Writing a book where this happens. The moment I heard that there was at least one point in time where two different tyrannosaur species potentially competing with each other, I thought "that is way too interesting to let pass."

If there was a species that is most likely to hunt in packs in the age of the dinosaurs it would be tyrannosaurs. However they most likely did mobbing behavior rather than pack hunting
"Mobbing in animals is an antipredator adaptation in which individuals of prey species mob a predator by cooperatively attacking or harassing it, usually to protect their offspring. A simple definition of mobbing is an assemblage of individuals around a potentially dangerous predator." Based on the definition it seems unlikely they mobbed.

There were multiple Tyrannosaurs in North America before Trex, and Gorgosaurus wasn’t the last tyrannosaur before the Trex’s ancestor migrated from Asia, so I wouldn’t call Gorgosaurus “the king before trex” because over millions of years there were multiple “kings”, some even coexisted with each other like Gorgosaurus and Daspletosaurus, I think a better topic for a video should be about Lythronax, which is the oldest known tyrannosaurid from North America, I guess you could call it the “first king”
Albertosaurus was a bit bulkier and bigger than Gorgosaurus, but Gorgosaurus would've had a stronger bite. But Albertosaurus had different teeth build for riping flesh EDIT: Gorgosaurus was a bit bigger than Albertosaurus, my bad. Albertosaurus had a strong bite, so maybe a bit stronger than Gorgosaurus
Something you’ll find interesting is therozinasaurus was theorized to have evolved from a close relative of the tyrannosaurs that transitioned from a carnivorous diet to a plant based one over millions of years.
Thank you for a perfect video of these Tyrannosaurs, Gorgosaurus, Albertosaurus an Daspletosaurus. - MY WISH; - Please; - Can you make a video documentrry of the "Big Clawed" DRYPTOSAURUS ???
Cool overview. Couple things though - Canada has provinces and territories, not states. Please do not refer to Alberta as a state. New evidence shows that Gorgosaurus and Albertosaurus might just be subspecies of each other or even the same species and not distinct species.
I know this is really a very minor nitpick but I should do it. Non avian dinosaurs went extinct 66 million years ago, not 65. (Tbh I also sometimes get this mixed up because as a child I was so used to the 65 mya as well)

@@matilija Well Gorosaurus was theorized to have a large brain since they also been theorized to hunt in packs which requires a fair amount of intelligence.
@@matilija side note but I actually had a theory that Tyrannosaurs was smarter then we thought. I got my idea from rats since despite there brain size rats are surprisingly intelligent.
@@TheSandwhichman108 You didn't mention intelligence in your first post, you mentioned brain size, which has only some indication of intelligence, and the T-rex brain cavity is similar in overall scale to a Blue Whales or Humans, major differences are that the T-rex has the largest temporal and occipital lobes ever measured in a brain cavity, while it's frontal lobe while still large by animal standards is smaller in relation to it's rather enlarged other lobes, it's proportionally very similar to modern raptors and vultures, just at a much larger scale. And raptors are known for their intelligence and eyesight and vultures for their intelligence and sense of smell. I haven't read any literature on Gorgosaurus brain cavity, but I would wager it's similarly shaped to T-rex, just scaled down to it's smaller skull and would therefore have similar characteristics in overall intelligence since they are both Tyrannosaurs.
It's remarkable that several different Tyrannosaurs had very short arms. How such a design was adaptive is not an easy question. All of them apparently used their head almost exclusively as a hunting weapon, their arms being useless for such purposes. Maybe they also could use 1 foot for the attack while balancing on their other foot as well as their tail.
Alberta isn't a state! IT'S A PROVINCE! There are many differences between them. Like a state has more control over its laws, provinces do NOT! States are smaller in size, province are huge! They are not the same thing!!! Other than that though, your videos pretty solid dude.
Extreme aggression and plain savagery towards each other, seems to run in the tyrannosaur family. Wonder why it was so prevalent in this specific family even compared to other theropods
May be the more aggressive male tyrannosaurs were more likely to win fights over females. which would then reproduce and pass their traits onward possibly
Alioramus and Tarbosaurus also coexisted in the Nemegt Formation. However, unlike with Gorgosaurus and Daspletosaurus, there was a massive size difference between Alioramus and Tarbosaurus. Also, Nanotyrannus is not a valid genus. It's just a juvenile Rex.

I wouldn't call Gorgosaurus, the king before T-Rex. In the Dinosaur Park Formation where Gorgosaurus lived, Daspletosaurus would be king. It was bigger, stronger and bulkier than Gorgosaurus. It probably also had a stronger bite. Gorgosaurus would've hunted Hadrosaurs and Daspletosaurus would've hunted Ceratopsians, so they probably wouldn't encounter very often
@@kade-qt1zu Well, young Dasps would've been faster and more agile than adults, so them hunting Hadrosaurs is pretty normal. Adults sometimes maybe also would've hunted Hadrosaurs, but they would hunt Ceratopsians more often, because that's how they were build
I agree, Daspletosaurus was the larger of the 2 by about 1 ton. Plus we have a Dasp individual that's said to be 11 meters long and 4.5 tons or more, which would put it in the size range of Tarbosaurus.@@NanuqEditzS
I legitimately thought Gorgosaurus was just a Toho character from the movie King Kong Escapes! I had no idea this was a real dinosaur shows what I know
No, Gorgosaurus is still valid because it was thought to have lived in two spots. Dinosaur park formation and prince creek formation. The price creek Gorgosaurus was later revealed to be Nanuqsaurus, but Gorgosaurus is still its own species as the ones in Dinosaur park are still valid.
@@denisucuuu Actually most dromaeosaurs were slower than previously thought and were in fact, solitary endurance hunters that maay have occasionally mobbed larger prey
So to explain because I worked on its fossils the land that the animal was originally found in and we were digging in turned out to be private land owned by natives and because of that the natives put out a request to be the ones to name it so in the region of Canada and Alaska gorgosaurus was later renamed to Nanuqsaurus(polar bear lizard).
@@Fluffyeye47 it was both at one point but in recent studies the Gorgosaurus sub species found in Canada where I had studied it, was renamed to Nanuqsaurus and later classified as a Tyrannosauridae while, Gorgosaurus is classified as a Albertosauridae. That’s the difference

This was a 15 meter creature we’re talking about here and contrary to popular belief it wasn’t skinny. And not too long ago a renowned paleontologist Nizar Ibrahim who’s none for his studies on spinosaurus stated it likely weighed more than 7-8 tons and likely weighed 10-12 metric tons. So while it’s not as likely as 8 tons it could’ve possibly reached that. And the last 6 ton estimate I’ve seen was by Dan folkes which as a while ago so I’m not sure where you got this 6 ton idea.

@@TaurusSaurus it wasn’t skinny but it sure wasn’t built like a tank either. Specimens are too few and far in between to say it can be over 10 tons.

@@GODEYE270115 yeah but the same goes for the 6-7 ton estimate. As of right now the most accurate estimate is. 8.2 tons and I heard that in Ibrahim’s most recent paper in may he estimated it at 9.5 tons because of the increased density. Now I may be wrong here so I’d go with 8.2 tons possibly higher as I’ve heard Paul (who did the estimate) reduced the density so it could be higher.
Gorgosaurus and Albertasaurus are almost certainly the same animal. It’s even possible we’re seeing sexual dimorphism here with one being male and the other female but who knows which?
