I really appreciate how you avoid sensationalizing, and rather stress the incremental, investigatory, hypothetical nature of science. Bombast is so tiresome. Thanks!
Superb as always. I enjoy the short-form and focused videos too, but I can't think of anyone else who does this kind of tour of current research, and it never fails to be interesting.
I really appreciate the work you do on these videos. I remember when we had infants and the time they required so I understand some of what you are going through. Hang in there and thanks
Finally got to the end of this. As always very informative. Especially enjoyed seeing the rubber boa mentioned. Occasionally see them here in western Oregon.
I've only found a couple. They are so different from garter snakes since they are so calm and don't run away. The book I refer says they can live up to 50 years. I have thought that maintaining the right temps would make it hard to keep as a pet.
It's so cool that these three children were able to find a T. rex. Imagine being 10 years old and finding one of the most awe-inspiring dinosaurs of all time. Is there more to this find, though? Naturally, my mind can't help but think of Nanotyrannus. What is it about this newest Tyrannosaurus specimen, estimated at 12-14 years old, that sets it apart from the previous 13 and 15 year old specimens of Nanotyrannus? Is this the museum taking a stance on Nanotyrannus being a synonym? Is there actually something different from the Nanotyrannus specimens? Does this specimen offer any clues to settle this debate? I would guess these questions are in the process of being looked into but is there anything yet?
Lots of places. Some we had made as tests so that we can hopefully start selling them soon, others have come from museums, or even common stores like Old Navy or Target.
@RaptorChatter thanks for the correction, i honestly couldn't tell since I watch on my phone passively at work. thanks again for the reply, I would look forward to whatever designs you put in your store and will keep a close eye in the future.
During the 17th to 19th centuries, we were told that our world was no older than a few thousand years, and that God populated it with the same immutable creatures we all know today (dogs, cats, elephants, rhinos, cattle, birds, pigs, horses, whales,, etc.), all that is about to change: it’s the beginning of paleontology. Willam Buckland notoriously tried to make sense of the biblical dogma to the new scientific revelations, he theorized that the antediluvian creatures Mary Anning and Gideon Mantell unearthed were probably punished by God in a series of catastrophes, due to their apparent grotesque and violent nature, the Deluge being the ultimate one. The first dinosaur was discovered, called “Megalosaurus”, alongside another dinosaur called the “Iguanodon”. The reconstructions of the Megalosaurus and Iguanodon have changed over the years.

Great to see your grand return! I can imagine these review videos take a long time to make so it's understandable

Oh, it’s great to see the Parvosuchus here! Cheers!
best notification of the day
awesome! all the best
As usual absolutely brilliant. The series in my opinion is educational. And en joyable to watch
Always enjoy your monthly digests!
Marcianosuchus' skull looks suspiciously like that of Euparkeria.
I'll say it again:
The most underrated paleo-channel on RUclips.

I thought about getting one when I was looking into getting a snake, but their long hibernation kept me away from them. Still love them though

Congrats on the baby! Thanks for the update!
Quickly becoming my favourite paleo channel!
Another pog video
I just love this video series!
We all miss these monthly updates.
Thank you!
Yay, you didn’t go extinct!
YAY!
purring alligator! yay!
Hey @raptorchatter. Where did you get that sweet allosaurus print?
The visitor's center at Dinosaur National Monument!
So many papers. Very great news for palaeontology , even if not for your work load

These videos give me life! Thanks for keeping on!
@raptorchatter, where do you get all of your paleoshirts?
Lots of places. Some we had made as tests so that we can hopefully start selling them soon, others have come from museums, or even common stores like Old Navy or Target.
@RaptorChatter I appreciate the reply. How about more specifically the Anomalocaris(??) Print button up you've worn a couple times?
They're eurypterids, and that is one of the test ones, we really need more time in the day to get the site for selling ones like that up.

Ediacaran👍 Just Lagerstätte to go now!
Commenting for algorithm.
Doesn't work anymore :/
