Diictodon, the Two Weasel Tooth

(image source: https://prehistoricreatures.wordpress.com/2011/08/15/diictodon/)

Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Natasha Krech discuss Diictodon, a little gopher-like creature that, based on evidence, had burrows bigger than my current apartment. From the Late Permian, this 2-foot synapsid lived during the worst mass extinction in all of Earth’s history, proving those post-apocalyptic stories right that the best way to survive is to hide underground. Except it still went extinct then, so maybe we’re all screwed anyway.
