Ben Garrod

Join Ben Garrod, a Professor of Evolutionary Biology, and Tori Herridge, a Senior Lecturer in the field, as they tackle the sizing conundrums faced by colossal creatures. They reveal why scaling up a mouse could lead to disaster and how giant bones require air pockets to support their weight. The duo humorously discusses the digestive strategies of massive herbivores and the peculiar timing of animal bladders. Delve into their imaginative musings on how a rerun of evolution might reshape our understanding of the animal kingdom's giants.
