@@pll3827 that's almost comforting, knowing that someone wanted us as a work of art like that (assuming there's no horrible twist involved, which you could effortlessly do I might add)
@@johnkieth4537 There is a spider that uses electric currents and wind currents in order to fly. Yes, flying spiders exist. Balloon organ animals are probably more likely to evolve on planets with a denser atmosphere. That's my speculation.
I mean it’s possible but it requires some specialized mechanisms. Key part would be getting a biological way to produce a lighter than air gas, and a place to store it and regulate its own buoyancy, either through storage of fluid that can be released, or a way to vent the gas. These three necessary mechanisms would be difficult for a creature like that to be possible. There is another problem with finding a way to deal with wind and finding food while in the sky since you will have to be in either a predatory position against other flying animals or descending down to feed upon things on the ground. This isn’t too much of an issue for heavier than air fliers but adding in wind can make it much harder for a balloon creature to control where it would go and strongly impact ability to move. It would conserve a LOT of energy needed for flight though it’s just a matter of would it be worth it for the downsides and whatever energy is needed to produce lift gas.
Wandering Writer The only option for lift gas is hydrogen. It can even take advantage of this unique quirk by having the ability to explode. It would need a gas bag organ that can be inflated and deflated. Dealing with wind is simple. The organism inflates and deflates the balloon, similar to how hot air balloons use the wind. The organism would descend only to drink water and eat food.
If Lystrocheirids hatch their young beneath corpses so they have something to eat when they are born, the young would be competing with other desert-dwelling scavengers for the corpses. To combat this, the Lystrocheirids might drag corpses they find into a breeding den, hiding the corpse from other scavengers after laying the eggs at the very back of the tunnel. This is similar to how mud dobbers stuff the mud tubes they form full of spider corpses so their young can eat them as they hatch.
The only clade their really competing against is the onisthoperans, so it's not that bad. They could also give birth/lay eggs in oases, where they could eat the chemophytes
Nope, not just you- I would absolutely love plushies and figurines of each and every one of the animals in this series! Someone please fund this! \(^.^)/

BBC should invest in your content, is truly beautiful and amazing. Thank you very much for this, and congratulations for the quality of your videos.
Good point. I believe he did this so he could better generalize about each species rather than having a morphological or behavioral difference in both genders of his animals. Ignoring monogamy allows him to look at the species as if it were asexual, rather than having “mothers” and “fathers”. While this may seem bad (as he is omitting vital information), it’s a practical way of getting things done quicker. If there are no differences in the genders, he can save time by only talking about the species from a wider view, rather than on a gender based view for each species. Besides, Biblaridion is someone who looks like he’s done his research, so he’s had to have seen that as a possible answer to the problem and rejected the solution for whatever reason.
The Cornfield there’s countless numbers of ways for life to evolve it’s impossible for him to mention all of them, I would like you to do something like that and see your ego plummet when you realize how hard it is, plus he made it just for entertainment this isn’t a real scientific study it’s purely for entertainment so getting one factor wrong doesn’t mean it deserves to give the whole video a dislike
@The Cornfield He's said before that these videos don't necessarily cover individual species of his fictional biosphere, more so that they're general groups or blueprints of which there may be many species within. Knowing that, I assume he's sticking to morphology because those are much broader changes that encapsulate a wider range of species. Correct me if I'm wrong about that; ecology and biology as a whole is far from my strongest subject. But continuing from that, I would assume that that also means he's not overly concerned with going too far into radiation, because doing so would be too specific and bog down the general scope of things.
Cannot wait to see the flying species take on semi to fully aquatic adaptations especially with their much more efficient respiration compared to their relatives. Flightless squid penguins when?
@@rlyehian2229 Honestly I don't see why he couldn't do both, though the real question is if he'll make this series go long enough to evolve intelligent life.
@@firstlast-ey4ly yeah that would be cool if he did both. Although I find your idea of the show continuing on untill intelligence evoles on TIRA-292B a more interesting concept would be humans coming to TIRA and seeing the interactions the fauna have with humans and seeing how they adapt to an urban environment caused by humans colonizing the planet.
@@rlyehian2229 While human colonization is cool, I think it'd be just as neat to see how life with a similar intelligence to humans evolve, at least before the colonization bit. Maybe he could then explore various cultures and civilizations amid the intelligent life.
34:53, Mamals are species with mamary glands, glands wich produce milk for offspring as neither the existance of fur nor live birth is a common trait. If they evovlve some sort of nutrient producing mechanism for young in the alien biosphere we will have a mammalian equivalent
lol yes. His series is really cool, I’ve never seen anything like it, but it’s very unlikely. The fact is that compared to Earth, these forms of life evolved very stable and from a single lineage (while on Earth we see that there were waves of potentially terrestrial animals that occupied the land at the same time).
I just realised how Polypodia is the best tree in this series, like, no one from it is extinct, and all the animals in with can adapt really fast to differents habitats and biomas #TEAMSPIDERBUGSTHATAREREALLYOP
Interesting to see how many of these organisms take similar evolutionary steps to life on our own planet - with the evolution of fur, live births, and two forward-facing eyes. Animal pollination is worth a mention as well. Really makes you understand how the evolution of certain traits on our own planet was not simply random, but to a certain extent inevitable.
I've learned so much about evolution watching this series. It's crazy how many of the same traits have evolved independently from each other. Makes you realize that life too has to abide to the same universal rules.
Not a huge surprise. I think he's using convergent evolution as an example to allow it to happen. Though it might not be Keratin that does hair and scales, it might be some other sulfur rich like protein that does the trick on his crazy world.
Seeing some form of "fur" evolve makes me unreasonably happy. We have fuzzy bois, now! Really interesting to see environmental pressures making all kinds of neat things pop up in different species.
if you have a plant that sheds leaves, that would give tons of resources to the necro plants, probably evolving them to be larger, maybe even giving them a way to sense leaves around them or to communicate with others (like mushrooms) since they have the resources to develop other functions without dying out
First off it's not true live birth, and secondly mammals have nothing to do with fur (We have furless mammals), body heat (many mammals while not cold blooded in the sense that reptiles and fish are still gain most of their heat from their surroundings, the naked mole rat for example comes to mind) nor if they give live birth (We actually have an entire subgroup of mammals that lay eggs, most famous being the platypus), but rather if they have mammalry glands AKA producing milk for their offspring.
@@matheussandbakk9959 Yes, not all mammals have fur, and some sects of mammals lay eggs, but the traits I was describing are the main traits associated with mammals. Yes, we still haven't seen any form of mammary glands in any of these animals yet so they're not true mammals yet, but its still very close
@@Ajpms Yes I know, trust me this was not to belittle you in any way rather just stating the definition of a mammal. And I agree these are practically the closest things to mammals yet and I'm really excited to see what biblaridion does next
@@bri1085 Not that I know of? If you could explain or give me a link to it on the internet that would be cool. I honestly can't evem think of a reason to have anything similar to that considering flies don't care for their children
Man, I'm imagining this as a BBC documentary, and the desert episode would definitely have a scenario where a mother Lystrocheirid had to use her own body as food for her babies...
While looking up matrotrophy and other gestation behaviors I came across one of the strangest creatures I have ever heard of: the gastric-brooding frog. Apparently before the 1980's there were *two* species of frogs in Queensland that ingested their own eggs and incubated them in their stomachs. Their eggs and tadpoles were covered in a hormone which suppresses production of acid in their mother's stomach, but half of the eggs the mother frog lays never develop into tadpoles meaning she either never eats them or they are digested before her stomach is shut down completely. Once the eggs develop into tadpoles the mother frog gives birth by vomiting them up one at a time over the course of a week, or all at once if she is in danger.
And there's a toad (Pipa pipa) that has its eggs land on its back, then grows the skin on its back to envelop the eggs, and then later when they are developed, they erupt from the back of the toad
I just randomly thought about this videos potential existence 10 minutes after you posted it. RUclips must have sent me a special priority psychic notification for something so important.
I was thinking. With the constantly depleting atmospheric H2S, the “plants would be at risk of going extinct even with proliferating sulfur reduction bacteria. Then I thought about how cows produce copious amounts of methane as waste byproducts almost to the point of contributing to climate change when factory farmed (which is so sad btw). What if, to deal with the excess waste sulfur produced by the plants, the herbivores of this world evolved a symbiotic relationship with the sulfur reducing bacteria similar to how we have our own gut biome. The excess H2S would be released through flatulence or some other way. I know it’s childish to talk about but farts evolved for a reason. Also, this may be how they consume such acidic water that would cover the planet. Sorry posting this a third time.
Just a point on the cows, methane produced by them is actually a major contributor to climate change, to the point where they are the agricultural industry's largest source of greenhouse gas emissions. I think globally the agriculture industry accounts for around 20% of greenhouse gas emissions.
There are sulfur mining operations around volcanos, it is difficult and dangerous since humans are not built to process sulfur. But these animals would find such a place a to be really good. High sulfur in the air would imply even higher amounts of sulfur in the ground.
The camel is actually incredibly interesting, as it likely attained its large body size due to an abundance of food (which it was exclusively able to consume) in its original habitat, the american south west, before it migrated and successfully colonized other desert regions.
The camel hump is also interesting, as it likely evolved as an adaptation to very cold, rather than very dry, climates: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camel#Evolution
Ben Thomason yeah, they’re adapted to eating plants there that no other animal on the planet can eat. They migrated across the Bering land bridge in the opposite directions humans did
This is the first episode I saw in this series. After watching this one I went back and watched the rest. It was interesting seeing these creatures progress from the two basic body plans to their current design. Having know what some later creatures looked like allowed me to notice traits developing in the early ancestors. Kind of like looking at an evolutionary tree and recognizing where certain parts of modern day animals first appeared. Great series, would recommend to anyone.
Man, i have to Say It, this Is one of the most fascinating series i ever watched. Following the evolution of this imaginary world helps to dream about the life that i hope we'll discover amidst the stars.
The quality of this series is really incredible, and has been since the very beginning. The sheer amount of work put into this to deliver such a detailed, refined, and high-quality product is really one-in-a-million. If there’s a single other RUclips channel with this level of detail poured into a plausible yet fictional setting, I’d be surprised. Keep up the good work

While it sure is beautiful I have to ruin that wish. The atmosphere would suffocate and dissolve you and everything would smell like rotten eggs. The Water is too acidic to drink and the organisms here are probably not edible
Lystrocheirids have fricking binoculars and I love that And I want a pet Allodont Also would it be theoretically possible to see in real life a Giganthropic sauropod? There are several species of non-avian dinosaurs that are believed to have lived in temperate and polar clinates, Like Nanuqsaurus, Yutyrannus and possibly (most likely not) Cryolophosaurus. Nanuqsaurus and Yutyrannus both survived the cold primarily through their feathers. But in a group of creatures without fur or feathers of any kind would that still be possible?

Take as much time as you need on these videos, as it only means the videos you make will be even better than they already are.
This is one of those videos that when I see it in my subscription feed I have to stop what I'm doing to watch it. Legit this is one of the most interesting and crazy world-building projects out there. Can't wait to see what the societies on this planet will look like.
A suggestion to make your model work: If the East and West regions of the continent have "rain shadow", that means atmospheric circulation carries humidity inward on both sides, so the circulation would need to escape the continent in the north and/or southern parts of the continent. This would either mean those currents lose humidity while travelling inland, consequently diverting and carrying hot desert air north/south (colliding near the coast with colder currents and creating tropical / humid regions (high pressure areas, year round rainfall or close to it), or there would be no desert formation in the first place in those regions (making deserts more likely to form in the corners, in the form of steppes / tanga). Just a few notes. In any case, the atmospheric circulation needs work to fit your current model.
The barrier mountain regions on the map that cover the east and west coast make that an unworkable model. The weather circulation has always been north-south when the land environment is covered because of that.
Ok lystrocherids vs techopods might be the significant question : Techopods have feathers , a placenta and are endotherms with the ability to hibernate ... Lystrocherids are proficient diggers , have developed eyes , and are near developing a multi staged metamorphosis ... I am not saying they'll fight for ecological nieches afther a mass extinction ... I am just saying that i bet on these two guys to survive a mass extinction that whipes out most of the primitive megafauna ... And that then they will also have plenty of opportunities to evolve and develop ... Also ... 26:10 WHAT A COUPLE OF C H O N C K E R S

Bibladarion you should make a sequel series where you new intelegent life starts building a civilization and the animals and environment for said civilization
A little late to the party, but the main reason why camels are so strange regarding their body size is because they aren’t native to the desert. Camels are closely related to llamas, and share a common ancestor around the same region. However, during the last Ice Age, the camels migrated across America and over the Beringia land bridge into Asia and eventually into the Sahara Desert. This is also why there are camels in both the Gobi Desert and similar Asian deserts and also in Africa. This, along with human domestication and use of camels for desert transportation, led camels to conquer the deserts to the point where today we see them simply as native animals, when in reality they have very little adaptations to desert environments but in some regards were preadapted to arid climates via their water storing fat and they’re ability to chew basically anything even hardy thorny cactuses.

When this series is over, you should do a colab with TierZoo to rank the creatures of your world !
I would have preferred an hour long step by step evolution video showing how everything changed in a timelap or a documentary of the ecosystem.
@@rlyehian2229 Honestly I don't see why he couldn't do both, though the real question is if he'll make this series go long enough to evolve intelligent life.
@@firstlast-ey4ly yeah that would be cool if he did both. Although I find your idea of the show continuing on untill intelligence evoles on TIRA-292B a more interesting concept would be humans coming to TIRA and seeing the interactions the fauna have with humans and seeing how they adapt to an urban environment caused by humans colonizing the planet.
@@rlyehian2229 While human colonization is cool, I think it'd be just as neat to see how life with a similar intelligence to humans evolve, at least before the colonization bit. Maybe he could then explore various cultures and civilizations amid the intelligent life.

@@afkfromawake the future is wild already did that eight times
34:53, Mamals are species with mamary glands, glands wich produce milk for offspring as neither the existance of fur nor live birth is a common trait.
If they evovlve some sort of nutrient producing mechanism for young in the alien biosphere we will have a mammalian equivalent
lol yes. His series is really cool, I’ve never seen anything like it, but it’s very unlikely. The fact is that compared to Earth, these forms of life evolved very stable and from a single lineage (while on Earth we see that there were waves of potentially terrestrial animals that occupied the land at the same time).
I just realised how Polypodia is the best tree in this series, like, no one from it is extinct, and all the animals in with can adapt really fast to differents habitats and biomas

Interesting to see how many of these organisms take similar evolutionary steps to life on our own planet - with the evolution of fur, live births, and two forward-facing eyes. Animal pollination is worth a mention as well. Really makes you understand how the evolution of certain traits on our own planet was not simply random, but to a certain extent inevitable.
Primative feathers too
I've learned so much about evolution watching this series. It's crazy how many of the same traits have evolved independently from each other. Makes you realize that life too has to abide to the same universal rules.
Yes
Not a huge surprise. I think he's using convergent evolution as an example to allow it to happen. Though it might not be Keratin that does hair and scales, it might be some other sulfur rich like protein that does the trick on his crazy world.
its convergent evolution in action! similar selective pressures select for similar traits.
What if you wanted to evolve to be giant.

@@toliet123 it seems to be every 2 months so i was like "Where is it?" yesterday and today it was here
Haha jokes on you, I re-watch this on a weekly basis
@@bri1085 That's so basic, try daily
if you have a plant that sheds leaves, that would give tons of resources to the necro plants, probably evolving them to be larger, maybe even giving them a way to sense leaves around them or to communicate with others (like mushrooms) since they have the resources to develop other functions without dying out
Yes indeed! I hope this is explained in future episodes.
Hoho have a reply
So, we finally have our first true "mammals"
- live birth
- fur/hair covered body
- maintaining their own body heat
First off it's not true live birth, and secondly mammals have nothing to do with fur (We have furless mammals), body heat (many mammals while not cold blooded in the sense that reptiles and fish are still gain most of their heat from their surroundings, the naked mole rat for example comes to mind) nor if they give live birth (We actually have an entire subgroup of mammals that lay eggs, most famous being the platypus), but rather if they have mammalry glands AKA producing milk for their offspring.
@@matheussandbakk9959
Yes, not all mammals have fur, and some sects of mammals lay eggs, but the traits I was describing are the main traits associated with mammals.
Yes, we still haven't seen any form of mammary glands in any of these animals yet so they're not true mammals yet, but its still very close
@@Ajpms Yes I know, trust me this was not to belittle you in any way rather just stating the definition of a mammal. And I agree these are practically the closest things to mammals yet and I'm really excited to see what biblaridion does next

While looking up matrotrophy and other gestation behaviors I came across one of the strangest creatures I have ever heard of: the gastric-brooding frog. Apparently before the 1980's there were *two* species of frogs in Queensland that ingested their own eggs and incubated them in their stomachs.
Their eggs and tadpoles were covered in a hormone which suppresses production of acid in their mother's stomach, but half of the eggs the mother frog lays never develop into tadpoles meaning she either never eats them or they are digested before her stomach is shut down completely.
Once the eggs develop into tadpoles the mother frog gives birth by vomiting them up one at a time over the course of a week, or all at once if she is in danger.
And there's a toad (Pipa pipa) that has its eggs land on its back, then grows the skin on its back to envelop the eggs, and then later when they are developed, they erupt from the back of the toad

NO ONE CAN EXPLAIN WHY THIS SERIES IS LITERALLY THE BEST THING ON RUclips AND I LOVE IT
I just randomly thought about this videos potential existence 10 minutes after you posted it. RUclips must have sent me a special priority psychic notification for something so important.
One day before it was posted I thought”man we need Alien Biospheres again” someone heard my prayer.
I need to say, I thought about this series just yesterday.
It’s not just the main part of the video getting better, the extra art is an amazing touch and is always improving!

With time with fluffy alien monsters, so cute.
I was thinking. With the constantly depleting atmospheric H2S, the “plants would be at risk of going extinct even with proliferating sulfur reduction bacteria. Then I thought about how cows produce copious amounts of methane as waste byproducts almost to the point of contributing to climate change when factory farmed (which is so sad btw). What if, to deal with the excess waste sulfur produced by the plants, the herbivores of this world evolved a symbiotic relationship with the sulfur reducing bacteria similar to how we have our own gut biome. The excess H2S would be released through flatulence or some other way. I know it’s childish to talk about but farts evolved for a reason. Also, this may be how they consume such acidic water that would cover the planet. Sorry posting this a third time.
Big Red Maniac It’s really a relevant idea! You should talk about it in the Discord rather than here, you will have more chance to reach the creator.
You should post this as much as You can, this is a brilliant idea!
Just a point on the cows, methane produced by them is actually a major contributor to climate change, to the point where they are the agricultural industry's largest source of greenhouse gas emissions. I think globally the agriculture industry accounts for around 20% of greenhouse gas emissions.
It's a great idea, don't be sorry for reposting it
There are sulfur mining operations around volcanos, it is difficult and dangerous since humans are not built to process sulfur. But these animals would find such a place a to be really good. High sulfur in the air would imply even higher amounts of sulfur in the ground.
The camel is actually incredibly interesting, as it likely attained its large body size due to an abundance of food (which it was exclusively able to consume) in its original habitat, the american south west, before it migrated and successfully colonized other desert regions.
The camel hump is also interesting, as it likely evolved as an adaptation to very cold, rather than very dry, climates: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camel#Evolution
Camels are from America?!
Ben Thomason yeah, they’re adapted to eating plants there that no other animal on the planet can eat. They migrated across the Bering land bridge in the opposite directions humans did
Ben Thomason they are though the native ones became extinct on account of when humans came from Asia.
@@alsatusmd1A13 I thought they were related to llamas?
This is the first episode I saw in this series. After watching this one I went back and watched the rest. It was interesting seeing these creatures progress from the two basic body plans to their current design. Having know what some later creatures looked like allowed me to notice traits developing in the early ancestors. Kind of like looking at an evolutionary tree and recognizing where certain parts of modern day animals first appeared.
Great series, would recommend to anyone.
Man, i have to Say It, this Is one of the most fascinating series i ever watched. Following the evolution of this imaginary world helps to dream about the life that i hope we'll discover amidst the stars.

The quality of this series is really incredible, and has been since the very beginning. The sheer amount of work put into this to deliver such a detailed, refined, and high-quality product is really one-in-a-million.

Also would it be theoretically possible to see in real life a Giganthropic sauropod? There are several species of non-avian dinosaurs that are believed to have lived in temperate and polar clinates, Like Nanuqsaurus, Yutyrannus and possibly (most likely not) Cryolophosaurus.
Nanuqsaurus and Yutyrannus both survived the cold primarily through their feathers. But in a group of creatures without fur or feathers of any kind would that still be possible?

Seals and Walruses are a good example of fur-less polar animals.

Thank you for your work on this!
A suggestion to make your model work: If the East and West regions of the continent have "rain shadow", that means atmospheric circulation carries humidity inward on both sides, so the circulation would need to escape the continent in the north and/or southern parts of the continent. This would either mean those currents lose humidity while travelling inland, consequently diverting and carrying hot desert air north/south (colliding near the coast with colder currents and creating tropical / humid regions (high pressure areas, year round rainfall or close to it), or there would be no desert formation in the first place in those regions (making deserts more likely to form in the corners, in the form of steppes / tanga). Just a few notes. In any case, the atmospheric circulation needs work to fit your current model.
The barrier mountain regions on the map that cover the east and west coast make that an unworkable model. The weather circulation has always been north-south when the land environment is covered because of that.
Ok lystrocherids vs techopods might be the significant question :
Techopods have feathers , a placenta and are endotherms with the ability to hibernate ...
Lystrocherids are proficient diggers , have developed eyes , and are near developing a multi staged metamorphosis ...
I am not saying they'll fight for ecological nieches afther a mass extinction ...
I am just saying that i bet on these two guys to survive a mass extinction that whipes out most of the primitive megafauna ...
And that then they will also have plenty of opportunities to evolve and develop ...

A little late to the party, but the main reason why camels are so strange regarding their body size is because they aren’t native to the desert. Camels are closely related to llamas, and share a common ancestor around the same region. However, during the last Ice Age, the camels migrated across America and over the Beringia land bridge into Asia and eventually into the Sahara Desert. This is also why there are camels in both the Gobi Desert and similar Asian deserts and also in Africa. This, along with human domestication and use of camels for desert transportation, led camels to conquer the deserts to the point where today we see them simply as native animals, when in reality they have very little adaptations to desert environments but in some regards were preadapted to arid climates via their water storing fat and they’re ability to chew basically anything even hardy thorny cactuses.
