Disclaimer: This is my very first episode and I'm still getting the hang of things! Stick with me, I promise to make it worth your time!
Dinosaurs, you know them and love them. These terrible lizards ruled the planet before our founding fathers were even a twinkle in their mother’s eye. In theaters, local museums, and auction houses their fossils attract stampedes of admirers. However, due to fossil hunters, global warming, and lax fossil excavation laws, dinosaurs may be heading for their second mass extinction. Is there still a chance for justice for these Jurassic giants? This is Codified Curiosities.
The law can be, at its best, fascinating, and, at its worst, it legalizes war crimes. At the very least, it's a curious component to our society. Join me every Wednesday to explore bizarre, abhorrent, and sometimes whimsical areas of the US legal system. From Dinosaur Bones to Guantanamo, this is Codified Curiosities. Have an idea for a topic?
