I enjoyed some of the shows provided by PBS. NOVA was one of my old favorites. Their nature shows were on every Sunday afternoon and evening. I wish they had stuck with the nature shows, kid shows, educational shows, cooking shows, and the like. They should have never roamed into politics. Regardless of which side they sided with, it was doomed from that point on.Leave it to PBS to promote evolution. No wonder we need to defund it. Sorry, I couldn't stop my sarcasm.
I love PBS and also the program NOVA which recently had an episode similar to this about how the Cretaceous (K) and Paleogene (Pg) extinction event made room for mammals.
Rise of the Mammals
Amazing fossils reveal how mammals took over after an asteroid wiped out the dinosaurs.www.pbs.org
The K-Pg asteroid impact that led to the extinction of the dinosaurs occurred at the Chicxulub crater, located on the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico. Specifically, the center of the crater is offshore near the community of Chicxulub. This impact is widely accepted as the cause of the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event.

I have this theory. Between 6000 - 6500 years ago, The Word (Yeshua Hamashicach) Spoke everything into existence. Just over 4000 years ago Yahweh flooded the earth saving 2 of every KIND of animal (Not every single breed or species of that kind), as well as Noah, his 3 sons and there wives. There i proven adaptation to environmental inputs of a short periods. THERE IS ZERO PROOF of evolution.
This is getting to a purely political topic, but using a taxpayer's money to fund a group opposed to his interests is like the old European situation where state-sponsored churches used government money at the expense of other denominations. If public broadcasting's true believers are willing to fund it, so be. That's the usually way of things. Public broadcasting can air what it pleases, but not on my dime.
There's also the issue of the 1 million years of volcanic activity on the other side of the world during this time.Leave it to PBS to promote evolution. No wonder we need to defund it. Sorry, I couldn't stop my sarcasm.

Doesn't that include bananas? I remember reading that somewhere...
Yep. Today's Cavendish banana is very different than wild bananas.
It's possible that the Deccan Traps you cited were triggered by the Chicxulub event.
Indeed the yellow seedless banana known today are hybrids. The wild banana looks nothing like the yellow banana. Humans through selective breeding have altered the original variety. Along with many fruits and vegetables us humans eat.
The main phase is about 50,000 years too early with high confidence in the dating. And it's not as close to the antipodes as other impact/volcano hypotheses. Reunion hotspot is more likely.
