Question at 1:23:47 you mentioned an Eocene dated Alligatoroid from Germany called "Barry-fracta" (spelled according to the recorded transcript, but probably not how the actual name. The only Alligatoroid genus from Eocene Germany I could find is Hassiacosuchus, but the name sounds different.
Was Will very excited about this episode?
I suspect just a bit 😆
So excited! Thank you so much!
I work at an aquarium that has dwarf caiman as an animal educator and I can state from direct observation that dwarf caiman will death roll.

The genus is Baryphracta, considered possibly the same genus as Diplocynodon. Known from the Messel Pit!
