There were no witnesses, no one left alive to drop hints. Paleontology is a science where the trail has long been cold and the evidence buried. Did dinosaurs care for their young? Were they warm-blooded? Were they more like birds or more like lizards? Paleontology is a contentious science that some say can never be proven, yet scientists and lay people alike are drawn to pick through dirt and rocks to uncover clues. Producer Loretta Williams digs into the debate over the lives of dinosaurs.
Bitten by the Bone Bug was produced by Loretta Williams with
field recordings and studio engineering by Robin Wise. It
was funded in part by the National Science Foundation.
