Creature Comforts

On Creature Comforts, Kevin Farrell is joined by Dr. Troy Majure, veterinarian at the Animal Medical Center in Jackson and Libby Hartfield retired director of the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science.Before the lines of our state borders were drawn, many animals walked throughout the area that we now call Mississippi. Prehistoric birds, mammals, and reptiles charted their course throughout the state, and thanks to paleontologists like our guest today, we can peer back through time and guess what these animals might have been like. James Starnes from the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality is our guest for the hour.To submit your own question for the show, email us at animals@mpbonline.org or send us a message with the Talk To Us feature in the MPB Public Media App. Hosted on Acast.
