    when i was a kid i was obsessed with animals, i wanted to be a vet or a marine biologist or a dog trainer or a herpetologist or a conservationist, list goes on and on. as a result, i used to get tons of nonfiction books as christmas and birthday gifts, huge encyclopedias and hardcover treasure troves of information. but i was so so young that i enjoyed moreso the concept of these books than actually being able to appreciate all the information, and unfortunately i had to donate almost every single one in high school, with the thought process that my childhood animal-dreams were dead. this video is so close to those euphoric memories i had of reading through all those books, except now as an adult it actually makes way more sense and is. honestly that much more fun. thank you so much for giving that back to me and reminding me how important it is and was to me

      @@mokarokas-1727 The biologists’ study of 4,000 land mammal species spanning a body mass range from 2 grams to 4,000 kilograms showed that the slope of extinction risk against six established predictors of extinction becomes steeper with increasing body mass. In particular, a sharp increase in extinction risk occurs at a body mass of three kilograms. Above this size body mass “extinction risk begins to be compounded by the cumulative effects of multiple threatening factors,” the authors note. The team’s study establishes that land mammals with large body sizes possess extinction rates that are orders of magnitude larger than the most optimistic speciation rates. Consequently, mammals with large body sizes cannot be the product of natural process evolution.

    Fun Fact: Placentia is a bit of a misnomer because the Marsupials also use a placenta. The difference is in the length of time the babies remain in the womb and stage of development when they're born. Placentals keep the baby in the womb much longer than marsupials and have a much more developed placenta.

      I think the placentas have different evolutionary origins though. Several other animals also have a placenta-like structure; I know some live-bearing sharks do.
      Of course since eutheria and metatheria are very closely related these structures could be commonly derived, or both evolved in parallel along very similar lines. I would imagine much more similar to each other than shark placentas at least

    Thinking about it, I think that it's safe to say that Cynodonts did have fur to some extent, given that there is evidence of fur from some type of animal in a coprolite from what I've heard. Even if we don't know exactly what the fur came from, it's safe to say that at the very least, the closest group to mammals probably had fur since their descendants are confirmed to have had fur. Even if it turns out that the fur in the coprolite is from another group of synapsids, it would still suggest that Cynodonts had fur since if a more disant branch of synapsid had it, then the closer one probably did too, barring convergent evolution of course.

    The video you showed for a "rat kangaroo" is actually of a "kangaroo rat," a completely different family of placental mammals from North America. Also, Potoroidae is spelled Potoroidae, not Potoridae.

    Obviously the common names came before the scientific names. This man said “shrew and “mice” at least one billion times but referred to true mice and shrews only once. Only they get to join the after party with the capys.
    Also, take a shot every time he says a name that is just a recombination of another name.

I kind of like those moments where you question things, and whatnot...
