      I have raised many poultry and if they were the size of the fireback i would fear them, quail may be small and cute but they go for blood and have no remorse. A chicken that size would kill and eat a person I have no doubt.
      Also NEVER trust chickens around young kittens, growing up the chickens owned by my uncle killed and partially consumed a kitten that was less then a month old. Chickens also if given the chance will regularly will eat frogs, mice, baby birds, snakes, and even each other and their cannibalistic tendencies can be such a problem that you can buy anti cannibalism spray for them, overall do not trust chickens or any poultry with an animal significantly smaller then it is or anything that has eyes it can easily reach since its not uncommon for them to peck pout the eyes of rabbits or sometimes kittens.
      They arent a threat due to how small they are but their actual temperament would make them a nightmare at large sizes.

      Chickens, ducks, and quail are strait psychopaths though, chickens will watch you kill another chicken and then immediately gather around anticipating the scraps. I have seen then go for the head from a chicken being slaughtered a number of times.

    Seeing a new vid for Kaimere always activates that little monkey portion of my brain that yells "LETS GO"!
    Always loved Phorusrhacids. But one question that I can't wait to be fulfilled in a upcoming video is the ecological relationship between the White Cockatrice and the Ammut, as they seem to share similar habitat and location if I recall correctly.

      Thank you! So the white cockatrice is generally pretty wary of dense forests that the Ammut lives in, and the Ammut doesn't go high enough in elevation because of the cold, so while they are close in range, they actually avoid each other's habitats.

  • @Exquailibur
    @Exquailibur Місяць тому +1

    I actually really like how all feathered therapods are called birds in Kaimere, its makes sense and may as well be true even on Earth. Birds diverged from other dinosaurs in the Jurassic if I am not mistaken so that would mean they are actually a very old lineage and regardless there were taxa that would look typical among modern birds long before the genus Tyrannosaurus appeared and contemporary with most or all dinosaurs in the mid to late Cretaceous were dinosaurs we would be unable to distinguish from modern birds without close inspection and many were within known bird clades since a number of modern bird clades split before the end Cretaceous extinction event.
    There is also the fact that in the modern day there are close to twice as many birds as mammals and roughly the same number of bird species as non bird reptiles which means that about half of all modern reptiles are dinosaurs and there are more dinosaurs alive today then mammals. The age of dinosaurs never really ended, they are just smaller and mostly flighted now is all.
    Birds are not even a new kind of dinosaur, they were contemporary with most of the famous dinosaur clades that everyone can name. In fact taking the fact that small animals with hollow bones rarely fossilize well and the diversity of modern birds it isnt totally unreasonable to say that birds and their relatives were potentially some of the most diverse dinosaur clades even during the Mesozoic. For every species of Tyrannosaur there was almost certainly several bird species, or at least species closely related enough to them that saying they arent would be silly if they were still alive today.

      I suppose I shouldn't have said it so conclusively, but the robust build of the larger taxa especially weren't suited for pursuit. Their large feet and thick limbs, not to mention the huge heads. Built more like a cassowary than an ostrich. That's not to say they weren't fast of course, but the image of them engaging in long chases is unlikely in the opinion of a lot of folks I've talked to who study them.

    • @dudotolivier6363
      @dudotolivier6363 Місяць тому +2

      Any large herbivore in itself can be a potentially deadly prey item for a predator.
      It's not because a predator is large or is even specialized to a certain type of preys this mean its hunts are by far very easy to do.
      T-rex, for example, was maybe huge, bulky, prepared and used to hunt Triceratops and Edmontosaurus (even so the last had zero defenses aside its tail), huntings these two animals each time was still a serious and difficult thing to realize.
      Lions are maybe very used and specialized to hunt zebras or african buffaloes, most hunts still end up unsuccessfull for these big cats.
      Even in group, each members will be as cautious to not be as possible be hurt by the target they choosed.
      Because even if they act togethers, each members will still keep its own personnal mind and prefer keeping its own life as safe as possible.
      So, when a group of predators attack a given target, they act in organised way instead of all attacking blindly at the same time.
      Whatever the large animals is rhino sized like Toxodont or Common Oliphaunt or elephant sized such Drenduga, that end more or less the same for a predator as large as the Fireback, alone or in group.

      @raulalatorre7113 Місяць тому

      Yeah, a lion can be killed by the kick of a Zebra or the horns of a Wildebeest. Even the usual prey can be deadly for the predator.
      What I mean is that, I know something like the common Oliphaunt can be dangerous but I imagined that a especialized FireBack or a couple could bring down one with relative easy and I was surprised when I heard that only a pack could kill one.
      And for the Drenduga, I doubt that even a docen terror birds can bring down a healthy adult.

      Same for a Drenduga, but obviousely, always more than one Fireback is resquested, as even an old bull can be very deadly even if this state.
