this was such a wonderful series! I love that theyre showing everything that lived in the cretaceous, not just the dinosaurs. And also i love the "planet earth" documentary style. i wish they'd dedicate a season (or more) to other time periods like the Permian too. The Permian period is often reduced to the great dying, which sure is interesting, but we do need a more peaceful, quality documentary like this one.
Birds are very much under represented though. Just got a first taste of what mega diverse the avian world already was before K-Pg extinctions. Already flightless birds evolved, for example. Basically, sal bird strategies that developed after the mass extinctions, already had existed before that, but only ground dwellers , burrowing birds survived the onslaught.
Fun Fact: In Jurassic Park, it's said that the scientist got Dino DNA from mosquitoes trabbed in amber. This means that the DNA used to make the Mozasaur in Jurassic World was from a mosquito who knows how to swim to suck the blood of a Mozasaur which eventually got stuck on an amber.
That largest ichthyosaur title actually belongs to the 25 m long Ichthyotitan, and the Shonisaurus/Shastasaurus sikanniensis specimen is estimated around 21 m long
It was a huge missed opportunity to have mahajangasuchus in either islands or especially swamp episode, cause they literally had Madagascar in it as well, but instead we end up with 2 completely unrelated segments in North America
I don't understand all these regional bias. I've tried almost everything i could just to watch this documentary but to no avail, I've seen short clips and trailers and its so frustrating i had to buy an iphone just to watch it and it turns out i can't because Apple tv is not supported in my country istg i felt like crying in that moment, everything i did didn't work and in the end it wasn't even supported in my country. This hurts more than a breakup ngl.
3:50 come on, guys! By now I`ve accepted that T-Rex had feathers but now y`all telling me that it would be afraid of *Skinny Pete* and its cousin? 🤦♂ And wouldn`t it be easier just to say 10 meters instead of 33 feet?
It's honestly one of the weirdest segments in the show. Tall scavengers avoid large predators because one hit and they die. This happens today, storks never dare challenge bears or big cats.
A distinction between frogs and toads is not made in scientific taxonomy, but is common in popular culture (folk taxonomy), in which toads are associated with drier, rougher skin and more terrestrial habitats. Scientifically speaking, they are the same phylum (Chordata), class (Amphibia), clade (Salientia), order (Anura). In other words, there is no toad, only frog.
@@gamergod6471that is where you're wrong. We know from a well-preserved specimen of the mosasaur Platecarpus that mosasaurs did have shark-like tail flukes.
Ah yes, in the end, an asteroid/meteor hit ONLY dinosaurs and left all the mammals free to live 😂 Can we just admit that theory doesn't work and come up with a different one please?
Except that there are dozens of animals that went extinct because of the asteroid impact. Entire group of animals went extinct, from flying and swikming reptiles like pterosaurs, plesiosaurs, mosasaurs to cephalopods like ammonites and belemnites, most toothed and ancient group of hirds to entire families of mammals, turtles, fishes, and plants. Those that survive is because they're fhe most adaptable, able to hide in burrows or underwater and small. The perceived errors of evolution are because of your ignorance.
Mammals at the time were small and lived in burrows, its a lot easier to survive an apocalypse when you're small, don't need much to eat, and stay sheltered from the outside.
yeah, I'm sure paleontologists haven't come up with an explanantion for such a basic question in all the centuries of development of the field. you conspirationists are so confidently dumb and arrogant, never ceases to amaze
@@leonardobslv It's interesting that you've automatically assumed I'm a "conspirationist" based off of the simple fact that I've brought up a doubt I have concerning this theory -- a valid doubt, in my opinion. Are scientists not humans? And can humans not be wrong, from time to time? So why does me questioning something make me dumb? I truly would like to hear your reasoning on this. You imply that specialists in the field will have thought of explanations for this question. Yet you give no examples. To me, it shows evidence you might put scholars on a pedestal. Science is supposed to start with asking a question, so discouraging that seems very counterproductive, don't you think?
@@samsungsmartfridge3173 I've done some research on this, and honestly what you say just doesn't seem correct -- there were supposed to have been mammals big enough to eat other dinosaurs (Repenomamus Giganticus) and some who couldn't have possibly been anything but tree-dwelling, like Volaticotherium, for instance.

true
Frogs will always be one of my favorite animals
Mine too! (Turtles also.)🐸🐢
@@oldladybird8528 all of them are delicious
They are very cool.
I love the frog feeding channels like frog time.

@@Harsh12able😂😂
In the games they sacrifice bones and whole skeletons for the dna of the dinosaurs
@@ADragonFruit440funny enough that is even more impossible since very few fossils have dna
Thats actually possible. There are some species of mosquito that feed mainly on fish that surface for a fraction of a second
That guy will be commentating animal documentaries even after he passes away.
In all seriousness, he probably will have a lot of posthumously-released content.
Thankyou Dinosaurs for making me a human being ❤️
You should thank the asteroid who wiped the dinosaurs out. 😂
@@0815HorstMore accurately, thank both!
I love dinosaur and prehistoric animal

And as they were before.
Does this mean the Walking with Beasts remake is confirmed?
Shastasaurus was an ichthyosaurus that was 20-25 meters long, could even be longer. Much bigger than the mosasaurus
But mosasaurus was the most powerful marine predator of all time
@@Tyranosaur678 No it wasn't. Livyatan Melvillei would it eat for breakfast with its foot-long teeth.
I’m pretty sure that they where referring to mosasaurs as the largest during their time

I love froggys 🐸
wow
That giant frog looks like the Ogdo Bogdo from Jedi Fallen Order or the giant frog (which happens to be a prince) from The Witcher Hearts of Stone.
Yes, most giant frogs do tend to look like giant frogs.
alguém podia dublar esses episódios são muito interessantes esse mundo pré-histórico

Battle Toad all the way
Frogs are so goofy

Trex likely didn't have feathers because it didn't really need them. I'm fairly sure the ones on this show lacked them as well.
Knowing it could easily destroy your eyes with a much more calculated stab? Yes.
A gigantic free meal that you could later go back to anyways is not worth getting your eyes pecked out over.
@@matthewbadger8685The ones in the show had them, just much more like peach fuzz as seen in elephants.
It's honestly one of the weirdest segments in the show. Tall scavengers avoid large predators because one hit and they die. This happens today, storks never dare challenge bears or big cats.
THE FROG ALWAYS COME BACK
And I thought bullfrogs were voracious eaters.
Are you sure that a frog but not a toad ?

evidence showing mosasaurus had shark tales
I meant to say there’s no evidence showing mosasuras had shark tales
There is evidence since 2013. Soft tissue impression of the tail fluke on a mosasaurid fossil.
@@gamergod6471that is where you're wrong. We know from a well-preserved specimen of the mosasaur Platecarpus that mosasaurs did have shark-like tail flukes.

Visuals are definitely a big step down from S1.
Untrue.
Having rewatched the series, not really.
Only noticeable iffy CGI are the Shamosuchus in the Shamosuchus segment.
Ah yes, in the end, an asteroid/meteor hit ONLY dinosaurs and left all the mammals free to live 😂
