For me, Paleozoic is the most underrated period of complex life. Such a shame we don't have more portraits of synapsids or marine life .
Yeah but we need way more cambrian and silurian animals rather than just synapsids and less specific marine life
@@Apeironx3e yea, we need also more sea scorpions, giant apex predatory shrimps, early amphipians and also, little more mention of propaleozoic era periods, like giant snowball earth.
@@polakcebulakfilip agreed, people only know 2 Paleo eras/(eons) forgot the terminology. The mesozoic and cenizoic
I honestly want to see more Permian animals getting the spotlight and recognized as such. Synapsids are such cool and diverse animals, but they're always confused as just early dinos. I'd love to see them get more in the mainstream.
Apparently most people confused, because dimetrodon looks rather reptilian in appearance (while other nonmammalian synapsid looks kinda weird as they don't resemble anything with some vaguely reptilian-mammalian combination). Yet because they prehistoric and reptilian in appearance, synapsid must be a dinosaur according to some folk's logic
"For dimetrodon it gets a giant horn"
*tiny spikes on the dimetrodon's sail, tail, neck and lower neck has left the chat*
Dimetrodon also appears in Zoo Tycoon 2: Extinct Animals, where it's an adoptable animal. 😁
Yess
Hope to see zt2 1 and 2 mentioned in future videos
Hi Dino Guy,
Little context before I comment, but I'm a paleontologist whose work focusses very heavily on Dimetrodon, specifically the large Texas species that your video focusses on. While we do have a trackway showing a pelycosaur highwalking the pelvic and pectoral anatomy as well as the limbs are strikingly similar to squamates and crocodilians in which the typical gait is a highly sprawled walk with occasional high walking or running for speed. Otherwise besides the "Late Permian" mishap this is a solid video and a good overview of what we know about Dimetrodon's appearance.
Cheers,
Nathan
Thank you for the Clarification! While doing my research, I was unable to find a clear consensus on the sprawled, semi sprawled, or upright position. You are exactly what I needed.
And yes, I am still kicking myself over saying “Late Permian”. Im also currently doing research on Inostrancevia, so I think the two were swapped in my head surrounding that topic. I just wish I caught it while editing haha.
Thank you for the comment!
that's cool to hear, a lot of people act like depicting Dimetrodon in a sprawling stance is a sin so I've seen a lot of depictions with it standing like a dog which was pretty ridiculous.
Now all we need in Dimetrodon skin and we can know which depiction is best.
I love these "interpertation" videos! You should do giganotosaurus next, as its the opposite of Carcharodontosaurus, appearing a lot in movies but not in documentaries.
We need the next one to be on gorgonopsid. Since that is probably one of the coolest permian synapsids. While also being quite underated.
The only one missing is Fossil Fighters.
Also, if you like Dino Thunder, you're going to love Abaranger.
All the creatures in Fossil Fighters basically are very smol.
And don't forget about Path of Titans
The best champions Starter choice by far.
I think synapsids deserve more atention in modern media.
It would be so amazing having a documentary on permian period.
I want to see a piece of media that showcases the insane size range of the many species of Dimetrodon
True. In certain old B movie, where dimetrodon depicted by optically enlarged iguana with prosthetic sail it ridiculously so big maybe bigger than elephant while in the very first The land Before time movie dimetrodon (or dimetrodon like lizard) depicted with actual size or maybe smaller
Dino- thunder was goated
Glad to say I love this video, and showcasing some cool Dimetrodon deceptions, and I hope you have a great day.
Just found your channel today and binged your videos. Good stuff. I could listen to you talk about dinosaurs all day. This is a big channel in the making, I can feel it. I’m posting this and you’re at 3.07k. I’m going to return to this comment in a few months to see how much you’ve grown. I bet you’re easily 30k before Christmas if you keep these videos pumping out. Cheers!
4:27 that run used to scare me bald, it was just so terrifying even though I had seen this specefic episode millions of times and knew what was going to happen.
man, I loved Power Rangers Dino Thunder as well.
You're gonna love Abaranger, then, dime.
Walking with Monsters is the only piece of media that I’ve ever seen Dimetrodon in, that is, of course, until Jurassic World: Dominion came along.
10:22 I don’t like how he’s smirking at me like he’s about to say, “I have more than just one giant horn on my body😏.”
Unicorn wizard.
Dimetrodon is also gonna appear in the upcoming Kyoryu show on youtube
I didn’t even know dimetrodon was in many medias, thx for the info!
Oh hey you actually did my request. Thank you 😊
I would love to see “The Many Interpretations of Quetzalcoatlus “ !
For a more recent appearance of Dimetrodon, it can also be found in the game Paleo Pines. One of three non dinosaur animals in that game alongside Postosuchus and Desmatosuchus.
Prehistoric life is so fascinating in that you can look at any particular point in history where we knew about Prehistoric Life and our entire perception changes
I dunno if you take suggestions but one I would love to see you cover is Iguanodon
As the second dinosaur ever found I feel looking at it could be a real good way to show how far our understanding of dinosaurs has come
From the early days of those outdated statues to the 90s with WWD to today with stuff like JWE2
Either way keep up what you do and I'll keep tuning in
Here’s a fun one: there was a live-action show in the ‘70’s called Land of the Lost that included a bunch of prehistoric animals. They must not have thought dimetrodon was intimidating enough on its own so they gave them the ability to breathe fire.
Dimetrodon appears in Carnivores 2 and Dinosaur hunter, but as a ambient creature.
As both a dinosaur nerd, and Power Ranger fan. Dino-Thunder is my favorite out of all the Power Ranger series. Not only cause of Tommy Oliver being back, and the mentor of the group. But, cause of how cool the dinosaurs look, and the storyline.
In case Dimetrodon makes a future appearance as a Zord what new abilities should it have?
@@praetorianrex5571 hmm maybe something like a martial arts fan, one that can slice things with the sail.
In fairness, the Fantasia isnt that shrink-wrapped, and has a very dog like snout, hinting at it being closer to mammals. I'd say though, the snout actually looks more gorgonopsidy as a result. Very interesting.
Dimetrodon a relative to us and A mascot in the Paleozoic including the Inostranscevia Dunkleosteus Anomalocaris and sacabambaspis also the great dying dying in the Permian towards the End
When Dino Thunder appears in these videos that’s when you know the video is a banger
you should've talked about abaranger and dino thunder, since it was the show that actually gave us that mecha dimetrodon
A common MISinterpretation is that they were dinosaurs, but they weren’t. They lived and died tens of millions of years before even the earliest dinosaurs did, and they are more closely related to mammals than to birds or other reptiles.
I'm surprsied you didn't cover the fire breathing Dimetrodon from the original Land of the Lost, given it's probably the only stop motion Dimetrodon out there. Excellent video!
Honestly, I REALLY like the Jurassic World: The Game designs for not just the Dimetrodon, but all sorts f the animals as well.
I also must include that e you’ve forgotten about which was the Dimetrodon from Turok: Dinosaur Hunter which weirded miniguns on each side. Which sounds like something out of Dino Riders (which coincidentally was introduced in that show & toy line with hidden guns).
personally I think dimetrodon kinda looks like a dinosuar like creature. it reminds me of sevreal of my favorite dinosuar creatures.
but still it would be neat to see more depictions of them and other pre dinosuar creatures.
also you should do an episode on dinosuar nests or prehistoric nests in general and how they compaire to what we have found.
I personally wouldn't mind more longer videos, just sayin!
Next can you do the many interpretations of carnotaurus?
Dude, could you please do a list of the paleontology books on your shelf? I am so curious.... 😅
You should do cryolophosaurus next!
The game Path of Titans has a dimetrodon mod made by the group 'Wrath of Goliaths' thats in progress, and hot diggity damn is it good! Definitely should go check it out!
The land before time dimetrodon reminds me of edaphosaurus
Man I was so pissed when Dinothunder went with Dimetrozord instead of a Spinozord.
Look at that my dimetrodon family
Edit: everybody subscribe to dimetrodontheking DTK FOR LIFE
The sail is the general idea
What about dimetrodon in kyoryu video?
What about the sawmetrodon from Dino trux
id put fossil fighters chapions on my list that game made me fall in love with this animal
There's also the Dimetro Blazing zord in power rangers dino fury
8:03 when I comes to the sail it’s ether wide or thin I don’t think there’s a right answer now
Synapsids need more love in media :P Pseudosuchians too and i take it personaly :p
Wheres dimetrover from dice?
Small correction: dimetrodon lived in the early Permian, not late. Otherwise good video
3:50 Big oof, saying Dimetrodon is from the Late Permian when it’s from the Early Permian.
I really wish more time periods got the spotlight they deserve in paleo media. Like apart from Dunk, how many people know about the Devonian? The Permian especially seems weirdly left out since you have saber toothed Gorgonopsids in the Late Permian, the absolute unit of Anteosaurus the largest land predator of the Paleozoic and the largest Synapsid land predator until Andrewsarchus, and then the Early Permian has all the sailed backed synapsids such as Edaphosaurus, Dimetrodon, and all of their relatives. Plus the Late Permian has the largest Amphibian to ever live with Prionosuchus. It really is a shame that they are all relatively ignored.
Dang, that’s why you make sure to listen to what you’re saying while editing haha. And I 100% agree. I’m holding out hope that the upcoming “Life on Our Planet” documentary spends a decent amount of time on life before the very popular dinosaurs.
Andrewsarchus wasn't the largest synapsid land predator. The high estimates given to it are based on outdated classification as a mesonychid and stem from scaling smaller mesonichids to fit its giant skull.
Yeah I doubt the Middle Permian will ever be covered by a documentary EVER, it's just the perfect period to skip over from Early to Late Permian, despite the fact it contains one of the most interesting formations like the one with Anteosaurus (Tapinocephalus Assemblage Zone)
@@PoliostasisI don’t know which is worse getting ignored like the Middle Permian and Middle Triassic, or you are only recognized for one thing despite everything else living there. Like Lystrosaurus in the Early Triassic and Dunk for the entirety of the Devonian.
@@beedrillbot121 I'm almost convinced most of the Dicynodonts we see evolve through the Triassic were descended from the Lystrosaurs of the Early Triassic. Technically they didn't go "extinct" but evolved differently enough to be considered a different species by that point.
3:36 It actually looks more like a Edaphosaurus
The many depictions of gorgonops (inostransavia) please
Honestly I don't really like leveling up my creatures to level 40 because the designs aren't accurate and that's coming from someone who is all about accuracy like me I prefer to stay away from level 40 to keep my creatures accurate
Power Rangers Dino Fury also has a Dimetro, my nickname for Dimetrodon
Fantasia? Were paleobiologists aware of the differences in time between dimetrodon, stegosaurus or tyrannosaurus in 1940? I am no expert but I don't think radiocarbon dating was a thing until the 50s or 60s?
Also this comment is too serious. No mention of Dinoriders? They used the fin to hide the rider and a big ass laser canon. :)
in the bakuryuu sentai abaranger the original source material for power ranger dino thunder dimenokodon the dimetrozord and every robot can talk
You should do edaphosaurus cuz its dimetrodon prey
I'm bummed you didn't bring up the Carnivores games
OMG ITS UNICORN WIZARD!!!!!
I am surprised power rangers/Sentai was brought up but not fossil fighters 😭
3:50 *early permian
I am a more Brachiosaurus guy who's excited in media revelation and Paleo accurate
just want to point that outz
You’re kind of forgetting of the dinosaurs in Jurassic World alive.
Correction: Dimetrodon lived in the early permanian
Yup. My fault, I misspoke and failed to catch it while editing.
But what about heterodontosaurus?
(Please SOMEONE get this)
Dimetrodon lived in the early permian not late
Yep
You did not include carnivores dino, hunter
UNICORN WIZARD
Path of titans?
Where’s fossil fighters champions
first
