Paleoenvironmental Reconstruction - What is it and What Does it Do? - Animals 56

This episode brings together episodes 53 to 55 as the unexpected finale of a 'secret miniseries' on how zooarchaeology can be used to reconstruct palaeoenvironments in conjunction with other archaeological subdisciplines. But how can the presence or absence of a given toad species infer on past environments? Tune in to find out! Case studies feature the humble European pond turtle/terrapin/tortoise and the palaeoenvironmental reconstruction of an Upper Pleistocene hyena den in Bois Roche, France.
