My Dinocrocuta arrived today and wow what a huge skull! Well worth the price. A nice piece to add to my collection and its going to make for a nice paleo education vid I'll be making soon.
Hey, bud. Great stuff (3:09 - 3:11 was my favorite part). It's good to see you doing so well, and able to pursue this passion I know you've had since.... well, always. Keep doing your thing.
My mind is blown, I love this stuff!!! By the way, I have a 3D printed, full sized Saber toothed tiger that I ordered on Amazon on the way, I cannot wait!!
Great information and i like your toughts on sociality comparisons, only thing is brown hyeans live in family groups almost like wolf packs and striped hyenas live in smaller family groups.
You may or may not know this but the word 'crocuta' has evolved a lot - from Greek 'krokotas', meaning a strange beast that could mimic human speech (probably the spotted hyena and it's laugh) up to the French 'croquer' - as in to crunch or snap. Nowadays in French 'croquer' also means 'to snack' or 'to nibble' but looking at that beast, well, it would deal with you Sergei, at 1.67 metres I believe you said, in about a bite and a half.
I wonder which animal has the stronger bite force the short face bear or this animal and I always want to know how much bite force do these animals have
@@saturatedcranium Crocuta is the genus name of the spotted hyena, but it's derived from crocotta, which was a mythological (you could say cryptozoological, at the time) animal that almost certainly described the striped hyena. I don't think the root of the word crocotta itself is known. So, Dinocrocuta gigantea means "giant terrible hyena".
And some people still think, that a Kangal dog might beat a hyena! Nonsense! If modern day spotted hyenas are stronger than domestic dogs, then imagine what this Dinocrocuta would have done to a Kangal ☠☠!!
Infinit Soldier absolutely. The ratio of how many animals are against eachother matters too. A single hyena vs a pack of strong dogs would be in trouble because dogs are more nimble and agile. But in terms of brute strength hyenas are vastly superior and Dinocrocuta wold have made a snack out of any silly canid that would get close. Thank you!
dinocrocuta is aloy biger heavier kangal no Chance but with spotted hyena at similkar weight let assume 75 kg in fight 1 on 1 kangal can win if good avoid hyena teeth and reac hyena throat it can choke hyena to death what kangall really like to do with other dog etc if kangal reach hyena thropat and good setup ots teeth and jaws on it hyena have no other weapon like big cat =powerfoul big sharp claws to effective depend itself from kangal ...so kangal can win sometimes this that it didint hapen most of the time is diffrent story but defenitely not imposiiblke in this case i quess kangal at parity in fight 1 on 1 can win 2 out of 10 fight with spotted hyena .
I love how it seems that he has to continuously reaffirm to himself that the D. gigantea skull actually exists and is actually the size that it is.
I'm continuously trying to convince myself it existed...!
I get a kick for the appreciation you have for this field of study.

Love Hyenas ( all Hyenas ) my favorite animals ! Unlike most, I first started loving them after watching The Lion King lol !
Finally purchased a Dinocrocuta skull!!!! Soooo excited when it comes in the mail and open that box up!!!!
a video about megalictis, the giant mustelid would be very nice too!

Indeed, some things words just can’t describe. Wooden tit, be nice!
Be prepared. ;
@@smerjeevski what's the size of this huge hyena?
@@jimross4951 ths one is 37cm theres an even bigger specimen which is 45 cm
Just imagine a live one running straight towards you 😳😳
This video is absolutely well done

That's awesome. Could you do one on Bears and Big Cats? That would be cool too.
Hai Luu, thank you! I plan to do just that. :)
Nice vid you earned a new subscriber
Incredible specimen! Where'd you get it from? and what is the Evolution book you have on your desk there, the black book - who are the authors?
That thing really is a monster...

Did they compete with machaioroidus?! Right

More prehistoric mammal skull vids please!!!!
Awesome dino crocutalike a dog skull
Mind blowing

Dinocrocuta would have the much larger bite force without a doubt.
@@VegasRT500 but the Tyrannosaurus rex had the strongest bite force of any land animal ever.
Pozz gdje si u madjarskoj , posjetio bih taj muzej
Awesome 👍👍
What is the psi bite force of this animal?
Gaston Design replica?
Maybe we can selectively breed modern hyenas to resemble that monster
Is the skull a Hyenadon?
Is dinocrocuta latin for demon puppy?
"Dino" means terrible in Latin, not sure about the second part though

That hyena, could kill a male lion so easily!
Jezuz! Imagine that Hyena roaming around in Africa, would extinct all Lions.
YES
You might want to look into a thylacoleo. Just for fun
wait till you cover a skull of paraentelodont, an animal who Lived Alongside Paraceratherium
Wow
It also looks a bit like a mastiff just way bigger
Yk I rlly loves wolves but I think I gotta learn more towards hyenas bro 😖😂
i miss them

Dinocrocuta would have been larger than a polar bear but with a much greater bite force and also quicker.
It could bite through bones like potato chips.
The word epitome is pronounced e-pit-o-me
Look like gaster blaster lol
The T.Rex of Mammals, period!
Inaccurate comparison
