EP 181 | Extinct Animal Facts with George Wakeman

In this episode of Pandora’s Box, we’re joined by George Wakeman, creator of the hugely popular Instagram page Extinct Animal Facts and upcoming author.

George takes us on a fascinating journey through deep time, exploring some of the most extraordinary prehistoric creatures ever to walk the Earth — from trilobites with crystal eyes to armoured dinosaurs, saber-toothed predators, and the legendary megalodon.

We also discuss why extinct animals capture our imagination, the mysteries still hidden in the fossil record, and George’s mission to make palaeontology accessible and exciting for everyone.Broadcast live on Aspen Waite Radio every Monday at 9pm.
