Ah... Chinle... Possibly the most studied and understood formations for the pivotal Triassic period.
Amazing video.
Thanks! The Chinle ' s an incredible spot!
Nobody worry! I'm not going anywhere. New video coming soon, my best stuff yet!
I can't wait!
I KNOE RIGHT U DESERVE WAY MORE SUBS THEN THIS!!!!!!!!!!
The Living Past i
Your videos always get me so emotional
Fossils are the best answer to evolution. Great video.
Yes they are, thanks!
@@TheLivingPast and embryology as well.
9m is not a very good estimate on the part of Drumheller et al., their estimate for the complete length of the femur and its circumference (57-60cm, 165mm) aren't that much greater than the femur of the 4m long holotype of Postosuchus kirkpatricki TTU-P 9000 (52cm, 154mm).
These are the type of comments that make me want to go and research these topics for myself more.
I'm going to be out in the field for close to a month. When I return I'll have some awesome things to share. Stay with me through twitter (@ethancowgill).
The high carnivore and lower prey exist in our oceans today.
I love all the art from the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science that you used in this video.
Collin Delgado is a good buddy of mine. He makes songs like the one you heard play at the beginning and end under the name "Natural Beats."
Quick Question:
Have you ever read the Quintaglio Ascension trilogy?
+Dalek Renegade I haven't
The Living Past You should give those books and they would be right up your alley.
This concept art looks AWESOME
Well, done!
Keep 'em coming.
Thanks, will do!
U need more subscribers
All I need is to make more videos. I'll earn the subs one at a time through hard work.
Thanks
The Living Past no problem, can you make a video about the recently discovered mosasaur from Antarctica, I made a vid about it, gave me many more subs, you should do it too.
I really love the way you bring these things to life.
I appreciate it, thanks for the support. New episodes on the way!
The Living Past
I'm looking forward to them!
So cool! This is fascinating AF! I love your videos and how much research you clearly put into them. Thanks as always for the knowledge!
Thanks for watching! New videos on the way.
love your videos man... cant fathom how you dont have more views than you do...
keep it up and don't be discouraged :-)
Rest assured for you and anybody else that may ever wonder, I'm not going anywhere. If (as there often are) any extended durations where I don't upload, please remember that it doesn't stem from a lack of dedication or from laziness. This project is on my mind all day, every day. Everything I know about how to do research, how to write, edit etc. was accumulated through making these films. Right now I'm all in on this thing. A small view count doesn't bother me, it simply means that I have to read, write, and create more. It's a motivator to work harder. Thanks for the support. Most exciting video yet should be up in a matter of days.
Perhaps these particular Phytosaurs hunted in packs. There is apparently some evidence indicating that the modern Cuban crocodile, a rather small, if highly aggressive species that leads a much more terrestrial existence than other crocs, engage in cooperative hunting tactics with others of its kind.
Always enjoy your videos, thanks.
Thanks for commenting as usual! New episodes on the way...
Good video. I was thinking at the start the answer to how could so many carnivores exist with less herbivores was obvious. The carnivores were eating each other. ? Meat is meat. And maybe those ancient animals would attack in numbers, also. Or the ancient crocs were just not at all concerned about size of their prey. Bigger prey = bigger feast! hahahha
TruthSurge predators in modern day also kill each other.
Well, one more theory about why so many crnivores is: that few species of herbivores may be "just" really numerous. If we have normal prey to predatory ratio, but the prey is made only of few species of creatures, but still the same biomass... T%hat would kind of explain. Still we would have to understand why herbivores didn`t evolve in to more species, but hey that is only a theory
Or we simply still didn`t uncover some herbivore beasts. Triass was pretty freaking long time ago
Which has some basis given the ecological dominance of Lystrosaurus in the early Triassic.
Yeah, I was honestly going to posit that the whole "great dying" thing might've had a little to do with a greater diversity of carnivores than herbivores, but still, to call this atypical would be an understatement. This is weird as hell, if our understanding of it is correct (big, BIG "if")
I really love your way of narration!
This informative video is very evocative, immersive and satisfying, excellent work
God this makes me want to see the Triassic
I'm expecting Aspidorhynchus vs Rhamphorhynchus vs Leptolepides fossil here.
But its also fun to hear more about the Triassic anyway.
It makes sense. Aquatic biospheres are very predator heavy. At least on the macro level. Why not land?
:) Your videos always make me wonder about such beasts

Same
Another Great Video! :)
You make amazing videos. I hope your channel grows by a lot! :D
Thanks so much! New video very soon...
Amazing, thanks
Appreciate it
Purple Dan referred to your channel. You e got great content! 👊🏼
Nice video bro¡¡
excellent!
Thanks!
thank you. nice video.
Can you do an episode on velociraptor, and how the media has made it to be some cunning monster?
There comes a time in nature where predators become so desperate for food that they'll even risk their lives by attacking just about anything, especially other predators.
Nice video! Like # 113 and subscribed! ;-)
Appreciate it! New video VERY soon
Maybe the predators ate each other.
My theory is that the predators just happened to live in conditions where their remains could be preserved better.
Yeah I've thought that too. Seems far more likely then that this ecosystem was completely different to any other that has ever existed
There are no 30 foot rausuchians known from the chinle valley or anywhere else the biggest in the area was postosuchus which was only 16 feet according to fossils.
Well, if we observe stable environments doesn't this happen quite often? Look at the oceans which had life much longer than the dry land, most animals there eat other animals, very few actually dine on sea weed or similar. Couldn't it be something similar?
The ocean is a different story. Most of the energy at the base of the food web come in the form of photosynthetic bacteria.
They simply ate each other.
If that was you narrating, you sound young. Hope you go far in life.
Sure was and sure am (17). Appreciate the kindness.
They all eat each other all the time...like fish.im shore there was other thing they ate too but like fish if you are smaller than me your food
?
XD
:O
Put subs in Spanish 👍🏻
I like your videos except when you mention evolution.
