- The earth formed about 4.5 billion years ago.
And over time they have been developing numerous forms of life. Several species disappeared. Others have continued to evolve and are still part of our ecosystem today. Among all the animals that inhabited planet earth throughout its existence are the dinosaurs. We know of its existence thanks to the many fossils that were found. It is well known that there were dinosaurs of all types and sizes. The largest that was the size of a building. To the little ones who would be the size of a rabbit. In this video we will focus on the dinosaurs that stood out for being true kings of their time. Be it for your speed, size, intelligence or brute force. See now. The dinosaurs of prehistory.
Ankylosaurus
His name means armored lizard. It lived during the Cretaceous period in the locality that is now North America.
It had a body totally protected by armor.
And it had a huge mass on its tail.
Which he used to use to confront his enemies.
In the end it was a quiet animal, which used its formidable defenses to deter its enemies.
Allosaurus
The Alosaurus lived at the end of the Jurassic period where the United States and Portugal are currently. His head was light.
But his jaws had 70 spear-shaped teeth.
They had to face gigantic dinosaurs.
Pentaceratops
This dinosaur lived in North America. His appearance was incredible to the other dinosaurs. He had three horns on his head, a strong beak and thorns on his tail. He walked in packs. Because he was a herbivore, he used his beak to pluck the plants off the ground.
Carnotauro
This dinosaur lived at the end of the Cretaceous period in what is now South America. Paleontologists determined that it had a formidable sense of smell. That ran at high speed. And that his skin had crocodile-like scales. And that he had small eyes so he would not be hurt while fighting.
Velociraptor
You should know the speed of this animal thanks to the movie in the movies. But the film has some inaccuracies. In the first part of the saga, paleontologists find the dinosaur skeleton in the Montana desert. What is impossible. Because this animal lived in the desert of Asia. His appearance also distorts reality. The dinosaur had a feathered body, especially on the forearms. He had 28 teeth per jaw.
Utahraptor
He lived in the town that is now the state of Utah. It was relatively small. It was 7 meters long.
And it weighed 600 pounds. It had an incredible claw, 24 inches long. Scientists discovered that just like his relative, he was covered in feathers. But do not be fooled.
He was a dangerous animal.
Tyrannosaurus rex
The most famous of all prehistoric dinosaurs. Its name means: king lizard. He lived in the locality that is now North America. It had teeth that were 19 centimeters long and could reach up to 30 centimeters in length.
Turning him into the dinosaur with the best teeth. His teeth could exert pressure on his prey from 3 to 5 tons. On the other hand, paleontologists do not know what their actual velocity was. But it probably reached 54 kilometers per hour.
Carcharodontosauro
This dinosaur lived in the locality that is now Africa. Its name means, sharp tooth reptile. Besides, he was extremely fast. Able to run at a speed of 9 meters per second.
Giganotosaurus
This predator dinosaur lived in the locality that is now Argentina. He was so big that he ate animals the size of a Tyrannosaurus. Despite this, he had a weakness. His size prevented him from running. Paleontologists confirmed this when they found their femur.
Spinosaurus
If you watched the movie, you will remember the dinosaur.
It was the largest carnivore among all known dinosaurs.
He had a long, narrow head. And over his eyes they had small crests. They had large spinal extensions in the vertebrae of his back. The largest can reach 2 meters in length. There is a whole discussion about its usefulness.
He spent so much time in the water; as on earth. It was similar to a current crocodile. Their main prey were the dinosaurs that fed on fish in the rivers.
After watching this video, you may be thinking of being a paleontologist. But remember, you can end up in the desert. Or in some other place not pleasant.
