I remember watching these as a child. Not sure how well they're going to hold up, but they have a place in my heart for introducing me to prehistoric animals that WEREN'T dinosaurs
I always think of dinosaurs least when thinking of prehistoric animals
SAME! This was my early childhood!
I remember this in my childhood also.
same
its criminal how little prehistoric mammal documentaries there are
The thing that bugged me the most was lack of an American Lion episode. It was teased in Smilodon episode so I hoped there was episode dedicated to it as well, but it wasn't.
Also in the short-faced bear as well!
Not to mention Arctodus's legs were probably even stronger and less prone to cracking than their leg fossils
Well, it probably didn’t turn since it had a very long legs
25:08 To be fair, if I remember correctly, the bear vs sloth scenario was hypothetical. They didn't say for sure if the bear did this or not.
I’m pretty sure that it’s possible that a short face bear would hunt the giant sloth
@@tyrannotherium7873 I can see it hunting young/sick/injured sloths. But not healthy adults.
@@sonofmovienerdking7230 The only time I could see the bear hunt a healthy adult is if it was desperate or suicidal.
@@sonofmovienerdking7230 Well given that there were smaller sloths closer to the size of the bear, I think it could have also hunted adult sloths
@@sonofmovienerdking7230 It Could Have Hunted The Shasta Ground Sloth. They Both Lived In California Around 13,000 Years Ago And Were Not Too Much Different In Size.
I remember watching this series a lot as a kid. I enjoyed it, but one thing that always bummed me out, and I’m still disappointed that it still hasn’t gotten many appearances in documentaries, was that there was no episode on American lions. Definitely an underrated creature from the Pleistocene, it really deserves its own time in the spotlight. I’m aware that a new documentary called “Giants” does feature them, which is cool. Besides that, I have a far less known dino/prehistoric wildlife doc to recommend. I’d like to see a review on “Life after Dinosaurs”.
I would like to see the American lion as well since it is my favorite prehistoric cat
Currently waiting in anticipation for "When Crocs Ate Dinosaurs"
We shall make this day one
Agreed
This and "Monsters we met," are long overdue
"Let's not forget South Americas's land crocs" what if the problem was that I'd never heard of them before
Sebecosuchians
@@NLEcoppa1 I know a little more now.
If I recall correctly, Daeodon might have been another Cenozoic land predator that rivaled/exceeded Arctodus simus in mass. Simbakubwa from Africa has also been claimed to have possibly reached a greater mass, but those estimates seem to be very controversial and possibly overestimates.
I thought Simbakubwa was just slightly larger than a tiger.
@@jeffreygao3956
That is what I was alluding to. When I heard Simbakubwa first being announced, people reportedly yielded estimates that it was larger than a polar bear. But others more recently calculated that its size was closer to a tiger's, supposedly taking into account how that subfamily of hyaenodonts had proportionally smaller bodies compared to their massive head size.
Regarding the horse species, I know Wikipedia usually isn’t a good source, but it identified the horse as the Hagerman horse (Plesippus simplicidens), sometimes called the Hagerman zebra or American zebra, but take this with a grain of salt.
Yep the American zebra
When we needed him most, he returned.
Also don’t mind me casually suggesting Flying Monsters with David Attenborough
I was just thinking of that being done the other day when I found my DVD
I always loved Prehistoric Predators.
And as far as 2000s paleo documentaries go, this one has, for the most part, aged well.
Apart from from a few inaccuracies.
I can’t wait until you review the other four episodes.
(Those being terror bird, hyaenodon, Archaeotherium and Daeodon, and Megalodon)
I'm so glad you're so informative and being accurate when taking a look at these older prehistoric animal docs, especially the Prehistoric Predators Sabertooth, which was one of the first "dino docs" I watched and still one of my favorites. I'm actually about to write a story about the Mesozoic and Cenozoic eras' different fauna living together; obviously being very fictional because that wouldn't happen but I do my best at showcasing these prehistoric animals as accurate as possible for today's knowledge about them. This particular video helped me out a lot on the Cenozoic side of things when it came to how I should play out the predators' behavior and lifestyle within the story so I want to thank you for that. Can't wait to see you cover the rest of the series! 😊
If i was a smilodon, a t rex, or a spinosaurus i would roar at the top of my lungs constantly while hunting because its very stealthy
*(insert Earth-shaking roars)*
“…Dumbledore said sneakily.”
"Prehistoric Predators" (2007) from national Geographic and "Monsters Ressurected" (2009) from Discovery Channel, despite being released and separated by a period of 2 years, are often are often greatly mistaken and confused with each others.
Which is one of the famous fact that is often said and know about them.
Mainly due to the Cenozoic episodes of "Monsters Ressurected" I think.
Because the CGI, animation and the designs of the beast of the show look really similars to the ones of "Prehistoric Predators" that are used during all the run of the latter.
Prehistoric predators had better accuracy the monsters, Resurrected
@@tyrannotherium7873 Sure, when we look closely to the actual pictures, directly side by side.
But from afar and overall surface level, it's easy to mistake the Cenozoïc animals scenes from the two documentaries.
Finally! Your returned with this series! Maybe Mammoth: Titan of Ice Age from 2010 as next?1
as a California resident (northern thankfully) that LA and Water Supply joke was pretty damn funny good one
12:09 aren’t we forgetting some others like xenosmilus hodsonae, amphimachairdus giganteus, Panthera tigris soloensis, panthera fossillis, machairodus horribilis, and Adeilosmilus kabir (the Taxonomy for this animal was confusing as it was classified as a species of machairodus in 2005 based on finds in chad, then later reclassified it as a species of amphimachairodus and now its own distinct genus last year.)
That FNAF meme should be a legend, you really are the GOAT of prehistory memes.
Yes thank you so much... thank youuuu. This may be just what i needed to get a buss cuz im bussinngg
I would highly recommend a few you jumped over both old and new.
Walking With Cavemen actually does a lot more than our ancestors it also is one of the few if only that has Gigantopithecus!
Leaps in Evolution and Out of the Cradle on Curiosity Stream are quite well made as well. I also recommend Monsters We Met as well as Death of the Megabeasts. Ice Age Giants is also an excellent piece to look at but it's admittedly hard to find.
Thank you! I can't promise videos but I will check those out.
@@redraptorwrites6778I hope you at least mention Walking with Cavemen in a future video.
Gigantopithecus deserves to be featured in way more documentaries. Its one of my favorite prehistoric animals.
You should do Land Of Lost Monsters/Monsters We Met documentary. Wild New World is one I'd love to see you review as well.
A fine analysis I was waiting for and it lived up to expectations!
This documentary series is nostalgic
I have an old Dino doc recommendation. It’s called When Dinosaurs Ruled, narrated by Jeff Goldblum
15:25 There are also lots of palaeontologists who argue that the American Lion was social like modern lions despite them being rarely found at La Brea, more evidence that it isn't black and white.
Wow, great review Red Raptor Writes. Excited for part 2 and glad to hear this series got more right than wrong. It's one of my favorites for sure, so glad to hear this good news. Intrigued to see the Entelodont episode get reviewed and what the grade will be. Could you possibly do Prehistoric America at some point? It's fine if not, I just want to hear your thoughts on that series. It's not the best, but it is alright given the competition. Also who was the voice for the patreon segment? Anyway, stay safe, keep up your informative content and see you next time.
Thanks for introducing me to so many documentaries I never knew about!
YESSSS MY DUDE YOU ARE FINALLY COVERING MY FAVORITE PALEONTOLOGY DOCUMENTARY SERIES🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🥳
I Love These. I Still Watch The Low Quality Downloadable Videos On RUclips. It’s Funny How Old I Feel Considering These Came Out When I Was Barely A Teen. Now I’m Married With A Kid On The Way…
First and foremost, I liked the video, and I am happy this show did so well up until now. I remember watching it when I was little, and I loved it then. This show also introduced me to the cool and awesome Hyaenodonts, Entelodonts and Terror Birds.
But I have a question. Who spoke at the beginning of the video?
My sister, Bethany. She's featured in some of my Prehistoric Planet reactions and a Little Big Planet playthrough where we played through my homemade JP levels
You really should do monsters we met, it's a powerful yet tragic show
Jesus you explaining when you watched these in middle school gave me flashbacks. I did the exact same in middle school
7:43 The Persians used Camels in historic battles sometimes.
Thanks for covering these, It really puts to rest my confusion on what's really there for the short faced bears specifically, and also reminds me on what's going on with the smilodon pack hunting so I can do paleoart of them with more confidence.
You have to do the other episodes, genuinely my childhood favourites, every episode deserves to be rated
We're so close to 30th ranked videos,but yeah I remember watching this documentary as a kid ngl and liked it, and I'll say it's better than MR by a mile ngl
Overall amazing video, and I wish you have a great day
I watched this doc when I was younger, but for some reason I completley forgot about its existance. Glad to be reintroduced to it.
Can you look at all of the Animals from the Animated Movie The Croods🐈
This was one of the few times, if not the only time, where I feel there was an actual point to them building a moveable model of the smilodon's mouth, because it was used to demonstrate what a smilodon couldn't do instead of just being used to break things.
An entire Pleistocene themed rank video would be awesome!
Loved this show as a kid, so it should be interesting to see what it got right and what it got wrong. This is the show that really introduced me to the Pleistocene period and the rest of the "Ice Age." I didn't know about animals like short-faced bears, bear-dogs, Columbian mammoths etc and it was really this show and a few others which ignited my obsession and fascination with the prehistoric world.
See that's the documentary we're waiting for a Review of this cenozoic one
Jesus the intro got me for a second
Ik this might confuse some people, but terror birds are technically dinosaurs in a way.
Aves (birds) are dinosaurs in terms of cladistics. Australaves, a clade of birds, includes Falconiformes (falcons), Psittaciformes (parrots), Passeriformes (songbirds) and Cariamiformes (seriemas and the extinct Phorusrachids).
Pin me if I was on point, if you can
i never watched a single episode of predators but the show seems to look good look good i'll have to see second part to this
also subbed :[])
I love and adore Prehistoric predators, I was obsessed with it in middle school the facts combined with animation is fantastic
This was my childhood i loved these and even the animation still holds up, tbh that arctodus vs ground sloth fight was kinda dumb is probably my favorite scene
Yes! Finally!
My favorite prehistoric documentary alongside Prehistoric Park
This is One Of My First Dino Documentary’s When I Was 3/4/5
Really I remember watching this documentary when I was like 10 or 11 I was like in fourth grade when it came out
In fairness, Arctodus simus probably did scavenge from time to time. I imagine it probably could scare off wolves, Smilodon, or lions from their kills, due to its size.
Are you planning to cover Ice Age Giants?
Also, I already know this video will be a masterpiece.
See the difference between the metal contraptions in Monsters Resurrected, is that don’t mean much, because well they’re not made of metal. It’s more just being cool. In predators, the metal contraptions actually work. The smilodon one is to used to see if smilodon’s teeth could at least bite an animals stomach.
Seems like smilodon might have hunted in groups more akin to cheetah coalitions.
The Americas watching horses return: You could not live with your own failure. Where did that bring you? Back to me.
These arent Dino doc but I’d love to hear your thoughts on stuff like Alien Planet or The Future is Wild.
Nice review. Indeed, the dire wolf is not close related to wolves it’s more closely related to jackals, and the Indian wild dog I do like they put spots on the smilodon since I do think that it hunted in forest areas and the short face bear design looks exactly like a speckled bear and yes, the isotopes confirmed that the short face bear we used to be a hyper carnivorous bear maybe the Alaskan specimens were more carnivorous big as maybe there weren’t a lot of plants, but maybe places in California or Florida maybe they ate plants who knows but I do think that the short face bear was the scavenger and the reason why is because when you look at bears today, like the grizzly, they scavenge more than a hunt and also when you look at the environment, it was very competitive, so I do believe that the short face bear would scavenge carcasses from other predators, but I do think occasionally it would hunt an injured animals a injured horse, a Young Mammoth that’s been separated from the herd or etc. and I also think that yeah the doctor Paul Matthews who is in the documentary he’s right it was not a fast runner because of its narrow legs so I do think that it was probably more of a ambush predator if needed be. Another thing is that it’s debatable if Smilodon populater was heavier than the American lion it’s going back-and-forth really so we don’t know who is heavier than who. What Smilodon being a solitary Hunter that’s going back-and-forth really according to Dr. Larry Martin unfortunately he passed away and Professor Valkenburgh they think that it was a solitary Hunter, and I heard in a paper that it’s brain was more that of a jaguar. So it would make sense that Smilodon would not hunt in packs or prides. Today there are some cats that do survive horrible injuries. Obviously it takes time depending on the wound, of course and the injury. And yes sabertooth cats like Smilodon would’ve been throat slashers because it’s a quicker death and it would make logical sense obviously if it hit the belly of the animal would struggle and the things would break off, so Smilodon was indeed a throat slasher, but overall, I love the documentary as a whole and I can’t wait till your review season two because those seasons came out in 2009 while the place the same one came out in 2007
This kiddo everywhere
What?
@@Killerg238 what are you talking about?
Will there be a review of the bbc documentary series "Wild New World"?
Those memes were perfect!!
It would be awesome if National Geographic remade this series with modern cgi like prehistoric planet, new/updated information and with even more animals that once lived North America.
Hoho, this is what I needed, thanks
I have a goo recommendation that you might like, "really wild animals: dinosaur and creature features"
My argument on the short faced bear is it needs to be compared to the wolverine which will also eat plants and run long distances to run down prey. Though not exact there are other comparisons should be made not just the teeth for diet. Wolverines have longer legs to body length. Exhausting the prey happens better in snow but also in summer. The pack hunting Yellow throat Martin are known to exhaust prey will long chases as do the Dholes, Cape hunting dogs and Wolves. It would be interesting to know if the Bushdog sometimes use this long distance approach. Probably not but still interesting to find out.
I hope you eventually do animal armageddon
My favorite quotes of the documentary is in the sabertooth episode when Dr. Larry Martin says a Smilodon cannot bite a rabbit because the teeth would be in the way
honestly said, the la-brea tar pits deserve their own video
I’ve been waiting for this!!!!!!
Im hyped for the entelodont episode, that documentary made me love em
That was the episode that introduced to me to those animals. My kid brain was BLOWN!
Proud to be part of the country that named the biggest predator land crocodile of the cenozoic
I remember watching this when i was younger. it still looks terrible to me xD
Childhood brought back to you by Red Raptor
Man those memes get me every time 😂
I do wonder if David Attenborough's "Lost worlds, Vanished lives" could make a video, or that is not really fitting the style of the revived docs in this channel?
this series was my childhood, I had recorded the megalodon, terror bird, hyaenodon, entelodon, smilodon, dire wolf and short face bear episodes on VHS tapes (man I´m old)
I would like to point out that the suggested social system for S. fatalis in Prehistoric Predators can potentially go in the “outdated” section. While their argument against a lion-pride system should definitely be praised, the “wolf-pack” system isn’t likely either. The author for a paper evaluating sexual dimorphism in S. fatalis crania purposed one of 3 social systems: solitary, monogamy or a unisex groups like Asiatic lions. Given more recent evidence that leans on the species being social, unisex groups seem most likely. Wolves may not be as sexually dimorphic as felids, but the differences they do have allow male wolves to perform better in fights with other wolves and take a central role in bringing down larger prey. We can see something similar in lions too, where males usually play an important role in bringing down larger prey such as buffalo or young hippo. If their social system was mixed like wolves, we should see something similar, as perhaps parts associated with wrestling prey such as the shoulders, should be more developed. But no such differences are reported. Almost all reported differences are in the skulls, which basically suggests that the two sexes were killing different prey animals, hence why I think unisex groups are most likely
can you do one about national geographic's Dino death trap? Love your videos
Hey I have a suggestion for your next review, A series I loved to watch all about major extinction level events. Animal Armageddon
Hey, I have a idea for a doc to rank. First of all, Can u do this documentary, “Dinosaurs in the Outback” I’m pretty sure u had it in your list of docs your going to rank on the first episode of WWD. It was around dinosaur Britain and stuff. Can you do it?
I know it doesn't hold up as a dinodoc very well but could u please review sea rex its my fav paleodoc
Fun Fact: Lions are specifically more selfish than Tigers, cuz When Tigers in the Wild are more likely to share If 2 of them come across a meal, Lions are much more cut throat and would occansionally snatch leftovers from cubs. (note this has nothing to do with Smilodon cuz Smilodon is NOT a tiger)
yay great to see this series is not dead yet
I have an idea for a documentary you could review. Back when I was younger I watched one called earth the making of a planet, it’s made by National Geographic and it’s found on youtube
Have you watched Ice age giants by professor Alice Roberts? If so, what are your thoughts?
I remember hearing about a smilodon populator skull that would have been large enough to have belong to a cat that would have been 1000 pounds.
I remember stumbling across this as a kid at the library and my dad only let me watch it because he’d rather watch a new documentary than sit through Walking With Dinosaurs a tenth time lol. Yeah, I was obsessed.
Love the videos, but could you give credit to paleo artists when you use their art in your videos? There’s a particular black and white image of some smilodon that I wanted to look up the artist for, but you didn’t credit him
a thing with T.Rex that´s Worth noteing tho,
T .Rex might be too big to be a full time Scavnager.
They should’ve given the American lion its own episode instead of just a cameo
21:42 had me dying lmao
You should review prehistoric monsters revealed
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees finally some new red raptor writes content Frick ya!
Can't believe i've just seen a scene from a barbie movie with a barking cat in a video like this, it is brilliant
I haven’t seen anybody make a video about this show before.
@18:55 You said "fossils" of dire wolves. They are actually bones: not fossils. Hence, the mitochondrial DNA. The Labrea Tar Pits are famous for nearly perfectly preservation of actual bone.
I Heard those bears can stand 15 feet tall when standing
16:27, why was there a cut between for and prey?
i would compare smilodon packs to orca pods with the oldest and her descendants, males may have been solitary or only left the pack to breed to avoid inbreeding.
The episodes i wanted was for cave lion cave bear american lion and cave hyena
I Had short face bear DVD as a child which I watched a lot
Rated Prehistoric Assassins from (2010) have you heard this dinosaur documentary
