It was a multiple impact event, people! Probably. From the Early Jurassic, this 3-foot coelophysid didn’t really have much going for it, and probably is some offshoot of <em>Coelophysis </em>that made it past the extinction. This is more of an excuse to talk about that extinction, honestly. It needs more love! Again, <em>multiple </em>impact event! Again though, probably. But maybe not. </p><p><br></p><p>Want to further support the show?
