    A real life water dragon.
    I bet these creatures were one of the most beautiful things to ever live 🥹

      Why is he wearing caterpillars on his forehead though?

      So I'm not the only one who sees the resemblance. It's like he decided his passion was Dinosauria rather than 40k.
      Love the channel mate, keep doing you.

    What an awesome Latin/Greek technical name to receive!!!! 4:42 IRRITATOR!!! Oh man, that's what my mom, my dad, my ex-boyfriends and my husband would call me. Plus some of my ex-employers. (only the female ones, the male ones weren't so harsh)
    I have a distinct impression, based on the shape of the head and the shape of the feeties as well as the spines/sails themselves, that these critters waded sometimes in very swampy areas, perhaps eating small crabs and shrips or mussels and oysters and using their "sails" as a literal sail, or something that stabilized them as they probed around in the mushy sandy bottom or poked their snouts into the holes eel-like slimy things could be found....maybe the currents of the tides rushing in and out of the inland seas, (I visualize them as everglade-like or mangrove swamps with brackish water) helped their sails to stabilize them as the tides swooshed in and out.....and those big flat tails.....they'd help them keep them in place.... whaddaya think? Or is this old news?

    I'd like to see this kinda video on Megalosaurids and the basalmost Megalosauroids

    Funny thing, I figured out what Suchomimus's name meant because of the names of two other ancient creatures (saying that for the sarcosuchus). I remembered GalliMIMUS meant "Chicken *_mimic",_* and that SarcoSUCHUS was an ancient *_crocodilian,_* so I figured that Suchomimus's name meant *_"Crocodile mimic",_* and I was right.

    Here’s my take on Spinosaurine hunting tactics: they use their body to create a fish trap.
    The Spinosaurine wades into shallow waters of a riverbed or shoreline. They settle down into the water, curling their body and tail to create a “C” like shape. Their neck is kept in a tight S-curved arch, the tip of their snout still in the water. There they wait. Fish get used to the animal as it sits silently, and forget it is there. All they see is a shelter from the more swiftly moving waters. The tip of the Spinosaurine’s snout, potentially capable of sensing bioelectric signals or at least the movement of larger fish, informs the hunter when a large enough fish wanders into its trap. The powerful neck then lunges forward and the jaws snap down onto the fish.

    I would like to add to your hypothesis about the aquatic nature of Spinosaurs. They may have had similar hunting to strategies to that of crocomorphs. Maybe the convergent evolution of jaw structures between Spinos and Crocs were more than bone-deep. Maybe Spinos hunted non-fish animals by drowning them first. Their arms certainly could have helped in that department.

    So Spinosaurus couldn't take out a T-Rex in a one on one fight? Yah right, next you'll say Velociraptors aren't big featherless door openers!

    Here’s an interesting dinosaur to learn about; Isaberrysaura, possibly the only Stegosaur from South America that might also have evidence for an omnivorous diet.

    Could you make a video on Irritator? Also, Oxalaia was named after a yoruba deity, Oxalá (pronounced like Oh-Sha-Lah). I've seen some people question its validity as a genus and suggesting they are an overseas spinosaurus

    Thank you for a fantastic video I have a question do we know when the spine in Spinosaurus started to evolve because if you look at other members of the group you can see what looks like the begin of the spine growing up

    "Irritator"? How'd they name it?

    • @chaipanzu
      @chaipanzu 9 місяців тому +3

      apparently it’s named so bcz scientists were *irritated* when they purchased a skull of irritator that was artificially elongated

    • @therealwildboar1007
      @therealwildboar1007 9 місяців тому +1

      As far as I am aware, the backstory to this one is that the skull that originally formed the holotype was artificially modified by an amateur fossil dealer to appear like a pterasaur skull. Paleontologists spent a long time going back and forth, trying to figure out exactly what this creature was before eventually they realized it was a Spinosaurid. Understandably the whole process was rather irritating for the paleontologists involved, hence the name they coined.

    One thing u didnt mention was the study that showed the shortened spino legs could only hold up 1.5 tonnes.... so it may not have the short legs, just like how it may have not swam.
    The short legs may have belonged to a smaller species, with a similar spine.

    Why does everyone say Spinosaurid skulls resemble crocodilian skulls? Most crocodilians have broad, shallow skulls, and even the piscivorous species with narrow snouts have shallow skulls that flare fairly dramatically towards the base. Spinosaurid skulls are fairly narrow, and are proportionally deeper than crocodilian skulls. I really don’t see much resemblance beyond both being elongated and generally archosaurian. And the teeth, those aren’t dissimilar.

    I hate the fact that this is the only dino video and it's about Spinosaurs. I wish this thing would go away till a more complete fossil is found of an actual aegypticus
