    As someone who plays Monster Hunter World, I will say I'm just glad that it's recognized. The hunter himself however is less of a scientist and more of a population control, a balance keeper if you will. They do research and have to go through the process of discovering hints and clues about disturbances in the ecosystem, and learn more about the monsters that can be found in the world in order to make hunting them easier, but I wouldn't call them scientist in the same way I would call a paleontologist a scientist.

    Something interesting about ARK is that the humans were so evolved that when they needed to add animal population to the ARKs they created their own version of species and even mythological creatures, so this is why they are not accurate at all, some of them are a mix of species and some are the species but genetic modified to be like what we see

    Nice video I have couple games I have seen about dinosaurs. The Isle, Beast of Bermuda, Prehistoric Kingdom, and of course Turok Dinosaur Hunter. Was curious why in the past dinosaurs were depicted without feathers ?

    • @ausraptor9602
      @ausraptor9602 Год назад +5

      Dinosaurs were depicted without feathers in the past because no preserved feather impressions had been discovered in the fossil record. Zoologists of the time gave them scaly skin because their preserved skeletons were more reptile-like in appearance.

      Buts it’s mainly just due to the rarity of fossilisation, the process tends to destroy a lot of the soft material (skin, organs etc) and only leaves hard parts (bones and teeth)

    Not too important but you said the Dodo was a dinosaur when it is not. Most likely a mistake on your behalf, but if not, The Dodo being a dinosaur means a Cassowary is too, but we’re fairly aware of the Cassowary’s standing as to whether it’s a flightless bird or a prehistoric bird-reptile

      Birds are dinosaurs, birds evolved directly from theropod dinosaurs.
      Dodos are flightless relatives of pigeons, cassowary’s are from a lineage of once flying birds that evolved to become flightless. Dodos and cassowaries are not closely related but they are both birds and therefore are both dinosaurs.

      Dinosaur’s are the name of the reptillian-avian and somewhat mammalian in some senses crossed species alive in the Mesozoic period (Triassic, Jurrasic, and Cretaceous)

And no the pigeon is not a relative of the Dodo, it’s a specific pigeon that is a relative, and it’s a tropical bird found on islands, nothing like the other pigeon species we have.
      Cassowaries likely evolved from the first bird species (That appeared in the Jurassic period, let me stress again that birds are not dinosaurs) and yes would have flown at one point in their existence on earth, but how is that relevant?

      Lemme explain it to you:
      Dinosauria is a clade. A clade in biology means that every animal which evolved from a certain animal or any of it’s descendants is part of that group. Birds, such as the cassowary or dodo, all descended from animals such as archaeopteryx (likely not archaeopteryx itself, but close relatives of archaeopteryx). The thing is that archaeopteryx and it’s relatives were maniraptors, which is a group of dinosaurs. So, since birds descended from dinosaurs, that means that they themselves are dinosaurs.
