Now let's be accurate, this is a show about what we learned from the people who spend their life staring at corpses. I don't think I've ever seen them do an episode on things that are still in the process of dying, presumably because the corpse watchers don't like all the screaming.
Idea: Learn to use an egg "I was already doing that" Use a stronger egg. Put water in it. Have the baby, on land, in the egg, water is in the egg, baby in the egg, in the water, in the egg. Works for me. _bye bye ocean_
How come I see your comments on different channels and different videos? Is it because I probably commented under one of your comments and now RUclips thinks we're friends?
@@melvinshine9841 their skin is very delicate, as they need it to absorb water through their skin. Unlike these ancient ones, today's amphibians not only need water to breed, but also to stay alive as adults. They don't have scales or tough skin to keep water in. So they are restricted to water. Because of this permeable skin, salt can easily damage because of how easily it is absorbed through water. And without proper salt filtering kidneys or organs, the salt becomes toxic. That's not to say salt water amphibians might not appear again. If the right selective pressures are made available, then such amphibians might just evolve independently again given enough time.
You are correct sir! The higher salinity of ocean water will pull water out of modern amphibians (and most freshwater fish) too quickly for them to replenish it. Mainly due to how poorly their skin tends to hold in water to begin with.
@Madalin Grama True but there were a pretty wide variety of species, including land dwellers. It wouldn't be out of the ordinary if they had vocalizations.
@@jensphiliphohmann1876 I heard about that. There's more: some are starting to actually socialize, due to evolutionary pressure caused by us, and they are making nests together, which seems to be an odd behavior
"Fans of this channel will know that the permian ended 252 million years ago" amm... yeah sure... i know that. Just a regular fan here that knows stuff
The Permian ended REALLY DRAMATICALLY 252 million years ago...along with almost everything else. Look up "The Great Dying"; it's...interesting. Actually look up the Permian in general--the "mammal-like reptiles" are awesome, related to us, and an entire sub-group that aren't around anymore.
My sister moved out to the country where she thought it would be quiet. In the spring the frogs mate and it is just a cacophony for about a month. His line at the end about the frogs made me think of this.
I really enjoy the content on this channel. I'm a Geologist so it's all very interesting to me. Can I make one small suggestion though, I appreciate having more context and in particular where subjects are located in the world at any given time in history. Could you perhaps add more locality maps (with the continental reconstructions at given time periods as base maps) for each of your fossil mentions or rock formation descriptions? It would help people visualize where things existed on Earth in the past. Thanks and keep up the great work!
This channel is so wholesome, with an amazing amount of information condensed into ten minute videos, great level of information with a good amount of science added in, its relaxing music, silly jokes and likable presenters (all of you!). Keep it up, I love it!
It's very hard to get fossils for small arthropods, they don't preserve well unless you get rare stuff like amber or things like the Messle shale. As such we don't really know, which is a shame.
We have some. Some of the earliest "spiders" come from the carboniferous period, mygalomorph spiders, which include modern day tarantulas, come from this period and we know of some true spiders from the end of the Jurassic period and the Cretaceous period. It's likely they evolved from sea-whip scorpions that lived along side other arachnid ancestors like Brontoscorpio.
@The Adronator - I saw a show ("Nature"?) that discussed modern spiders. I remember them remarking on spiders in meadows where there are maybe 1,000 or so per square meter.
I think that I recognize one of the pictures of Metoposaurus as a speciment form Krasiejow in Poland, the last one. I used to volunteer in excavations at that site, and I recognize the skeleton.
This channel is one of the best ever! It is pretty interesting to consider the possibility that the Gymnophiona (Caecilians) may have had a separate evolutionary origin than the Caudata (Salamanders) and Anura (Frogs). You guys should do videos on some of the more obscure yet very important animal phyla out there and their evolutionary origins: Bryozoa, Annelida, Brachiopda, Nemertea, Hemichordata, Nematoda, Priapulida, Rotifera, Platyhelminthes, etc...
I love amphibians, so this was a great choice for an episode! Can you do a follow up on how frogs, toads, salamanders, newts, and caecilians all diverged from each other?
I think that would have to wait until there's agreement on where the three surviving amphibian lineages originated, and whether L:issamphibia is even a clade.
I really have to say that after following you guys for a while now, this is the best RUclips channel you guys from sci show and Hank Green's crew have created to date. I'm so glad you guys teemed up with pbs to create this project, because it's been a real joy to watch progress.
I absolutely love when he does the episode about the different animals. His presentation is so refreshing. So wonderful. And when he pulled out the phone & told it to remind him to do an episode for us on a specific topic. I'd like to know more about flowers & what the oldest fossil known is. I love flowers, bees, butterflies. 😊🐝🦋🌻
Learning about all of this just makes me appreciate how incredibly rare and beautiful the story of life is. How amazing it is that one planet in the vastness of the universe created such diverse, sometimes otherworldly, and yet all essential animals and life.
Found this in my recommendations and within the first minute I hear the term "armor-plated KILLERS", uuuusually a sign to switch to a more credible documentary. But this time I'm glad I stayed.
I love you guys so much but I had to put this out in the world lol, you mentioned red-backed salamanders in 1:42 but then proceeded to show an eastern red-spotted newt. Now that I have indulged in my pedantry, my soul is now released from its coil
Thanks for this episode! Amphibians often get shuffled out of the way when talking about earth's evolutionary history; it's difficult to find information about their amazing adaptations and evolution. Keep up the good work!
You know, there's something humble about the last member of the temnospondyls living in a secluded part of the world, just trying to enjoy life. Only to meet its inevitable doom
This channel makes my inner child so excited every time I receive a notification that there is a new video. Love it, with the videos were a bit longer tho lol
I wish so incredibly badly that I could go back in time in some sort of space/time-bubble where I couldn't affect anything and vice-versa so I could see all the critters that used to exist. Imagine all the ones we don't even know of that filled unique niche parts of the ecosystems.
I love Dimetrodons there was a picture of one in my dinosaur book and it looked really happy. and so does 5:21 :D if I lived in the Permian I would have a pet one
I love ur videos! I particularly like how you show the names on screen so you can google these long gone fellows and be even more amazed by their discovery stories and weird nephews they had...
Very interesting and enjoyable. I love it when modern researchers admit that they don't know, or aren't sure, or 'there is a gap' It reassures me that the information is genuine. Respect and greetings from Auckland New Zealand 🇳🇿! NZ used to be part of Gondwana land, we still have many rocks and vestigial flora and fauna from that time. I'd love to see a programme about what we have here! The Tuataras, that pre-dated the dinosaurs and survived the Cambrian great dying for example.
So it’s important to know that amphibians were one of the first animals to conquer land and now we are hunting them to near extinction for development.
Thanks for another great video! I look forward to every Eons episode and I especially love the ones that introduce me to things I'd never known, like this one has.
Thanks, Blake, for yet another interesting and entertaining episode. The artwork that Ceri Thomas provides is beautiful and helps us all get a better idea of what these animals all looked like.
Yes. All the crazy extinct elephants alone would make a great video. Add to that how, when, and why they diverged and where the separation from what would become hyraxes would be amazing!
A new video of EONS???? YES! HELL YEEEEES!! I'm so happy! Guys, who makes the music you use during your episodes? And also, you are awesome!, thank you for making my day a lot better!
Wow, y'all really are the greatest. I noticed this in my feed while taking a break from researching the ecological pressures on early amphibian diversification and smiled wider than I have all week! As always, beautifully informative and accessible. Please keep it up!
I really loved that you pulled back and showed the scale of one of the creatures in relation to the narrator--I'd love to see you do that more often!!!!
All the hosts on this channel are just so kind and likeable
Indeed, but they should slow down a bit, i'm getting palpitation by just trying to follow their talking speed.

They're also really nice in real life as well! Got the pleasure to meet many of the PBS team in Anaheim last summer.

*Crazy to imagine there was such thing as salt water amphibians.*
I think modern amphibians can't handle salt water because it has an adverse effect on their skin. I can't remember how it works.
@@melvinshine9841 maybe because it will dry out due to osmosis?

Could you do a video on Molluscs and their evolution? I think that would really interesting.
Walking with dinosaurs nostalgia anyone?
I think you'll find that that video is about cephalopods, and mollusks comprise much more than just cephalopods.
There is an idea that some cephalopods might become land dwellers and some of them maybe our successors as a civilization building species.
