      Thank you so much :D and I didn't mention those as, although they are contenders in terms of length, Sarco and Deino take the cake in terms of weight from our understanding so far

    They were adapted to running on land, swimming in the water, snapping fish, and even chewing plants, cool!

    5:21 - This looks like a phytosaur, rather than a crocodilian.

    Also there are still marsupial carnivores around like quolls and Tasmanian devils from the Dasyuridae, which are all fairly distant to not only Carivora, but all placental mammals.

    You can thank the Tethys Sea being closed by the Indian subcontinent and ocean levels dropping by glaciation for the prolonged Ice House condition of the earth. With less overall water and warmth the environments that allowed for crocodilian diversity crashed. This caused soo many differing families of crocs to fall into extinction. And of course our impact is also partly to blame for their seemingly lack of diversity.

    Taxonomic names are sure paradoxical. This video talks about pseudosuchians, which includes modern crocodilia, yet the name means "false-crocodiles". So crocodiles belong in the false crocodiles group.

    • @daxbashir6232
      @daxbashir6232 4 місяці тому +1

      Not precisely. The "real crocs" rather evolved from the "false crocs".

    I have to wonder about the reproduction rates of the crocodilians dinosaurs... I love in Australia where salt water crocs reign supreme in the tropical North... We loose quite a few American tourists because they believe they are no more dangerous then their alligators and Caymans...
    Here however they are apex predators... Very generous...
    Wee used to hunt them for their skins until we hunted them to almost extinction. However once hunting was stopped, there population re-established themselves very rapidly. In the 20 years in which they have been protected they're numbers have returned to excessive populations... Adults having no natural predators and are only vulnerable during the 5 years in which they are considered juveniles...
    To resolve this problem vendor crucified are very protective of their eggs in their nests and this protection continues after hatching and they will prefer their trying until they become juvenile.... Hatching are only vulnerable to large birds.... In general could we assume similar behaviours from dinosaurs in their protective nature's of their nests, eggs and young or were they left to defend themselves like turtles do.
    Do we know anything about the protective behaviour of female dinosaurs with their young ❓

    This is a bit like saying "Aren't humans amazing because as therapsids we've survived all the major extinctions." Practically all pseudosuchians failed to survive the end-Triassic, most crocodilomorphs failed in the Jurassic or Cretaceous, and all land based ones failed in the Miocene. One small clade of eusuchids survive to the present day. The body plan itself is the only thing that hangs all these species together by a thread.

    You mentioned wall versus a part of carnivores what about and y What do they classify as if not carnivores ? ou mentioned whales or not what about sea lions seals first seals elephant seals et cetera are the considered carnivores even though they're episcopores entirely? What about sea otters Men can see otters in general or mustelids Of any kind coming from weasels and Stoats pole cats and Wolverines? They are also carnivores are they not many of them are insectivores but many of me fresh meat or fish of odors eat fish wolverines eat fresh meat or fresh frozen meat from kills ferrets and weasels stoats herman's otters sea otters Etcetera.

      Carnivorans = members of _Carnivora_ ≠ carnivores = animals that primarily eat meat.
      For a terrestrial example, Tasmanian devils are very aggressive carnivores, but don't belong to Carnivora because they're way over on the marsupial end of Mammalia.
