JaackMaate’s Happy Hour · 662 - DR DEAN LOMAX - Britain’s TOP Dinosaur Expert Reveals Insane Prehistoric Secrets! (2 Hour Special) · 28 May 2026 podcast

Yeah, so I actually talk about that in The Secret Lives of Dinosaurs as well.

So I actually nickname it Pistachiosaurus.

And taco as well.

So it's called Psittacosaurus.

And weirdly enough, that ended up, at least the babies of it, ended up inside an early mammal.

So we know that an early mammal, which was about the size of a badger, was eating baby Psittacosaurus.

I like to call them like tacos as well, like Psittacosaurus.

But yeah, pretty cool.

And they're a little ceratopsian dinosaur.

So related to things like triceratops, but they live quite a bit earlier, about the size of a Labrador.

Yeah, and that's one of the things as well.

Yeah, and it's so easy to kind of think like that.

And there's so many that were tiny, like kind of like even squirrel sized and that too, yeah.

Do the tiny ones not preserve as well?

Oh yeah, great question.

Yeah, in some environments they don't.

So a lot of the excavations I've been on, typically you might find like the really big ones because you've got giant bones, there's a good chance that they will preserve really quite well.

But the small ones, often the bones are so fragile, they'll be broken apart and lost.

But depending on...

The environment like Psittacosaurus and Yikui in particular.
