Fact check: the scientific name for a grizzly bear is "Ursus Arctus Horriblis," which literally translates to "Horrible Bear Bear." The Eurasian Brown Bear is "Ursus Arctos Arctos" (Bear Bear Bear). Lastly, the Arctic circles are named such due to the population of ursids in the area. "Arctic" = "Close to Bears" and "Antarctic" = "Away from Bears" One last fun fact: The only reason I know this was because I got REALLY into /r/tumblr and it made me laugh

Fact check; Leedsicthys was not the largest fish that ever lived. It was the largest ray-finned fish known, but numerous sharks throughout the fossil record have exceeded it in size. Also, modern day whale sharks are roughly the same size as Leedsicthys. Sincerely, A pedantic paleontologist.
I know there were bigger sharks but no normal person considers those bastards fish Fish=cute (fish are friends) Shark= de-dum deh-dum dehdumdehdumdehdumdehdum (less cute)
There's also a dinosaur called Irritator challengeri. Why is it called Irritator? Because it was discovered during a black market deal, leading them to have to search super hard to find it, and when they did, the remains weren't in the best quality. (In case you were wondering about challengeri, it's after Professor Challenger from The Lost World, because the dino was discovered in Brazil near where the novel takes place.)
@@Kremit_the_Forg except for occasions like Siats (named for a monster in Ute mythology) and Quetzalcoatlus (named after a god). In those instaces, they have the right idea. Also, almost every t rex relative has a name like "alarming, frightening, terrifying" lizard. Even Nanuqsaurus is named after polar bears.
Bears used to be sacred and feared animals and it was believed that calling them by their actual name would summon them so they would be called by lots of different euphemisms. Most common euphemism was "karhu", derived from a Finnish word for coarse (karhea) 'cause bear's fur is pretty coarse, which is now the official name. The original name is believed to be "otso". Bears were also believed to be all kinds of divine, born amongst stars, being children of the god of the forests etc.
In spanish the word for bear is oso, maybe the weren´t that feared in Spain? At least in my city in Mexico we had bears centuries ago but they end with all of them.
Have you ever seen a deer when its rubbing the velvet off its horns? Its HORRIFYING, it looks like that deer just finished murdering someone. Or horse foals when they still have the slippers over their hooves when they're just born, that shit is lovecraftian
In Florida we call them curloos and they usually stick to eating grubs and worms here but the brown ones have figured out how to open mollusks and get huge now
That's because they've moved into urban areas a lot more recently due to destruction of the wetlands which are their natural habitat. For example the number of ibis in inner western Sydney (Strathfield, Homebush, Burwood etc) has gone ballistic over the last 20 years because of the construction work on the facilities for the Sydney Olympics in 2000 at Olympic Park near Homebush Bay, and new suburbs like Newington.
Fun fact, only male deers loose there antlers, because they use them for competition, it usually happens in winter, therefore all of Santa's reindeer are female
@@supernewbie694 i always assumed it meant that the stables were climate controlled, so the reindeers didnt seasonally shed antlers, allowing Santa to add more bells 😄
@@supernewbie694 No?... It doesn't? It says females lose their antlers in the summer. They have them in the winter so they can fight for the best food for their babies.
Fun fact: the antlers you touched that were nice and fuzzy. That is a special skin they grow over their antlers that helps them grow and get constructed up into their final shape. When it comes to that, the skin starts to degrade and becomes itchy so they go to trees with rough bark and scratch it off (it doesn't hurt at all i have been told, but even if it does, not as much as the itching is annoying apparently) but the thing is there is still blood vessels in there so they look enormously terrifying and creepy with blood soaked antlers and skin tissue hanging down everywhere... they eat the velvet afterwards tho, or at least what they can get because they would lose nutrient otherwise.
The animal you're referring to is likely Araripesuchus, which grew to be... 6 feet. So, not as intimidating as you were likely thinking. Don't worry, there were still bear-dogs, Hell Pigs, Megalania, Saurosuchus (couldn't gallop, but grew upwards of 25 feet long), Purusaurus, Titanoboa, Mosasaurus, and other things I can't think of right now, but I'll be back.
Like... I get that that would be terrifying to run into, but all I can picture is a galloping horse with a crocodile head and a majestic mane flying behind it and I can't stop laughing.
Unfortunately, Leedsycthys was a filter feeder, meaning it wouldn't have been very formidable. It only grew to such a huge size because there wasn't really anything to eat them.
That was most likely Nara, Japan. Funny thing is they can get rather aggressive if you don’t give them food after bowing. The little shit tried to ram me.
I bet one of that guys pick up lines was “hey baby wanna see my bone room?” Upon which he would just try to impress them by showing off his fossil collection
Anybody who's ever spent any considerable time playing Ark: Survival Evolved knows that "Giant problem fish" is the most accurate description of this thing.
The size of Leedsichthys is exaggerated a little bit, it probably wasn’t the largest fish as some sharks were and are comparable in size but it was the largest ray finned fish, the size was probably closer to Whale sharks with a max size being closer to 50ish feet
One of my lecturers in university had to categorize 7 species of sea cucumber (if i remember right) so he just named them after the 7 dwarfs from snow white.
This fish in the game ARK: Survival Evolved. It is a massive slow non-aggressive fish, you can even swim up to it and "harvest" meat from it and not care. It's will however aggro and eat rifts/boats. The fish will charge and eat the boat. There is even a white version of this fish in the game.
Because Ark multiplayer is full of douchebags who put tech pillars and foundations in low-level spawning areas, so that new players can't build, I build on my raft as a mobile base. Only to have it destroyed by a Leedsicthys, losing most of my stuff. After swimming to shore, I saw another, more elaborately built raft sail by, so I tried to warn the player in chat. There's something rather silly about a little hairy caveman, jumping up and down on a beach yelling "LEEDS! LEEDS!"
Yep, singleplayer Ark is fun and you don't have to deal with people trying to kill you on top of all the dinos trying to kill you. It's most fun though, when you can get a group of 4-8 people who can all cooperate on a private server.
@@woodgatejack bro SAMEEEEE. When I first started playing ark I thought it was a grand idea to learn the game on a pvp server.

yeah, antlers are annually shed, horns are not. Horns are bone covered in a sheathe of keratin, antlers are bone covered with skin which then 'dies' when the antler matures.

Geranium robertianum is a herbaceous plant that has an unpleasant odour. it was named after some guy called Robert who also had an unpleasant odour (no joke)
Reminds me of the dinosaur Irritator. Fossil collectors had used plaster to make the skull look more impressive and valuable, damaging it in the process. This annoyed paleontologists when they got their hands on it so much they named it Irritator, which literally just means "irritation".
Could I recommend you talk about the Dunkleosteus? That thing is just well...how do I put it? Well, it would dunk on any animal you have done "doesn't give a fuck" segment on since it is a giant armor-plated fish. Like with serious armor plating. Not some silly scales but legit bone plating.
Fun fact (In Utah at least): If you are in posession of antlers that are either cut at the base, or have skull fragments in them (or even just a whole skull) during off-seasons, you can be fined for poaching. I had no idea that was the case until I was 16-17. Went to a camp and found a deer skull just out there with some nice horns. My Da's a knifemaker, so I put it in my rucksack to take home for knife scales and handles. Fast forward a few months, and an EPA buddy of his saw the skull on the workbench... Asked where and when he got it...
yeah it looks like a monument of death, and then "yeah id never want to hurt a dear", and it changes the whole perspective. kinda like an epic fantasy looking room. looks almost out of bloodborne or something.

Back in high school, my Horticulture teacher gave us an assignment to imagine we'd discovered a new plant in the Rain Forrest, where we had to describe and draw it's features, then name the new species. I came up with a carnivorous, thick-stemmed flower that excreted a sticky white substance to catch insects, which I named the "Cummonia Face". My stupid friends and I thought it was hilarious enough to risk detention over, but our teacher didn't catch the innuendo and I actually received an A. lol
Fun fact: the bear thing has happened in multiple languages. The version I've heard, it was apparently a common belief that uttering the true name of something could cause it to appear, and bears are not to be fucked with so of course they didn't want to summon one. Not sure how true that explanation is, or how many cultures it's true for, but for some reason many peoples have changed the word for "bear" in their languages, and it doesn't matter whether you get a superstitious explanation or the politeness explanation, it's always got something to do with the "oh shit" factor.
Leedsichthys Problematicus "The Problematic Fish of Leeds" ...Sounds like Vermithrax Perjorative. "The Worm From Thrace that Makes Things Worse." Which is, ironically, the BEST dragon name in media...
Is the fun fact about when a deer sheds its antlers they’re not connected at all on the wall where the antlers are hanging there’s a bit of skull connected them which means somebody cut off the top half of the deers skull.
The gorilla story just reminds me that we have a snakes whose Latin name basically translate to "water snake water snake" and there is a sub species that translate to "water snake water snake water snake"
As an american seeing a room full of taxidermied animals isn't that odd but i 100% freak out a little everytime it's a whole ass bear cause, yknow, it's a whole ass bear 🤣
I study biology and I can confirm 'Gorilla gorilla gorilla'. Other funny ones include: boa constrictor (Boa constrictor) several fungus beetles in the genus 'Gelae' (G. baen, G. donut, G. fish, G. rol) Several fossilized flies named Carmenelectra shechisme (she kiss me) and Carmenelectra shehuggme (she hug me) and, finally, a remarkably square spongy fungus named Spongiforma squarepantsii.
Pigeons are rock doves, so called because they naturally live on big stone cliffs. We inadvertently made a lot more of their preferred habitat when we made stone buildings. Especially tall ones. Those Pigeons aren't stuck. They're settling in.
It would be virtually imposible to hunt that many deers, there are regulations and taxes that make you be able to hunt at most 4 or so deer per season, so to have a room like that would take both a fortune and a lifetime
_Leedsichthys_ was actually a giant filter feeder with tiny teeth, so biting any great whites was probably not gonna happen if they coexisted. As an aside, there's a new dinosaur officially called _Thanos_ about a year or two ago.
Fact about bears in Siberia - during a hunt it's a bad omen to call bear a "bear" instead they're called "grandpa". It's odd that cultures separated over 10.000 kilometres have similar superstitions.

@@cadend6925 Why I only played Ragnarok LMAO
I study biology and I can confirm 'Gorilla gorilla gorilla'.
Other funny ones include:
boa constrictor (Boa constrictor)
several fungus beetles in the genus 'Gelae' (G. baen, G. donut, G. fish, G. rol)
Several fossilized flies named Carmenelectra shechisme (she kiss me) and Carmenelectra shehuggme (she hug me)
and, finally, a remarkably square spongy fungus named Spongiforma squarepantsii.
Can't forget "
Neobuthus factorio" which is literally named after the video game, Factorio
I love it when scientists have fun with giving scientific names. There is even a dinosaur named after Thanos lol.
I just watched the Jurasic Park the game video saw your shirt and thought it was the same video for a second
The deer bit did remind me that, I love deer, majestic animals I'd like to do no harm to, but I do like things like antler chandeliers.
Pigeons are rock doves, so called because they naturally live on big stone cliffs. We inadvertently made a lot more of their preferred habitat when we made stone buildings. Especially tall ones. Those Pigeons aren't stuck. They're settling in.
It would be virtually imposible to hunt that many deers, there are regulations and taxes that make you be able to hunt at most 4 or so deer per season, so to have a room like that would take both a fortune and a lifetime
I bet many ladies were confused and a little disappointed when he'd ask if they wanted to go to his bone room.
.... And that was my Bone Room. Now to the Sex Dungeon.
1:50 Jesus, look at his stache!
He grew his own fuckin' facemask!
Fact check; the Leedsicthys is a pretty docile creature. But if it sees a raft or a motorboat it goes INSANE and attacks it until it is destroyed.
When I went to Nara (where the deer bow in Japan) I got chased by them cause I was rationing my deer biscuits. They also sound like creaky doors
Carl looks so happy
:)
A Skunk should in fact be called a "Fart Badger".
This just proves, you can say "Bone Room" to Nisha, for 15 minutes and have her laughing the whole time
I have a bone room too, but I don't use it for polishing skeletons (if you know what I mean).
I'm from illinois, and i thought these were found in/near leeds, figured that at one point in history leeds was at the bottom of an ancient ocean
Love the name for the Seagull, we have a bird in Australia with a similar name. Bin Chicken and its 100% accurate.
_Leedsichthys_ was actually a giant filter feeder with tiny teeth, so biting any great whites was probably not gonna happen if they coexisted.
As an aside, there's a new dinosaur officially called _Thanos_ about a year or two ago.
My favourite one for Stingrays is “Taser Napkin”
Fact about bears in Siberia - during a hunt it's a bad omen to call bear a "bear" instead they're called "grandpa". It's odd that cultures separated over 10.000 kilometres have similar superstitions.
In Australia we call the bird "ibis" a bin chicken as they eat and drink from bins
Speaking of the Nara Deers, saw somewhere that some of them gotten thin because they got too used to being fed by the tourist.
A diet consiting mostly or solely of crackers is probably not the most healthy thing for a deer.
Hey, there any way you can do a video on Mary Anning? AKA the Mother of Modern Paleontology.
