Evolution Soup

BRIANA POBINER is a Research Scientist and Museum Educator in the Human Origins Program at the Smithsonian Institution and her fields of interest include paleoanthropology and the evolution of the human diet.

MARK from Evolution Soup talks to Briana about the impact of meat-eating on human evolution and brain growth over time. We also explore how hominids obtained their meat. Were our ancestors all gung-ho hunters, or did we scavenge as well?

Primates evolved in Africa - so how did monkeys get all the way to South America? To make things even more intriguing, a fossil an extinct ancestor of modern monkeys has now been found in the New World.

ANDREW HOLMES is a paleoanthropologist & PhD candidate at the University of Toronto - studying the evolutionary history of ancient apes. He returns to Evolution Soup to talk with MARK about monkeys of the Old & New Worlds, and their astounding transatlantic journeys. (Fully illustrated interview)

LAURA VAN HOLSTEIN is a PhD Candidate at the University of Cambridge who has recently published her revolutionary research on the role of subspecies in evolution, authenticating one of Charles Darwin's theories.

Laura studied for her BA from 2013 to 2016 in Biological Anthropology. Her main fields of research include human evolution and phylogenetic comparative methods.

MARK from Evolution Soup talks with Laura about her ground-breaking work, what is meant by a 'subspecies' and how these phenotypically distinct groups can lead to new species.

We even chat about Tiger King!

SPECIAL EPISODE! In 1996 a skull and skeleton were stumbled upon near the banks of the Columbia River in Washington State. What followed were years of speculation, assumptions, legal battles and contention. The remains of the 9000-year-old Paleoamerican dubbed 'Kennewick Man' consumed the world of archaeology and Native American repatriation rights for years as both parties claimed the remains.

So who was the Kennewick Man really? Was 'the ancient one' the ancestor the Native Americans claimed that he could only be? Or was he a stranger from a far off land, upsetting centuries of oral tradition?

Archaeologist Carlton Gover has Native American heritage and is also a scientist - and looks at this fascinating case from both sides, revealing some surprising facts in a fully-illustrated interview.

J. G. M. 'Hans' Thewissen, Ph. D. Anatomy Professor at Ohio University,  studies fossil cetaceans in order to answer questions about the evolution of whales -- in particular, about how whales originated from land animals.

MARK from Evolution Soup talks to Hans about his early discoveries, fossils of proto-whales that lived partly on land, and the features we can point to in whale anatomy that display the transition from land to water over 50 million years.

Illustrated throughout with artwork from Paleoartists NOBU TAMURA and LUCAS LIMA.

Is Coronavirus evolving? Covid-19 has the world in its grip, but is it fully understood? In this special upload, JON PERRY of the Stated Clearly YouTube channel talks about viruses, how the new coronavirus evolved as well as where it could have come from.

Illustrated with clips from 'Where Do New Viruses Come From?', Jon takes us through the weird world of viruses and the current pandemic that has engendered fear ... and an internet-full of conspiracy theories!

The remarkable Thylacine (or 'TASMANIAN TIGER') was a carnivorous marsupial that existed in Australia and Tasmania up until 1936. DNA exists that could allow us to clone one - but should we?

MARK from Evolution Soup catches up with PROFESSOR ANDREW PASK from his home in Melbourne, Australia to talk about Thylacine history, biology, and how he was able to successfully sequence its genome.

Andrew Pask is the Professor of BioSciences the University of Melbourne. He has published over 100 papers on developmental genetics particularly using eutherian-marsupial comparisons. Of note, his recent work involved sequencing the genome of the extinct thylacine and was the feature article in Nature Ecology and Evolution.


02:06 Were you always interested in extinct animals?

03:31 Why did the Tasmanian Tiger go extinct?

06:57 Talk about the Thylacine & 'convergent evolution'.

09:52 FOOTAGE OF THYLACINE (Hobart Zoo, 1930s)

11:04 What do we know about the zoo specimens?

13:15 Can we clone a Thylacine?

24:24 What happens after we clone a one?

30:31 Could there still be Tasmanian Tigers out there?
