not hard to check btw : Arthropods (huge family) include insects(subgenre) as well as non-insects such as spiders, millipedes, centipedes, ticks, mites and crayfish. “Insect” is the subdivision of Arthropods which includes creatures with the following characteristics: Three main body parts: head, thorax and abdomen. Antennae on the head. Mollusca instead is another huge family genre that can go from slugs to squids.

1:58 terrifying mistake here. Meganeura feeding of squirrels? This dragonfly existed during the Carboniferous period, about 300 million years ago. The first mammals would not appear until early Jurassic period, 100 million years after Meganeura was gone. And for sure, those mammals were not even simmilar to squirrels.

It does not say small insect and anything else that reminds us of insects. Crustaceans, aracnids, gastrpods, isopods and other arthropods may remind you of insects however scientifically they are not. So hearing someone try to sound smart calling slugs bugs then reason that for scientific reasons its valid when i go and look up the scientific definition of the word bug being related to insects, i already knew that because bugs are insects. Not slugs. Lol did you even do research on anything or is this all just how you feel?

+The Revolution Will Be Twisted Comparing apples with oranges, aren't you? I can give you a shocking example for a lifeform that wasn't around until after the Cretaceous period: Grass. The most common plant in the world today, abscent from the fossil record for the entire Mesozoic era and before. No dinosaur ever saw a single blade of it. How come? Because grass evolved in a relatively quick adaptation to the KT event. Sunlight was sparse at that time, so large, slow growing plants that need a lot of it were at a disadvantage. But there were apparently plants that didn't need to grow much before being able to spread. Energy efficiency was key to not only survive, but thrive in this 100-200 years long ice age. Helped by its fast reproduction cycle, natural selection opimized these traits that ensured survival, and this small plant ended up becomming one of the most sucessful. "But why are small grasses still around today, if they were adapted to a cold and dark world" you ask? Because natural selection isn't about 'why', it's about 'why not'! Everything can survive given an opportunity, and fortunately nature is not controlled by an intelligent breeder that judges certain lifeforms unworthy of existing. Nature is a self-regulating system. It needs no judgement to be functional. So, is there anything in the world today that poses an extinction-level threat to grass? Absolutely not! Grass may be at the bottom of the food chain, but it survives by outreproducing all the creatures that eat it, and its seeds can survive frost, drouts, floods and fires underground, until its safe to grow again. And by the time the next threat hits, the next generation is already sown. As for monkey; evolution doesn't mean an entire species changes or that the successors completely replace the ancestors. Nature doesn't just throw entire species away once a "superior" one evolves from it. That is a common misinterpretation of survival of the fittest. It doesn't mean "the strong wipe out the weak", it means "those who match requirements may live". It's about fitting the bill, not physical fitness. And what does fit the bill and what doesn't depends on the entire ecosystem around the lifeform in question. So again, are humans an extinction-level threat to all other primates? Not by natural means, no. Humans don't occupy the same ecological niche as chimpanzees, gibbons or gorillas, so we don't stand in competition to them. But you know what did once occupy the same niche? Australopithecus, Homo habilis, Homo erectus and Homo sapiens neandertalensis - all of which went extinct, because we modern humans are fiercely competitive if nothing else. As for the different races of Homo sapiens sapiens; fist, I hope you don't really believe they all evolved _directly_ from an aquatic ancestor (especially frogs). This entire explanation would have been a waste of time if that was the case. Secondly, that one Eve you're thinking of was a proto-hominid somewhere in Africa. But she didn't give birth directly to Homo sapiens sapiens. No multicelular organism could mutate that fast. Also, genetics prove that the North American natives descended from East-Asians. And guess what, some of them survive at the north pole today, using stone age level technology. Their ancestors didn't just cross the Bering Straight in a big expedition trying to reach North America, they were gradually settling right on the frozen Straight!

So much of the information here is incorrect, he's mostly just reading random articles and wikis in no particular order and occasionally adding his opinions (which are incorrect such as the point about the dragonfly eating squirrels as they didn't even exist during that time period) also there's no 'n' in the word Arthropods and Nautilus' aren't blind as you stated they were

I think the guy meant they were the size of squirrels, not actual squirrels

Our fossil record really makes me hope they find life containing planets in my lifetime if things like this existed here they could conceivably be much larger somewhere else

All those things presented here reminds me of the certain enemy creatures that I had seen in Metroid Prime for the Gamecube.

It's amazing how such powerful creatures existed back then and managed to survive for at least 300 million years, meanwhile us puny humans emerge and have only been around for several thousand years yet we manage to grow more powerful than any of them due to our intellect and our engineering of weapons.

"Anthropod." Arthropod*

I wonder if the Dragonfly still exists. I saw one jammed in mom's car's hood the other day that was twice as big as any I'd ever seen before and I see hundreds DAILY on my property alone. It was gigantic.

The periods of the Paleozoic era are, in order, Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Carboniferous (Mississippian and Pennsylvanian), and Permian.

What is so terrifying about a Trilobite? Giant shrimp wasn't anything worse than what we have nowadays... You said terrifying, a Snail is not terrifying... Maybe gross for those don't like slimy things. How is a clam terrifying? It's just big... Plus, this was almost all sea creatures, not much for bugs or insects. Less than half could been said to be terrifying.

Giant shrimp is a paradox and a paradox is a word that describes two doctors.

Prehistoric insects be like: Giant (insert bug here)

ok the title says largest prehistoric bugs and insects but snails, and other creatures like the cameroceras at 4:48 are not insects or bugs

You don't read the intro before clicking a video. You see the thumbnail and read the title. Not half of these are insects. That's just misleading.

Abi Montalvo crustaceans are closely related to insects

I've seen a hybrid of fish and shrimps. Pikaias were half-arthropods and half-vertebrates.

Thanks for tonight's nightmares :)
