I really like the way the show depicted T-Rex. I've always felt that reconstructions with bright colours on theropods don't make sense, unless they're structures that only show bright colours when blood is selectively flushed through them or they're structures that can be hidden when not in use. Looking are predators throughout nature, I can't think of a single one that has bright colours unless they're lower in the food chain and trying to advertise that they're poisonous. Apex predators tend to have dull colours and patterns that allow them to blend in. Unless those displays are in a colour your prey can't see, having something bright on your body will make you very easy to spot.

The entire program is speculation, however a very good one. In other words, paleontologists work hard, and for a long time, to be able to deduce how these long-dead animals once lived. Being that modern birds and reptiles are descendants of these ancient animals, they are able to draw some comparisons in their behavior. But still, the entire 5 part series is excellent, with superb CGI recreations of the animals.

I can see why they'd make the crests on the rexes plainly colored since bright colors would make them easier to spot for their prey. That said I once saw someone suggesting that T. rex didn't even bother with sneaking and would just come up on the horizon and out-marathon its prey. If that's the case then the bright crest would make sense. Or if its prey couldn't see the colors of its crest... Or if it was a seasonal thing. All that stuff. Or, maybe it did just have a design flaw. That happens in the animal kingdom. Sometimes bright colors will be in places you do not expect.

Not sure about the marathoning. The way T-Rex is built I reckon it was not a very efficient runner, it's just too big and heavy and it doesn't have any obvious cooling mechanisms. Then again, odds might be that it specialized in hunting slow but defensive prey which couldn't really have ran away. If T-Rex had to overpower its prey rather than simply catch it, that would explainnwhy it developed to have so much bulk.

@@darthplagueis13 Yeah, that's actually why the marathoning theory is a thing. Their prey was slow, so it's possible rex didn't need to run after it or even hide its presence. To be honest though, I feel like it probably would've tried at least a little to sneak up on its prey since it's easier if it can manage to avoid a marathon at all. But, maybe not. Maybe sneak was so impossible for something so bulky that it didn't even try. I really don't know. I do think rex probably did marathon run. That's a common feature in predators in general, but especially in tall, two-legged ones. Marathoning actually makes sense for it specifically BECAUSE it was a bad runner. When you run a marathon, you can win even if you're going at a snail's pace, if there is no finishing line. As long as you retain your energy longer than your prey, you'll win. Humans have the highest known stamina in the animal kingdom for this reason, actually. Humans were designed to walk after their prey until it gets too exhausted to keep going. The part that I'm unsure about isn't the marathon running, it's just the idea that it wouldn't have bothered hiding its presence before the chase ensued. That part I'm unsure about.

@@catpoke9557 Well, my point is: T-Rex would not have been an efficient long-distance runner, either. It was too big and too heavy and needed too much energy and couldn't cool itself well. It probably didn't need to be particularily fast to catch its prey, but it couldn't afford tailing it for very long. Humans are quite effective long-distance runners since we have excellent self-cooling capabilities and are able to run using very little energy, comparatively speaking, which in a long race is going to give us an edge over a lot of herbivores whose survival strategy revolves around just hoping that predators don't pursue anything that's faster than them. Though we are not literally the best, wolves still have us beat by a long shot provided it isn't way too hot for them outside. T-Rex probably didn't need to marathon because his prey consisted of animals that were even slower than itself and that would actually try to defend themselves rather than run away. The reason T-Rex was so large, strong and heavy was likely that it specialized in dealing with prey that actually put up a fight, prey that would pretty much be safe from most carnivores because it simply was too hard to kill and too dangerous for a more lightly build dinosaur to mess with.

I always thought rex was an endurance predator. It used its stamina over speed to catch prey.

@@darthplagueis13 good points, but I was thinking maybe the rex didn’t even try to move fast. Just keep a scent on the prey and use superior leg strength and endurance to follow them.

a tangent here, but that crocodile at 8:39 is a hatchling with adult proportions and it's confusing the hell out of me

After two minutes of disclaimers, I was sort of expecting it to continue for twenty minutes, and then wrap it up with "It's fine."

I love the dino designs but the male carnivorous dinos do feel a bit dull in colouration. Like there is no vivid pop that isn't tiny on the whole animal. I would have loved it if the crests were coloured to be more distinct. Especially with how great the Carno and T-rex designs are, a little more speculation for colouration would have been wonderful

dude literally called the trex a critter

Predators usually don’t got bright crests. I like them dull.

On the subject of lips jack horners sitting in The backround with a secretly hatch chickanosaurus(whatever he wanted to call it)waiting in the dark petting slowly like good good......soon my pretty we'll prove it to them all.........😂 idk why i thought of jack horner acting like some inspector gadget villain but hey

Wouldn't it be logical that if dinosaurs to almost all that couldn't reach their eyes with their arnd they would have feathers analogous to eye lashes to protect from bugs?
