    Nice video. I agree with everything you said👍🏻 It's interesting to note that this episode was filmed in New Zealand, where my favorite The Lost World of 2001 would later be filmed using the same technologies as WWD. Some scenes for Time of the Titans and Giant of the Skies were also filmed here.

    Dinosaurs are actually still alive everywhere across Australia. I have photographed and seen alot of them being a park worker for years. The first dinosaur I saw near the Australian reptile park when I was 8 years old and it was tiny. Since then I've always known about them and eventually I photographed much larger ones.

    I have to be honest here. I feel that we may discover another, larger carnivorous dinosaur in the future. Wheaver it be a abelisaur or a carcarodontosaur. The fossil record shows that wherever there are large herbivores, there are large predators hunting them.

    I think that one main reason why this interesting region was warmer than might be expected despite its southerly latitudes is that it preceded (or even prevented) the formation of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current. When the ocean finally swallowed up the land and separated Australia and Antarctica as mentioned at the end of the video, this most powerful current in the world significantly contributed to global cooling - at least according to some researchers - which might seem counterintuitive because the coldest landmass was then much more isolated from the rest of the world. Fantastic video thank you!

    A lot of creatures suddenly ended 10-11k years ago and main stream science is quic to sweep it under the rug with “humans hunted them to death”, because they see what today looks like. But hunted to extinction can only go so far like bird and mammals, and even that is to a certain extent . There is a common cause for why so many different species of different animals all went extinct at the same time and it’s not humans. I believe it’s because of the younger dryas impact

    Although normally, when the vowel I occurs after a letter G, the G is pronounced [dz], in the case of Gippsland it does not. It is named after Sir George Gipps, appointed Governor of NSW in 1837. The G is pronounced in the back of the mouth like "garden".

    Australia also has 2 other ornithischians. They are Atlascopcosaurus and Qantassaurus. Atlascopcosaurus is named after a company which provided equipment for the paleontologists who discovered it, and Qantassaurus is named after an airline.

    There's no mistaking the creature for any other lizard or Komodo because it's way bigger. If you want I can show you where I took the photo of the bigger one.
