I love that channel puts the spotlight onto the more obscure prehistoric animals instead of just going over the same ones that get covered all the time. I love dinosaurs, I love all the really famous ones as well, but there are so many other amazing prehistoric animals that deserve to be discussed and have attention brought to them. The Archosaurs and their relatives are such a fascinating group of reptiles and I think it's important to understand what led to the famous ones we all know and love to really grasp just how impressive and unique the dinosaurs and the crocodilians really are.

I tried to read into it on wikipedia, but it is a huge and not at all easy to pick up field. It starts with taxonomy, and that is a huge mess, and it also has of course a very comlex language because of the nature of the matter. Let alone the often outright wrong interpretations from old science. And then that fascinating but confusing tendency to have animals that have nothing to do with each other look similar does not help much either. But that perspective alone is something, to have that relative certainty and more advanced view of the puzzle is something that people in younger times would envy us. And scientific and interesting channels are always a good find, so :D

completely agreeing here, i hope some day this channel covers fasolasuchus, i don´t see ANY CHANNELS covering fasolasuchus at all.

My favorite part about this channel are obscure animals I've never heard of. It effectively gives you limitless content to go over.

I knew it was only a matter of time before this channel covered Erythrosuchus, and just as I suspected, the video did not disappoint! Keep up the good work! 👍

Erythrosuchus looks like it should be fighting Gamera in one of his movies from the late Sixties.

I love erthyrosuchus, it just mini-maxed its damage output to get into that top predator niche :D

I actually giggled when I saw this -- it's like you're in my head, man. Mark Schulz used this or something like it in a sequence in issue twelve or thirteen of Xenozoic Tales. Gorgeous illustration, much too laborious for comics...

It's proportions make it look like a Star Wars beast/creature.

You can do a video on Dunkleosteus now that its size has been nerfed to 3-4 meters.

Found in Namibia finally some coverage of the red croc

It looks like a bad Victorian era mock up ! How did that huge head evolve ?? Bizarre creature !!

This isn't the only time Nature has tried this body plan out. She might have started practicing with the 'amphibian' tetrapods earlier, though I'm not certain about them. What does come to mind is the mammal Andrewsarchus, whose remains, as far as I know, consist only of a skull . It was clearly a meat eater, and that skull is huge. It's almost as if Nature has favourite body shapes She likes to keep in circulation, such as barrel bodied herbivores with long forelimbs, shorter hindlimbs, smallish heads on longish necks. There are others, I'm sure, but these two body shapes are the ones that are most noticeable!

Very nicely done! Love the obscue ancient animals, especially your clear love of crocodilomorphs!

Absolutely awesome content again, very much enjoying a spotlight shone on Permian and the true bulk of the Triassic. Thank you so much for putting your efforts into these videos and sharing them

Thank you. Very interesting and well done. The narrator was very effective here.

Excellent presentation! I am loving these deep dives into the "suchus" family tree especially because just a few years back I could find very little on the subject. Keep up the good work and keep the content coming! Many thanks!

I love your videos. I learn information that I ignored. Thanks for teaching me about Erythro succus, the red crocodile

Trochanter is pronounced, "troe -kanter".

I just started reading about this strange and fascinating animal and I see that they are making a new video, I remember seeing a picture of a man next to the fossil skull some time ago, I wanted to see it again but I can't find

thank you

Good movie

An episode on Archosaurus, a Permian archosauroform, would be awesome. The proto-ruling lizard underdog that lived under the shadows of the synapsids.

THAT is a massive head!!

How do we know this creature had a high metabolism? Or is this just speculation?

@chimerasuchus

Жыл бұрын

It can be determined by, among other things, their bone histology. An animal's growth rate is constrained by its metabolic rate, and Erythrosuchus and most other archosauriformes grew well beyond what ectotherms are capable of. There are other traits within their bones indicative of their high metabolisms, but their growth rate is one of the most important.

No study has been done to estimate it yet.

Natural Selection: "Okay, now I'll take that big narrow head, and give it a body to match."

I've never heard "trochanter" pronounced like that. Not saying it's wrong, but the only way I've ever heard it was TroKanter.

I am a postosuchus fan

I would probably restore Erythrosuchus with filamentous feathers. The prevalence of such covering in later archosaurs indicates that feather like structures are an ancestral feature.

I miss hearing these videos done by the original narrator.

Proto-ruling lizards! I wonder what the last libing erythrosuchids looked like.

This creature is going to be in Netflix's Life on Our Planet.

00:50 By looking at their fossils I would say that Mesozioc reptiles had rather fragile skulls with large gaps in their jaw bones. A fracture in that region would have lead to a slow, painful death.
