There's an entire prehistoric lakebed they found that has dead herbivores at the bottom, dead small carnivores above them, then dead Allosauruses on top it, small under big. They figured that there was a drought there, they all went to drink, the carnivores then ate all the herbivores, then when they were dead, the Allosauruses ate all the small carnivores, then the Allosauruses ate each other, then the biggest Allosauruses starved. lol nature I guess.
@@EGarrett01 another possible and perhaps more likely explanation is that maybe it was quicksand, as the herbivores piled up, carnivored showed up who all got stuck etc
@@iron2684 I think if that were the case the big allosaurs would probably be right above the herbivores, since they would be the first ones to go try to eat them and the smaller ones would back off until later.
So much has changed about dinosaurs since I was a kid. I never considered desert environments and the large sauropods and duck billed dinosaurs being so far from water. When I was a kid, the sauropods lived in swamps and the duck billed dinosaurs live around lakes and rivers. And never even thought of a water hole truce.
@@johndoherty487 we even have dinosaurs that lived in the Arctic. Search for prince creek formation. Polar dinosaurs lived there at the end of the cretaceous.
I like how even though near water animals tend to enter a 'truce,' they still make the animals apprehensive about the predator. Even knowing that there's no reason for it to attack, it's still an animal that many of these dinosaurs (and possibly the pterosaurs too) probably have trauma related to due to past experiences. Water plus the number of large enemies nearby may eliminate almost all the risk of being near this animal, but fear does not care for rational thought. Well, unless you're far from the water. Then maybe you have some reason to be afraid... Also, on a less serious note, the animals in this scene were all adorable.
Everyone's fascinated by these animals, just the time since there existence is so vast, we were the distant future inhabitants, I wonder in 66 million years who'll be roaming the earth and it's oceans.
@@marcgarrigosmane166 I doubt it will be mammals that will be running around in this planet 66 millions years in the future, it would most likely be a new genus tree of creatures that are yet to emerge.
Indeed. Herd animals know better than anyone that numbers mean a lot. If you want a drink, you can't afford to attack anyone at the watering hole. You will simply die. There's WAY too many of them, and when it comes to large prey, their first defense is fighting. So they know that all they need to do is give the tarbosaur space. It won't risk either dying or being chased away from the important water source because it felt like getting some food.
Herbivores: "You know the law of the watering hole, carnivore." Carnivore: "Calm down. I'm not a law breaker. I'm here for a drink, just like every single one of you."
@@richie_0740 Likely because Barsboldia already filled the role of the large ornithopod in the waterhole, so Saurolophus wasn't necessary in the scene.
Argentinosaurus is the biggest "known" (and even that is debated) the "mongolian titan" is a somewhat speculative sauropod based on footprints, I think even a single footprint.
@@wildlifeisthewealthofnatur5457 Maraapunisaurus (formerly Amphicoelias) is only known from one fragmentary part of a vertebrae which has been missing for over a hundred years. Bruhathkayosaurus may have claim to the title of largest dinosaur, but its nonexistent remains make it difficult to pinpoint an exact size compared to the likes of Argentinosaurus, which has actual physical fossil material to work off of.
Being big means they have more reserves to draw on, so they can go without food for longer, it also means their metabolisms are slower as well, so they process what food is in their gut at a slower rate. Smaller animals have higher metabolisms, so they process food very quickly, this is why smaller animals require a lot of food on a daily basis, while larger animals can afford to go hungry for brief periods. No animal can survive without water for very long though, no matter the size, though again, larger animals have a bit more time than smaller animals do, though the gap is a LOT smaller than it is for food.
Yes, because it’s mandatory for everything living in a desert to be gaunt and thin 24/7…it’s not like they’ve evolved adaptations for such conditions or anything… Good lord, some people look for ANYTHING to nitpick these days…

They would know that the top predator want a drink not eat yet.
They are still, quite wisely, giving the top predator a wide berth.

Carnivore: "Calm down. I'm not a law breaker. I'm here for a drink, just like every single one of you."

Also, I like this scene better than Camp Cretaceous - the space the Tarbo gets make the truce more believeable.
Also Jungle Book.
This voice, this English accent, those words nicely talk...
Since here we are in Mongolia in the late cretaceous, there were also saurolophus, nemegtosaurus, tarchia and therisinosaurus to.
