    Ah, something Professor Ramirez hasn't heard before. Multituberculates were an extinct group of allotherian mammals that filled the niche now filled by rodents starting from Mid-Jurassic all the way to Late Eocene. Some of the more famous example like _Kamptobaatar_ and _Djadochtatherium_ were found in late Cretaceous Mongolia, while _Cimolodon_ (famously snatched by _Stenonychosaurus_ on the 'Ice World' episode of Prehistoric Planet) was from late Cretaceous USA. I'll be honest were it not for NatGeo's Gobi Expedition in early-to-mid 1990s to study the paleoecology of Djadokhta Formation and Nemegt Formation I wouldn't have known of Multituberculata mammals.

    Then you realize those native peoples are also colonizers in their own right (i.e. the Lakota aren't native to the Dakotas area, they invaded, colonized, and displaced the local populations around the late 18th century) The Bantu populations of subsaharian Africa invaded, conquered and colonized the entire area from the native Khoi-San peoples in the 15th century, who have largely gone extinct as a result (with some minor exceptions in South Africa and Namibia), and the Latins and Germans completely wiped out the Celts from Europe in the 4th century Indoeuropeans colonized Eurasia and displaced every almost local population into extinction, with some minor exceptions like the Basque Not to mention the hundreds of human-adjacent species we completely wiped off the map by invading and conquering their lands In the end, that's just humans being humans - there'll always be someone taking someone else's land, there's no one "more native" to a specific piece of land than the rest when we're all colonizers, there's no "culprit" or "victim" here, just humans being humans

    Thank you. An episode, or better yet a series, on multituberculates would be excellent. Still the most long-lasting mammal group, even though they are now almost certainly extinct. Often compared to rodents, but they were probably less gnawers and more 'tweezer teeth' - a niche that doesn't really exist today among mammals.

    Whenever I feel anxious about climate change and our environmental impact I turn to these videos to remind me how insignificant our time is in geological terms. Hundreds of millions of years from now, an intelligent species might learn how the world looked in past and study our civilization. "Did you know, there used to be many more (or fewer) continents 200 million years ago?," something like that.That's very exiting to think about, imo.

    Arthropods already were for a while and could easily become again in a (geologic) heartbeat. However having an internal skeleton is massively advantageous if you want to grow really big so something is eventually gonna end up convergently evolving a vertebrate-like skeletal structure.
