- Giant theropod, large sail, big bulky arms with giant claws, and is always debated about? Sounds like Spinosaurus right? WRONG! This is Oxalaia, the Spino's Brazilian Twin.

Man spinosaur fossils have bad luck not being destroyed in museums
Thank the german thieves
no kidding! Almost like a deity is seeking to make sure this secret will always remain in doubt
Brazilians Lost both Fossils of Irritator and Oxalaia. Oxalaia was destroyed, and Irritator was stolen by Germans.
ALIENS
Not getting destroyed in Museum Challenge: Impossible
bro, they found two bones and were like: Yup it was a master fisherman, had a bite force 20x that of a wolf, went to college in 1982, and had a crush on his gym teacher.
LOL😂
humm not buying the 20x bite force, how could they possibly know!
Wait til you find out about Quetzalcoatlus
I'm not a palentologist or biologist, but I think it's reasonable to say that bite force is one of the ONLY things you CAN infer from just jaw fragments...
@@IllustriousCrocoduck yeah but we're fooling around ;)
If I had a nickel for every time spinosaur fossils stored in a museum were destroyed, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice, right?
Lightning never strikes the same place twice... Unless you are the fossilized remains of a Spinosaurid.
Aliens are trying to protect us from forbidden knowledge
@@4124V4TA-SNPCA-xand the lightning is probably bombs
@@ArielMurrayDrakonslayer777
That can also be a kind of light.
But when asking for some light you probably don't want an incendiary bomb or a Molotov thrown at you. 😁
@@4124V4TA-SNPCA-x true da
It is kind of ironic, that even their finding history is simmilar. Both got their only fossils destroyed shortly after discovering, due to destruction of the museum they were held in.
True, the original fossils were both destroyed. But because of the original spino fossils destroyed it intrigued people to go find a full skeleton. This is how researchers found out more about spino as their was a whole market where it's fossils were being sold and finally a almost complete fossil found in morroco.
@@Robert53area amazing
It's almost like a curse because the whole reason why Irritator challengeri was given its name was because of the frustration the founders went through of its discovery.
I find that suspicious
What makes it evil though
Spinosaurid fossils try not to be destroyed challenge difficulty:IMPOSSIBLE
Edit:THE AMOUNT OF LIKES
Damn planes going bombs away
The moral of the story is don't keep spinosaurid remains in your museum. This one caught fire, the Allies bombed Egyptius', are there any other instances of this?
Fake Edit: I thumbed it down to help even things out. :)
@@Intrusion498 but also
Malaysian spinosauradae even existing or not difficulty:negative infinity
you ruined the comment with that likes edit. and it's not even that many, just 425
@@frostbitetheannunakiiceind6574 it’s more than I usually get
Tragically analogous that Spinosaurus for the longest time was also known from very little fossil evidence. The holotype was destroyed by allied bombing during WW2. Wasn't until Paul Sereno much, much later that we got a better idea of what Spinosaurus was like. So if someone rich is watching or reading this, fund an expedition to the Alcantara formation!
They wouldn't get any money back. At all. Unless it's subsidized by a university
Spinosaurus: Hey twin!!
Oxalaia: Yoo! 🤝🙏🤞
The burning of a museum of that size is just so unimaginably tragic for us nerds... we want answers damnit!
I wonder if 3d scanning and ct scanning to solid models of rare fossils should be mandatory to prevent the complete loss of precious specimens to history.
This right here
I cried so hard of anger when the museum burned down. Unfortunately, Brazil and historical preservation and memory don't match well. Some improvements have been made, but very slowly
As a Brazilian,i can confirm the existence of these guys.
I've seen them mostly in small,deep rivers.
They get beautiful in the mating season.
They seem to be scared of fire, don't know why tho.
I'm more curious about the small deep river you mentioned..¿
was that before you tended to your extremely venomous snake collection?
Or maybe some of those magic plants potions and smokes ...
@@christines.5241 i don't know why You guys doubt my sanity.
Aside from my dementia,autism and schizophrenia i am perfectly healthy.
@@CeratsTheCrunchI am so sorry. People are too rude and judgemental nowadays.
Spinosaurids in my opinion were a mix between a crocodilian and a grizzly bear. Fisher or not, that's a terrifying combo!
Both eat fish so they would be adapted well to eat fish and would be big and strong
Spinosaur fossils trying to not get destroyed challange : impossible
Lmao bros trying to like farm
If the Jurassic franchise ever wanted to have a paleo-accurate spinosaurid they could introduce the oxalaia
Oxalaia and Sigilmassasaurus are very enigmatic dinosaurs, was it a new species, or just another Spinosaurus?
great stuff, love the art you showcased
How do they know Oxalaia was pretty much a Spinosaurus twin? The only fossils that have been found of Oxalaia are part of an upper jaw and some smaller parts of the snout.
Because its skeleton was almost the exact same. But I still don't understand why they thought it had a sail like Spino.
@@sitafuller497 Infered from the assumption of it being closely related to spinosaurus.
Ooh boy, another Extinct Zoo banger.
Every Saturdays.
I very much enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Thank you for mentioning this guy, I've seen it soo many times in paleo books but always wanted to see it in a documentary someday.
What an odd coincidence that I’ve just published a stopmotion video on oxalaia today as well😅
Very good stop motion, I seen it!
@@sitafuller497 thx
SOMEONE HAS FINALLY GIVEN ME ATTENTION!!!!!!!
Ayyyy
Random tip, the x is pronnounced as "sh" like, oshalaia! Great video mate!
I would have thought it would be an "h" sound like in Oaxaca or Mexico, but it makes sense that it's "sh" because Portuguese.
I am from Brazil and i love spinosaurs. My favorite spinosaur of my country is irritator.
The first Spinosaurus fossils found: got blown up when a bomb fell on the museum during World War II
The first Oxalaia fossils found: got burn down when the museum caught fire
"Babe, wake up. Extinct Zoo just dropped another video, and this one's about Spinosaurids!"
_RUclipsr simulator bot_ comment
What's the punch line?
Nice video
This was an amazing watch. Among all dinosaurs, the spinosaurids are my favorites (I can so very much relate to being the odd and ungainly one with different abilities than most, heh) and now Oxalaia is a star in that constellation for me. So thanks!
Fascinating!
I love that there's a dino called Irritator
they probably moved along the bottom of a body of water similar to modern day hippos explaining its heavy bone structure
Great video sometimes I wonder if the same type of Dino’s were wondering around Brazil roughly 95mya meaning another spino, a similar carcharodontosaurus etc. Mike
Fate has it out for Palaeontologists regarding Spinosaur fossils.
Oxalaia could be a subspecies of spinosaurus due to the small evolutionary differences like the sale and more tightly packed teeth and a straighter snout 3:51 my theory is that oxalaia and spinosaurus had a very close ancestor but split off very recently so one is more suited for a semi-aquatic/hippo life style and oxalaia is somewhat more of a land based spinosaurid with it’s more straightened snout or it hunted like spinosaurus and eating fish but that’s just my theory
Spinosaurids are so majestic
Another awesome video ! Please tell me where I can find the image in 2:19
well,i am from brasil,more especifically from rio,where the museum caught fire in 2018,feeling represented
One of the most iconic and as well as the most confusing dinosaur to science. 😂
nice!!
Everytime that this kind of fossils gets found, it will be destroyed
Man, i think that is a canon event & there's no way for us to change it
Fortaleza mentioned!! 🇧🇷🫡
Oxalia be a prehistoric spino crocodile 💀
i think Baryonix is my favorite dino in that family (pretty sure Barry is a spinosauridae) When I was little I had a toy for him and it's name is cool! He's missing his sail but the midweight version is certainly a terror in its own right
Spinosaurus: bombed
Oxalaia: burned
Irritator: stolen
10:19 cursed but besides that I have always been curious about this spinosaurid thanks for making this
Dang, I have never heard of this dinosaur until I watched this video!
Irrigator by like Damm I thought it was gonna by me.
James Gurney art is gold!
first thought he was crocodilian
3:17 all imma say is THAT angle from THAT pose git me feelin like imma do smthn to that spino
What the fk lol
Wish I could time travel to see this magnificent creatures 😍
Isn't it an irony that both large spinosaurus' fossils are lost.
where did you get all this info from lol
Can we have a video on all the spinosurid family
Was half expecting a spinofaarus video 🤦🏾🤦🏾
It reminds me a lot of modern crocodiles. Being opportunistic hunter and being primarily aquatic but also hunting on land
Hey extinctzoo just a question why are you starting to delete some of your older videos now?
Sigilmisaurus be like
you should consider doing a video looking at the dinos in the game Ark and seeing how close they are to realistic . i know everyone in our game's community would LOVE it :-)
This channel so dope. Never knew about this dinosaur
Thank you, Extinct Zoo, for making sure we understood that the creature in the thumbnail did not represent an photograph of a living Spinosaurus ! That was close, man! Dude, I was so captivated, initially,by what I thought to be photographic evidence for the discovery of an extant example of that species, and just before the first tear of horrified wonder could drop from my astounded eyes, I saw the caption. Whheeeeewwww! Can you imagine my relief! There was absolutely zero sarcasm in the preceding remark👍
I'm sure a fish and small animals diet was probably one of the best food niches in this era. Full of energy and vitamins
I'm sure you're a fish as well xD
Science already has enough trouble with one Spinosaurus and now we have two? Goddamnit.
Oml don't tell me we're about to have another Nanotyrannus vs baby T. Rex debate between these two💀
This is why research casts are important.
The Spinosaurus Rabbit hole deepens
Extinct zoo will you ever do science videos of movie dinosaurs?
Movie dinosaurs aint real how can bro research them? The only thing he can research about them is their behavior shown on screen. So that video would be very useless.
Damn, I remember a time, way back when, when the no.2 was Allosaurus
Considering the sheer size of fossilized fish found in the same period, in areas where shallow seas existed, it's really no surprise that there were a number of large Spinosaurids. If 4' - 8' fish were somewhat commonplace, a Spino could wade in shallow water all day (much like a modern Gharial crocodile), and snatch fish.
The simplest explanation is that the Spinosaurus parent species was present when South America and Africa split apart. It's recreation with a sail is a perhaps a stretch though as only 2 other species featured large ventral structures.
The moral of this story is that if you're a museum and someone offers you a recently discovered Spinosaurid fossil, best just say "no."
I swear the Spinosaurids all have just the WORST luck when it comes to fossil survivability
I think we should classify it as Spinosaurus quimbensis because it resembles Spinosaurus Aegypticus a lot even though they live in different continents but like Panthers and lions live in different places but are still considered to be in the genus panthera even though their mouths are different most species in the same genus of corse has different features
Extinct zoo, how many more things have we gotten wrong about the spinosaurus
Sigilmassasuarus in the back like:😐
Known which one you meant before I clicked
The skeletons of these relatives look so similar to my eyes. I wonder how distinct their colourations and fleshy bits would be.
Oh look a snouth! I bet this creature has a sail!
I guess The holotype incident is a canon event for spinosaurs lmao
THANK YOU....
Haha, shows that you know! I already knew about Oxalia 😌🙂↕️
I imagine that due to its general body shape and weight distribution plus the nose location, it spent a ton of the time in water and probably ate a lot of fish.
Due to the legs being awkwardly placed in relation to its body weight distribution, I can’t imagine it was doing a ton of land travel. That being said it could definitely get a decent speed if it needed to charge at something so I imagine it was like a much more adept alligator.
Imagine an alligator that could actually be extremely adept on land! Terrifying
The only way I actually figured out that Oxalaia existed was because of the ARK mod called Additional Creatures 2: Wild Ark 😅
Why did I think the thumbnail was Godzilla💀💀
So these were basically walking Alligators / Crocodiles but much scarier cant imagine coming up on these with stone spears 😱
Sigh, sails were not for heat regulation. Several studies have concluded that they can't have that function
Uk shite bout animal Biology
dimetrodon had a similar sail construction as Spinosaurus, and its sails are commonly thought to have been used for thermoregulation
@@rebelcat550 The aforementioned studies have examined Dimetrodon and conclude its sails were for ornamentation only
2:28 I would argue that Carcharodontosaurus would’ve been the apex predator of Northern Africa rather than Spinosaurus but that’s just my opinion. Being longer and possibly heavier does not necessarily mean it would be the apex predator of its environment. For example Allosaurus is pretty universally considered to be the apex predator of the Morrison Formation despite being smaller than Saurophaganax and Torvosaurus (though to be fair Allosaurus is far more common than them). Diet likely plays a role in food web hierarchy because a Spinosaurus is clearly evolved to take on aquatic prey but probably would not be above taking on smaller terrestrial animals but certainly nothing as large as itself. Carcharodontosaurus on the other hand being a large Allosauroid likely feeds on anything it can get like ornithopods, smaller theropods, young sauropods, and even large old or sick sauropods through mobbing/pack hunting behavior similar to what is theorized for Mapusaurus
Babe! New Dinosaur just dropped!
new dinosaurs before gta 6
Oxalaia a Brazilian spino and An impressive Dinosaur
Short answer: it's oxalaia
At first i thought is was an oxalaia, but i was correct lol xd
I wish someone would do Sauroposeidon, its 2 little bros Brachiosaurus and Giraffititan get all the attention. 🦕
It's widely known here in Brazil not only they existed, but they never really went extinct. They evolved and adapted. Nowadays they are way smaller and are called "chupacabras", a common pet to us Brazilians.
Why is it its own genus and not a sister species to spinosaurus if they're so closely related/potentially synonymous?
The evil spinosaurus brother. His name is Sam.
In 2018? I MEAN what they were thinking that they would make raining? Unbelievable loss!
Damn every years when someone put a Spinosaurid skeletons in a museum its either got destroyed, got burned, got stolen or missing.
Favourite dino of the family fornme is the baryonyx
My brain said siglmasasaurus
wait, HOW am I brazilian and I'm only knowing about this dinosaur NOW?? 😭😭😭😭
