      @@Textbooktravel just some feedback and please know I really like your vids and think you're doing a great job!
      Just for me in this recent video you detoured twice into a) fossil formation and carbon dating and then b) DNA sequencing.
      For me I kinda understood why you felt like you had to detour for fossilisation buttt I mean it really took me out of the immersion of the video as it is in fact about primates not fossilisation. By the second detour on DNA sequencing, I was in information overload! I mean most people know these processes already and the ones that don't would have a hard time downloading all the new info - primates taxonomy, fossilisation and carbon dating and then DNA sequencing and chromosomal structures? Yikes
      It also meant you talked less about the monkeys and apes which is why I clicked the video! In future maybe you could keep those detours for a separate video so you can cover the topic in more detail. Not having a dig at all just offering feedback.
      Although I really did love your graphics for both sequences so keep that up! All around I enjoyed the video but wanted more information on the primates.

    finally! In your dog video you stated that the next video will be about snakes, and it was! Maybe there was a lot of research in your primate video, it had to be delayed. For some reason I'm getting a bit interested in rodents now, because there are literally 2000 of them little critters.

    • @billyr2904
      @billyr2904 2 роки тому +1

      Ok, also I did see your newest video.
      The thing about how, with the exception of humans, that apes have the smallest range, well that's foreshadowing humans killing everything (killing everything is just an over exaggeration).
      In your future ape video, can you explain how humans are foreshadowing the relatives series to why so many mammals (lemurs especially) are threatened.

    • @billyr2904
      @billyr2904 2 роки тому +1

      The cladogram shown in the video is a bit misleading, because there's a myth where evolution is progress, and every step progressively gets better and better till we get to the top, which humans. Now through that idea out of the window, because that's not how it works. You see evolution is about small changes in an organism's genome and doesn't Matter whether it's superior than others (that's called dominion). Humans are just what's called a more derived ape, and the other apes in the superfamily is what's called ancestral (or informally 'primitive'). The order primates itself suggests dominion, because it literally means '1st rank'.

I saw Mtn Gorilla in Virunga in 93 and then in 2017 i saw the Marmoset in the Amazon and was super excited to add the 'smallest' one to my experience. maybe i need to make a list of which i have seen / yet to seen. I have travelled overland a lot and always add wildlife to my travel goals - always the most memorable experiences for me.

      Humans being primates doesn’t interest me. What interests me is the reduction of the number of teeth from earliest mammals (44) to the catarrhines (32), the replacement of oestrus with menstruation, the evolution in size and configuration of the brain, and the evolution of a simplex uterus. These are very fascinating things we don’t usually hear about but are what constitute the fundamental physiological differences of various primates from other primates and other mammals, not to mention the obvious reduction in jaw length, increase in cranial volume and the shifts in diet.

    since there is only 2 families of apes, how about you spilt the video up by genus?
    Hylobates
    Hoolock
    Symphalangus
    Nomascus
    Pongo
    Gorilla
    Homo
    Pan
    (I place Pan infront of homo because there is only one species in homo and two species in pan)
    do the same with the old world monkeys.

    Fun story - when I went to the zoo few years ago, I stopped by chimpanzee area to watch them. Some of them were napping while others were monkeying around. But what caught my eye was one chimp who was sitting on the rock and was doing something that looked like he was counting on his fingers. Then, all of a sudden, he stopped and threw his hands in the air and started "counting" again. He kept repeating the same process for a while until he accidentally smacked himself in a face with his hand and then he just gave up. For me, that was a proof that they are our closest relatives, for I have never seen an animal displaying such a human behavior.

      not only we are related to monkeys.
      humans are subset of great apes which are subset of old world monkeys.
      humans are species of apes
      you cant go around that fact unless you deliberately ignore reality.

      Very plausible to be honest. And it doesn’t exclude the notion of God either. See, fossils and molecular science are constantly proving it. But evolution doesn’t explain everything.

      ​@@major_kukri2430, Many people are uninformed and think blacks are more related to chimps than other races are to chimps. But this is obviously false in terms of biological evolution. It's even being made as an excuse to either be racist or to discredit evolution.
      But in actuality, every race is just as human as the other.

  • @KenSoHappyClegg

    Here's a new idea. What if the earliest hominids (say 4, 5, maybe 10 million years ago) were all bipedal all along from Day 1? But we were so violent and deadly due to our bipedalness allowing for handheld weapons to be swung with greater force, we drove all the other primate groups of great apes' ancestry up into the trees for protection where they developed hands and feet for climbing. It's difficult to climb a tree and carry a rock at the same time and we're still working on improving the solutions to that problem to this day. Hominins didnt come down from the trees, we drove the hominids up into the trees.
