Who is here after the discovery of new spinosaurus tail in morocco?this changes the entire dimension of this discovery. It was primarily an aquatic creature.such a fascinating discovery.I hope eons makes an update on this new discovery
When i was in 2nd grade my teacher at the time made me do a report on a dinosaur. I remember looking at books for hours trying to decide which dinosaur to choose. I eventually settled on Spinosaurus; I remember thinking to myself this dinosaur is special. The information was sparse at the time, they knew it was discovered in africa; but that was it. I spent hours trying to find more information on It, and i did thanks to the to the early internet. I read and read more research about it; which i eventually understood after rereading them so many times. Anything just sate my curiosity; thinking back at it i even formed my own hypotheses about what the sail was used for. That research planted that little seed in me that eventually blossomed to a passion for Science. I'm in college rn majoring in Chemistry; and I'm just coming home to take a small break before i go back and study. Watching this video made me a little misty eyed as this was the reason my insatiable curiosity for the natural world came about. It puts things into perspective , you know?
I don't know what Animal Planet is doing these days, but Discovery is a bit of a joke in my opinion. When they began airing all those reality/game shows, that was the end of their credibility.
Hi, I'm an arctic archaeologist. But I also love paleoecology. Would you consider doing a video on Megaloceros (the largest deer that ever lived) or Paraceratherium (the largest terrestrial mammal that ever lived)?
I’m seriously in love with the new look of the spinosaurus. It’s so cool and unique now. It’s not just like a regular theropod that hunted other dinosaurs and with similar body build.
From a Rex with a sail, to an armored giant, to a more crocodilian dinosaur. Spinosaurus has changed alot. It was a little odd how this video glossed over the pop culture rendition of Spinosaurus, that swayed scientific thinking until the later discoveries about seven years later. But I must thank you for focusing on the science. Thank you.

Wait, I didn't caught the thing. What is the answer on that one? Heard recently only about: creating the shadow for fish to eat them like some herons, display and to protect against land predators biting from the up... But none of these seemed to be just the ideal there

Man, what I would give to see that river of giants in its prime. I can't even imagine how awe inspiring and terrifying it would have looked and sounded.
You should do an episode about pollinators, how they became a thing and how their relationship with plants evolved through time. How the first plants dealt with the non-existence of animal pollinators, etc.
I love this stuff. You guys are the only consistent source of prehistoric content on UA-cam. Also, you should do a video on the history of Carnotaurini.
And now the sail just gets longer to the tail. It's so exquisitely exciting to keep following the update of Spinosaur through lifetime. It seems the mystery is slowly yet surely to be unraveled.
"The River of Giants" was only part of the Kem Kem beds, Bahariva was a own river sytstem and there were a couple other rivers flowing into the sea in North Africa, it wasn't one giant river ;)
Ah Spinosaurus. The dinosaur that in a certain video game can go from walking on all fours and chasing you down in a gait that makes it look like an adorable giant murder puppy, to instead running on its hind legs and clawing at your face in a gait that instead makes it appear like a funny giant death ducky. God I love Spinos.

not possible for theropods to be quadrupedal. the upper body was not built to support their weight or walk in that fashion at all. the wish bone that theropods possess locked the shoulders in place, meaning that the arms could not move in the swinging motion that is needed for that kind of movement. The knuckle walking is also impossible, as its arms could not have supported its weight. The idea of a quadrupedal spinosaurus or any theropod is an outdated and impossible idea at best. it’s tail which was used for balance and the shift in center of gravity comes into play, thats another thing people forget. the idea that spinosaurus walked on all fours is laughable at best, the paper that was written was horribly rushed and not reviewed well enough before release. Its upper body anatomy and arm anatomy would not have allowed for it, it may have had shorter legs than previously thought but that does not mean it would have slumped over on to its arms, even though it was a light animal for its size its arms could still have not bore the weight with out breaking in some kind of way. (also did not mean to sound aggressive, was just passing on information)
it was a predominant aquatic predator, thats why it had aquatic adaptations.... The animals that it ate was around or in the water. The fish that it hunted were larger than some smaller boats. upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/75/Spinosaurus_with_contemporaneous_taxa.jpg

Since blood is a very ancient trait found in almost all animals a lot about it is unknown, but theorizing about why and how it evolved would still be cool.
Guessed spino would be a swamp monster way back when I heard about it. I remember someone saying the sail would break easy and kill the animal if it ran around like Trex is said to. Glad a better perspective came about
Mine too, it's in my top 5 of favourite dinosaurs. I know it when I saw Jurassic Park 3 in theaters, and it's a fascinating animal. And the reconstructions didn't make it worse, it's even more incredible. I was really excited with the discover of his new tale and the theory of a full aquatic animal. But my most favourite one it will be always the Deinonychus.
U guys forgot to mention about Scott Hartman’s reconstruction because the one you showed in the video is classed as inaccurate because the legs are 28% smaller than what they should be, but it was really enjoyable and I love hearing about its history during ww2 u guys r awesome so keep popping out these dinosaur videos
Hartman only disagreed, he didn't prove that Ibrahims proportions are wrong, in fact Ibrahims team corrected Hartman on his reconstruction later on....
First, the pin's you wear on your shirts in the episodes you host are so cool! Second, why does war seem to draw upon the destruction of priceless relics? Such a shame.
The literal translation would be "free lord" or "free master". A "Herr" is a man with a certain autority over other people. Although today "Herr" is the general polite form of adress for any man in German, similar to using "Mister" (from "master") in English. "Freiherr" is the lowest nobility title, equal to "baron" in French.
Spinosaurus was and is my favorite dinosaur growing up. Even though it may not look like it could take on a T. rex like in Jurassic park 3 it still looks badass as this is what it truly looked like and I’m happy to except the truth. It’s just like if dinosaurs had more proto feathers than we thought they are still cool and only true lovers of history will be able to except this.
+Mohammed Alassaf this video is *not* really 'that' accurate anymore Turns out that the Spinosaurus is more like the theropods, terrestrial dwelling. The Spinosaurus seem to be really unfit to diving; and not even swimming due to its anatomical structure, and placements of its organs, along with the fact that the *original* bio-isotope studies concluded that the spinosaurus is the most terrestrial spinosaurid and has similiar isotope compared to most theropods.

@@thedoruk6324 Since Im too lazy to go see it myself: Does the Spinosaurus stick part of its head into the water to catch prey? That has to be the use of the receptors and the raised nostrils
I'd love to see a video about evolution of mammals. Did the monotremes come first? How did we end up with marsupials? Have we found any evidence of early placental mammals? How did we get from Dimetrodon to tiny rodent-like stem mammals?
Great video! Thank you! Maybe you can make a video about the river of giants you mentioned or about the strange dino called Parasaurolophus (and one of my favorites).

My brain: HE’S A SEMI-AQUATIC, EGG-LAYING REPTILE OF ACTION!!!!
Please do a video about Inostrencevia and other Gorgonopsids. Thanks for all the great content! I love your videos!
I'd love to see a video dedicated to the T-Rex. Also, one dedicated to what aquatic life was like during the Mezozoic.
This is my favorite dinosaur when i was a kid
U guys forgot to mention about Scott Hartman’s reconstruction because the one you showed in the video is classed as inaccurate because the legs are 28% smaller than what they should be, but it was really enjoyable and I love hearing about its history during ww2 u guys r awesome so keep popping out these dinosaur videos
Hartman only disagreed, he didn't prove that Ibrahims proportions are wrong, in fact Ibrahims team corrected Hartman on his reconstruction later on....
First, the pin's you wear on your shirts in the episodes you host are so cool!
Second, why does war seem to draw upon the destruction of priceless relics?
Such a shame.
One of the best channel on UA-cam, great for all ages
Growing up I had a spinosaurus poster hanging above my bed. I loved that dino.
I literally just finished presenting my 10th Grade Project. My chosen topic was the Spinosaurus' sail. It is my favorite dinosaur.
His name began with Freiherr, that's an old nobility title. ;)
Freiherr=Freeman in German?
The literal translation would be "free lord" or "free master". A "Herr" is a man with a certain autority over other people. Although today "Herr" is the general polite form of adress for any man in German, similar to using "Mister" (from "master") in English.
"Freiherr" is the lowest nobility title, equal to "baron" in French.
Fun fact: Stromer's full name was "Karl Heinrich Ernst Freiherr Stromer von Reichenbach".
@@johannageisel5390 aber den titel baron hatten wir dich auch ^^
@@johannageisel5390 "Koorl Heinrigg Örnst Fräihörr Strömer von Raigenbagg" please... ☝️😂
Looking forward to their video covering the new evidence about Spinosaurus!
It is very telling about how rare fossils really are since it took a century to find another example of spinosaurus.
It’s weird how much I enjoyed this video. Good presence, good info, good pacing
2020 spinosaurus: ight, watch this
3:27 Fun fact:
They named that dinosaur Irritator because they had a hard time finding out what it was! Very irritating...
Spinosaurus was and is my favorite dinosaur growing up. Even though it may not look like it could take on a T. rex like in Jurassic park 3 it still looks badass as this is what it truly looked like and I’m happy to except the truth. It’s just like if dinosaurs had more proto feathers than we thought they are still cool and only true lovers of history will be able to except this.
And that is why I love this dinosaur.
The spino is my favorite dino it looks so cool
Any chance for an updated video with the new findings?
Just found this channel
And I adore it. So interesting and informative!!!
2:02 so, basically stromer discovered godzilla..
+Mohammed Alassaf this video is *not* really 'that' accurate anymore
Turns out that the Spinosaurus is more like the theropods, terrestrial dwelling.
The Spinosaurus seem to be really unfit to diving; and not even swimming due to its anatomical structure, and placements of its organs, along with the fact that the *original* bio-isotope studies concluded that the spinosaurus is the most terrestrial spinosaurid and has similiar isotope compared to most theropods.
Sources; Oxygen isotope evidence for semi-aquatic habits among spinosaurid theropods
A buoyancy, balance and stability challenge to the hypothesis of a semi-aquatic Spinosaurus Stromer, 1915
Yep
Yep uhhhhhhhhhh wow
@@thedoruk6324 Since Im too lazy to go see it myself: Does the Spinosaurus stick part of its head into the water to catch prey? That has to be the use of the receptors and the raised nostrils
Croczilla
Spinosaurus is my all time fav extinct animal.It is so interesting , so big and scary , and yet fascianating
Good job Jurassic park 3 your spino was surprisingly accurate for what you had to work with
I'd love to see a video about evolution of mammals. Did the monotremes come first? How did we end up with marsupials? Have we found any evidence of early placental mammals? How did we get from Dimetrodon to tiny rodent-like stem mammals?
It's not so much the sail, it's the dent in the upper jaw of the Spinosauridae - a trait they all share - that baffles me
Would you compare the jaws of spinosaurids to crocodilian jaws?
"The world's only known semi-aquatic dinosaur"
What about ducks? :P
Angry Kittens I think they meant non-avian dinosaurs
Or cormorants, alcids (auks, murres and puffins), swans, gannets, pelicans, arguably the Osprey, etc.
Those are descendants of dinosaurs
@@gswalex2674 That's like saying whales are descendants of mammals. Birds _are_ dinosaurs.
Ducks arent dinosaurs
This lady has gained my sub, Hope the best in this messed world
Great video! Thank you!
Maybe you can make a video about the river of giants you mentioned or about the strange dino called Parasaurolophus (and one of my favorites).
This was a fluke that I found this channel and I'm really really happy 2 say I'm interested like I've never been before thanks too the lady presenting this her voice is perfect and she is pretty 2 plus the information most of all isn't boring soo big thank you from Sydney Australia lol your dinosaur down under haha haha!!!!
