10,000 years ago of all kinds of titans roamed America, and I mean ALL KINDS, we're talking giant beavers, mammoths, wolves and more... Thankfully for us we no longer have to worry about a not-so friendly Smilodon jumping us while out running, but the same could not be said for the Native Americans, who not only lived alongside them but also managed to thrive.

Why don’t you get to think and make a suggestion creating another RUclips Videos Shows that’s all about the Extinct Prehistoric Amphicyons (Bear Dogs) on the next Extinct Zoo coming up next?!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍👍👍👍👍
I already have a different better browser.
Gojirasaurus quayi of triassic video is coming?
Opera is Chinese spy ware the same as tiktok
@@Roar8384 which one
These videos make me understand why the Native Americans had so many folklores and scary stories. Love it
Bear across the board got smaller, you see alot of smaller bears these days.
looks like everything got smaller, the cats too. I wonder why...
@@john-ic5pzless prey abundance and smaller habitats
@@john-ic5pz Increasing heat. Also, there was about 35% more oxygen 300 million years ago than today which lead to animals evolving to be bigger. When it decreased and climate changed, animals either adapted and evolved to suit the conditions, or they failed and died off. Or were hunted.
They wiped out all these animals you know.....
Modern people: "How did the ancient Native Americans deal with these giant animals?"
Ancient Native Americans: "By killing them, obviously."
Nobody wants to even say the truth: they were all hunted to extinction by natives
...and eating as many as possible...
There is only one race of people, that has never been linked to having a connection with nature without destroying nature and it is the greediest race.
They were the original invasive species...
And domesticating some of them.
Dire Wolf bite marks have been reported on human bones. Whether these humans were hunted or if the wolves dug them out of a grave site is the question
"a dingo ate my baby!!!"
I'd wager it was a fortuitous hunt. I imagine we'd not have buried a peer in a shallow grave so easily accessed by wildlife. or did they happen to do "sky burials", leaving the corpse in the wilds for animals to eat? I don't know the region and era well enough to say...hence the wager. 😁
wdyt?
I think you're going to win this wager
@@john-ic5pz Could have also been a scavenging opportunity. After all, these guys lived in open wilderness with many hazards - a lost/starving hunter, a fall leading to a broken limb, an illness that their immune system couldn't adapt to fast enough, any of these can take a person when on their own before others can get to them. At that point once they're dead and not found by their community the meat's free game for whatever finds it first.
Could be both.
Dire wolves were impressive animals.
There hasnt ever been a recorded killing of a human from a healthy wolf, much like with Orcas. Now the occasional near death wolf that has been kicked out of the pack is a different story.
Every single CGI generated interaction between the Lions and the Gliptadons is freaking hilarious.
Lion: "I just wanna eat you."
Gliptadon: "No!" *retracts even further winthin it's shell*
Lion: "awww, come on!"
"A bite only as strong as a jaguar's"? So... Strong enough to crush a caiman skull
Yeah.. like that's still a pretty powerful bite, being the fifth strongest bite of living animals, and the strongest of any living big cat. A smilodon's bite strenght being on the weaker side is quite a misleading phrasing.
@@lorinctoth9402 living animals is crazy, there's sharks and orcas which can have bite forces bigger than crocs
jags are op but the are plenty of animals with crazier bite forces
Full grown camians solo jaguars
@@IDraw99 Yes, I'm not saying that, I'm saying that a jaguar's bite force is still strong, and not "on the weaker side".
@@SahilK-xx3iylol no
Idk why, but this part of history always interests me
I wanna see how the big cats and the trex looked the most.
Not that long ago in reality
It would be very interesting if the Pleistocene extinctions in the Americas were not as severe as in this timeline!
maybe because it's interesting?
It's not told, the Spanish burned the Aztec books when they colonized. Who knows what knowledge was lost. We're only beginning to piece it together now. Even what we do know the American government will be reluctant to teach in public school as they don't want citizens to sympathize with the victims of their brutal past.
The giraffe lifting up the kid is wild 😂
It happened again 2 weeks ago at the drive thru safari in central Texas.
The giraffe was going for the food but grabbed the toddler.😅
2min video on YT.
I replayed that a few times. To go from family fun to complete panic is pretty funny lol. The dad is like oh shit! 😂
If they looked up in the sky, they would see flocks of Passenger pigeons, the most common bird in North America, that took hours to pass by and were so dense they actually had the same effect as solar eclipses and dimmed the daylight by blocking out the sun. A single rifle shot upwards without even aiming would down 15 or more birds. Imagine the killing rate that it took to drive 5 billion birds to extinction in less than 300 years.
...or to wipe out almost all bison in about two decades.
American Burbon changed flavour due to the loss of the white oak that needed passenger pigeons to spread its seeds.
Weren't nets employed to great effect?
I saw a stuffed passenger pigeon in a museum. It was about the size of a parakeet.
I would rather NOT! Those little birds were gorgeous, and human greed is some bullshit!
Fascinating how the Arctodus Simus recognized Canadian and US borders thousands of years ago
Yeah, referring to the US as America on a science video is lazy. I was confused at first.
There’s an accurate range map on the Wiki article
Yeah it's so bad, it sees the would be US border and teleports to Alaska and Hawai'i. (But honestly it's also funny)
It was Mexican
Yeah. Very good video, but the graphics depicting living areas were really bad. Following not just Canadian and US borders, but state borders too.
Bison basically have a single huge lung, an unusual weakness that was exploited by Natives and settlers alike. A single arrow or bullet would collapse their entire respiratory system and they would drop in just a few steps.
Ah yes. They were all shot… definitely not drove off cliffs in droves by the beloved natives.
@KineticTaco What are you so smug about?
They didn't say all of them were shot, and none were killed in other ways.
Also, your comment about beloved natives is really weird, as in sarcastic. What's your issues with ancient Native Americans? They hunted just like virtually all native people
No, American bison (Bison bison) have both lungs in a single pleural cavity, which is unusual for mammals. This is because bison have an incomplete mediastinum, which is a condition that separates the pleural cavities. This single cavity is called "buffalo chest", and it can be a life-threatening condition.
@@KineticTacothis reeks of racism
@@KineticTaco found the racist guy lol
I’m Native American, Muckleshoot from Washington state. I’m so excited to watch this. My hands go up to you 🙌🏼
What’s your opinion on the term “native american”?
Rather be called Native American or First Nations. Definitely not Indian
@@sidlazzar1002how about Asian immigrant?
@@sapphonymph8204is 12,000 years ago long enough for you pal?
Native Americans aren't Indians.. Native Americans were placed on reservations by the government while Indians owned the land...You even have full blown white Europeans claiming to be native Americans... Stealing the identity of the true indigenous people will cost some greatly in the near future... People are benefitting from all the lies so they don't want the truth to come out
Left out one of the most impressive predators, the American Lion.
Yeah it's pretty crazy the amount of diversity America had then. Cave lions, American cheetah, a whole array of different saber toothed cats, etc., etc.
I did think of the cave lion during the smilodon segment.
Pronghorn antelope evolved to be so fast to outrun the American cheetah which has been extinct for a long time
@@serahloeffelroberts9901 yeah that's a awesome little fact. Pronghorns are so stupid fast. I wish we could have seen what a beast American Cheetah was like. When I was young I was obsessed with cheetahs because of how fast they were. As a kid I was obsessed with trying to be faster than everyone. Then I grew up and learned more about cheetahs and it bums me out. I wish cheetahs weren't so genetically bottlenecked. I wish we could see a more impressive well rounded kind of cheetah. Currently They struggle so much to survive compared to all the other animals around them. It's a bummer how much they are struggling
I was recently at the Labrea Tarpit Museum in Los Angeles. I saw some skeletons of American Lions. Even as a display skeleton you could see how large they were.
It is honestly very impressive, that prehistoric humans managed not only to thrive alongside all those impressive animals but even outcompeted some of them. You would be suprised how much just a sharpened stick and stones can achieve.
Human endurance and team hunting with ranged weapons ( Bow and Atlatl) vs. Well, Anything. I'd bet on the Humans.
You mean you'd be surprised how far human intelligence, ingenuity, mastering of fire, weapon making, language/teamwork, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc....can achieve.
Modern humans, and our close human relatives, have been the dominant species on this planet for nearly 2 million years for a reason. These animals stood NO CHANCE against our prehistoric human ancestors.
Especially a large group of humans armed with pointy sticks.
you left out how these so called "natives" caused the extinction of these animals. so much for that whole "they only took what was needed bs" the leftys spew out lol
@@Highspeedoffset1comet impacts help too
I was not prepared for what an absolute unit the Giant Beaver was
In texas..
They can be quite intimidating and should always be approached with caution.
Beaver is great. Love 'em.
Beavers are still a unit don’t get it twisted, I would rather get chased by a bear instead of a beaver.
Ah yes, Casteroides. A beaver as big as a black bear. Must've been QUITE a sight to behold when they were alive.
Gotta give some major credit to the oral traditions of a lot of these tribes. There are cautionary tales about dangerous creatures told to children to this day that describe these ancient creatures. It's amazing that 10,000+ years of telephone hasn't degraded the original memory much at all.
Oral traditions of murder and genocide of the mega fauna. Something to be very proud of.
One that remains with me are the stories of the Thunderbird.
There actually was a bird as large as the legend says (22 ft. wingspan, I believe), who rode the thermal drafts from South to North America. Which must have been terrifying, especially for parents, hence the stories.
@@eddysgaming9868 PFFT
@sapphonymph8204 pfft yourself, look up extinct giant vultures. I wish this guy had covered them in this video. They were massive.
@@sapphonymph8204all humans killed the megafauna in each continent stop acting as if the we were the only ones!
There is so, so much history and records from native americans (South and North) lost forever...
Humans globally have lost a lot of information, I'd love to know what various cultures were in Africa 50,000 years ago
Records are hard to make when you don't have a written language.
@@dillonhillier yeah.. though there were still a *few* written languages of sorts before contact, notably in hieroglyphic forms in centeral america and (i think) the northeast had a small hieroglyphic system
@@theratgod8194 yeah, glyphs and pictographs in mesoamerica. Not sure about the NE. Regardless, nothing that could keep detailed records.
that’s what happens when colonizers also destroy cultures into extinction, destroy literature and history recorded by those ppl
Last time I was this early, India was still an Island
Iceland is an island.
@@MattiasSvanberg1987some early European Explorers thought India was an Island, hence the joke.
@balung Who thought that India was an island? First time heard this 🤔
I don’t know what’s scarier: The fact that they managed to take down these giant Mammoths or the fact that I’m taller than the America Mastodon
Well, clearly you know what you must do. Find a great club and ride to glory.
Yet it was much heavier than modern elephants.
@@infinitemonkey917 Not as heavy as CaseOh
(Sorry i just had to do it. It was like right there just begging to be turned into a caseoh joke)
@@reigoemon2229 Pretty sure I'm too old to get that.
@@infinitemonkey917 Probably. Everyone just likes making jokes about CaseOh being fat
They also had to take down fully grown buffalo without the use of horses, as they weren't reintroduced to America until Europeans arrived.
Also, it's crazy to think that the great plains once resembled the serengeti with bison instead of wilderbeast.
They would herd them off of cliffs in some cases.
@@jimc4839some? Most.
@@KineticTacoSome, if our ancestors had done that for all hunts there wouldn't have been much left for the next hunting season, and different tribes and individuals had different preferences for hunting bison.
I was thinking of that when dire wolves having a strong bite to take down horses was mentioned.
There were relatives of horses that they killed off. Long before horses were brought from the old world.
I find it interesting as I love this kind of thing, that when you show North American range you stop at the Canadian border then continue once again at Alaska
That's a giant beaver 😂
That's what he said.
you're a giant beaver
@@patsyleeoswald9912dang you beat me to it
Native Americans encounter and witness America's big beasts
Lucky bastards.
And hunted them to extinction.
@@patsyleeoswald9912probably not, they coexisted with them for thousands of years.
Now facing peeslamic beasts.
@@beastmaster0934 I don’t think you would want to open your door to the sight of your friends getting brutally mauled by a Saber Toothed Cat or Dire Wolf
Love that USA-centric map at 11:23. Looks like they knew about the Alaska purchase in advance of the event.
Hawaii pog
I saw a hunter drop a cape buffalo with a compound bow. It flinched when the arrow hit then went back to grazing. Within 10 feet it layed down and passed on. I was MAD impressed 😮
I quit eating meat because of the way the animals are treated. I always questioned how the natives (Earth Honoring) beings did it. You gave me a view, I had not yet imagined. Thank you.
@@edie4321 it was incredible. He was just squatting in some thick brush, he popped up, shot the arrow and squatted right back down. The animal probably felt a bee sting at most, looked around like no big deal and went back to its business. The hunter just sat and waited patiently. It was such a calm process it really felt like the cruelty was taken completely out. That's a master level hunter that everyone at one point strived to become.
@@warmist8197, It sounds amazing, and something I would not imagine, but want to. Thank you for sharing.
he used poison, it's not really that impressive, any semi competent hunter can do it
@@stefthorman8548 no, he did not use poison. The shot was perfectly placed hitting both lungs.
15:34 a few years ago during the construction of the new Mexico City airport, near to was once lake Texcoco, the bones of 480 mammoths were discovered, including 70 full skeletons, many of them with marks of being hunted by humans. Archaeologist also found bones of saberthots, gliptodons, camels, horses and humans.
Holy shit saber thots
6:42 mistake found, the dire wolf didn't out number other animals as the environment just cant support that but instead 1 prey item would be getting chased by a pack of dire wolfs and all would get stuck in the tar that is why there are so many dire wolfs to not dire wolfs in those pits
I think he was talking in relation to other predators granted if so he could have been clearer
Another mistake is pretending the Native Americans taught Europeans how to farm
@@glyptodongaming5629 Europeans didn't know how to grow North American crops. Like maize/corn.
@HungryCats70 it wasn't/ isn't hard to grow & matures quickly, no need to teach anybody
I hate to be that guy, but it's "wolves." The plural of "wolf."
Concluding that there was a huge amount of dire wolfs because way more is found in a tar pit, is really not scientific at all.
Tar pits are traps with often live bait calling out in desperation, that attracts wolfs
What is interesting is that they never found American lions in the tar pits.
@@amicableenmity9820I think American lion has been found in tar pits? Just it is very rare, maybe because the animal itself was rare
Actually jaguars have the most powerful bite force out of all big cats at 1,500 psi and is double that of a tiger
Wrong, that is incorrect. Jaguars only have the strongest bite force pound for pound, not in real life. In real life, their bite force is around 750 pounds, which is still impressive for their size, but lions and tigers have the strongest bite force at over 1000psi
Do you realize how big a tigers mouth is compared to a Jaguar lol. Cmon
Y’all are arguing about this when Jaguar is P4P big cat king. Tiger crush necks to suffocate, Jaguar crushes the skull to get it over with. That tells you everything you need.
Reportedly they can crush a caiman skull with a single bite. That's impressive
@jancyvargheese5351 and when I look it up you're wrong 😂

Can we make a petition for Extinct Zoo to make "Extinct Animals The (insert ancient people of a particular place) Saw" a series.
Were there any magnificent creatures in North America that went extinct sometime notably after the last Ice Age ended? Ngl I wish American Lions and Camels still existed
The horse who evolved in North America also vanished completely, not to return until the Spanish brought the horse back to the continent. Wild horses on the plains undoubtedly were descended from warm blood stock who were bred in desert conditions.
This is already a series and this isn't the first video they made with that exact format.
The only members of the camel family in the Americas who survived were the llama, the alpaca and the wild vicuna in South America.
@@serahloeffelroberts9901 And the guanaco.
@@serahloeffelroberts9901the llama? Fr?😂😂😂😂😂😂 That thing survived all those monsters like creatures 🤦♂️😭
Suggestion for next similar video: Extinct animals the ancient Roman’s saw
And the first group of humans!! Imagine what kind of creatures were running around then 😳
Ancient Egyptians go back farther
I think I saw a video with that exact title. I would like ExtinctZoo to tackle this topic too, as the Roman Empire caused the extinction of some of these said extinct animals
The romans caused the extinction of the atlas lion. So many were used in gladiator fights.
@@darrenshaw6724
There was a plant that was supposed to prevent pregnancy that they wiped out also.
Man I wish for the best to all Natives, they have such amazing history and culture.
"Half a ruler in size" is my new favourite Americans using anything but the metric system 😂
I wish Glyptodonts were still around.
Honestly, they’d probably be hella chill
unless some idiot f’ed with one
They got killed to build housing. 😒
Glyptodonts alongside terror birds and sebecids are some of the few Cenozoic animals that I'd really love to see alive today, they're all so alien when compared to most modern land vertebrates.
You can thank the ancient people for that.
My favourite bit was the kid feeding the girafs. Up ya Go!
😂Love it.
Did you see it happened 2 weeks ago in central Texas?
The giraffe was going for the food but nabbed the toddler.
I saw a giant beaver once. It was big and hairy. Looked unkempt. Smelled of fish. After getting wet, it tried to munch on my wood but a beaver that size has probably destroyed a lot of wood before so I used protection and from my wood, i got it off.
Huh?? There exctinct.
@A_Rainworld_Fan. Actually they're more common than you think. Just gotta know where to look. Even know a woman who did OF in college but is a game warden now. She took me out in the woods at a local reserve and showed me a massive beaver. I couldn't believe how big it was!
Wow great writing the script and also the spot on film editing so well synchronized with your narrative. You should get some kind of award for this! Thank you for such a fine documentary! I never had such a lucid view of what the native North Americans faced in their era. I also never knew 500 people die a year from large cats!
Love your channel! Keep up the great work
I just started the video, so i dont know if it features, but the very concept of a giant sloth breaks my brain. Utterly terrifying. I imagine it like some lovecraftian fiction and not like a thing that existed. Lol
Your vids rock man! As a life-long learner and zoology and archeology buff, I love starting my day with your vids. Rock on brother 🤘🏻
Man I love this video. It takes me back to my childhood when I was fascinated by nature and wildlife. I bought every issue of Funk & Wagnells wildlife encyclopedia and the Time/Life series.
I wish you would've covered the Passenger Pigeon.
The Passenger Pigeon is considered to have been the single most numerous species of bird in North America with flocks numbering in the billions. It is recorded that when they passed over on their annual migration from the northern forest to the south a clear cloudless day would turn to night dark for hours as the innumerable flock would fly overhead raining down guano like a heavy rainstorm. Sadly, its downfall as a species began upon the arrival of European settlers and it went into extinction only 27 years after its scientific classification.
If you want to know more about the Passenger Pigeon highly recommend Allen W. Eckert's "The Silent Sky".
GREAT VIDEO! Your channel feeds my addiction to learning so well. Thank you!
Love your vids dude, keep it up
Where did the natives get the buffalo-taking-down horses from?
Horses that escaped from European explorers, I believe. The horses native to North America had gone extinct some thousands of years earlier.
The Spanish brought horses to the Americas when they first arrived. Those horse became feral, and spread throughout the Americas. But that was roughly 500 years ago. The original horses of the Americas had been extinct thousands of years before European contact.
Suggestion for a next similar video: "Extinct Animals The Ancient Norse Pagan's Saw."
You mean seen? Not saw
Or Mongols saw
Awesome Video! Hope you can do a video on Extinct Animals of Ancient Greece! 😎👍🎬💯
Been waiting so long for this ❤
Not surprising at all that camelops would have been largely avoided as a food item. Camels today are usually not liked as a food item - their meat's allegedly really tough and tastes bad. The main reason why they're used as a domestic animal has more to do with their survivability and use as a pack animal than for food.
True. I never heard of anyone wanting to grill up some camel steaks, but I have heard that camel milk is considered a health food.
@@5riversdeep628 I wouldn't know myself, but from what little I do know of what we consider "health food" it probably wouldn't taste very good.
But why didn't the indigenous people domesticate them as beasts-of-burden?
@@marlonmoncrieffe0728 Likely something they didn't figure out about doing yet, not to mention it would have required certain tools and an excess of food. Part of what made animal husbandry possible was basic agriculture and the ability to store food that wasn't needed to feed people/their families. It's usually assumed that up until after the passing of the ice age the prehistoric Native Americans were largely hunter-gatherers. By then most of the big megafauna would have died out, including the stuff we normally associate with animal domestication like camels and horses.
Um no, camels have quite good meat, and are eaten with appetite in their native range.
13:48 “Suffered from island dwarfism" makes it sound like it had a disability, when in truth, it was an adaptation that enabled it to survive and thrive in its insular environment.
Good point
Then he should've said, it benefitted from island dwarfism
Excellent video! I particularly love the size comparisons, those always help (and yeah, I saw 'Justin Bieber' on the beaver chart!)
I've been to one of the mammoth-kill sites, the Murray Springs Clovis archaeological site in Sierra Vista AZ-- it's between my home and Tombstone, so I and a couple of friends went on one of the Friends of the San Pedro guided walks and got to listen to a local archaeologist explain the whole thing, show us the black mat and soforth. Pretty impressive, and all that area is open range with the rare small house-- you can look out there from my friends' home in Sierra Vista AZ and just imagine mammoths meandering across the landscape. We were allowed to examine some actual Clovis points, too, and one replica of a bone shaft-straightener from the period of the kill site; I do a little knapping myself, and those points were *amazingly* made-- way past my skill level.
I live for videos like this. Thank you!
Makes me wish there was a show or movie based around this time
It would be thoroughly bastardized with copious amounts of Political Correctness… Wokeism and CGI. It’s what Gen-Z demands these days…
I'd watch that
I just spent an embarrassing amount of time trying to pronounce parapropalaeheplophorus! Bruh who named this!!? 🤯 😂
Keep these videos up man
Man this has to be one of my favourite channels on YT. I could literally watch paleo-art on repeat all day.
I dive in a lot of rivers and beavers are a true fear of mine. They are very territorial and if the giant one still existed, I don’t think I would go into any slow moving body of freshwater
My hat goes off to the Native Americans tribes who had encountered the Short-faced bear 🐻 😵💫😵💫
My mom is Cherokee! Most of the time I'm just like my Scottish dad....but when life is difficult or I face opposition that's when I realize there's a strength in me that comes from the things she's taught me through the years. Thanks for posting this video. We're not forgotten and our history is not forgotten. ❤
Great video! I really liked the casteroides segment. You might be interested to know that a paracamelus tibia was found in Ellesmere Island in the high arctic of Canada - suggesting they had a wider range. There's an article in The Conversation about it from March fifth 2013 online with a link to the study.
Pt 2 should definitely include the American lion and the American cheetah
Can't forget the American rhinocheraus

Different European groups had different names for trolls and fairies. Doesn't make them any more real.
@@ckkjgc I’m not talking trolls and fairies. Weird strawman argument. Lil weirdo
@@ckkjgc where did I say it was real? I just said certain figures bear striking similarities in cultures. Even those creatures you speak of were shared across Europe, trolls and such.

Sabe(sawbay) is the name us Ojibwa gave the Sasquatch. Way before colonial contact.
How I wish I can see these creatures for just one day.

I really hope we start seeing a bunch of things that cover the Pleistocene era. It's fascinating to learn what things lived during that era. The biodiversity was insane then
Thank you for making this! The more I learn about my ancestors, the more I find that they were badasses and surely among the wisest on the planet 🙌
For some reason I was distracted when the giraffe lifted the kid
Very well-done video. I especially appreciate the real human narration instead of the annoying machine narration that so many channels use now. Good job!
love the vids bro
kudos to whoever named Smilodon, considering the big toothy grin it must've had 😁
the ridges on the beaver's teeth would technically make a higher pressure on the wood, making the cutting more efficient... penetrating the top layer(s) of wood easier at least, the edge then peels the wood along the grain and incises the far end of the piece it's biting off?
ahh logic....coming to (possibly) the wrong conclusion, but with confidence!! 🤭
11:21 what, were they allergic to Canada?
my dumb dyslexic ass saw Tremarctinae on the screen and i was like "holy shit Mark Tremonti from Creed has a bear clade named after him"
A jaguar is bite is actually very strong. It can get through a Caymans hide as well as punch through tortoise shell. For pound it’s actually the strongest bite of any big cat alive currently
Seen a couple dead humans in Brazil on bestgore bitten straight through the skull. Like a hydraulic machine had done it. Amazingly strong
I have something in common with these ancient natives. I was born in the late 1900s (1992) and I have seen the homo sapiens with common sense go extinct.
All jokes aside the thought of a Kodiak bear sized big cat with swords for teeth leaping 12 feet in the air. Gives me anxiety.
i am a glyptotherium.. yes, we're still here 🙄
It’s amazing that no giant mammals ever lived north of the modern border with Canada except the few that magically existed within the confines of Alaska and only therein.

I think we had a wooly mammoth skeleton at my college that was found nearby. I remember it reached the second floor of the building. Pretty neat.
Man I love this video. It takes me back to my childhood when I was fascinated by nature and wildlife. I bought every issue of Funk & Wagnells wildlife encyclopedia and the Time/Life series.
I wish you would've covered the Passenger Pigeon.
The Passenger Pigeon is considered to have been the single most numerous species of bird in North America flocks numbering in the billions. It is recorded that when they passed over on their annual migration from the northern forest to the south a clear cloudless sunny day would turn to night for hours as the innumerable flock would fly overhead raining down guano like a heavy rainstorm. Sadly, its downfall as a species began upon the arrival of European settlers and it went into extinction only 27 years of its scientific classification.
If you want to know more about the Passenger Pigeon highly recommend Allen W. Eckert's "The Silent Sky".
using my wicked time travel powers to create Native American cataphracts and mammoth archer units
How good are you at blacksmithing? Would have to teach them that, could also introduce them the wheel and written language while you're at it 😂😂😂
@@dillonhillier I read the Iroquois had wooden armor, I was thinking wicker baskets and shields
@@dillonhilliernatives had black smithing and the wheel. Both of which just weren’t used as much because they weren’t needed. And meso-natives had writing systems before colonization.
@@johnrey1001 I know atleast the Inca didn't have the wheel or Aztecs I believe, cause they were lugging stones to build their cities on the backs of their men. If they didn't have it I doubt the natives in North America would have it
@@geechyguy3441 no they did. They’ve been found on many toys. You can google them. Wheels just weren’t used as much .
What’s the species name of the prey animal at 10:31?
Toxodon, distant & extinct relative of horses!!!
It is also classified as a hippo like-mammal
@@aleksandarvil5718 I figured it was a relative of horses haha and thank you!
Absolutely amazing
If only we could go back in time to see this
A jaguar has a weak chomp? Excuse you?
This guy has a lot very wrong
You caught that too. Ha!
From which documentaries are scenes ?!
Bbc walking with dinosaurs / mega fauna.
Imagine being savaged to death by a ferocious giant beaver. Gives me the shudders.
Pygmy Mammoth is one of my favorite oxymorons. I also wish that you covered ground sloths because they are so different from their current relatives.
Shoutout to Opera. Been using it for over 15 years. I enjoyed the video and just subbed.
I’m sorry but why is peoples information about the land bridge never updated, we did not come across the land bridge, the New Mexican footprints proved that already. We did not arrive here 30 thousand years ago in fact it’s seemingly much farther back than that.
Glyptotherium: Looks like Ankylosaurus
My ass: That is a Turtle, Your Honor
Great video! Quite lucky to not have been born in prehistoric America 😅 kudos to my ancestors for going through it for me to be here today.
Man… why did all the cool shit have to go extinct
Because cool animals are usually either dangerous or tasty and humans hunt both of those.
