I find it odd that the accompanying book, The Complete Guide of Prehistoric Life, identifies the gorgonopsid as Gorgonops, despite the fact that the time and location clearly fit with Inostrancevia.
@@Mikailodon Gorgonopsid is actually the generalized genus name while inostrancevia is the species name. its actually really common when talking about indeterminate species like this one, that was by 2005 only vaguely described so its named after the general genus name of Gorgonopsid
@Ewan Callister WWM doesn't really get it wrong gorgonopsid describes the entire Gorgonopsia clade, the animals are Inostrancevia which matches the provided size
@@MikailodonIt’s size in the doc is actually the same as the earlier synapsid Anteosaurus which was part of the Dinocephalians and lived during the mid Permian. The Dinocephalians extinction seems to coincide with the Gorgonopsids and Therocephalians becoming apex predators.
This is very intresting, however, both animals seem to have very modern vocal tracts! Remember, these were creatures a quarter-of-a-billion-years out of time. Could Inostrancevia run like a modern animal? Did it really hunt like a modern animal? Is Inostrancevia really as capable as a modern carnivore?
@@maxmcqueen1196 You don't know, you don't know and you don't know. Despite you bringing up dinosaurs, whose heyday was as far after this creature existed as we are after the dinosaurs, you just don't know how sophisticated these creatures were.
@curiousuranus810 We do, we do, we do. We have evidence of social behaviour in fossilised bone beds containing animals which all died together, fossilised trackways that can help us determine the speed of any one particular animal, carnivorous comprolites containing the bone and skin material of other animals, I can go on. The distance in time between us and a particular epoch is irrelevant. We can make very good assumptions and inferences based on existing evidence, of which there is plenty. And despite what the media has often falsely purported, we actually have a very good idea of what Earth's ecosystems would have looked like even hundreds of millions of years ago.
@@curiousuranus810 When making exceptional claims, one must have exceptional evidence. If one does not, then the claim is likely not true. If you are suggesting that they moved in ways unlike modern animals, then you need evidence that they would do so or be unable to move in the more familiar ways of modern animals.
I love the design of gorgonopsid in this documentary

I absolutely loved that book as a kid, still do despise the inaccuracies.
Before dinosaur came this was the best creature of the period
I bet most definitely theirs a bigger gorgonopsian who’s fossil just hasn’t been found
Which period?
@@siats142the late Permian, which is the last Epoch/ Time Period of the Paleozoic.
1:11 EYY who draw the lake like that 💀
That a watering hole and yea adult jokes are common in tv shows, and even documentaries like this one has a watering hole that look like this.
I love that heeee sound effect
I love the brown color of him/her

Evolution from Dimetrodon
I think its a bit oversized compared to dimetrodon in start since beacuse of the Sail dimetrodon should be bigger in height
@Ewan Callister yeah its size is like less inostrancevia and more arctodus height
The "Gorgonops" (actually Inostrancevia even though called a Gorgonops which is stupid) is said to be 5 meters long when it’s actually 3.5 meters

Yes, yes, and yes. Despite how alien the snyapsids and dinosaurs would be to us, they filled the exact ecology niches that modern animals do.
