona of Ned discussing this find and its importance. You can feel his excitement in reliving his initial finds, especially when he starts picking up the various fossils. Enjoy!
