A newly published monograph on Eotyrannus gives us the best look at the dawn tyrant yet! How was it similar to later tyrannosaurs, how was it different, and what does it tell us about a poorly understood group of dinosaurs? Lots of questions are answered by the paper, but more remains to be found out.

Therapods are so fascinating everything from humming birds to Tyrannosaurus Rex, love it!!!
That artwork is top notch. Whoever did that is onto something with the way those arms and claws look. Truly frightening.

Thank you for the excellent paleontology content!
You're Welcome!
Fascinating and transparently comprehensible, thank you.
You're welcome!
@@RaptorChatter “12 meters” wrong Tyrannosaurus rex length 12-13 meters long.
@@RaptorChatter Tyrannosaurus rex is the biggest theropod.
So clear. Not to quick, or too slow
Thanks for these videos .
You're welcome, I love hearing that we're doing about the right information on these.
I’d love to see some coverage of sinotyrannus. Its such a large member of a usually primitive and often small family of dinosaurs. Or lythronax just cause it’s name is cool. Great stuff keep it up.
Excellent content
Tyrannosauroid family: Big head or big arm, there are no in-between.
Basically. Especially in the later ones, which is part of what makes the Megaraptorans so interesting to me.
Tyrannosaurus rex arms are shorter but much stronger than human arms!!!
amazing!
So informative !!
Glad you think so!
I love Eotyrannus and hopw to draw it after watching this already awesome video
Also hope y'all are having a great day
You too! And good luck on the art!
nice
4:23 Is it possible it could grow up to the size of Juratyrant since this genus was formerly part of Stokesosauridae?
It's hard to tell, because these fossils are so poorly preserved there isn't (to my knowledge) any way to tell how old this individual may have been, and if it could have grown larger. As for Juratyrant, there's not been this amount of detail done on it, so it's hard to say.
So Eotyrannus is sort of a dead end that died out with no descendants?
I heard recently that some paleontologists believe it's possible that all dromaeosauridae/raptors descended from a toothed & wing-clawed bird that evolved back into being a terrestrial dinosaur. I don't know if there's much (if any) evidence to support or disprove this theory, other than the birds & raptors being closely related. It's an interesting idea though. I was wondering if you had any thoughts on this?
It's an idea that's been floated, and bird evolution is definitely more complicated than many people give credit towards. So maybe? What we have right now doesn't support that a ton, but it's also one of the problems with paleontology a single specimen could give that idea a lot more support. So right now, not really, but it isn't too far away from the realm of possibility based on current evidence.
do not think I never heard of it
Haha you Tyrannosuroids so much it started to sound like not a real word hah
Yeah, I was super worried about saying it so much, but it is important for separating the tyrannosauroids and tyrannosaurids.
I really hope someone would de extinct the nonavian dinosaurs before I die.
evolution is not a process nor an activity that a species does. evolution is a net result of natural selection and luck. by talking as if species evolution is ‘doing something’ or ‘designing to a task’ misrepresents what evolution is.
Did u know that terrible lizards were boring , had furry feathers stripe tails, mohawks, moved slow , did a lot of stares ,sleeping . fighting only 4 food , dominance, mating, hunting , the mouths usually shut like crocs .sounds like birds, (like lizards - very still, and then moves quickly., then still again). All boring!!!
