The Triassic was full of creatures that look a lot like other, more modern species, even though they’re not closely related at all. The reason for this has to do with how evolution works and with the timing of the Triassic itself: when life was trapped between two mass extinctions.

Yeah fr, that's what I was thinking 🤔
Actually we are currently in the middle of a mass extinction even that we ourselves brought upon the planet with over a million species currently classified as endangered or threatened and since there are only 8 million total species worldwide that have actually been discovered that's roughly 1/8 of all life known to science.
I think the idea is that these two were particularly close together, so the process of adaptive radiation was especially dramatic, and most of the resulting lineages short-lived (therefore, "weird")

I am now picturing phytosaurs and prestosuchus listening to MCR. So thank you for that.
Hey Michael,Vsauce here
This comment here..... I love it.
Usually nature is the reason for mass extinctions, today we are.
If the Triassic is the "just a phase" era, then the Cambrian must be the "dressed self for the first time" era.
Would that make us the "mid life crisis" or the "move out and get a job" stage ?
Like gumboots, a beanie and a tutu on a toddler.
@@zoeeee2952 That's exactly the imagery I had in mind.
@@jacobhargiss3839 Either way, the rest of the solar system looks pretty interesting, better spread there as well.
@Jacob Hargiss I’d say the “move out and get a job” phase would be when mammals took over the world after the dinosaurs died. The midlife crisis is when humans evolved.

Geological time doesn't "have time" for any of us👀😂
Pfft, 20 million years? Nothing. It’s not a proper amount of years until you need to express it in terms of 10 to a two or three digit power. Life expectancy of a supermassive blackhole? About 2*10^100 years.

Who is going to maintain this channel after the next mass extinction? I need updates on when some niches open up.
The Kim Jong-un niche will be first to open up.
I reckon a new breed of thick skinned tall mammals will evolve and create societies, they'll repeat exactly what we're doing and they'll think aliens landed on the moon.
Maybe tierzoo will explain the new meta after the update

Using the Triassic Period as a lesson on evolutionary rates and convergent evolution...Masterpiece!
This video really is masterful in how smoothly it ties together so many major principles and illustrating examples.

Edward Ramirez Convergent evolution doesn't make sense. Neither does macro evolution.
Jarrod Flint hahahaha
The storytelling on this channel is amazing. I´ve never considered natural history to be so exciting. Also the videos seem to find the right balance between artwork, real life footage of contemporary wildlife and showing the scientist doing the narration.
Just what you said.🖒
Yes I agree. It is somewhat of a condemnation of our conventional schooling. Mea Culpa as I was once a high school teacher.
What if the Triassic wasn’t weird the paleontologists just put together the wrong bones.👀
Lol
Are u saying experts are stuped

jethro jr mari hahaha please say you did that on purpose
Plus to answer your question
No not stupid but mistakes can happen
And plus nearly all finds are missing major parts/pieces
And therefore the ‘finds’ tend to be interpreted
So you cannot categorically confirm that every example is 100% correct
Plus you are “stuped”
New hit movie:
Triassic Park
Triassic dino lizard birds!
lol Emilia Clarke did something like that
Someone pointed out that a more apt name for Jurassic Park would be Mostly Cretaceous Park
Mesozoic park? It would be better if it include many dinosaur from different periode so just call it as a whole

Triassic animals: Humans are so weird.
Triassic Animals: Eww, those pinkies keep their genitals outside their bodies, gross!

They’d be more confused by a diurnal creature that cant protect itself from sunlight effectively (most animals besides mammals can produce their own compounds to block UV damage)
They’d also find the concept of sweating bizarre, and of ultra social behavior (even bees and ants didn’t really show up until later)

My 5yo son LOVES Eons and requests it all the time. We have watched every video, some several times. He gave a wonderful summary of the origin of devil's corkscrews, and mourns the greatest ape. He has learned about the asteroid, dust, volcanic gasses, and climate change, but at his age, general and specific are separate things. So he would love to learn when and why the velociraptor went extinct. We would be thrilled to see this answered, perhaps as an example of paleontologists' criteria and methods for determining extinction.
Yunus Wesley I’m glad your son knows about the world!
Okay then. BTW nobody knows y dinosaurs (raptor is a dinosaur) went extinct. Scientists theorize that a meteor or a super volcano wiped them out. Also I'm ten and in fourth grade and I like dinosaurs too

Another example of Americans butchering language, almost stopped watching it was so cringeworthy

Nothing like laying on your bed and expanding your knowledge while being taught set knowledge by the voice of an eloquent angel. Thanks Eons, “The subscribers will remember this”
Educated maybe. Eloquant no she can't even say NICHE properly. Apart from that I enjoy watching these videos as they do educate and broaden my knowledge

"life uh... finds a way"
Please make a video about the development of wings/ the ability to fly :)
peppermintfoxy i concur.
Yes! All of the developments!
Good idea
We're working on it! Well, at least part of it. Stay tuned! (BdeP)
PBS Eons yay!
Please do a video on the divergence of chordates/vertebrates and arthropods, please! I know it'll be a lot of very primitive organisms, but I've always found it fascinating how they went such radically different ways, and why. :D
Enthused Norseman I second this
Wouldn't that separation have happened before arthropods and chordates even developed their distinct morphologies? As we know today arthropods are more closely related to molluscs such as snails and octopuses, as they are both protostomia, while chordata are deuterostomia. We're looking at some relatively incredibly early divergence here where both new groups of animals probably didn't look anything like animals today and hardly showed any morphologies that characterise chordata/vertebrates and arthropods today.
Hildegunst von Mythenmetz do you have any idea such ancient creatures might look like? I find the initial request something almost impossible. I might speculate such creatures to be softbodied swimming animals. And the last time I checked it's hard for such animals to show up in the fossil record.
Enthused Norseman I agree!
Anomaly Sunday Yes they're only rarely if ever fossilised. There are primitive Deuterostomia that basically look like segmented, very primitive fish without any fins that have a mouth at the front and several gills in a row on each side. There were also possibly sessile Deuterostomia with tentacles. Unfortunately I have forgotten their names. Anyway, those are among the most primitive Deuterostomia we know from the early Cambrian and might have shared similarities to the common ancestor of Protostomia and Deuterostomia. But the split must have occured significantly earlier at some time during the Ediacarian possibly, and it's such a basal difference that the animals from that time didn't look like much more than some very very small larvae. Maybe some kind of segmented worm?
Amazingly intuitive video... I really enjoy this channel as it relates to a basic understanding of evolution! Very helpful and the hostess on this video is quite lovely/has a very pleasing tone of voice! Thank you for your content as always!
You are great, guys! Thank you so much for the very informative AND fun videos.
*"WHEN NATURE HITS PUBERTY"*
The examples of convergent evolution make wonder if alien life would really look alien?
I believe that life, if found elsewhere, would look almost exactly the same as that on Earth.
Well, if there has aver been human like soecies before us, or if there will ever be some after us, they will most likely act like we doo. But given the different circumstacnes it csnt be said that they would look the same
Depends how similar their home planet is to earth. Also they might not even be carbon based.
The Raff
This. Although even if not carbon based, complex, macroscopic life would still probably abide by similar principles
Triassic animals didn't seem all that weird to me. DNA-related or not, they functioned in their environment.
this series is a dream come true.... love it .. keep up the good work!!
This was a really nice edition of PBS Eons! Thanks for a great educational experience!
What a great explanation of convergent evolution and adaptive radiation! I've always wondered why eras seem to be marked by sudden bursts of speciation originating from a few phenotypes. So glad I stumbled on this channel, looking forward to watching more videos with my daughter!
Please cover the evolution of blood
Oh man, I've never even thought about this!!! That would be fantastic to learn about...

More than likely the dislike was less about boredom and more about Jesus.
Maybe creationists
Good point.
+Brandon Butterfield, I for one am a religious catholic, but I believe in Darwin's theory of evolution. Just leaving a note for atheists as they usually generalize us religious people as "creationists."
IMGvillaSRC thanks for having some sense. Lol
Drapanausaurus looked a lot like a mixture of new world monkeys and reptiles. The tail made me immediately think of a case of convergent evolution to adapt to life in the trees. Small monkeys have tails with the same adaptation
thanks, I really enjoy your videos and how you guys explain so clearly!
What if the next extinction kills most of the mammals and it’s the insects’ time to flourish. And in the future they will evolve into an intelligent beings.
Awesome! Wow, I majored in genetics, but you explaining things like "lowering competition leads to the filling of vacant niches" makes it soooo much more intuitive. You're great!!
Finally, a video about Triassic animals and early Archosaurs! Something is so fascinating about these animals and how they branch out in the earliest known dinosaurs.
Absolutely incredible. Love it!
Great video, both interesting and educational, thanks for uploading

this was like perfect. writing style, delivery, animation, sound track. i much appreciate the informative nature of this script when compared to the emoji/meme punctuated creations of the other people.
it gave the content the respect it deserved.
This video is gold, I've learnt a lot
6:26 they were also the first species to carve their names in trees
Aren’t WE trapped between two extinctions??
That is technically correct.
Probably, but would it matter?
technically speaking everything that lived after the first extinction event is trapped between two extinctions or a extinction to come.
where in a extinction
I don't think hominids developed as a direct result of a mass extinction (but that would make for a good episode if we did). As for the second extinction, high technology throws a wrench into the works. It gives a species both tools to avoid natural extinction events, and to create extinction events on our own. But ultimately, everything must eventually die... including the universe itself.
So you're telling me evolution exists? My science teacher has a lot of explaining to do
You are being taught creationism? lol
Oh come on. Even the Roman Catholic Church is more reasonable than that these days.
@@mikshin9825 Catholics believe the Bible is allegorical, and religious evolutionary scientists like Lamarck and Mendel predate Darwin.
That anglo protestants are mentally ill doesn't mean religion itself is the problem. A lot of our current understanding of chemistry and math come from medieval muslim scientists and Asian theology rarely interfered with their academics.
Thank you for sharing your insights and your positive energy and hope you know how much I appreciate you 🙏❤️
So when there wil be another mass extinction and human survive, there will be human period where there are:
1. Human fish eater like crocodile
2. Human insect eater
3. Human that eats another human species
4. Human that have wings
5. Human like porpoises
and so on and so on
The fish and the insects will also be human, but yep agreed.
There where more then one line of humanoids. Also we are part of the mammals that took over from the dinosaurs.
To summarise we are to specialized to survive the next extinction.
i don't get why some people disliked the video. i found it really accurate and also answers the question in the title.

I don't know if you guys take recommendation but here's my question : What niche did ancient humans fill and do modern humans have their own niche today?
cobalt1137 We created our own niche of intelligent, tool-using hunter-gatherer. In the Holocene, we had a cultural evolutionary breakthrough (civilization, agriculture) that allowed us to have a population explosion.
There was no humanoid niche being filled over the course of the history of life.
Just wanted to add that until 70 thousand years ago. Until then we where unable to tell and believe the fictions (e.g religion, human rights, nationality and limited liability companies) that bind us together. Until then the largest groups we could get up to was about 100-150 people
Main source: sapiens a brief history of humankind
Ancient humans were generally apex predators through the use of tools. Modern humans break a lot of the "rules" but I guess you could say we are still apex predators through the use of tools, the tools are just much more advanced and effective now
Justin Mishlan
Yeah, no we weren't anywhere near the apex preditor until after we tamed fire.
Magnus Peacock Great book! The author does some talks here on you tube I really enjoyed too. Still not read homo deus yet but it's certainly on the list.
Your narration is perfect love it lol
Wow! She's great! I live in the Hartford Basin, right near the Triassic/Jurassic boundary. This was the Great rift valley of its time.
Yay! its been eons since the last Eons video.
It's been a while since a pun made me both sigh and chuckle a little bit.
Yes, I think last week was the first one the channel missed posting a video.
Lots of information, which I did not know. Despite watching many documentaries.
Extremely compact with lots of information very well put together.
Thank you
Once you start clapping, you never stop. There’s just varying lengths of time between each clap. Kinda like mass extinctions or things evolving into crabs
this makes so much sense, thanks
How have I only discovered this channel now? I've been a subscriber of SciShow and CrashCourse for ages, and I've always had a passion for prehistoric life. Ever since I was a kid, I've been fascinated with dinosaurs and I grew up on Jurassic Park and Walking With Dinosaurs. I'm still very interested in the topic but am kinda out of the loop as for new discoveries and you guys put out such quality content with up-to-date portrayals of dinosaurs and other animals. Love it!
