Temnospondyls were a huge group of amphibians that existed for 210 million years. And calling them ‘diverse’ would be putting it mildly. Yet in the end, two major threats would push them to extinction: the always-changing climate and the amniote egg.
Thanks to Ceri Thomas for the very cool Temnospondyl reconstructions throughout this episode. Check out more of Ceri's paleoart at / alphynix and nixillustration.com

    @@melvinshine9841 their skin is very delicate, as they need it to absorb water through their skin. Unlike these ancient ones, today's amphibians not only need water to breed, but also to stay alive as adults. They don't have scales or tough skin to keep water in. So they are restricted to water. Because of this permeable skin, salt can easily damage because of how easily it is absorbed through water. And without proper salt filtering kidneys or organs, the salt becomes toxic. That's not to say salt water amphibians might not appear again. If the right selective pressures are made available, then such amphibians might just evolve independently again given enough time.

    You are correct sir! The higher salinity of ocean water will pull water out of modern amphibians (and most freshwater fish) too quickly for them to replenish it. Mainly due to how poorly their skin tends to hold in water to begin with.

    I think that I recognize one of the pictures of Metoposaurus as a speciment form Krasiejow in Poland, the last one. I used to volunteer in excavations at that site, and I recognize the skeleton.

    thank you Blake, another great one for the collection. i'm always fascinated by those sea to land and land to sea crossover species. i like that idea of moving between two completely different worlds. and those rare inbetwweners that can exist in both in the same life. that's such a sexy concept. to be neither completely one or the other, but be everything at the same time, at home and a part of things no matter where. and you explained it really well, the whole story with reasons why in ten minutes. the pbs eons team rule!
