I can't speak for other Spinosaurus fans however, I can speak for myself and I can say that Spinosaurus interests me so much because of the mystery. Yes, when I was younger I wanted Spinosaurus to be this superior predatory monster that destroyed all in its path however, as an adult I now find Spinosaurus fascinating for its distinct features and ecological niche. Even if Spinosaurus turned out to be nothing more than an oversized sailed crocodilian, it interests me that it is seemingly the ONLY species in the class of Theropod to adapt fully to a semi-aquatic lifestyle, no other Theropod or any other Dinosaur for that matter can say the same. Sure, Spinosaurus' predecessors like Suchomimus and Baryonyx were adapted to catch fish but by no means were decent swimmers. What interests me even more about the creature is not what Spinosaurus is but rather, what it could have become. When you look at a group of animals such as the Mosasaurus and realize that they hail from land based reptiles, it really makes me wonder what Spinosaurus could have evolved into had the destruction of its habitat by rising ocean levels not been as fast as they had been. Considering Spinosaurus' already impressive size, being bigger than Tyrannosaurus Rex of all creatures in height and length, imagine what a leviathan Spinosaurus could have been when given the freedom of the open ocean. Perhaps it would have evolved to out compete Mosasaurus or Plesiosaurus but even better, perhaps Spinosaurus would've been able to dominate multiple niches in the prehistoric oceans. Even if Spinosaurus turned out to be a trunked blubbery seal or a semi-aquatic Dinosaur, Spinosaurus is the poster creature for the advancements we've made in the paleontological field. If you ask me, Spinosaurus is just as important to paleontology as Megalosaurus, the very first dinosaur found and documented. Watching Spinosaurus change so drastically over the years to where I myself can witness it further cements my love for the field and the species.

@@PedroRPFerraz At the end of the day, life is going to evolve for one thing and one thing only, survival. Though survival and combat can often come hand in hand, life seemingly prefers to take the path of least resistance and what is more least resisting than a giant murder croc with functioning arms? Spinosaurus was probably as large as it is in response to living with other massive predators. It probably used its size to intimidate those same predators. Really when you think about it that's the biggest flex of any carnivorous animal, why win battles when you can just be so damn scary no one wants to fight you? I personally believe that Spinosaurus was a specialist, sinking most of its time and resources into catching fish but I also think it played a role Tyrannosaurus Rex itself plays, the role of bully. I believe Spinosaurus used its size in order to bully other carnivorous Dinosaurs from their kills when the opportunity presented itself, why else would there be signs of conflict from these large predators in the fossil record if that was not the case? Other large carnivores didn't feed on fish as it did and they most likely didn't view Spinosaurus as prey so the only other option is being faced with competition. So at the very least, we Spinosaurus fans can take solace in the battle department using this argument. Spinosaurus was literally so large and scary that it encouraged other predators not to mess with it unless it was stealing their food and even then they wouldn't want to most of the time.

I don’t know if there would be evidence to back this up, but that is one possibility, and would also make sense considering the positioning of the nostrils is more like that of wading birds. Also keep in mind that we really don’t have a complete skeleton, and we don’t know what the sail was covered with. The exact type of flesh covering would likely change the math somewhat.

How people are allowed to privately own specimens of ancient beings is beyond me. It should all be handed over for public study.

This is fascinating. Thanks so much for the informative rundown! You did a really good job consolidating all the info into a concise yet entertaining package.

I am no paleonthologist, nor am I a biologist. Yet long before watching this video, having watched other videos and read articles about Spinosaurus, I had learned how different findings and new researches concerning it have led into very different, drastically changing theories about what Spinosaurus looked like: How long was it? Was it bipedal or quadrupedal? Was it semi aquatic or fully aquatic? What shape of tail did it have? Just during the 21 century alone, all these things have been changing in its depictions, without there being a consensus in the scientific community. Eventually, all this conflicting information made me come to the conclusion that maybe Spinosaurus was not, in fact, a single species, as it has been portrayed, but several species of the same genus. This video has made me even more certain of my theory. It was a joy to watch.

13:48 Is that Spore music? Man the nostalgia.

So basically, we know next to jack about these animals and their features and even entire species are mostly fanfic. Cool. Amazing video by the way! I’m excited to see in our lifetime what huge revelations are made by future scientists. Just think about when people thought T-Rex used to walk like humans and drag their tails, or the infamous stegosaurus brain being in its tail haha. Imagine what we will know about these animals over the coming decades or centuries.

So far their isn’t much that we have found to have a bigger of the swamp queen, in opinion either it’s behavior(how it hunted) was either like a crocodile 🐊 (swimming) or like a stork (waiting), But what do you think?

@@thelittleal1212 Not likely to summarize that is the part where most people couldnt understand or doesnt want to ralize about multiple predators and carnivores coexisting within same habitat these predatoes *have* to Compete they were quite likely to attack eachother the best examples would be our modern habitats for examples we see modern savannas with lions wild dogs crocodiles phytons leopards and cheetahs as well as the south america where we see several species of caimans from smaller green caiman to largestbblack caiman to the massive orinoco crocodile to Anacondas Giant Harpy Eagles as well as Jaguars alas the Colossal Aquatic Predatory fish species all compete with eachother I could write even eurasian taiga northern forests where tigers bears wolves as well as smaller species like wolverine esque species smaller felines fight for survival whereas everyone knows about north american habitats What I am trying to say is peaceful docile coexistence is a myth that somehow perpetuated by a bandwagon it is inaccurate the so called niche partitioning definetly isnt the case for modern habitats alas we well know because of fossil evidence that the Spinosaurids arent restricted or obliged to fish there was a private collection fossil that even showed Spinosaurus bitemarks on a charcarodontosaurus skull as well as teeth embedded within

You’re videos are so cool

Really fascinating video

My favorite type of video!

This ONE dinosaur is a perfect microcosm of paleo-sciences. Everything we learn only teaches us enough to ask better questions and give up on previously held assumptions. Frustrating as hell, but we constantly get more info and that is always fun.

Me goes downstairs to buy some milk, *Spinosaurus gets a new feature*

"this isn't even my final form!"

I like the idea of Oxalaia quilombensis being a true species or at least a subspecies because it's first name is based on an african-brazilian religion deity and the second is based on where it was found, a quilombo, communities founded by ex slaves, it was one of the ways to resist colonization and slavery, if it was proven that the species is just a Spinosaurus aegyptiacus, the whole homage wouldn't be it's official name

Spinosarus is my favorite dinosaur predator i hope one day they find whether privately and we hope that person donates it or it is bought by someone benevolent and donated or on a local museum expedition, a semi perfect of perfectly fossilized spinosaurus that can put to bed most of issues of reconstructing and kick out what shouldn't belong, but one can dream i still find it hard to believe spinosaurus is like the dinosaur crocodile even if it was able to swim well, it would be just as capable on land i find hard to believe the posture they put it in when walking the legs look too short to me, and why would it have the enormous hand claws if it was eating fish as its main meal, all it needs is a robust long skull as those fish at that time were huge can't have a flimsy ghariel skull and claws matching have to make sense and the body looks too long imo but one day i maybe right i maybe completely wrong just need that semi perfect or perfect fossil.

I have some doubts and suspicions about the 2014 design, especially with the back legs being too short for the dinosaur. For all we know they could be the back legs of another theropod dinosaur. And now this weird tail paddle added for the 2020, it might be from a mosasaur or a giant newt/salamander. Though I don’t mind the design of the spines of spinosaurus, since that design could help spinosaurus out while fishing for fish.

As these specimens were found in relatively the same place, I wouldn't bet that these aren't Spinosaurus. And I doubt a mosasaur would have found it's way into the narrow flatbeds and deltas that is the Kem-Kem Beds.

Never understood why anyone would see this dilophosauroid headed awkward animal into a super preditor status when it's skeleton looked like it ambled and wobbled along on dry land.

Imagine it moved like a turtle instead of a conventional dinosaur. Pulling itself forwards.

Heard part of the soundtrack of one of the MechAssault games used in the video, but wasn't noted in the description's music section. Unless I'm blind or something. During the Cervicals part. Part of the soundtrack to MechAssault 2 Lone Wolf. The track "Gladiator", I believe.

AGAIN????? Deym this dinosaur doesnt know when to stop.

13:09 Omfg the music in the cervical section reactivated the traumatizing Animal Planet cgi green guy in my brain lmao

i wonder if the huge sail can be used to keep the animal warm whilst its swimming? were they definitely hot blooded? i think dimetrodon was supposed to be cold blooded but had a sail (maybe they didnt swim much in deep ocean but lived in swampy areas.. so would kinda swim and walk also on the bottom of shallow seas/lakes/swamps.... therefore combining walking and semi swimming whilst having the sail mostly above water for temperature regulation?

Or maybe it's just an elaborate display structure. Birds today have some crazy and bizarre display structures.

Maybe the real spinosaurus was the friends we made along the way

Ok, I understand there may have existed different types of huge spinosauruses at the same time. However could you make another video by explaining and clarifying your view points on it For example what were some of those differences subspecies of Spinos that coexisted together?

You used music from Spore in this video! I love you!!!!!!

8:54 Buzz off planet dinosaur for showing Spino scared of Crocs 😂

Spinosaurus is definitely one of my favorites. Although not necessarily accurate I love seeing them wandering around the coasts lines in Ark.

Can you make next a video about bahariasaurus ?

Sigilmassasaurus is a straight-up Wastebasket Taxon at this point.

I think it moved it's head like a bird, and looked a bit derpy like birds too when facing front, and it had slick hydrophobic(?) feathers or dinofuzz. Let's see if this turns out to be true in the future

The real Spinosaurus is the bones we found along the way!

I believe that Spinosaurus individuals have individual spines to identify different individuals or to show maturity among the species I Donno it's just a theory 🤷

I don't care how much you think you know, I fail to see how you can declare anything with a few scraps of bone. One fragment here and there does not mean you can say what species, what size and shape the other 99% of the bones look like.

@@Deform-2024 you compare it to other bones of similar species of the same era whose skills more complete. If you was to compare the remains of 3 fragments of modern lions in a million years time, you'd be stomped what it looked like. But if you had a tiger, leopard, etc you'd be able to guess. Obviously you would not compare it to that of a hippo skull or anteater, but you get the drift. As you get more specimens, you toss out the old depictions for a more precise depiction. To be honest, a lion and leopard are close enough that 99% of a guess would be close to what a lion looked like. The only issue you'd have is not guessing things like s mane . This is the features you'd never guess and why there's a debate on dinosaurs with feathers right now.

spinosaurus is one of those games that constantly update

(Sigh) this back and fourth is kind of a nothing burger until multiple articulated skeletons can be found, which is impossible.

There needs to be a spino update every month
