Keystone Engineers! Beavers of Kaimere
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 окт 2024
- As ecosystem engineers and keystone species that provide habitat for thousands of other species, the importance of beavers cannot be overstated. In Kaimere, these rodents have a long history, but only recently have they established themselves amongst the engineers of Kaimere's wetlands.

It’s easy to imagine that beavers will wait around nearby titanosaur herds, waiting for them to push trees over for them.
I admit I chuckled hard on the "absolute madman" beaver lmao
BUILD YOUR DAM, BUDDY! YOU CAN DO IT!
Plot twist: It wasn’t the First Childrens that created the Celestial Walls, it was the Beavers who created it to specifically block out Dam-Destroying Dinosaurs
Their great monument
@@TalesofKaimere Here is a idea for video Bovines of Kaimere : Plains Cattle - Descendant of Żubron ( Hybrid between Wisent and Domestic Cattle ) . Found in all prairies and steppes of Kaimere . Big and strong cattle. They are prey to dinosaurs , big birds and carnivorious mammals .
@@TalesofKaimere Kaimere Water Buffalo - descendant from wild asian water buffalo and domesticated water buffalo hybrids . Can be founded in freshwater lakes and swamps and wetlands of Kaimere . Excellent swimmers , they can can swim for thousand miles . 2 ) Kaimere forest bison - Descendant from European Bison/Wisent that was brought to Kaimere . They can grow up to 2.8 to 3.3 m (9.2 to 10.8 ft) in length just like their earth ancestors .3 ) Kaimere Yak - Descendant from wild yak . Same size as their earth ancestors, although some of them can grow up to the size of the largest aurochs . They are very agressive and territorial . 4 ) Kaimere Kouprey - descendant from kouprey that was brought to Kaimere . Size as the largest american bison . Their habitats are Kaimere jungles , swamps , lakes and wetlands. 5 ) Kaimere Saltwater Buffalo - descendant from European water buffalo ( Bubalus Murrensis ) .
I love the annoyed face the beavers have when the kurajaku destroyed their dam
Dudes just like ‘yes that’s it stick to the ramp you clumsy bastard I swear if you veer an inch…’
Titanosaur: just minding its own business...
Beaver: I accept your challenge!
( Also the music is amazing and fits this video extremely well!..)
Thank you! Love Epidemic Sounds they have so much great stuff that you can find just by keyword searching for your vibe
Kaimere is genuinely the coolest thing
Thank you!!!
@@TalesofKaimere Question. Are there any Triassic representatives on Kaimere. Such as Tanystropheous or Drepanosaurus? Triassic Reptiles are my favorite group of creatures (Just above basal Synapsids) and I would love to hear if my favorite fictional setting includes them! Much Love ♡
Beavers: "Fine! I’ll give you a slide! Bloody spoiled-rotten dragons…"
Wetlands for everyone! Beavers are amazing at what they do, and they do it "dam" well.
Dam right they do!
@@TalesofKaimere LOL
Beavers are my favorite rodents, although I've never seen one in real life. The Eurasian beaver went extinct here in Bulgaria about 150 years ago, but last year their presence was confirmed by camera traps at an area near the Danube river. They most likely entered from Romania, but I hope that they'll manage to reclaim more territories in the coming years.
I like their diversity in Kaimere. The burrowing beaver was a welcomed surprise. And ofcourse the dam-builders add to the roster of ecosystems engineers in the known world.
That’s cool that there might be a return of beavers to your country! Very exciting to hear. Yeah studying for this video gave me a greater appreciation for their impact and past diversity.
@@TalesofKaimere Yeah, like wolf, beavers are one of many species who return by themselve from some years into lands where their were once be extirpate by humans.
I think my two favorites are the Biting Sloth and the, not really a beaver, Sea Beavers.
Sea beavers were really fun to design I’m glad they’re getting so much positive feedback! And I’m also glad everybody loves the biting sloth. He’s just a little guy doing his best and honestly deserves it
Beavers! Cool, they are so funny looking in the pictures, they got tons of meme potential in Kaimere. Is this the first time someone mixed beavers with dinosaurs? And why does it work so well? XD
I don’t know if I’m first but I love the combination! The memes I’ve already gotten have been delicious people really seem to dig the concept!
ARK has them but not to this extent
I really appreciate how you've created this fantasy world that's not exactly an alternate Earth nor quite an alien planet and also has a kind of scientifically grounded magic system, it's super creative and inspiring!
Thank you!!
“Dam” -that one beaver to the kurujaku
yo can someone sponsor a video on the flightless tapejarids i miss them
Let’s gooooooo beavers
Hell yeah!
Aaaaah! I love beavers!! And I love this!
I absolutely love Beavers. Great to see them thrive in Kaimere in many species.
Absolutely! Always liked them but studying for this episode made me really appreciate and admire them!
Haha - my favorite scene is definitely the little sad beaver-chus (6:17 and 11:17) just watching hopelessly the living boat that's 4-5 trophic levels above them passing through. Never ever thought of a world where beavers and megaraptorans would collide. Thank you for sharing your work, as always.
Haha absolutely! Was a ton of fun sketching those
I need a short story from the POV of a beaver in Kaimere. Never thought such a thing could occur. But i need it.
Haha would be very fun. Poor man works so hard and gets no respect from local titans.
Sea beavers are suggestive. I like to imagine themselves in a remote future as pinnipedes - like or even cetacean - like
Heck yeah! A lot more diverse on the Eastern continent so will probably see some with even more sophisticated marine adaptations
Now I'm just imagining the beavers just sitting there depressed after a large dinosaur tramples their dam for the second time today.
It’s nice to see videos of what we would consider mundane animals in as much abundance as the more derived or exotic creatures that we are generally more drawn to! One thing that I love about Kaimere’s beavers is mixed reception by humans the world-over, as I just finished reading a study concluding that, with regards to biodiversity, beavers have a near equal amount of positives and negatives, depending on the observed species they effect! Love the dragon slides as well- have any Kaimerans, especially those in the Seridic Wetlands, thought to replicate those structures in order to better coexist with the Kurajaku? Wonderful video, be sure to take care, and have a wonderful beaver day!!!
That’s a great question! Sometimes they cohabitate with animals, sometimes they cull, and sometimes they relocate. Really depends on the opinions of the villagers, what resources they have, and if they can afford to move.
Beaver to Kurajaku: "thank you for using the slide i give you. It's much more civilised than breaking down the dam, don't you think?
‘Dam decent if you, sir.”
You are such an icon in the field of speculative biology and sci-fi worldbuilding. You’ve actually inspired me to create my very own sci-fi story.
Thank you!!
And the very best of luck on your project!
Beavers and Kurujaku arer maybe not friend but at least, like the black and white picture from you that show the two togethers show us, they learn to live together in a way.
Beavers made some water passages for him so that he can make his rounds in the rivers, or else modified part of their dam so that the Kurujaku can pass over it by crawling without damaging it.
In exchange, the Kurujaku does not eat the beavers, anyway, he does not pay attention to them when he passes in front of them. It is not a regular predator of beavers, because in any case its diet consists mainly of completely aquatic and not semi-aquatic prey and beavers are anyway animals too small in size for the kurujaku to take the trouble to get tired of catching them.
So, on Kaimere, in the Known World area, there are 4 beavers species :
- two species of current modern beavers who descend from a Eurasian Beaver specie from the Pleistocene (the "Common Beaver" and the "Dark Browed Beaver").
- one specie of Giant Beaver who had a convergent evolution with the famous Castoroides to fitt the exact same apareance and ecology (the "Bearded Beaver").
- and one small specie of Bitting Beavers, who look exactly in appearance and ecology like the first introduce beavers genus on Kaimere planet the Palaeocastor (who lived like a current marmot or a prairie dogs), and who look unchanged in appaearance from this later (the Bitting beavers).
And don't known how are the others specie on Kaimere outside the Known World but i'm pretty excited for them !
This was a really cool episode that especially hits home with me because I have two beavers in the pond at my house.
That's so neat! I (clearly) think beavers are awesome and hold them in mad respect
@@TalesofKaimere they they're pretty cool.
Kaimere gotten more Canadian I see
Between these guys, the moose, and prevalence of wolves in the southern islands, the Great Canadian Takeover expands every day
Keenan Taylor's Tales of Kaimere are there any descendants of Tiktaalik in Kaimere?
The dinosaurs are cool, but man do I love seeing how mammals have adapted to living with them. The idea of beavers having to deal with large dinosaurs and thriving any way is amazing.
My Second Favourite Animal Yay!
They’re so cool!
I was surprised that beavers are found in kaimere in greater diversity than on earth, very creative on each one you come up with
Thank you! Was so much fun to work on!
Well, one more mammal who was succesfull in the Tyrant dynasty...
The entire Nn-Therian mammals is one subject that most, if not, all of those who like Kaimere would Love to explore.. One day.
It’s on the roster!
@@TalesofKaimere Good to know. Please take care, and until then, peace out!
@Marshal Marrs big cats
It's true that beavers are very important keystone species everywhere they're lived. It's not intentional on their part at all to give all the positives results the environnment around them received. First, if they create dams to level up the water level of a river or a pond, it's to be sure that they're nest, a hut made of wood, clay, bog, grass and everything they can use to consolidate this basement, still alway indeed half submerged. Like that, the the entrance and exit of the hut is always under water and always remains 100% safe and efficient way protected from predators who cannot reach them at all because none of them go so far as to swim and dive under water in an attempt to enter through said entrance/exit submerged from the hut (at least those in North America and Eurasia on land, I don't know if on Kaimere, some of you can join them directly but I imagine that fortunately not).
It is from there that beavers unwittingly render service to nature. By spanking the water level up, there is more water and the aquatic area becomes larger, which says water and more water says life and more life and many fauna and flora species Aquatic, semi-aquatic (regular tides, swamp, rivers or not) or entirely terrestrial can benefit from this resource-rich area. Whether it is to live there, rest, reproduce there and many other things. Animals light enough to climb on it without damaging the dam also often use the latter to cross from one end to the other the river or the lake (obviously larger and widened after the installation of the beavers).
The beavers are generally not at all bothered by other species and continue to develop the place year after year, improving it and reconsolidating it further.
The beavers, by making the trees fall near the rivers, also allow, like the Titanosaurs although in a less significant way compared to them, to free up space and to ventilate the zones by creating kinds of clearings also favorable to many species of all kinds.
In any case, beavers are and remain extremely intelligent, high imaginative to resolve problems (they even can walk on their two hind legs on good distances to use their two arms to transport and bring back materials for their construction and use their flat quue to consolidate and flatten elements and not only to swim), very strategic, adaptable, sensitive, hardy, diligent, determined, hardworking, courageous animals who are perceived as a model to follow and who have not stolen their reputation, largely deserve, accomplished builders, dignified and proud, tireless, stubborn, calculating, as well as heads of mules who do not shrink from any obstacle !
In many ways, beavers are very close to us in many aspects !
Sea beavers!? 😮👍 Also interesting relationship between beavers and those semiaquiatic Titanosaurs!😆😅 😂 Meme Simpson XD
The memes I’ve been sent have been so delectable lol
In every fantastical/Fantasy world like World Of Warcraft, the Universe of World of Narnia, the french "Terre D'Arran" BD serie (with "Nains", "Efles", "Orc et Gobelins" and "Mages") from Soleil Edition, the Harry Potter Universe, or any others Heroic-fantasy world, there alway, in term of fauna, mix of current living generic animals with lengendary animals like dragons, griffins, etc.. and invented creatures "endemic" and proper to each of these universe (for example : the Thestral winged dragon horses are creature who appears only in Harry potter universe and made specifiquely for these books).
And we have all this three category here for Kaimere. So, on this aspect, Tales of Kaimere is quite conventional and conservative compared to other earlier works that one is used to seeing !
9:06 Seaver.
On Earth or Kaimere, we humans just can't resist our love for sweet scented beaver butt oil.
It’s just… so good
I like the fact that in fact, for most of the animals groups your videos aspeak about and revealed to be on Kaimere, they're alway more than the species mentionned in the dedicated videos in question ! Because here you said that all the species showing here are species of beavers who can meet in the Known World area, but they're maybe one or two others species that live in this region too, who know ? And there more than these 4 four species in the entire planet surface, and even more diversified in number outside this area !
And this logic is applicable and alreday in application for every others animals groups outside the ones where you clearly said that there really only this limited species number for these groups because they're badly were not enough adaptable (ex: the Elephants/Proboscidian like best example).
Because fact is that it's impossible for every Speculative Evolution/Biology Project of any kind to mentioned and present the entire totality of organic life specie on a entire planet surface ! Even our we haven't discovers yet the integrality of our planet total animals and plants species ! So every Spec Evo project like the one of your speak and present only the most representative and interesting species of each animals groups there is on the planet. It's that you made for the Parksosaurs groups, where many specie like the Pro-sauropods like Parksosaurs were mentionend but not showing much and describe more in deep. Or about the Hares, because such animals groups so adaptable, diverse in species number (to hundred or more species in total around the world) and who can have a high big number specie in one specific and/or small region can't be all shown and describe in one videos, and making videos in many part will be very long depending the animal groups in question (if you made one about rodent like mouse or rat of Kaimere, you will have for MANY longs month to pass every species in review), so only the ones and a limited species who can represent the others because they're so similar in appaearance or niche and ecology are described !
And you alway precise that all the creature we see are the species there are only inside the Knwon World region, so even after videos dedicated about this or that animal groups, you can freely added and describe others species of animals groups you already speak and made a video about it before !
So, here for example, when you will speak about the Eastern or North continent, you can present others species of beavers who lives in these areas, or even made a "Beavers of Kaimere part 2" about the species who lived in theses areas because you already made a video about the ones of the Known World area !
Commenting just to boost the video in RUclips's algorithm
Most appreciated!
It's great to see beavers thriving in Kaimere. Honestly, I knew they would, but I did not expect a digging one or a giant one. Nice to see that.
I am curious about three things:
1. What are their most frequent predators?
2. Besides titanosaurs and kurajaku, do beavers have to deal with other animals when building dams and lodges or do other animals leave them alone?
3. When titanosaurs knock down trees, does this make it easier for beavers to collect wood and other supplies, more difficult, or does it not make any difference?
Great questions!
1. Most frequent predator is probably the red panther (Dinofelis that lives like a jaguar). Snakes and crocodilians are a problem in their northern range, and aquatic hyaenodonts while not common in the known world do pose a pretty serious threat. Large fish are sometimes problems too.
2. Several parksosaur species also collect wood and make walled shelters of sorts, but that clade tends to prefer dry terrain so don’t intersect with beavers too much.
3. Titans and beavers can certainly cohabitate. Although I played up the conflict sketches because it made me laugh, the truth is that titans can happily have some flooded areas of their gardens and enjoy the high protein water plants, and beavers don’t mind the titans doing hours of hard work with a couple seconds to a minute of shoving (although this means that beavers aren’t controlling when and where the trees fall which they like to have control over lol)
@@TalesofKaimere hm, how come the Red Panther is their most frequent predator? Do they have the power to break through their Lodges?
@@OviraptorFan Mostly just a matter of proximity: red panthers are very analogous to jaguars and thrive in wetlands of Kaimere. They don't normally break into lodges, but will tackle beavers they find in the water or on shore.
@@TalesofKaimere I remember on earth that wolves and coyotes are the most frequent predators of beavers so do the canids in there range on Kaimere also hunt them?
The Castoroides is the most well known extinct fossil beavers specie, and the third most well known specie of beavers all confused after the two current living species of earth (the American and the Eurasian one).
Some people between us can be a little upset that this specie isn't or have any close relative in Kaimere, but the Bearded Beaver, despite being not a close relative and from a different lineage is exactly like him in every aspect of appearance and ecology ! So, it's EXACTLY LIKE if we have currently the real Castoroides, because it's his substitute on the planet.
It's also the same case for many others animals that many dream to have in Kaimere but some problems and constraints not allowed. For example, if we haven't spinosaurid of Spinosaurus hiself on Kaimere, we have the aquatic megaraptoran and the Kurujaku that subsitute them perfectly, and take also the role of the Dragons of this universe (because it's a rule that every fantastic universe must have his own Dragons in every way).
So, yes, in a way, we have what we want and we are completely satisfied by this methods !
It's especially clever and very imaginative at my opinion !
I bet these dudes would make great hats.
I mean.. good video!
Hahaha ruthless
Kiamere beavers: worshipped as creation spirits
Earth beavers: the patron animal of Canada and have a pop singer who won’t stop singing baby baby baby
Ah that range of portrayal lol
*intro
''BEAVERS ARE LARGE RODENTS''
*outro
Jokes aside another great video, love to see the lil guys trucking on :D
Haha I mean that just about covers it lol
@@TalesofKaimere idk the first line was said with such conviction and its like, thats totally true *nodding
Why was this recommended? Also beavers and dinosaur together? Yes please.
This is the way
Hey, man ! Maybe a day the Dam species Beavers will become Sapient as Human/Kaimeran and build their own society, like in "Timberborn" game (2021) 😆🤣
In any case, this still a fun concept ! 😁
I think it's cool you have beavers in Kaimere. I see American beavers all the time in Louisiana making their dams in the swamps. But I think the different species of beavers do look unique
I noticed in the thumbnail there are several jurazhents that lack their display structures. Are those females or is it a case of not wanting to overly detailed background subjects?
Those are all subadults. The females also have display structures and are pretty combative, but they don’t throw down as often or enthusiastically as males.
@@TalesofKaimere ah, I see.
Will we get a video focused on non-therian mammals?
Eventually yes! Not on the immediate horizon but before the Eastern continent I want to do a special on them, especially given all the excitement they’ve gotten!
@@TalesofKaimere cool, i really wanna know what that Carnivorous Hare looking thing is.
@@the_chosen_one5642 It's probably an Ekaltadeta, or "Killer Kangaroo," a carnivorous relative of rat-kangaroos.
Actually learned some stuff about beavers.
Right? Studying them this week was super enlightening, and I didn’t even talk about how good their booty juice is
How do the Free States and Qajarith view the ecological effect of beaver dams, as well as how the Pakardiant and Arvelith reverence of beavers?
Free States and Qajar (more the Republic, the peoples tend to appreciate beavers) see beavers as a menace, flooding good farmland
will we ever get a video on the titanosaurs and potential other sauropods on kaimere?
A video on titans is in the works! Just takes a long time to draw them
@@TalesofKaimere cool!
Before this video, and since the video aboutt the Pigs of Kaimere, I did not understand why the Portal had introduced Cenozoic creatures before the end of the Tyrant Dysnaty.
And since you clearly said and specified that the Tyrant Dynasty ended both on earth and Kaimere in terms of geologic time 15 million years ago, at the beginning of the Upper Miocene technically, only the time periods after that geological period and the animals that should have been in the latter had to be taken into account to potentially be on kaimere since the portal did not start harvesting again after the extinction which caused the end of the Tyrant Dysnasty which caused a great decrease in the organic species number (exluding to ask for Paleogene (with Paleocene, Eocene) animals species if there are in Kaimere) .
But since you reveal here that there were an others event that making a decrease, not very important but sufficient to provoque others smalls harvest from the portal before the Tyrant Dysnasty Extinction event, that make sens that Cenozoic creatures from period of time BEFORE the Upper Miocene, like the Oligocene time period.
But HERE is my new QUESTION : this 31 millions years ago harvest is the first and oldest Cenozoic Harvest of the Portal ? or Was there other harvest before the Oligocene period and this 31 million years ago Harvest, during the Paleogene period (with Paleocene, Eocene) and are there on Kaimere by this fact and logic suriving creatures from theses specific Cenozoic times periods (like little three hoof horses, Gastornis, Uintatherium, Brontotherium, Basilosaurus, Ambulocetus, Leptictidium, Boverisuchus's descendants) ?
I know the megafauna justifiably get all the attention, but what's the state of invertebrates in kaimere (apart from the giant eurypterids). Are trilobites prevalent, and filling up niches occupied by insects? Are ammonites prevalent?
Definitely will have ammonites, trilobites likely. I know a lot about megafauna, particularly dinosaurs and mammals, so I don’t have to do as much studying as I will for reptile and arthropod videos. They will happen, but since more work will be involved, need to wait a bit
Humans: Making fish ladders to allow fish to swim up river to reproduce.
Beavers: Make Kura Jaku slide, to stop the damn things from tearing holes in the dam to get past.
will you also make a more in-depth video on titanosaur and their gardens ?
Absolutely! It’s a critical topic and definitely defines the most widespread habitat in the known world. Just a matter of setting up the time since it takes a long time to draw them with all them osteoderms lol. I couldn’t have made iconic megafauna easier to draw apparently 💀
@@TalesofKaimere Awesome, I kinda adopted your idea in my own fantasy novel, where there’re “troll’s garden”, created by the trolls when they move in the forest fertilizing with their dung … in my word troll are sentient more developt Megatherium that live in a more savage state
Interesting how the beavers will make slides for the kurijaku! Was there any real-world inspiration for this?
Mostly that humans sometimes add pipes and slides to dams to try and work with beavers and they usually seem to leave them alone, so I figured something similar could be a compromise between beavers and theropods weighing 4-12 tons lol
@@TalesofKaimere Cool! Unfortunate that beavers don’t build their own slides irl for moose or something 😞. Although I’m not sure why they would need too. Overall, nice addition!
Love the video, not common to see some beaver love.
They deserve all the love
I like the specie who ressemble exactly like their first ancestors, here whith the Bitting Beaver, because they'revery interesting and show really good how the groups of animals and his members evolved over time and to get the differents forms from a single base form.
It's like the Muntjack species for the Cervidae/deer order or the Lemurs for the Primates/Apes order who are not the directs ancestors of these laters but the sister group of the true ancestors of these laters that sort of stop evolving and still in physical appearances overall unchanged physically speaking and become living examples and goods ideas/viewsof how the real ancestors look like at their time !
So, there very important that primitive and basal species still alive, because they give truly important and interesting studies about all their entire orders in question.
You mentioned Kurajaku tearing up beaver dams to restore the flow of rivers, but do other dinosaurs tear up beaver dams to get at the tasty beavers inside? If so, how have Kaimeran beavers adapted their behavior/dam building/senses to deal with this threat otherwise absent on Earth?
Probably not often. The lodges may not protect their scent, but they're quite strong. I'm sure it's happened but not frequently.
Do the Qajarith moderate their beaver hunts? I hope they realize that, though unintentionally annoying, beavers are keystone species
The direct ancestor of us primates diverged from the common ancestor of modern rodents a staggering 96 million years ago - although placental, so less "alien" than extinct multituberculates and extanct marsupials, they're still quite distant from us.
Didn’t know it was that far back! Knew out common placental ancestor wasn’t 65 mya as is often misrepresented, but I didn’t realize it was almost 100 mya. That’s wild!
@@TalesofKaimere It's pretty crazy marsupials diverged 160 million years ago when it was still the Jurassic (an already bygone era to the T-Rex).
In a world populated by fantastical creatures, it's incredible to see how beavers fare in it.
My dudes are thriving lol
@@TalesofKaimere Indeed. I already inquired elsewhere how the sea ones would contend with the likes of seals and otters, and it's fascinating how others contend with hippos.
Please make a sauropod video
It’s on the roster! Hopefully next month
Imagine clash between sea beaver and sea badger. Both marine creatures named after mammals they are not closely related to.
We love these beavers!
We want to eat at least a few hundred!
We want to hug the largest ones!
Beavers are amazing! Xd
I find that opening image so hilarious, but I just can’t pin down an exact reason or collection of reasons as to why. I think in part it’s due the “expression” on the beaver, like I’m projecting a “Bruh” moment on this image. If it wasn’t a native species to Kaimere, I’d imagine the beaver was a recent arrival going “Wtf are these idiots doing?”
Haha it was fun to make. Just disbelief
I wonder if some Kurujaku use the beaver slides for fun only?
They absolutely do!
i LOVE Beavers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Heck yeah! They’re so cool!
Aawww their so cute
( btw wanna hear about the beavers and beaver nich animals )
Hit me up!
@@TalesofKaimere ok I’ll start with the beavers them selves
The common beavers
Their just normal beavers :/ sorry
The greater beaver ( zongop )
Now these guys are descendants of the extinct castaroids beavers but now they build dams out of different trees from the normal common aspin chewing beavers but these guys can bite through red wood bark and even use mud and spit as glue to stick the sticks so they can stick together ( they have been know to scare off hippos in the biodome )
Their as big as a volts wagon beetle
And as long as a two bolts wagons beetles
And finally the final rodent
Is not a beaver
The zonfogo
This guy is the descendant of the joelphoborus and they have evolved to fit the role of a giant beaver that can bite through the stone trees ( they are trees I made up who are as hard as stone ) and they have adapted thumbs to hold hole branches but with their buck teeth they have little bits of Steel in them and their tails are more beaver like now
Their are big as a small elephant
Now we head to the seas To meat our next creature
With the eel beaver
They are a species of otter with long and sharp front incisor teeth ( making people think they are beavers ) they eat drift wood and fish
Now we land on the Permian and Triassic islands to see
The lesser zondro
They are the descendants of the
Hyperdaptodon and they have fit the roll of a beaver back on the islands and with have evolved webbed feet and Fluked tail
Their as big as a jeep
And their 40 ft long
The greater zondro
It’s basically the last one but covered in moss
and big as a truck
And 60 ft long
If only beavers had the capability to build gates in their dams, which they’d open and close with the comings and goings of titanosaurs
Oh to be a beaver on Kaimere. I’d scream if a dinosaur wrecked my dam
They deserve to be little balls of fury when it goes down but nah they chill just get back to work
>Sea Beavers
>Not Seavers
You Sicken Me
Are you gonna do a ovuraptorasaur special for Easter ?
Don’t currently have anything planned for Easter but that might change if I get time for something quick
@@TalesofKaimere ok :/ cool
Oh yeah castoreum! The stuff that gets you the mad cash in Red Dead and that one Assasin's Creed game lol. Is the cas from the bearded beavers better than from smaller ones?
Less the quality as quantity: they produce a lot more in one animal and it makes mad cash
I should have ask this earlier so I'm asking it now? Are the makers of silent the descendant of the long legged amphibian from the first dynasty.
Actually from the smaller arboreal one, but the long legged one is a more basal member of the same clade!
@@TalesofKaimere oh okay but at least I make some connection before you officially announced it.
The titanosaurs and Kurajaku will be real sorry when the greatest beaver shows up and bites their head off
The beaver god will show no mercy
The real question is, how are the Platypus doing?
At the moment they aren’t present but that may change
@@TalesofKaimere I hope that will be sompe specie of Monotreme in Kaimere, or others mammals order that lay eggs (because yes, others mammals order that lay eggs existed during the Mesozoic).
🎵Père Castor, raconte nous une histoire🎵
This Old generic ! I'm so nostalgic :)
Are big digging parksosaurs danger to dams as well?
They can be, although digging parksosaurs tend to prefer dry terrain. The prosauropod mimic ‘builder’ clade do sometimes take beaver logs for their own structures, although they also usually prefer dry terrain.
@@TalesofKaimere ok, thanks
So if ground squirrels are in kaimere does that mean marmots are also on the planet?
Yes there are several Kaimeran marmots
That’s pretty cool, my friends and I like marmots because they are cute and make funny noises
In 9:14, I know Keenan was talking about an error made by the world's naturalists, but wouldn't "taxon" be a better term overall?
Well lumping into the beaver clade includes the giant beaver as well as Castor. Taxon can apply to higher than the genus level so I could have said that, but I felt clade better reflected that it’s a lump into the beaver group, they’re not saying it’s in Castor or the equivalent in Kaimeran cladistics. Taxon or clade can both work but I still think clade makes more sense.
@@TalesofKaimere K see, I was considering the polyphyletic taxon (not at all a clade) that would be formed by the true beavers + the multituberculates
Speaking of which, what other portals were activated during the Tyrant Dynasty?
This was the only major one
@@TalesofKaimere I mean aside from the Oligocene portal?
@@TalesofKaimere Yes, because medium or large Cenozoic mammals must don't really thrive very long in a world overdominated by large herbivores and carnivorous reptiles, but small ones like Mesozoïc mammals have no real problems.
@@TalesofKaimere Was there others Portal harvests before Oligocene period and the one specific 31milion years aga harvest mentionned in this video (Paleogene era with the Paleocene and Eocene periods) with the animals that livrd in theses specific times period (little three hoofs horse, Gastornis, Boverosuchus/Pristichampsus, Uintatherium, Mesonyx, Ambulocetus, Basilosaurus, Dorudon, Moeritherium, Brontotherium, etc...?) ?
do you have a video about capybaras?
Nope! Although capybaras aren’t in Kaimere (their genus evolved 2-3 million years after the SA harvest) other cavies are planned for similar size and niche.
@@TalesofKaimere Good, because the South American rodents are really interesting creatures !
@@TalesofKaimere Well youcan a species that evolved the same features as capybaras
can magic instead bugs/etc replace high levels of oxygen to become big even sapient dragonflies Evo their bodies act like reptile/ mammal. effect on their bodies when they're damaged. dragonflies are the smarts bugs maybe the giant bugs can regrow their wings? idea

BEAVER!!!!!
can you do a video on primates
It’s on the roster! Gotten a lot of requests for it. Will probably be dedicating a month to it, with episodes on prosimians, monkeys, apes, then humans.
So, on Kaimere, in the Known World area, there are 4 beavers species :
- two species of current modern beavers who descend from a Eurasian Beaver specie from the Pleistocene (the "Common Beaver" and the "Dark Browed Beaver").
- one specie of Giant Beaver who had a convergent evolution with the famous Castoroides to fitt the exact same apareance and ecology (the "Bearded Beaver").
- and one small specie of Bitting Beavers, who look exactly in appearance and ecology like the first introduce beavers genus on Kaimere planet the Palaeocastor (who lived like a current marmot or a prairie dogs), and who look unchanged in appaearance from this later (the Bitting beavers).
And don't known how are the others specie on Kaimere outside the Known World but i'm pretty excited for them !
