The fact that Sparta was curled around herself is heartbreaking enough. In modern cats, curling up like this for unusually long periods of time suggest that they're hurting internally and don't want anything to hurt them worst. Her last moments were filled with pain, fear, and sadness, and I think that's heartbreaking.
Great observation. The sad fact most are infants. The other cub was most likely crushed by a mud slide as same age but different conditions. A Interesting point. Sparta. Spirit of a warrior is fitting even more now
There's a national geographic article about a baby mammoth they found, talking about it falling into some mud and dying and it's mom being sad and it makes me cry every time I read it 😢
@@markmiller6402 They don't really know; it's just a dramatization. However, modern elephants do seem to mourn for their children and fellow herd members, so it is plausible that there was some sadness involved
There's actually another video that goes into more detail about Boris and Sparta. The two cubs, both found in the same area but one was 15000 years older that they named Boris (the younger was Sparta) in that exact position. Both died from injuries that were reminiscent of being crushed by a landslide or debris meaning they were most likely asleep and were crushed to death before they even knew what happened.
The Long ago man segment was very touching. I can only imagine somebody contacting me and telling me they had discovered, and were in temporary possession of, the body of an ancestor of mine, who had lived 500 to 600 years ago. Sounds like it was handled considerately and respectfully.
My favorite was the man found in British Columbia and a DNA match was found for him amongst his family. How very beautiful! Thank you so much for your show and content, very interesting Ben! Listening from Georgia USA.
*More incredible is that it looked like it died while drowning - that's why its lips are outstretched - it was likely inside a cave that was filling up with flood-waters and stretched out its mouth toward the ceiling of the cave at the last seconds, trying to breathe.* *That's why the mother and cub were found frozen in ice millennia later - the cub is curled up and looks like it's sleeping - an indicator that it drowned quickly while the cave was flooding and its mother was struggling to stay alive.*
The length of time between the deaths of those cave lion cubs really puts into perspective how little time it has taken for us as a species to make modern advances. 18,000 years is just incomprehensible to me
Please continue this type of series. Perhaps do a five most interesting human ancestors remains (there have been some utterly fascinating finds deep below ground in cave systems in South Africa) or five most amazing discoveries pulled from the La Brea tar pits.

Why not both? Especially in the case of animals in whose extinction humans were involved, extinction is arbitrary, which makes it equally arbitrary to leave them extinct when you have the opportunity to bring them back. Even animals and plants alive today are linked to extinct ones through ages of co-evolution. Redwood trees, for example, only became as large as they are because of selection pressure from extinct sauropods, while other plants depend on already extinct animals for effective survival. Animals such as elephants in South America or the dodo would help plants still alive today to spread their seeds as they once did. Some organisms simply go extinct gradually when key conditions are suddenly lacking. The extinction at the end of the Cretaceous period also killed off many living beings later on, when the actual event was already over. In other words, our past actions continue to cause extinctions, even if we no longer cause them directly. We have inflicted many wounds on life on Earth, and we should tend to as many as possible, not just one kind of wound. Advances in cloning technology, essential for the return of extinct species, also help us with endangered species, such as the black-footed ferret, which would be much worse off without cloning.

Hey! I'm so happy to see my ancestor in this video (Kwäday Dan Ts'inchi)! I first discovered he was my ancestor back in 2007, when I was 7 years old and my grandma showed a news clip of my auntie being interviewed by some news organization about the discovery. I also just wanted to say that I love your content and keep up the amazing work!
don't you creeps EVER feel shame? about stealing the past of other previous races who your real ancestors destroyed and whose advanced cultures they destroyed like the primitive scourge they were?
thank you so much for talking about Kwäday Dän Ts'ìnchi! as a studying biologist i'm always so delighted when people talk about some of the more ethical discoveries and experiments because a lot of what we know today we learned about in horrific ways. it reminds me of the strives we have made in this field of study and the bright future ahead
I especially like that those who discovered and studied this ancient man gave him and his decendants so much respect. I'm much happier about the discovery knowing that the man was laid to rest and not put on display somewhere far from his home.
@@jps101574 i dont think theres really nothing else we could have done with it anyways, a year was something the researchers agreed on and we have to trust its enough; to be fair i believe inevitably some people would have tried to acquire it and put it up for display like some kind of entertainment object In the end what matters the most is the people that are alive today, and i think their wishes matter way more than what we would have gained over being able to see the corpse in a case of glass irl And im sure we will find many more in the future too!

It's also sad to think what his living family members must have felt after his sudden dissappearance
This is the best channel! I seriously only think pbs gets anywhere close and they still fall short. David Attenborough level of narration here, be proud of what you've built.
"I don't know, perhaps we should maybe instead put money into preserving the lions that are currently being driven extinct before thinking about reviving the dead" Totally agree with you there Ben.
"Long ago person" 18 years old, healthy, born and raised on the coast, and walked 100km on foot towards a new tribe. Sounds like a young man looking for love. That's my guess.
This kind of thing gives me the perspective of how insignificant the human life is in face of time. From now to 50.000 years in the future everything that we consider so important on a day by day basis will mean nothing.
That's one way to look at it. Another way would be to say that everything we do influences the next action (or reaction) and in 50,000 years that could equal to a massive event. It's like two straight lines running parallel. One line begins to turn just slightly, barely enough to be noticed at the time, but the more time that passes, the more pronounced the gap is between the two lines.
Global warming pro: Ice is melting revealing strange creatures Global warming con: There would be no ice to preserve the strangest creature of them all

@Timothy Barron It's a cultural tradition for those people and has been for a very long time. As a part of that culture, the people who are cremated are done so to not cause offence.
@@ActualLiteralKyle Since the dude was centuries old (as opposed to millennia), I have to agree with you. It's whatever his living family members want to do. If a body is found that is from the ice age or prior however, to cremate that seems criminal... a huge waste of potential knowledge. It shouldn't be allowed to happen. That being said, I don't know that it's actually ever been done to a body found that was from the last ice age.
All the applause for your coverage of Kwäday Dän Ts'ìnchi, it was both thorough and respectful. We don't often hear about collaboration between First Nations and institutions/governments that turn a net positive for both parties. Also, interesting to see a story which neatly divides the science from the spectacle we're so used to being presented with these days. Good to know we can still discover things without causing a scene (looking at u, scientist sitting on the mammoth cube lol)
The mammoth isn't bad, the cube on the other hand? Baaaad news buddy, it's one nasty cube you wouldn't wanna mess with! You know what I heard? I heard the cube steals candy from itsy-bitsy tiny kids, and regularly kick little old ladies with blue hair, straight in the shins! And also mock their small dogs, and once the cube took a dump down its neighbor's chimney. The mammoth just happens to be stuck in the cube, but the cube was a real piece of work long before the mammoth got stuck. Have you ever seen the comedy series Father Ted, about that Irish priest? Yeah, the cube is the equivalent of Father Fintan Stack - rude, obnoxious, mean, and generally just a real bastard. Father Jack Hackett seems polite, empathic, and considerate in comparison. So, there you have it.
A shame they wouldn't even allow pictures of the "long-ago-person", it would be very interesting to see what he might've looked like in life had they been allowed to study him further.
@@austinhinton3944 Yeah, I kind of agree. I get that people want to preserve their cultural heritage, but this person lived so long ago it's hard to even argue that he's even from the same culture. I certainly don't live in the same culture as existed here 550 years ago.
Let see how many live an echo chamber? Let's look at the missing links of the scientific community. Nearly all experts agree “Lucy” was just a 3-foot-tall chimpanzee. Heidelberg Man. Built from the from a jawbone that was conceded by many to be quite human. Nebraska Man. Scientifically built up from one tooth later found to be a tooth of an extinct pig. Piltdown Man. The jawbone turned out to be belonged to a modern ape. Peking Man. Supposedly 500,000 years old, but all evidence has been disproved. Neanderthal Man. At the international Congress of zoology 1958 doctor A.J.E cave said his examination showed that this famous skeleton found in Germany over 50 years ago is that of an old man who suffered from arthritis. New Guinea man dates back to 1970. this species had been found in the region just North of Australia CRO-magnum man one of the earliest and best-established fossils is at least equal in physique and brain capacity to modern man. So, what's the difference? Modern man. This genius thinks we came from monkeys. Evolutionists have plenty of species, but they have never found different kinds, never, nor any transitional stages of one kind to another. Out of The Top 10 Most Intelligent People in The World: At Least 8 Think God Exists And 6 are Believing Christians. Not to mention of the past. BYTW It's a younger earth than is reported. It only thing that makes sense. According to evolutionism we had two ice ages, meteorite destruction of the earth and endless time. And yet we find animals preserved in perfect condition.
Antartica split up from pangea before most of theese creatures existed, and all these creatures were native to the russian steppe. If we do find creatures in the antartic they will most likely be birds or a now extinct incect
@@tobiaschaparro2372 You should be happy to know that in the past, Antarctica had extensive forests and was a bridge with which marsupials got to Australia from South America. There is probably a lot more penguins to be dug out in New Zealand than Antarctica, as they evolved there.
@@Idntgt exactly. there could be strange creatures buried in the ice that we have yet to find any specimens of. yet another pro to global warming that i have found.
It is interesting as to what they will continue to find as the Earth keeps warming and the ice melts further. Some scientists worry that ancient viruses that can survive when frozen will also come back though. That could be scary for mankind.
I am confident that the Siberian permafrost will reveal many more treasures in the years to come. Sadly because of mans own destructive behaviour, warming up the planet thus melting the permafrost.
a cloning project focused around reviving both cave lions and existing species of lions could be a worthwhile joint conservation endeavor that i would donate a ton of money to see come into fruition. returning cave lions back to their native habitat alongside returning cloned lions back to theirs would be absolutely magical.
I agree except for the last bit, cave lions went extinct long ago due to natural causes, the cycle kept going and other species have already taken its place, it would really disbalance the ecosystem if they were introduced again; though id love to see them kept captive and learn more about their behavior and how it would have fit into its world back then
@@Dustfinity i still think Siberia would benefit from having large carnivores in it again, you can disagree all you want but carnivores benefit ecosystems. especially ecosystems which have lost their native carnivores.
When I made Plastercine animals at school as a 5yr olds, I proudly displayed them on a window sill, Being a warm mid summer day they went all runny before my parent were able to appreciate them. If only I had known about preservation using refrigeration.........
They have found blood, skin and DNA of dinosaurs but how could dinosaurs have died out millions of years ago as claimed. Answer: it wasn't millions of years ago.
It's kinda complicated to see what dinosaurs look like in life as from what I've read they would have to become bog bodies which is already super rare and then have to become fossils which is also super rare. But this could be wrong as it's just based on the little tidbits I've read here and there. Trey the explainer probably has some stuff on his youtube about it. But they're all stone unless you count birds lol.
Is it crazy that I feel such sorrow for these poor cubs, especially that one that died of starvation, even if they died so many thousands of years ago!??
But I loooove science when we dont need to kill animals for tests but are given such remarkable specimen by nature ❤️❤️❤️ damn it I am so excited :D life is wonderful. ☺️ once found we should study the ded fk outta each specimen. Yeeeee

I've been surprised by how difficult it is to find any recent information about the Jarkov mammoth. I remember it being all over the news when I was a kid in the early 2000s, so it's quite baffling we're not even sure of what's left of it yet.
Before I die I just want to be able to see one of these extinct animals brought back from the dead.
@@Kenny-bj2zq me too, hopefully they won't fuck up and bring a bunch of T-Rex and Raptors back that'll kill us all!!

But, smilodon didn't live during the ice age? It lived in warmer savannah type habitats
There is a chance that we could get sabre tooth remains frozen because the genus homotherium lived in arctic regions like alaska
I'll always hold out irrational hope for something similar with Titanis Walleri but I'm sure that's never going to happen.
@@sak4933 yeah titans is the most unlikely candidate because he lived in Florida and texas. However there is a small chance that ground sloths and Castoroides remains are found since they were also discovered in Alaska and Kanada.

Hey! I'm so happy to see my ancestor in this video (Kwäday Dan Ts'inchi)! I first discovered he was my ancestor back in 2007, when I was 7 years old and my grandma showed a news clip of my auntie being interviewed by some news organization about the discovery.
I also just wanted to say that I love your content and keep up the amazing work!
It’s so beautiful that they found his family. The same thing happened when they found descendants of Ötzi the Iceman.
don't you creeps EVER feel shame? about stealing the past of other previous races who your real ancestors destroyed and whose advanced cultures they destroyed like the primitive scourge they were?

thank you so much for talking about Kwäday Dän Ts'ìnchi! as a studying biologist i'm always so delighted when people talk about some of the more ethical discoveries and experiments because a lot of what we know today we learned about in horrific ways. it reminds me of the strives we have made in this field of study and the bright future ahead
I especially like that those who discovered and studied this ancient man gave him and his decendants so much respect. I'm much happier about the discovery knowing that the man was laid to rest and not put on display somewhere far from his home.
I don't see how cremating the specimen one year after discovery benefits science.
@@jps101574 It's was out of respect to the natives
@@jps101574 i dont think theres really nothing else we could have done with it anyways, a year was something the researchers agreed on and we have to trust its enough; to be fair i believe inevitably some people would have tried to acquire it and put it up for display like some kind of entertainment object
In the end what matters the most is the people that are alive today, and i think their wishes matter way more than what we would have gained over being able to see the corpse in a case of glass irl
And im sure we will find many more in the future too!
@@Dustfinity Let me put it this way. If scientists unearth one of my ancestors in Europe, no one asks me if it is ok to study the remains and display them in a museum. I just don't understand what makes native Americans so special.
What is the most common creature found frozen in Ice?
Tardigrades.
Thosr bitchs can survive in space
Ok. I know a bit about tardigrades, so I can buy this. However, are they still alive when they thaw out?
chocolate coffee If they are prepared

In his final moments, I doubt he ever imagined people would find him and return his body to his family.

"I don't know, perhaps we should maybe instead put money into preserving the lions that are currently being driven extinct before thinking about reviving the dead" Totally agree with you there Ben.

Sounds like a young man looking for love. That's my guess.
I love your channel. Crazy creatures, and never click-baited(which is rare on YT nowadays).
This kind of thing gives me the perspective of how insignificant the human life is in face of time. From now to 50.000 years in the future everything that we consider so important on a day by day basis will mean nothing.
That's one way to look at it. Another way would be to say that everything we do influences the next action (or reaction) and in 50,000 years that could equal to a massive event.
It's like two straight lines running parallel. One line begins to turn just slightly, barely enough to be noticed at the time, but the more time that passes, the more pronounced the gap is between the two lines.

You forgot about when Brenden Fraiser was dug out of the permafrost by Pauli Shore. Thesedays, he would have been cremated, though.
Are you sad/mad that they cremated that dude? He was only a few hundred years old, it was the right thing to do
@Timothy Barron It's a cultural tradition for those people and has been for a very long time. As a part of that culture, the people who are cremated are done so to not cause offence.
Timothy
I believe if you want to do more research in the future...when technology is much better then now, you should not destroy remains.
@@ActualLiteralKyle Since the dude was centuries old (as opposed to millennia), I have to agree with you. It's whatever his living family members want to do.
If a body is found that is from the ice age or prior however, to cremate that seems criminal... a huge waste of potential knowledge. It shouldn't be allowed to happen. That being said, I don't know that it's actually ever been done to a body found that was from the last ice age.

Very informative upload, Ben. Thanks for this.
All the applause for your coverage of Kwäday Dän Ts'ìnchi, it was both thorough and respectful. We don't often hear about collaboration between First Nations and institutions/governments that turn a net positive for both parties.
Also, interesting to see a story which neatly divides the science from the spectacle we're so used to being presented with these days. Good to know we can still discover things without causing a scene (looking at u, scientist sitting on the mammoth cube lol)

The lion cub parts were really sad. 😟🙁
Why is the mammoth cube "infamous" instead of "famous"? How is the mammoth bad?
Because it is given a silly moniker and is memed on, I suppose
coprolite pos+ting
I remember the whole media circus around it. Perhaps that was the infamy he was referring to.
The mammoth isn't bad, the cube on the other hand? Baaaad news buddy, it's one nasty cube you wouldn't wanna mess with! You know what I heard? I heard the cube steals candy from itsy-bitsy tiny kids, and regularly kick little old ladies with blue hair, straight in the shins! And also mock their small dogs, and once the cube took a dump down its neighbor's chimney. The mammoth just happens to be stuck in the cube, but the cube was a real piece of work long before the mammoth got stuck. Have you ever seen the comedy series Father Ted, about that Irish priest? Yeah, the cube is the equivalent of Father Fintan Stack - rude, obnoxious, mean, and generally just a real bastard. Father Jack Hackett seems polite, empathic, and considerate in comparison. So, there you have it.

It’s again another sad instance of people placing priority on “tradition” over knowledge. A valuable scientific specimen snatched away.
@@austinhinton3944 Yeah, I kind of agree. I get that people want to preserve their cultural heritage, but this person lived so long ago it's hard to even argue that he's even from the same culture. I certainly don't live in the same culture as existed here 550 years ago.
Let see how many live an echo chamber? Let's look at the missing links of the scientific community. Nearly all experts agree “Lucy” was just a 3-foot-tall chimpanzee.
Heidelberg Man. Built from the from a jawbone that was conceded by many to be quite human.
Nebraska Man. Scientifically built up from one tooth later found to be a tooth of an extinct pig.
Piltdown Man. The jawbone turned out to be belonged to a modern ape.
Peking Man. Supposedly 500,000 years old, but all evidence has been disproved.
Neanderthal Man. At the international Congress of zoology 1958 doctor A.J.E cave said his examination showed that this famous skeleton found in Germany over 50 years ago is that of an old man who suffered from arthritis.
New Guinea man dates back to 1970. this species had been found in the region just North of Australia
CRO-magnum man one of the earliest and best-established fossils is at least equal in physique and brain capacity to modern man. So, what's the difference?
Modern man. This genius thinks we came from monkeys.
Evolutionists have plenty of species, but they have never found different kinds, never, nor any transitional stages of one kind to another.
Out of The Top 10 Most Intelligent People in The World: At Least 8 Think God Exists And 6 are Believing Christians. Not to mention of the past. BYTW It's a younger earth than is reported. It only thing that makes sense. According to evolutionism we had two ice ages, meteorite destruction of the earth and endless time. And yet we find animals preserved in perfect condition.
Hey what ever happened to the accuracy of Walking with Dinosaurs? Awesome video btw!

@@tobiaschaparro2372 You should be happy to know that in the past, Antarctica had extensive forests and was a bridge with which marsupials got to Australia from South America. There is probably a lot more penguins to be dug out in New Zealand than Antarctica, as they evolved there.

@@joj4096 because they are so mind blowing, think about stuff like that, just really appreciate it how amazing it is (think about it in deep)!
It is interesting as to what they will continue to find as the Earth keeps warming and the ice melts further. Some scientists worry that ancient viruses that can survive when frozen will also come back though. That could be scary for mankind.
If anything can survive being frozen for eons, its the little stuff. Dont worry, we can double mask.
I am confident that the Siberian permafrost will reveal many more treasures in the years to come.
Sadly because of mans own destructive behaviour, warming up the planet thus melting the permafrost.
a cloning project focused around reviving both cave lions and existing species of lions could be a worthwhile joint conservation endeavor that i would donate a ton of money to see come into fruition. returning cave lions back to their native habitat alongside returning cloned lions back to theirs would be absolutely magical.
I agree except for the last bit, cave lions went extinct long ago due to natural causes, the cycle kept going and other species have already taken its place, it would really disbalance the ecosystem if they were introduced again; though id love to see them kept captive and learn more about their behavior and how it would have fit into its world back then
@@Dustfinity i still think Siberia would benefit from having large carnivores in it again, you can disagree all you want but carnivores benefit ecosystems. especially ecosystems which have lost their native carnivores.
Doesn't Siberia have a few large carnivores already like the tiger, brown bear and wolf?
@@vikashv1 Gotta agree with you here, adding another BIG Carnivore to an area known for already BIG carnivores doesn't seem like the best idea.

@@twagner6155 it's called preservation, carbon dating proves it
@@twagner6155 righty right!!!! Agreed
It's kinda complicated to see what dinosaurs look like in life as from what I've read they would have to become bog bodies which is already super rare and then have to become fossils which is also super rare.
