The Ancient ‘Mammals’ that Reigned Before the Dinosaurs

This video looks at a group of amazing creatures that existed before the dinosaurs like dimetrodon, gorgonopsids and dicynodonts. We often assume primitive animals lived back then but these animals where anything but, evolving certain features that all mammals possess.

    Kind of odd that we have all these books and stuff about dinosaurs interacting with other dinosaurs, but we don't really talk about their interactions with mammals and pre-mammals with the same gusto. Especially in museums, the sense is usually of mammals existing only in their own post-dino age, not that I read carefully.

    It's not really weird, dinosaurs had always fascinated us, because they were the first big creatures to be found (being more ancient, and often not in North America, permian synapsides were not found in such details than dinosaurs). And later, dinosaurs had Jurassic Park, not synapsids :p

    @@krankarvolund7771 You can't underestimate peoples fixation on big things either I found it surprising to realize how diverse both mammals/premammals and even the more terrestrial croc relatives were in the Jurassic and Cretaceous all the way up until the end Cretaceous where almost all mammals and every crocodylomorph relatives were wiped out alongside the nonavian dinosaurs. There were also far more diverse reptiles insects arachnids crustaceans bivalves plants really every major evolutionary group seems to have had far more diversity than I had ever realized based on typical depictions. Like I was quite surprised to learn that angiosperms were so dominant during the late cretaceous. Even relatives of temperate deciduous flora had largely arisen adapted to high latitudes. When you realize just how much there was in the Mesozoic it really changes your perception of the Chicxulub impact and its effect on life. Mammals after the archosaurs were actually surprisingly one of the hardest hit animal groups as a whole, placental mammals happened to fare far better than most mammal groups for some reason but that was a particularly important exception. Even the crocodilians that survived were very small species. There are entire ecological niches which haven't returned since the end of the Cretaceous, entire clades of insects numerous groups of plants and algae that vanished. The event wasn't something that just offed the dinosaurs and not mammals letting them dominate as it is often portrayed it was a literal ecological collapse with specialists getting wiped out entirely aside from those adapted to aquatic detrital environments. But images basically always show the big stuff and maybe our smaller ancestors.

The vast, vast majority of living things in the history of life on earth did not get fossilized, but the huge amount of creatures over a [relatively] vast length of time ensures that there are still plenty of fossils to help us piece together what the likely state of life on earth was during given time periods.

    at 4:45 when talking about the rise of archosaurs during the Triassic, you show a picture of Langstonia, a sebecosuchian crocodylomorph. While it certainly is an archosaur, this species in particular was actually from the Miocene, a far cry from the Triassic, and the group it belonged to would have only appeared sometime during the later Cretaceous period. Even if you count the possible representative from the Jurassic, it still would have looked nothing like the species shown and using it as an example of archosaurian radiation during the Triassic is still faulty.

    Great video P.S. It's not for thermal regulation, too many paleontologists make this mistake. Predators often break the spine of their preys with a bite. This dorsal would have the advantage to protect the spine from the bite of an animal with long jaws. The dorsal starts before the neck in order to start the protection before the neck but it stops at the tail because the tail was important but not essential. On the other hand, this dorsal had the disadvantage to be visible from a relatively far distance.

    You need to make videos of the individual timelines, like the periods and eras. For example, the mosaic era and going into each period of that era while going into the plant & animal life of those periods. You could really keep this channel going more. More frequent uploads like every week would be good

    Hi. The usage of anapsid as natural group of animals is kinda old-schooled and shouldn't be used anymore. Some "anapsids" actually evolved a pair of temporal openings similar to synapsids (e. g. some parareptiles like Millerosaurus). Also ancestors of diapsids like Hylonomus still bore an anapsid skull as do turtles, like you mentioned in your video. Whether the anapsid skull in turtles is the ancestral condition or a secondary evolution from a diapsid ancestor is the big question. Nevertheless, nice work of you covering early amniote evolution. These animals rarely get much of the spotlight.

There seems to be a growing consensus that turtles are diapsids and relatively close to archosaurs, but apart from that there is still so much going on in diapsid phylogenetics, I wouldn't be surprised if some of this stuff changes again.
