15 INCREDIBLE Animal Fossils
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июн 2024
- When left in the right environment, animals can become fossilized over thousands and millions of years… Almost everything we know about the prehistoric world has been learned from the discovery of fossils, and they’ve proven to be an incredible window into the past. While something can be learned from all of them, there are undoubtedly some that are more important and fascinating than the rest… so join us for today's video as we take a look at 15 incredible animal fossils.

Really disappointed by the click bait thumb pic featuring phoney looking fossils that don't appear in the video.
Me too.
Yes, it really upset me too!
Thanks for the warning, that's why i read comments before watching a vid.

Aww I wanted to know more about that massive seahorse in the thumbnail😢
Me too. Figured it was just click bait, but goggled the ammonite. Largest one found is 1.8 metres wide! That’s a big boy! No such evidence for the ginormous sea horse though. We both got kind of scammed, but the content was rather good. Greetings from Canada! 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
It obviously existed in the kingdom of Photoshopia 😉

Fossils found in coal are from an era where free oxygen was significantly higher in the atmosphere which caused animals and insects to reach megalithic proportions.
Imagine how much food they would need
@@karlkarlsson9126 The plants were massive too. Plenty to eat. "evolutionary science" is full of shit. NOTHING is millions of years old.
@@lm4278 What do you mean
I wonder how quickly they grew, and what age they reached at the size they were found?
From the ante-Diluvian world.
Very good video! Enjoyed this (and another previous video) and decided to subscribe as there was none of the tripe many channels dish out that is not factual and basically hype to get views. Great job, and keep up the good work!
1 - It wasn't soft tissue from a dinosaur. It was soft tissue *_residue_* (ie: iron-rich molecules, proteins & structures that ressemble blood cells) which had only stayed intact due to the high iron/low oxygen environment.
2 - The material needed to be soaked for hours in an acid bath to extract it from the minerals that had infiltrated the bone during fossilisation.
3 - This was from a Female T-Rex from the late Cretaceous era, approx 95 million years ago. (The thigh bone needed to be broken in half to be airlifted from the site, giving access to the region where the sample was taken.)
It's crazy trying to imagine what some of those animals looked like while living.
This video was very interesting! Loved it!
I love how we're learning so much more about the animals that left these fossils with technology that wasn't available many years ago.
I learned not to trust thumbnails😂😂😂
Is the giant snail just click bait?
@@andrewmunz1639the one in the thumbnail? Actually no, that’s one of the worlds largest known fossil ammonites, a type of squid
Really? You do know there are videos on here that totally disprove the "time-frame" of millions of years to make a fossil? Don't you? Look it up on here... this guy's an idiot!
Two almost complete animals caught in such a dramatic fossilized pose is almost as incredible as finding it.
Yeah, buried in the Noah’s flood.
Lucky for us, not so lucky for those two who were clearly buried alive in sand.

@leonhughes9014 well
I can certainly see your point. Those fossils were there long before any book or man was Roaming the earth.
@@leonhughes9014
Lol watching this just shows how many morons believe what they are told and dint look into it for themselves. There is no mechanism for organism to gain new never before seen information. Not copies or broken genes new ones. So no you don't have a mechanism for evolution. Dating methods are total crop. They don't work, in fact we find c14 in diamonds coal and Dino fossils. All of which are supposed to be way to old to have c14 yet they do. Academia can't get fossil formation and time it takes to make them correct its why soft tissue is there. Yet you think they are right on all this lol that's freaking DUMB DUMB DUMB. Soft tissue in fossil with secular dates ranging from 65 Mil to 500 million years old. There is no mechanism to allow those proteins to last more then a few thousand years. Mary S. Paper on soft tissue was a joke, it didn't prove a thing. So anyone believing evolution and quackademics is just stupid and gullible. Not capable of thinking for themselves.
Amazing finds! Nice work, thank you!
Laurie here. Great job. I'm loving this video. Your skills are improving with each short. Great angles you give us to observe the hunter. Thank you!!!
Awesome video brother 💪🏼😎❤️
Just imagine all the creatures we have never discovered...and never will.
right.
Darwin did
Wow. Incredible video 😉
My mind was blown on the dinosaur tissue still being there after 68 million years
Gullible much? LMFAO!!!
It's an amazing find indeed. You can also call them aswell as request a copy of the test results. Or view them on their website. It's been published.
@@foodforthesoul1326 believe it or not, you’re wrong. That information has been confirmed.
So Eric. You may continue to be mind blown 😎
It wasn't there after 68 million years ago. It's way younger than that. A few thousand. That's it.
Fossils are a combination of events that are rare, think about when any creature dies, eventually the bones get scattered, it's why human fossils are so rare, we've only been around for a relatively short time, having so many dinosaur fossils, shows the sheer numbers were huge and for 100's of millions of years, it's kinda like we just got here.
We did just get here
The best analogy I've heard is the 24-hour clock analogy: If the entire 4.6-billion-year lifespan of our planet was represented as a 24-hour day, humans didn't even exist before the very last second of the very last minute of the very last hour of that day. In a figurative sense, humans have only been around for a single second. We totally did just get here.
They are everywhere. Don't be ridiculous. I've been around the world and they are everywhere, just not T Rex.

So fascinating
To just tell you, I love learning about animals, and I did like, and describe and thank you, and your video is incredible and interesting.
1. In ancient (antediluvian) times, the Earth's oxygen content was higher and the atmospheric pressure was greater. Only these conditions can explain how giant dinosaurs (which strangely had nostrils the same size as horses nostrils) were able to breathe sufficient oxygen. These same conditions are today duplicated in hyperbaric chambers, which are used to create incredible (some say "miraculous") healing conditions today (see the story of "Baby Jessica").
2. There are countless sites of massive fossil boneyards around the world that all have evidence of violent alluvial (Flood) burial!
" In Alberta, Canada there is a huge graveyard that stretches for hundreds of miles and holds innumerable dinosaurs bones. In Agate Springs, Nebraska a fossil graveyard of around 9,000 animals was found buried in alluvial deposits."
"Paleontologists have found a site with bones from approximately 10,000 hadrosaurs"!
The only evidence to explain these massive and violent burials is that they were all FLOOD-RELATED!
I believe most of the fossil finds + fossil graveyards are formed by instantaneous burials caused by a catastrophic flood/landslides.... making the Biblical stance of a global flood more likely than slow sedimentation.
Thank you for bringing this up. It;s good to see a view that approaches this from a young earth view.
I wish people would stop saying speshies. It's never been speshies, it's species. Stop pronouncing it speshies. Say it the way it's spelt, species.
Have a great day!
Click bait thumb = Don't recommend channel
Fascinating!
To just tell you I love leaning about animals and I did a like and subscribe thank you is video is incredible and interesting.
its good to know that Megalodons were "much smaller or much larger" than we thought!
well spent research dollars.

At least we now know they weren't AS big or small as we thought.

Amazing picture, how long do you keep your hair? I find that quite attractive, please describe it?
The baleen whale fossil found by a “Rolling Hills High School” student is located in Palos Verdes in Los Angeles, not Orange County.
Thank you !
Soft tissue in a t rex and other dinos? Maybe our dating methods are flawed. Even if they were only a few thousand years old, i would not expect this.
Science is wrong?? that's preposterous. We've done the calculations we can't possibly be wrong.
@@marcusmuse4787 - Sarcasm? Must be. Science is continually proven mistaken throughout history. I think, because so much of it is theoretical, and the next theory is based on the current theory is based on the previous.
And all of those theories are considered to be factual by the academics, and nearly everyone else.
They used to murder people for having different ideas. Now they just destroy their careers. Their livelihood.
On the opposite pole of that, I recently read that there are academic papers and studies that are incorrect in their findings, and that it is intentional fudging on the part of the researchers in order to insure they receive funding to keep their jobs.
Just when we think we know everything, something else comes along and proves it wrong.
I guess in the end, we should always question everything, and in doing so, keep an open mind, while at the same time, require consistent results using the same rigorous methods of research.
@@kentneumann5209 We haven't found soft-tissues, we have found remnants of what once may have been soft-tissues. The calculated ages do not appear to be false, testing techniques are measurable and can be contrasted against each other for accuracy.

I like these videos, especially the hilarious comments posted by creationists or intelligent designers. Especially ones that says something like, my one ‘fact’ outweighs all of your thousands of facts.
we all share the same evidence throughout nature, but there are differences of interpretation
8:13 dude really needs to pop that thing before he comes to work. Lmao
WOW SO COOL
I saw a turtle skull as big as a Volkswagen car, imagine how big the shell must have been.
I'd swear when diving off the dam at one of our local ponds we'd glance of snapping turtles the size of Volkswagons! You'd even occasionally see them go drifting by some 20 feet down! To this day you hear people still talking about the giant turtles in that pond... (It's called a pond in our area but its almost two miles long and gets over 300' deep in places! )..
20:30 What a fascinating pair of fossils!
That's the coolest fossil. A fight that's been preserved for millions of years!
about the mosquito: I'm quite sure that DNA doesn't preserve that long.
2:01 yes it was soft tissue. But it was not soft, nor transparent nor flexible. It was the permineralisation of the red blood cells in the bone marrow being astoundingly well preserved. However it was still rock. But we were still able to analyse some of its dna
literally flexible blood vessels have also been found
@@mentilly_all no that is false. Blood vessels have been found fossilised before but they’re not flexible. They’re rock.
Soft tissue has been found because obviously the fossils are not as old as they try to believe.
I came for the thumbnail!
I found a flat triangular stone in northwestern New Mexico and picked it up later looking at it I noticed it had some very distinct form. But I’m not a paleontologist it could easily be a bony plate from many dinosaurs or a section of turtle shell. It is, however, smaller than my full hand and my unscientific leaning would be more towards some kind of turtle, but there are a lot of other options out there
Imagine if it was Something That was from time Meteor. Hit Mexico All Them Year's ago.
You can tell the difference from a rock and fossil because if you lick a fossil it will stick to your toung
@@popeyethepirate5473 why would you lick it 😭
Chances are it’s just a triangular stone
Nice click bait thumbnail. Fooled me
All these animals being covered so quickly.... gee wonder what could have done that.
Depends on which fossil.
Woow that is spectacular Im a fossils collector I found many different pieces of fossils like shark teeths , dinosaurs teeths, clams,amenities, Mammut teeths, and many others
Super!!!
Amber is from Resin, not Sap 6:28

I'm happy that they added Myanmar cuz I'm from there
Quite a number of amber fossils containing insects have been found. It is remarkable that the fossils appear to be very similar to their current counterparts.
Because the ages of all this stuff Is laughably false fantasy…
How many petrified animals still have soft tissue and the way all these fossils are found in mass mangled graves as if hit by a sudden tidal wave or flood or ocean fossils found on top of mountains I find them all the time on rocks in the Midwest nowhere near the ocean…..
Our ancestors before fake reality an fake science took over in the 1850s had names for all these creatures before the “Dinosaur” myth began native Americans described giant birds (thunderbirds) etc. so did ancient Indians or Hindu scriptures describe theses giant birds in depth…. And just recently fake science is now claiming dinosaurs are giant birds huh….?
Isn’t it, no evidence of evolution.
What a planet ! !
Imagine thinking that ammonoideas were that big💀
Magaladon is a Prehistoric Shark. San Anreas Trench.
Its really not that old thousands not millions
FACTS LOL they sound so stupid saying "MILLIONS" HOW IS SOMETHING MILLIONS OF YEARS OLD when it was discovered just feet under the dirt 💀
@@jhonron-zv3de We know they are millions of years old through the application of absolute dating techniques and we can find fossils "just feet under the dirt" because EROSION is a thing.
Wow! That was interesting. The last two dinos died in battle, locked together for millions of years. What a find. 🦖
It's not impossible to bring prehistoric animals back to life.
Not impossible, just hard and only animals recently extinct
1:50 😅 this video is gold, but not the golden throne the man was looking for 😂😂😂😂
Grats to the High Schooler who dug up the fossil!
at 9:50 here we go, quote: "there are questions whether the fossil was legally acquired." Yeah sure, it could contain ivory or maybe it was illegaly poached back in the day, 130 million years ago.
The reality is that nobody notices a rare find, and nobody cares. Fossils are fossils and these are bought and sold everywhere around the planet. Only when rare things get discovered bursts of lament surface from certified 'experts' who cannot stand they themselves were not involved.
And then the following bogus remark: "Usually specimens like this aren't studied by the scientific community to ensure collectors adhere to international laws, so it's hoped that another one with full providence will be found soon." Well if the envious scientific community (read: privileged class of a few individuals) is not involved, then the discovery must be dismissed and officially declared as being invalid. It is only a matter of finding a 'weakness' and using that 'weakness' to formulate a case against the alleged perpetrator. False arguments like 'international laws', which do not exist, to suggest private collectors are ignorant layman criminals who should abstain from engaging in such intellectually and legally fragile studies. The 'scientific community' is in reality nothing less than a strong authoritarian hierarchy of intellectual fascism. The authoritarian mega-mouths obviously didn't do the work, a private collector did, and how painful that proved to be for these institutionalised narcissists.
You get a thumbs down because the lead pic isn’t included in the actual video
Paleontology NOT archaeology which is the study of man made things.
Fossils only prove the animal was covered quickly.
And that those animals were once alive, and that there must have at a minimum been a genetically viable population at some point etc etc.
Now I know what Charlie Sheen’s been doing after he left his sitcom.
I recommend you buy the book living fossils by Dr Carl Werner
The last one was a draw then? That's a shame, i would have loved to see a rematch.
Sad to know that they don't know that sap doesn't become amber. That's tree resin from the pinaceae/ dipterocarpaceae/burseraceae families for example. Not all trees make resin. A very common misconception.

Before I watch this, I'm guessing that the thumbnail with the two men casually supporting a piece of stone on its narrowest point which would have weighed about a ton , is fake and doesn't actually feature in this video.
So is the ammonite shown real? Nothing on it. Quite interesting though.
I bought a shark tooth up in Estes Park Colorado where it was supposedly found. It's only about an inch long and looks like it is real and not a rock. It is tan colored and really sharp. Pristine...
I've heard that they are found all over the place up there though I've never found one myself while hiking around. Of course, I wasn't looking either.
It is hard to imagine that the top of the Rockies were once under water and further, that fossils could have survived such an upheaval of land only to be found so much later!
Western Colorado has lots of fossils waiting to be discovered as well and now that I'm retired, perhaps I'll move there from the Front Range and pick up a new hobby!
Here in Los Angeles, you’ve got the ocean and the mountains and the desert and it’s interesting that there are so many seashells in the desert. There’s other things one can find in the desert that could only be found in the ocean so basically before the mountains were here, everything was covered with water in Los Angeles, most likely Southern California, or even maybe the whole coast of California. Also, in the mountains behind Los Angeles, there is desert and it’s not uncommon to find things in the mountains that should be in the ocean so it must have taken a very long time for these mountains to rise maybe 150 million years.
Scientist say these mountains, grow 1 inch in height every hundred years and every time there is an
Earthquake in Los Angeles the mountains, grow upward yup an inch every hundred years
At this point in Colorado I am finding shelves of fossils!!
They say giant human are from the gods. What about giant animals, sea creatures etc..?
The whale that got attacked by the giant shark probably starved to death bc he was bit in the jaw just a guess
Odd how neither one of your lead-in photographs represent anything in your video. I believe that is called, "deception"!

Is there any recent evidence showing fossilization takes less time than originally thought?
Diomond's=Heat,Preassure. Super Nova. B.F.M.
Hard water fossils often have quick fossilization, according to the data. It’s per mineralization that causes fossilization, the replacement of bones with minerals. Fossils are any type of remains that exceed 8-10,000 years old.
Fossilisation is instant burial by sediment, some in the act of eating even giving birth. Not quite in the act of dying but caught unaware by a catastrophic disturbance.
I don't think scientists can bring them including ice age mammals back to life.
How big is it the mesquitdo
Dinosaurs weren't reptiles, they were warm blooded. The late Jurassic critters started to become warm blooded
That doesn't stop them from being reptiles, it just means that reptiles shouldn't be defined by their cold-bloodedness.
Dinosaurs belong to archosauria, which is a clade that include pterosaurs and crocodilians. Archosauria is also one of the main clades that makes up the wider clade Reptilia. Therefore, if dinosaurs descended from reptiles, and their closest living relatives are reptiles too, then due to the laws of monophyly, dinosaurs must be considered reptiles too (which includes birds - birds are reptiles since they are also dinosaurs).
The idea that all reptiles had to be cold-blooded was made byCarl Linnaeus in the 1750s. At this point, the theory of evolution hadn't been conceptualised, and Archaeopteryx hadn't been discovered yet, so no-one could've known that the warm-blooded birds, and their dinosaurian ancestors, should also qualify as reptiles.
Hope this helps.
I love fossils so much I would love to imagine that maybe I will become one as well
I wonder if its possible to cteate those conditions intentionaly to insure that happening?
I bet it is.
I foresee a new option for burial services.

So how do whe know fossil size is scaled right? I mean in winter when your dog leaves a foot print in the ice as the ice melts and refreezes it makes the print look huge and most of the time the print don't even warp. And that is over weeks so how does the bone hole getting filled with sediment over millions of years not change?

I don’t understand how the biggest animal went extinct especially in the ocean. How did the megoladon go extinct?
Humankind have been just a blip on the timeline of existence on this planet. It’s amazing to see what came before us and to think about what will come once humans drive ourselves to extinction. Which at this point seems inevitable with everything that’s happening in our current times. Between the possibility of nuclear war, major climate change, and the overpopulation of humans using our natural resources like they won’t expire we’re destined to never be more than a blip on the timeline of existence on earth.
Human evolution is a failing dead-end, too clever for our own good. Our brains have allowed the universe to become self aware.
