- **Event Name**: Stranger Than Strange: Madagascar's Cretaceous Mammals
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 08 Apr, 2026 at 07:00 pm (-06:00)
- **Event Description**: The island of Madagascar is home to some of the most unique plants and animals on the planet, including mammals such as lemurs and tenrecs. It appears the island was no different 67 million years ago.

Dr. David Krause, a paleontologist at the Denver Museum of Nature &amp; Science, has collected vertebrate fossils from the Late Cretaceous period on Madagascar since 1993. His discoveries include exquisitely preserved skulls and skeletons of animals ranging from frogs to dinosaurs.

In this talk, Dr. Krause will highlight the bizarre mammals that inhabited Madagascar long before lemurs and tenrecs arrived. These species—new to science—evolved remarkable adaptations that continue to puzzle researchers.
