    Lots of you in the comments are wanting some Helicoprion content (rightly so!), so I wanna point you in the direction of this video: ruclips.net/video/gcqvc4XQE9Y/видео.htmlsi=NxulTwCm1F-TazeV
    I collab with Lindsay Nikole around 20 minutes in and talk about Helicoprion for a few minutes - so please do check it out and leave your thoughts in the comments on Lindsay’s video 😁

    Historian here! The calendar thing is so wild, reality is always stranger- and more entertaining in my opinion- than fiction. 😂 What’s even more so wild is that isn’t the first time the calendar has changed….isn’t that so wild to just think about the fact that somebody literally *changed the calendar*?
    Also: I just graduated from university and just wanted to give SharkBytes/Kris a shoutout because without this channel, I would not have passed my last science class! 😂 I literally wrote a paper on shark conservation, and used this channel and Kristian’s papers as references and got a 96% on it. (The highest science grade of my life lol) So thank you Kris for your always entertaining and informative videos and for your work in shark science- it helped someone like me with a learning disability pass my hardest class. 😁

    One of the best things about your channel is your enthusiasm. As soon as the video starts you are enthusiastic from the get go. Im sure you don’t always feel super happy / charged before each episode but I think it keeps people tuning in aswell as the shark content. Great video. More prehistoric sharks for sure! 🦈

    • @BinroWasRight
      @BinroWasRight 3 месяца назад +1

      Agreed! Enthusiasm and energy is often what separates a good RUclips channel from an excellent one. SHARK BYTES, PBS Eons and Clint's Reptiles are great examples of doing it well.

It makes me kind of sad to think that we won't be able to appreciate so many of these species because they simply didn't leave enough evidence behind for us to find out about them. I wonder what other discoveries are still out there?

    *LOVED* this one. An ancient mystery finally solved! Ptychodus is one of my favorite genera of ancient sharks. Especially as they used to be swimming about where I live these days, which was part of the Western Interior Seaway. I collect shark-related fossils from both extant and especially extinct species, and have some T. mortoni teeth from Kansas in my collection.

      North coast definitely the better coast for sure. Although they’re so hit and miss down here (for reference I’ve been down here 10 years, and missed them every time - just my luck). Without doubt the best place to see them guaranteed in the U.K. is Mull in Scotland.
