A mamba is actually worse because it's fast as hell and you have like 5-10 minutes to get medical treatment if you get bit. Those huge ancient snakes were probably very slow and won't attack unless they're very hungry.

Madtsoia was by far the best thing to come out of the second season of Prehistoric Plant due to it being a surprise creature not featured in any of the trailers or teasers. besides that, and Sanajeh's appearance in Dinosaur Train I think these snakes deserve more attention as with the great majority of prehistoric creatures.
Thank you for making the effort to find relevant snake images of modern snakes - it's frustrating how many educational channels and documentarys default to stock images of random snakes that are completely out of place in the documentary (e.g. a doc about tiny golden vipers using images of harmless Australian pythons, or docs about cobras showing stock images of boas) - you put the effort in to mostly show boas and pythons, the relevant lineages you're discussing! It's appreciated!
That's Majungasaurus it's also an abelisaur which has a horn, full of osteoderms, and very very small arms they have 1 head if your a dinosaur fan maybe you wouldn't type this comment because it's been a dinosaur for a very long time now like BBC earth
I really appreciate that the content on this channel isn’t dumbed down. Other channels have cool content but it’s often seemingly made specifically for children. Keep up the good work!
As an Australian, I've always found it funny when Americans talk about Aus like it's scary. Like, bro, you guys have bears and mountain lions and shit. Hell, bears alone are more terrifying than anything you can find around here, and way more likely to actually encounter as well.
Yeah, but bears for the most part won't do anything... like most of the apex predators on our continent. But snakes, spiders, and large asss insects I'll pass. Hahahahaha
@@XTaronyuX Most of which will leave you alone as well. They're just... creepier. I think the big thing is our shit is easier to fend off should they get it in their little heads to go you. Can't be said of a grizzly if it decides "fuck that guy in particular". Pretty much have to hope loud noises and waving your arms around are enough to make you look bear-spooky so it changes it's bear-mind about bear-mauling you. About the only things around here that compare are crocodiles. Which, honestly, if you're in a position to get attacked by you're pretty much done. The way to survive a croc attack is to not be around a croc.
I’m proud of our wide array of dangerous animals, but I don’t think we have anything on Australia. Y’all have saltwater crocodiles and basically every one of the most venomous animals on the planet. While we probably technically win in dangerous land mammals and have our share of venomous (albeit far less deadly) animals, and the friendlier cousins of your salties (the American Alligator and Crocodile), I still think y’all have us beaten. Parts of Africa and South and Central America might have Australia beaten.
I don’t think a bear holds a candle to a saltwater crocodile. Aside from polar bears, which you won’t find outside of low population areas of Alaska and Canada in North America, bears generally don’t actively hunt humans and can potentially be reasoned with (not counting polar bears, who, like salties and Nile crocodiles are amongst the true maneaters).
As someone who owns a pet snake and thinks every snake is cute as a button, even when they are very clearly capable or even willing to kill me, I would still die trying to give all these giant snakes a lil kiss on the forehead. If I moved to Florida I would either become unstoppable or I would get eaten in seconds.
Seriously i don't understand the fear of snakes lol. Spiders i understand but i still think tarantulas are cool even though they're creepy. The little fuzzy babies are adorable
Given that the largest Anaconda weighed 227kg at 28ft (8.4m). Assuming it shared the same proportions, a 15m Vasuki would weigh about 1300kg (1.4 tons)! Ridiculous for a snake 🐍
That’s assuming similar proportions. Titanaboa is basically a supersized Anaconda, which is by far the most massive snake in three world. Vasuki appears to be more gracile, even if it is longer.
@@GrahamCStrouse Vasuki is a lot more terrestrial than the water loving titanoboa, so i guess the more appropriate comparison for Vasuki's proportion would be the asiatic pythons like the Reticulated Python or the Burmese Pythons
The largest venomous snake is possible paleophis colosseus as its a sea snake and and sea snakes are venomous just imagine swimming in Egyptian waters 35mya and suddenly you're bitten by a giant sea snake then being unable to swim as your muscles suddenly stop functioning leaving you to drown in the deadly sea

@@Frightningdefinitely misinformation from where you got that then. You could tell by looking at a body structure and mass of a anaconda that it would be heavier then the largest rp
Glad to see this uptick in prehistory content. I remember when E.D.G.E and Ben G. Thomas took off like 6 years ago, and it was sad to see that all die down. Fingers crossed this keeps up!
There might be a possibility for the smallest snakes to have venom, considering that in the modern era most venomous snakes are relatively small compared to the bigger ones like the anaconda. At least that's what I think
Venom adaptations are pretty recent compared to the time line of snakes. But coming back to the question, yes. Venomous snakes did exist back then but more like what modern day colubrids are, rear fanged and have to chew to get venom into prey. Front fanged ones like elapids and vipers are pretty recent.
@@The_Great_Bovine Given that venom can be found in multiple snake families and that some of their closest relatives like monitor and beaded lizards also possess venom it's quite likely that venom isn't recent at all, but rather ancestral to the Toxicofera as a whole.
Nawww just wait till we get taller I mean we might even be 10 feet you never know but then again Australia would be evacuated due to shock of em not just flying spiders like normal giant flying spiders

@@ppsaha1994 Still not plausible as Squids are not a good example to go off. Squids are invertebrates, they have no bones or cartilage. So they can get as big as they want, but even Giant Squid are still prey. Nothing with cartilage or bones can get that big in the deep, there's just not enough food and only a slow metabolism would benefit from being down there constantly.
5:17 Earth’s current largest known snake is the Green Anaconda. Not the Reticulated Python. The RP is the longest. But the Green Anaconda is larger and heavier.
That vasuki is imaginary, and vasuki indicus is constrictor non venomous, so both are different Just naming it vasuki does not mean its same snake from myths.
Finally people are starting to catch on that titanoboa was a piscivore. I swear I had one too many debates about this. Also I just want to add that titanoboa is probably heavier than vasuki from what I know.
I imagine they would be oppertunistic with other animals that happen to come across them. But it seems like they would be eating fish a lot more often than Anacondas do.
4:40 This seems a bit overstated. If they're constrictors then the prey would already be dead most likely once the snake started biting off chunks, and biting off chunks of food isn't all that horrific. I mean, it's how the majority of predators work.

Snakes are some of the most amazing animals on this planet, I’m sure I sound insane but I would love to witness one of these in person if that were possible 🐍
Anyone remember the masterpiece Python vs Boa. Good times
I want to watch the movie again I only watched the snake scenes not fully story
9:32 Can we talk about how the creators of that used Jennifer Lopez specifically as a size comparison lol.
I love these videos❤❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸
4:38 holy shit the last time i saw that footage, i was like 4-5 years old. CRAZY seeing it again unexpectedly
Really big snakes 😱
props to the cameraman for going back in time and getting these clips
