Abelisaurs: Dinosaur Brutes

- Опубликовано: 2 сен 2021
- A video about the Abelisaurs. Usually overshadowed by the tyrannosaurs and other groups of theropod dinosaurs, I thought giving Abelisaurs the spotlight for once might prove interesting.

why?
What?
Evolution denier spotted, fairy tale believer dejected.
why is this pinned lmao
Yeah, i remember meeting that dude back in '87
Budget Tyrannosaur would be a good name for a band.
Good one 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😳 good idea,,
Intersting
Well I've got my next bandname.
I’m writing that down.
The funny thing is, the arms of a Tyrannosaurus looked tiny, but were still as strong as that of a very strong human.
They're also about a metre in length which isn't puny
@@kinnikuboneman but compared to body size, they are small
They would be much stronger than the strongest man. Their arm bones are as long and wide as a muscular human arm. Just the bones. Now add muscle on that and you have an extremely jacked tiny forelimb.
Do you think they could beat a man at arm wrestling? If they could be taught the rules ofc
I don't get what's funny..
That algorithm owes you a better position - Keep the fire burning!

I can't believe it. Every other channel that I start watching like this get's spam recommended to me, but with this channel it feels like the algorithm hates him or something.
@@bunkfoss50yearsago53 I had this guys great ape video in my recommended and don’t really watch this kind of stuff, so that has recently changed. also considering his subs have gone up like 5x recently based on the comments of his newest video
I love dinosaurs cause there's still so much mystery in how they even looked. Like the possibility of majungasaurus using it's small hands as display could be a thing, with feathers or maybe even skin flaps that were brighter underneath.
i like the idea of very long feathers, small mobile arms with long colorful feathers could be used in a mating dance to attract mates, or even in a show of dominance, like spreading them out to make them appear even larger, just a titan-like dark wall of roaring flesh and feathers.
Hahaha majungosaurus being cannibal and half of the time one would eat the other go brrrrrrrrrr
I Like Dinosaur because he big scary.
"I like seeing giant bones of creatures. Cuz then you , like, picture what it was like before it turned into giant bones."
"You phrased that REALLY weird. But, I know exactly what you're talking about."

Amen æl dimm thaRR
Bro, i have been watching it for months, if no more amd just now did i see that i wasn't subbed xD
But yes agree 100%
I need to play this video for my 4 year old, she loves ceratosaurus' and carnotaurus'!
My favorite dino too.
I’ve always wanted to know why kids have such a thing for dinosaurs. I’m guessing it’s the heavy marketing in media toys and tv, and the novelty that they’re all gone, so a lot is left to the imagination.
@@inthewoods5494 as a ex-little kid who loved dinosaurs to death, It was how they looked, how fascinating and cool they were and I'm still fascinated. It had nothing to do with toys. Also knowing that these giant reptiles used to exist on the same ground we stand on was just incredible to me.
I a very big fan of Ceratosaurus and Carnotaurus, mainly carno
@@xenosaur5660 I'd add that a big part of the fascination was how unworldly they seemed, yet they lived in the same world we did.
Also nice cacodemon profile pic, fellow doom enjoyer. You ready for the Horde Mode update?
I have such a weird and wonderful connection with this dinosaur by chance.
I grew up in northern Patagonia in Argentina, and my nanny growing up was the niece of Dr Abel, they guy who discovered this dinosaur and whose name it took.
For a kid of the 90's obsessed with Dinosaurs after watching the first Jurassic Park movie, that guy was the ultimate rockstar, he had a dinosaur named after him!!!
If you want or need pictures or photos of these dinosaurs to use in your videos I can send you some of the statues and reconstructions of the local museums here!
I would like to
Que loco encontrar por estos lares a un paisano que encima le gusta el mismo dinosaurio xDD me hiciste acordar cuando era chico y veía siempre que podía esa peli dando en canal 13, espero que sigas bien maestro te mando un abrazo grande!!!
VAMOOOOSSS MESSI
1:34 any other Monster hunter world players have flashbacks when they saw this picture of a prehistoric cucumber, otherwise known as the devil-jo
Yup, I was wondering for a moment if they based it on a Carnotaurus.
@@niklasl3880 Nah I think glavenus is a carnotaurus
@@gege9709 yeah those horns that glavenus has are way too similar to carno
@@mr.angryman3599 As well as his whole build as well. He just screams, CARNOTAURUS!
Pickle
Ah yes, the rocket-rex.
I can imagine carnotaurus Naruto running through their habitat chasing down prey
I can't unsee it!!! Damn you!
Bless, was thinkin that the whole frickin video
I can imagine the carno screaming charger sounds as it runs at its prey
If you ask me, Carnotaurus wasn't so well-adapted to bursts of incredible speed in order to outrun fleeing prey. If you look at the mid-sized herbivore fossils from Cretaceous South America, you'll find a lot of sauropods, which were not animals built for speed or maneuverability. They were, however, probably extremely dangerous and would almost definitely prefer to stand their ground against a predator.
I think the reason Carno could run so fast in one direction is because it needed to hit a sauropod before the sauropod could move to defend itself.
I think you’re right, but it wouldn’t be just to hit the Sauropod before it could move to defend itself, but to hit the sauropod before it was even detected. One of the best things about being super tall was being able to see a great distance, and while they might not have been big compared to rest of it, sauropod eyes were pretty big. I think the carnotaurus would’ve had to wait in cover until the sauropod dropped down to drink water or eat from large bushes, and then could’ve used it’s speed to attack without even being seen
@@bendover9813 I agree. Like any proper ambush predator it would be looking to strike when prey was at its most vulnerable.
I've heard some speculation about it using its horned head to strike prey while hunting; though I'd have a hard time believing it could knock over an adult sauropod no matter how fast it was running, maybe it could snap a neck by slamming into it.
Were that the case, the most apt description of a carnotaurus would not be a saurian cheetah, but instead a terrestrial falcon.
@@BetaCentauri13 it could’ve even been the dinosaur version of a King Snake, specifically going after other therapods. I can’t see it killing a long neck, but I can see it just about snapping a T-rex’s neck after running down a hill lol
Carnotaurus also lived alongside ornithopods (hadrosaurs and elasmarians) which might have been more appropriate prey.
@@Ozraptor4 Sure. Plenty of large pterosaurs I'm sure carno could have nabbed every once in a while, as well.
As an Argentinian and a fellow dinosaur entusiast I must say, carnotaurus and its family are my personal favorites. And I mean how could they noy be, they are cool as hell 👹
I think just we in southern hemisphere like our dinosaurs, can't blame them, tyrannosaurs are cool too. Pycnonemosaurus is still my favourite
I love the idea of how animals evolve decorative arms or feathers or something. Like there’s a whole species of vicious carnos with mating based on strength and power. But then, one day, a young male gets born with a mutation that makes his hands green. He starts flapping them around wildly and all the females are like, “woah that’s hot let’s mate with him”
Evry time he called abellasores a “ budget T. rex I wanted to scream as the carnatorus is one of my fave Dino’s ever
Abelisaurs have been growing on me for a couple years now (big spinosaurid fan), and the idea of their stubby little arms being used as display makes them so much cooler/ more fun for some reason.
The frontal view of the Abelisaur flashing his arms is one of the best things I've seen in a while
carno is my fav dino. I also call it a sausage on legs so glad you also call them that. I didn't know how far removed abelisaurs were from birds though.
I almost turned this off at "pepsi is better than coke" but I'm glad I stuck it out
But it is
Pepsi is more mellow
Pepsi
You don't like that he's speaking facts?
I can't believe so many have fallen for the lies of Big Soda 🐑🐏
I will personally punch anyone who disrespects Abelisaurs as dollar store Tyrannosaurs :)
Abelisaurs: Remember that time they Passed on you for Spiny in Jurassic Park 3, that was me Rexy, I was the one that ruined your audition.
Remember that time you were out grown by Gigantusaur that was me Rexy, I made you small.
ruclips.net/video/N-zj5wqJuq4/видео.html&ab_channel=BD
I like to think that carnotaurus used their horns and reinforced skull and spinal column as part of their hunting strategy, hitting their top speed and broadsiding prey, knocking them over, and biting the throat as the prey was in a vulnerable position. Also for fighting cause that's metal as fuck
my favorite good boy carnotaurus! it's great to hear a bit more about the whole gang.
as someone whose heard of dinos like carnotaurus and majungasaurus and thought they deserved more spotlight this video is awesome!!!
The flash is my favorite super hero I appreciate that analogy.
Bruh my Dyslexic ass thought this was about Allosaurus but I’m not disappointed.
Thank you for making this. Carnatorus is my favorite dino so I'm very happy to learn more about them and their cousins
Oh my god thank you so much for saying the arm feathers are 100% speculation, some people have been taking it as fact when it has no evidence at all
Yeah we have no evidence for most large therapods being feathered
We only have evidence for feathered smaller therapods and other species
Although speculation, it is reasonable to think these predators had a way to scare off bigger threats. In the drawing shown @8:40, it almost looks like the face of a far larger predator, the eyes being the feathers on it's arms. You see this in species of butterflies and frogs as an evolutionary defence mechanism. It would be a very interesting find if it was discovered to be real, not to mention, genius. Now to know if it was practical in it's era and environment, I don't know.
@@ataka2142 See the problem is you are just making stuff up there with no evidence
@@ieatmice751 While there is no direct evidence of feathers on large tyrannosaurs such as t.rex, there is a lot of indirect evidence, for example the ancestors of the larger tyrannosaurs were the smaller, more primitive tyrannosaurs guanlong and dilong. Which both had a coat of feathers. Now you might say that larger tyrannosaurs would have lost there feathers, however there is the large tyrannosaur yutyrannus which was 30 feet longe and could have weighed over 1.5 tons and was covered from it’s neck to the tip of its tail in feathers, as well as its legs down to its ankles. So there is no reason not to assume if a large tyrannosaur like yutyrannus was almost completely covered in feathers then t.rex would have also have had some covering of feathers. From this evidence it is widely accepted in the scientific community that large tyrannosaurs such as t.rex were covered in feathers. To what extent it is debatable, however they almost definitely had them.
@@creakingskull7008 I led the comment with "Although speculation". It was just a cool idea I had, nothing serious
I never thought of Abelisaurus as a reverse tyrannosaurus, to me it looked like a reverse carnotaurus cause of well, their similarities
Great video as always. I think Aucasaurus bears mentioning as well due to the type specimen's completion, living alongside Mapusaurus, and the speculation that damage to the skull was what actually killed the animal, very interesting.
As an Indian and Abelisaurids being the primary apex predators from India, I actually love and read a lot about them lmao, specially thanks to Rajasaurus
How did you not notice Ranbeer Kapoor
Really ! Abelisaurus are from India ?
@@-.Oz.- Mostly because we were too focused when we heard that Pepsi was better than coke.
Dinosaur identity politics
for those who don't know Rajasaurus is also the largest named Abelisaurid at 11-ish feet (33 ft)
You should make more of these kinds of videos about dinosaurs, amazing stuff!
Underrated channel af. Give this man more subs
Dude. Quality content. Subbed.
facts
Perhaps, but "Pepsi is better than Coke"?
@@Bexebeche Coke is better than Pepsi, but Pepsi Max is better than Coke Zero.
Man, I love learning about dinos. Love your vids.
The Disney movie Dinosaur introduced me to Carnotaurus and it since became my favorite dinosaur.
A very good movie. Always hated Kron, what a jerk he was
I like these dinos I've never even heard of, the deserve a place in the earth's history.
My new favorite channel and narrator!
Just found this channel. Love it!
Thanks for making my day a bit better :)
This was so cool. Thank you. Carnotaurus is my favorite dinosaur.
Hey great video! Keep up the good work 🙌
Thank you for talking about the Carno, best Dino
I Honestly have seen abelisaurs as budget Tyrannosaurs, but it was hard to me as a kid figuring out their ecological niche, nowadays these Are for me some of the most fascinating theropods to have ever hunted on Earth
03:05
"And the bizarre spinosaurus"
*Show picture of irritator*
This is one of the most engaging paleontological presentations on YT
You got a like for your stance on the cola wars. :)
i will never get tired of looking at dinosaurs with comically small arms
Good vid
Glad you also mentioned the headbutting, head smacking and head pushing and shoving that they likely did as their necks would likely have snapped if they charged into something at 50kph with their 1.5 tonne body
Edit: referring to Carnotaurus
2:17 The earliest known abelisaurid is _Eoabelisaurus,_ which predates _Ceratosaurus_ by 20 million years.
Maybe. Some phylogenies place Eoabelisaurus in the Ceratosauridae.
thats because theyre in different families. theyre both considered Ceratosaurs because theyre both under the clade Ceratosauria. Breakdown is Ceratosauria->Neoceratosauria-> which then breaks into both Ceratosauridae (which contains Ceratosaurus) and Abelisauroidea (which contains Eoabelisaurus). The video just states that theyre closely related (because they are), not that Abelisaurs as a whole descended directly from Ceratosaurus itself.
I've always loved the carnotaurus, it will always be my fav. I mean just look at it, size head to arms etc. Wonderfully unusual
Abelisaurs are my favorite, with Rugops being my all-time favorite dinosaur
Totally underrated
Good ass info. Always a pleasure to learn about dinos I'd never heard of before.
I dunno why but those tiny little arms are just so cute on something with so many teeth and claws.
I think The Budget Museum makes a good Reverse Flash for the Museum of Natural History!
Great presentation as always, thank you!
Majungasaurus accompanied by top tier area 51 music from the menus. Love it
hey so its been a year these dinosaurs featured in prominant roles in Prehistoric Planet so that's good they're getting the attention they deserve.
Unfortunately it just has 3 species
I hope more unknown species Will appear, Like the Pycnonemosaurus, Kurupi, Abelisaurus(Isn't it ironic that the dinosaur that gave the family its name is rarely mentioned in any documentaries? Nobody remembers him), Thanos, Rugops, Vitakridrinda and Skorpiovenator
I love the dry humor in this
Sounds like Spore music, very fitting.
Man you’re videos are so easy to digest and witty. Keep it up bro 👍🏼
I cant believe I have to say this but, your*
Tossing up a Pepsi toast and a comment to the algorithm because this channel is tragically underrated
Very interesting and informative.
Love your channel
Really cool video! Thanks.
I’ve always had a soft spot for the Carnotaurus. It’s like a kid made it out of play dough. Bulldog face, devil horns, with those floppy armless hands sticking out the sides. 😊
Okay but Dinosaur King taught me Carnotaurus are awesome
Dinosaur king is whatchu wanna be 😈
Love this video!!! I had no clue there was a whole line of Dino’s like Carnos!
Also question for ya. Where do you find the images you use in your videos? I’m looking for similar artwork to use as references for some prehistoric creature anatomy studies ive been wanting to do but I’m having trouble getting quality and relatively factual images 😂
Prolly look up the creature and add "paleoart". I think that could work
@@elpito9326 good idea, thanks! 🙏
Goof shid man, I love your videos.
Fascinating
thanks love this stuff
I love these videos
It's probably surprising that after allosaurids and megalosaurids, the dominant theropods in Europe were spinosaurids and dwarf abelisaurids. Carnosaurs can be considered native to Europe, while abelisaurids arrived as new species and took advantage of oceanic dispersal similarly like the lampeosaurine hadrosaurs that swim from European archipelago to North Africa. Three species of early tyrannosauroids have been found in Europe (Proceratosaurus, Juratyrant and Eotyrannus), while these remained mainly in Asia and North America. The reason why tyrannosaurs didn't thrive in Europe longer than the Jurassic period is not known, but it can be suspected that the reason was competition for food and market niches and the change of the environment from dry savannas to tropical islands. It could also have something to do with the fact that there was a seaway (Turgai Strait) on the Ural Mountains, from Middle Jurassic to Oligocene.
You forgot the megaraptorans also ruled in Gondwana even up to the end of the Mesozoic in some places such as New Zealand.
Love this
DC comics AND learning about dinosaurs?
God must have blessed me.
Love the video
Albilosaurs: remember that time someone stole your kill that was me Rexy, I was the one that stole your kill.
Remember that time Spino became the mascot of Jurassic Park 3 instead of you that was me Rexy, I ruined your movie.
Dinosaur lores are so interesting!
“It was me, Rexy! I was the one who took your triceratops kill at the speed of light so it looked like you quickly devoured it and didn’t leave your mate any!”
-Carnotaurus
Who said they are budget T-Rexes? I love them! And they look completely unique and mostly different 😭 Only the arms are somewhat similar in proportion. Nothing else is too similar, I think compared to other Theropods Abelisaurids always struck out for me!
I think you should have led with the pepsi vs coke example.
Love your videos dude.
Feeding the algorithm... And won't hold your Pepsi delusion against you 😋
Exactly this.
I liked carnotaurus as a kid (and now), blender arms :)
Great vids.
How have I never heard of these!?
I love this guy he’s pretty good
Damn, with his arms trapped in that pose this lad is in a constant state of Naruto running.
It also makes sense to have an armored skull when you run fast and have no arms to use. It also eats with its big head, so an optimization here seems like a good "choice".
How are you not already at 1M subs?
Imagine someone finding your fossil using the term: "somewhat wimpy arms/sausage with legs" to describe you.
Carnotauros has always been my favorite
Was the Abelisaurs dinosaur depicted in Jurassic park 3 that showed up while they were searching for the phone in the spinosaurus dung?
Abelisaurs are my favorite group of therapods
The first abelisaur I've ever discovered was Carnotaurus i didn't realize that it belongs to the Abelisauridae and i unironically ignored those tint arms though
they seem powerful enough already, but imagine the terror of one of these or a T rex with long, wider set arms that could grab stuff. out there throwing boulders and throttling brachiosaurs
Could the horns of abelisaurids also act as shades/sunglasses due to some abelisaurids not having the horns right above the eyes but above and slightly to the front (kinda off-set)
This was a very interesting video and helped me find new respect for the carnotaurus, but Coke is way better than Pepsi, the only thing it's going for it is how it has less foam
why would rugops having a weak bite force imply scavenging? That makes little sense. Relatedly I feel like an underrated predation mode in theropods was the approach used by african wild dogs and dholes- especially the latter- taking down much bigger prey by tearing at their flanks in packs and then eating them alive. Could imagine a swarm of Rugops taking down a larger theropod this way. While Rugops probably would not have the cooperation that dholes and wild dogs use, there are still pack hunters like piranhas that hunt gregariously without complex social behavior
Bro I died with the mikes shoe 😂😂😂👌
Only part that shocked me was hearing you prefer pepsi over coca cola
