Longisquama, the One With Long Scales

(image source: https://fossil.fandom.com/wiki/Longisquama)

Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Lawrence Mack discuss Longisquama, a mysterious creature with tall feather-like scales it presumably used to get a good radio signal so it could catch the game every Sunday. From the Early to Mid Triassic, this 1.5-foot reptile might have been a primitive archosaur, a more basal relative of lizards, or even an extremely early dinosaur. C'mon paleontologists, figure it out already! How hard could it be, really?
