Adele bounces off ideas with Dr Isaac Kerr to talk about extinct kangaroos! Isaac kicks things off by telling us about trips to New Guinea, the Smithsonian, American Natural History Museum and the NHM, photographing specimens and 3D scanning. We then hop into Protemnodon, discussing three new species, fieldwork in Lake Callabonna, and why fossil hunting is like fishing crossed with Christmas.
