Ep. 314: Peter Larson Interview with Michael Covel on Trend Following Radio

Peter Larson
Peter Larson

My guest today is Peter Larson, an American paleontologist, fossil collector, and president of the Black Hills Institute of Geological Research, a company that excavates, prepares, and sells fossils. He led the team that excavated “Sue”, the largest and most complete specimen of Tyrannosaurus rex found to date, and has published numerous scientific and popular works on dinosaur paleontology.

The topic is paleontology.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

  • Luck’s role in finding dinosaurs
  • Larson’s personal anecdotes about finding “Sue”
  • Whether Larson knew at the time that he was finding a piece of “land” in a legal sense
  • The scientific data that Larson was able to glean before the government took the bones
  • Telling a male dinosaur from a female dinosaur
  • What makes Larson a T-Rex entrepreneur
  • T-Rex as a predator or scavenger
  • The legal case surrounding “Sue”
