    Interesting Fact: While Mosasaurus Hoffmani is regarded by many as the Largest Mosasaur, currently it's got some competition. Another Mosasaur; Tylosaurus Proriger, has some staggering estimates of approaching a possible 45ft in length, and closer to approximately 2 tons heavier, at about 14 total. While more studies and research is required to CONFIRM These results, Tylosaurus are commonly found with other mosasaur bones inside their stomachs. They were also epically violent and territorial. Tylosaurus have been found with severed Spinal Chords, bite marks of other Tylosaurs on their skulls, with teeth piercing the brain case, and many other titanic injuries.
    This isn't to say Mosasaurus Hoffmani is any less impressive of a predator, it was incredibly big and powerful. However, Tylosaurus, A Mosasaur discovered some 70-80-ish years ago, is still proving science wrong, and breaking the boundary of the potential of these animals, which we thought we knew for sure.

Mosasaurus Hoffmani, is a HUGE animal but it can reach the speeds of 30mph and can accelerate from 0 - 30mph in just a blink of an eye. How OP is that

    One of the funny things is that while these creatures would've been absolutelty terrifying to have an encounter with, I strongly believe that they wouldn't watch humans as prey. So basically you could swim next to them and be at relative safety (as much as you can be with a wild animal), because to them you'd be so tiny and insignificant, that you'd be nothing more than part of the miriad of fish, not worthy of their attention.

      It’s not that ridiculous, you just model it based on the anatomy of the muscles, then 3D simulations to predict the fastest possible speed it could go. Obviously you can never be 100% sure but it’s not really that weird

    • @MH-ms1dg
      @MH-ms1dg 5 месяцев назад +15

      The main “issue” here is that such simulations are usually kept within the niche literature of the field, and rarely see the light of the public
      Even in the field, such speculations are followed by very meticulous citations
      So, when suddenly presented to the public with such relative confidence, it might come across as exaggerative
      Yes they get paleontologists to talk, but there’s still a huge difference in the public’s conception of “it’s just cool bones” vs all the computer modeling that’s happened in the last 2 decades

      I had read that three studies, Grigoriev, Lingham-Soliar, and Everhart, reported 17-18 m. I understand that these studies are questioned these days, and we think that a more likely size for the Mosasaur Hoffmannii is around 13-14 m.

      Reminder that larger bodies need larger prey.
      Except in the case of filter feeders.
      For a mosasaur to be as big as the Jurassic park one, there would need to be very large prey or it would need to be a filter feeder.
      I don’t see the filter feeder happening [but you never know] and we haven’t found prey large enough for said mosasaur yet.

      Luckily that's why we have the field of biomechanics, to turn static fossilised bones into moving animals. By looking for muscle attachment points and muscle scars on these fossils we can learn a lot about the power of these creatures. From there you can run computer simulations (or physical simulations) to get to things like speed and acceleration of these animals.
