    As a kid I thought Torosaurus meant "bull lizard" since toro is spanish for bull and it's a pretty appropriate name for the animal. I was shocked when I learned the name was actually a reference to the giant holes in its frill and had nothing to do with bulls at all.

      Possibly silly question here, as you may be someone who actually can answer it. I don't know if they've ever had a clear sex determination on any given Triceratops skeleton. Is it at all possible that with the striking similarities and territorial overlap that the Torosaurus is the male morphology of the Triceratops? That if the frills are primarily for display, the males would have focused on that in their development and the females would have retained vestigial frills that served as useful neck armour protecting the more valuable female members of the heard from direct predator attack? This is also assuming that either or both had harem structured herds similar to many modern grazers and browsers. This would also in some ways explain why there are so few Torosaurus' in ratio to Triceratops. Completely out there or somewhat possible?

    I recently went on a trip to Gettysburg, a place most people, understandably, associate with far more recent history. But in a very quiet corner of the park is a location known, but not marked or advertised, as Dinosaur Bridge- A stone bridge with two paving stones containing one dinosaur track each. One of the tracks is from Anchisaurus, a small, basal sauropodomorph from the Triassic. The other, also from the Triassic, belongs to Atreipus, and to me, this one is far more interesting. This dinosaur is known from footprints exclusively. Nobody but track researchers and enthusiasts has ever heard of this creature, because nobody has ever even found one. And as I stood there and put my hand on its little footprint, I felt such a connection to this unknown little reptile. They stood on this stone when it was still mud, leaving the only trace of them we may ever find. And some stone mason found them, took the careful time to cut the stone around their track (the other stone was deliberately cut to preserve the footprint, as the normal cut would have sliced the track) and laid them where they could amaze any crossers of Plum Run Creek in a quiet corner of a battlefield

      ​@@shibolinemress8913 I would be even more definitive than budget museum was in the video TBH - adding to what ExtremeMadnessX has already said, one of the main indicators of skeletal maturity (in dinosaurs especially but other tetrapods too) is the degree to which disparate bones have fused. So for an adult Triceratops, at the end of its life, to suddenly and rapidly reverse the natural aging process and grow massive holes in its frill defies fundamental biological principles and basic logic. On top of that, we do in fact have juvenile specimens of Torosaurus that, like the adults but unlike Triceratops of the same age, have holes in their frills.
      It's also worth noting that this notion was put forward by Jack Horner, a rather famous palaeontologist who is nowadays being recognised (largely correctly) as something of a contrarian jackass. Another of his old corkers is "T. rex was _actually_ a scavenger that never hunted". Tells you all you need to know really.

    Underdog species are always awesome, there’s so much out there that just wouldn’t be fossilised, look at life today and see the real ratio between the large apex creatures and the thoroughly ordinary, I think it’s safe to imagine there was far more diversity in smaller dinosaurs, including the avians, and the cynodonts (including mammals) throughout the Mesozoic that we will ever know, that played much larger roles in the ecosystem than we can ever credit them for.

    I think the problem is that although there are thousands of dinosaur species, superficially the vast majority all seem to fit into about 10 or so groups in terms of their appearance. T-Rex-like, Stegosaurus-like, Triceratops-like etc. And each group will already have its most famous member. People will get more excited when a dinosaur is discovered that doesnt really resemble any of the currently known ones. Or at least when it has a feature that really sets it apart from the others.

    • @Eserchie
      @Eserchie 8 месяцев назад +3

      Yep. See the popularity of Therizinosaurs. Before we learned how weird they are, the biggest poster child in the group was Deinochierus, which got some attention for being a possible biggest "raptor-like" dino (though more commonly reconstructed as an ornithomimid, sometimes it got done as a dromeosaur - hey, they only had forelimbs)

      @@Eserchie yeah I was thinking of Therizinosaurus too. I still remember I was really excited when I first learnt about it because it was a dinosaur that seemed so unlike any I'd seen before. I guess it just goes to show how effective the primary dinosaur forms were since they so rarely deviated from them.

      ​🦁.@@TheBudgetMuseumhey mate, just found this video & might watch more of your content, I'm always in the mood for dinosaur content.
      Anyways, couldn't agree more about certain dinosaurs not getting enough love, that being said, can see why some of these animals fade into obscurity.
      Tho, don't think Torosaurus doesn't get any love at all (especially in comparison to the other II you've mentioned in this video), afterall, it's in both Jurassic World Evolution games, but personally can see why it & others don't get enough love & become obscure.
      The fact it was confused for Triceratops tells you all you need to know why this happens. The fact that some established dinosaurs are no longer dinosaurs or to have even existed at all. Examples being Troodon, really famous dinosaur at this point, it doesn't exist! All because some idiot based it's existence on a single tooth, than there's Gojirasuarus (Godzilla lizard), now it's apparantly a juvenile Ceolophysis or something else.
      This why myself sometimes hates paleontology, just when you think you understand something (based on what they've told you), they pull the rug from under ya & say no fuck it's not a dinosaur. So it doesn't give much incentive to want to look for more obscure species & maybe find a new favourite, when they can just tell you no it's not real lol.
      Gojirasuarus could've been my new favourite, now it doesn't exist, so can't pick it, it's really sad. Anyway, just thought to give my II cents on that, have a good day mate.
