Dinosaur of the day Theiophytalia, an iguanodontian that was originally thought to be from the Jurassic (due to a Bone Wars shipping mix-up), but actually lived in the Early Cretaceous in what is now Colorado.

Interview with Edward Dolnick, the author of the book, Dinosaurs at the Dinner Party, which is about how a group of Victorians discovered prehistoric animals and it changed our understanding of the world
