    just some constructive feedback: please, for the love of god, don´t make the background sound / imagined extinct whale sounds louder than the narration - or better yet: don´t mix narration with the sounds you want us to hear, so we can concentrate on one important thing at a time.
    nice video, I love learning about extinct whales and generally nature. keep up the good work!

Been in love with this creature ever since watching Walking with Beasts as a kid. Moeritherium sure looks different, though. I take it there was some groundbreaking discovery that drastically changed our understanding of it since Walking with Beasts?

    Great video! only nitpick is putting a mid video sponsorship in a video thats supposed to be educational, but at least you made it a chapter that can be easily skipped which is very considerate :3

    • @NaturesCompendium
      @NaturesCompendium  Месяц назад +1

      Glad you enjoyed it! Now for a bit of transparency: The ad placement was at the discretion of the sponsorship, so I tried my best to at least integrate in a way where watching it was still somewhat entertaining and didn't interupt the flow too much of the video, and of course adding it as a chapter for the option to skip. I don't do mid roll ads in my video and that does impact how much I can make from ad revenue, so sponsorships are very crucial in helping to fund bigger projects. This particular sponsorship will help me fund my upcoming Carnotaurus video, along with the generous donations from my Patreon supporters who have helped keep my channel afloat since 2021 thanks to providing the funds I need to keep my software subscriptions. One day, I'd like to be at a point where I can do this full time and I have enough funding from Patreon plus ad revenue to do so, but I'm far from that point as of now...
      Non-aquatic animal videos, especially dinosaurs, are the most expensive projects to produce in general. Hence why the majority of my animated content cover aquatic creatures since I keep the costs for those projects a little lower. Hope that clears things up a bit.

    Since this creature was not a marine reptile (as the first paleontologist who discovered it thought so), I would rename it Basilocetus.

    I bet the ancestors of whales returned back to the ocean to escape the giant prehistoric snakes that terrorized what is now Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia.
