As part of the “Great Sciences” cycle, CosmoCaixa welcomes the distinguished paleontologist Steve BrusatteWhich will guide everyone on a journey spanning more than 325 million years, from the first mammals that tried to survive in the shadow of the dinosaurs to today’s humans.

As mammals, the fossils of our ancestors tell the rich story of our prehistoric heritage. Thanks to technological advances and recently discovered fossils, Brussat will provide us with new data that will help the viewer better understand the evolution of surviving mammals and discover those that have become extinct: such as micro-mammals, mammals that ate dinosaurs, and whales that walked or mystically. Mammoth.

The event will take place on October 24 at 7 p.m. There will be simultaneous translation. On this journey from past to present, we will see which species have adapted, evolved, and survived major mass extinction events to arrive at the more than 6,000 species of mammals that exist today.
