    Imagine how wrong some of our ideas must be about these animals. I mean, just take a hippo's skeleton. If you looked at it you'd imagine some monster from Star Wars, when in reality it's just a chonky water horse. Just think about how wrong a lot of our reconstructions might be without the actual soft tissue giving us a solid clue. Perhaps the Triassic creatures weren't half as weird.

    • @olliefoxx7165
      @olliefoxx7165 4 роки тому +119

      I think of that often. Bones can only show so much. The face of a moose is kinda odd but you wouldn't know it from the skull. Think of a horse and its skull, would it look different if we had no known images or living species? How about a soft shell turtle or even better an owl. The owl looks like any other raptor sans feathers but its feathers give it a unique look. The Neanderthals look like primitive cave people bc the artist think of them that way but we really dont know what they look like.

    • @shadowmax889
      @shadowmax889 4 роки тому +173

      @@olliefoxx7165 That is actually a miss representation of how the scientist reconstruct fossils. The moose would have its face, also for the horse and even hippos, guiven complete enough fossils. If the feathers of the Owl preserve, we surly could reconstruct its look to a certain degree (even its color now days).
      Now with Neanderthals it's a very different story because they are our closest relative. We even could interbreed with them, and have their complete genome, so the best face we have of past species is actually the Neanderthal. We only need our modern forensic reconstructions techniques and genomic analysis to do it

    • @MrMezmerized
      @MrMezmerized 3 роки тому +91

      I agree with shadowmax. Over the years, 'reconstruction' of muscle tissue based on fossils has evolved tremendously, also thanks to modern day scan techniques (e.g. for bone density and texture) and 3D computer drawing programs.

    • @redeye4516
      @redeye4516 3 роки тому +20

      +MrMezmerized I still think it would be hard to tell what sort of muscular or cartilaginous growths there were on some creatures. An elephant, for example. A trunk is such a weird thing, and if we didn't have living elephants then it's possible our reconstructions of mammoths and such might end up having no trunks.
      Same with us, really. Look at how many non-bony growths and weird special adaptations we have. No other animal has feet like ours, and it may be hard for another sentient species to accurately reconstruct that for a dead humanity. Look at our noses, and our ears. Hell, look at our gonads, those certainly won't survive to fossilize. On the minor end, they may misrepresent how much hair we have, too much or too little. They may only get a miraculous specimen of human hair patterns from a balding man's corpse and conclude we all looked this way since birth since male pattern balding is itself an a weird and unique phenomenon. Likewise, they may never know it existed because it wasn't preserved.
      Maybe I'm just being a skeptic but I doubt we're being portrayed as anything but earless, noseless ape monsters, presumably ones who use their long fear hands to grasp tree branches while we swoop down and haul up a fresh kill with our forelimbs unless some remnants of human culture and depictions of us and our society manage to survive that long.
      Actually, perhaps the Voyager is our best hope of being reconstructed, as it shows a man and woman, and that we come from earth. Granted they may think we were nudists, but it proves we were sentient and on the edge of spacefaring, if only they can find it out there in space.

    • @Amanda-C.
      @Amanda-C. 4 роки тому +10

      Total guess, but, with modern wild animals, we would expect one with major deformities to die very young, so an adult would be less likely to have that kind of defect. Add to that the relative rarity of gross deformities in the first place, and it's reasonable to assume, in the absence of other evidence, that a given fossil is probably typical. There's a lot of "probably" in paleontology.

    all the marine reptiles are such an amazing mystery. Id like to know more about their detailed looks. like, since they had to evolve past their cold blooded nature, did they outwardly resemble convergent fatty tissue appearance like whales and seals? or were they still scaly and looked totally new and different, like some sort of chubby thick crocodile. The idea of reptiles being big ocean predators seem terrifying, since reptiles are so bloodthirsty and non-empathetic.
