The Triassic was full of creatures that look a lot like other, more modern species, even though they're not closely related at all. The reason for this has to do with how evolution works and with the timing of the Triassic itself: when...

At the beginning of the Triassic Period, with the continents locked together from pole-to-pole in the supercontinent of Pangea, the world is hot, flat, and very, very dry. But then 234 million years ago, the climate suddenly changed for...
