A note about the teeth, and a comparison to peccaries. This animal is also called a javelina. The javelina uses the canine tusks not only to dig roots; they are also used for protecting themselves and their progeny, and also the males fight each other during rutting season. So this Dino may have used those tusks for protection and for fighting as well.
@hollylogue494 true. Water deer, musk deer, and Muntjack have tusks. However, on javelina both the top and bottom canines are sharp. (Plus, the narrator mentioned javelina/peccaries specifically)
Your dry sense of humour always makes these videos a treat. Anything can be an interesting subject if its taught well, and that also goes the opposite way. Theres nothing better than an interesting topic delivered in an interesting way, and you always manage that, good job!
Yes, it had to be that! Meanig, enzymes are catalyst, some of which might provide that amount of oxidation, meaning turning fuel (food or fat reserves) into energy, which those extremely athletic cold water animals like salmon then have available for going up stream against fast water - being thus cold in early spring that it sometimes still would start to freeze if it weren't for all that steaming movement.
@@Alberad08 How do the specific enzymatic adaptations in cold-water animals like salmon contribute to their ability to perform intense physical activities?
Hey! Waddayaknow? I got my question picked! Thanks for the correction Dino-Gen. Ectothermic. Got it. I think I follow your careful reply, but it still leaves me wondering why, if it's possible for ectothermic animals to be very active in 'cold' conditions, (as fish can be), why it is never found in land-based ectotherms. Just the luck of the mutation draw? Going to watch again to see what I missed. 😉
I think its the "Water" part that's the biggest deal. Water resists -changes- in temperature way better than air, so it might be easier for an animal to evolve something in the more stable (not necessarily optimal) environment that one that changes all the time. Prolly wrong tho.
1) I was the one who requested a Michael Caine and I have yet to hear it. What gives? 2) Why don't scientists give dinosaurs common names? Why do we always refer to dinosaurs by their binomial nomenclature (correct usage?). Nobody goes around calling them Panthera Leo or Cyanocitta cristata. So why not something like the Two-fingered Bitey, or Horned Chonker?
We do have a few common names for extinct animals, but they're mostly scientific names that became popular before the animal got reclassified. Or a translation of the Latin name, like Urvogel.
Just want to make a correction here. You say that Latin lovers would have figured out that heterodontosaur means different toothed reptile. That's Greek though, not latin. Heteros (other) and odous (tooth).
I dont understand how these tiny buggers died off but monitor lizards, birds etc and such didn't. Especially ones like this that were allready accustomed to dead environments. What am i missing here
Fish have several different proteins that enable body processes to function at low temperatures like 35⁰f. Its also why they rot faster in the fridge than red meat, you're keeping it at elevated temperatures in there. That's why fish is iced. The vid on why fish goes bad faster explains it, I'm just paraphrasing.
Well at least he doesnt' look like Benji the dog Thomas ("Benji is a 2018 American adventure drama film written and directed by Brandon Camp, and produced by Blumhouse Productions. The film is a reboot of the 1974 film of the same title, which was directed by Camp's father Joe.")
@@pedrogabrielduarte4544 the rosy cheeked Brit? Unless you think all white boys look alike, which my Asian partner believes (she thinks they're all cute), they don't look anything alike! Bonus trivia: Dilophosaurus is my new favorite dino, I got a scale model on my desk as I type this.
Animals are neither “ugly” nor “beautiful;” they reflect their survival strategies and adaptations with their appearance. Your video is annoyingly anti-intellectual.
Finding things ugly or cute is an evolutionary survival strategy for humans. We find certain features adorable and it triggers a nurture and protect response. Conversely, finding something ugly is a response to potential danger. Those are healthy and normal responses. Having said that, I think Dino Gen is just being humorous. Humour and science are not mutually exclusive.
The cold-blooded/warm-blooded explanation at the end was super fascinating! Thank you for taking the time to explain that!

@@loraweems8712 They also remind me of Chinese Water Deer tusks.

Was going to remark on enzyme optimal temperature ranges, but you covered that near the end of the answer to that question.

@@AncientWildTV Just think of enzymes as catalists.
What a cutie!
With those oddish teeth, messy fuzz, wide gape and rather odd looking left nostril.
The dinosaur is nice too ....
i've been playing ASA lately and This Little Bastard will NOT stop stealing my cooked meats and forcing me to make more >:UUUU rude pegos
Oh, what an ugdorable lil monster 😅 I want to snuggle it 😊

god damn that is a chupacabra if I ever seen one hahahah. JUST KIDDING XDDDD
😀 Chupacabras 😀
Sir........where is the video about hadrosaurs. I want it on my desk by monday
Hahahahaaa the annoying little bastard, I remember these all stealing my stuff in Ark 😂😂
I gotta say though I don’t think their ugly, their beautiful in their own annoying way 😂❤

As always I thoroughly enjoyed your video, Thanks for the great content.💪🏻🙏🏻✨
Kind of like a zombified parrot. 😊
LOL!!!

Make a video whit beautiful dinossaurs!:
There were no one? Thank you for the usefull information!

Anyone else thinking chupacabra?
Yeah, another person mentioned the creature here. 🙂
Ah yes, the mammal dinosaur
The paleo art in the thumbnail made me think it was an ancient hominid for a second LOL
😀
Looks like a big rat, Ratasaurus
You offend me! Pegos are cute!

How dare you. Heterodontosaurus is my favourite dino. Ugly? How can you say that?
🙂
As soon as I saw this face only a mother can love, I got really happy to see a heterodontosaurid being covered. I love those ugly dinos.
This is so mean to the dinosaur. He could go home and kill himself 😢
You're too late. Mother Nature already did it. 😀
Don't be rude. Their mothers love them.
How'd you know? 😀
Surely the ultimate efficiency would be an animal that could use thermoregulation as required on a daily basis.
High speed hibernation.
Megaraptor please 🙏 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Megaturboraptor 😀
It could have been super intelligent
"Beautiful-on-the-inside Dinosaur" 😀 😀
Me when my straight friend does something stupid:
Ah, the heteroDON'T
😀 😀
You look very Similar to ben g thomas
