Welcome to Ecotasia! On this channel you can find wildlife footage and short documentaries on the natural world. I am an early career biologist who was inspired by the likes of the BBC Natural History unit, PBS, and Animal Planet as a child and then more recently by various nature TH-cam channels to share my love for animals and nature. My goal is to document and highlight the interesting ecology and behavior of organisms I encounter, as well as cover and elucidate conservation and biological topics. Please Subscribe so you can join me to marvel and to learn twice a month.
Why Dinosaurs Still Matter Today
I freaking love Dinosaurs. So I made this video essay about dinosaurs, and more specifically why some 66 million years after they had a really really bad day and all died, they are still relevant to a bunch of hominids burning fossil fuels.

I am sorry to bug you, but do you think you could survive the insect apocalypse? insects do so many functions in ecosystems that the loss of insects could be catastrophic, there would be next to nothing to eat as between insects pollinating plants and being eaten themselves, they are essentially critical to the functioning of most terrestrial ecosystems.

I Went to Every Different Climate on the Big Island of Hawaii! Climate Zones Explained
Nice video 😃 I love learning about nature’s adaptations bc it’s always amazing. I was watching the geese in the snowy grass today and they were there all day eating the grass. However they left by dark and I wonder where do they spend the night? We’re located in a city .
I stopped watching bcz the guy is guessing all the time. Prolly pseudo-guessing to prevent intimidating the audience? Whatever, who wants to hear "facts" followed by question marks.
Just enjoy the movie, plus the T-rex was accurate for the time also if your complaining about Jurassic Park than complain about Godzilla inaccuracies
Thanks for the very nice video. I live three hours from the Pando in St. George, UT, I take a couple dozen trips to various natural wonders in Utah and Nevada each year. This year I will be going to the Pando.
Make a vídeo about Why the spinosaurus in Jurassic park is actually a baryonyx
This was fun to watch, love the beer pong analogy!
Well it was kind of derived from the tossing things on the beach we did on isla del Cano, and then realizing it could be modified to be beer pong.
@ that’s awesome I forgot about that! That’s a great way to do it
Interesting video!
lol , stop blame habitat loss , fungus ,etc , this herpetologist cause the extinction , if only he knew to get some species to conserve it , now everyone dont get to see one ........ also those who always say , animals belong to the wild , " You " are one of the cause too ! imagine a toad going extinct in a freaking rainforest with no backup !
Loved the video. I believe black walnut kills trees around them.
I can hear these trees saying Gayyyyy To the guy talking
though this was a year ago. you are showing pure GAME FOOTAGE based on the movie. and they are really accurate for something. getting the movie models right. its a game thats trying to match the accuracy of jurassic park and jurassic world franchise. what do you expect?
I don’t understand how this happens? So one seed germinated right? Where did the seed come from? And why did other genetically distinct aspens not arise nearby aswell? Why is it only one clone colony? I doubt literally only one seed was in the whole area is the pando clone actually a single clone or are there other aspen clones that are in it that lost the competition and are just kinda sitting there as pando engulfs them? And why hasn’t pando sexual reproduced and made non clones?
While Prehistory is all about all evolution led to mankind, dinosaurs made a unique impact that they became the real-life breakout star of those extinct creatures to the point it’s impossible to imagine prehistory without referencing dinosaurs
I think we should knowledge the Paleozoic and Cenozoic species equally
yes i agree, dinosaurs just have the public imagination in a way that sadly radiodonts and sparassodonta don't
As someone who grew up on the farm and was tasked with cleaning out the chicken house every WEEK, no one can tell me birds don't smell!!!
oh, they definatly smell, i have cleaned a lot of bird crap, but it isn't mammal urine and musk
Do I need to buy the paid service to be able to view live and recorded video or can I view it for free just from the app?

Dinosaurs lampooned creationists😂
Gay Rock n Rolling Crylophosaurous
Wow you should be famous. I love dinosaurs
i do too
sauropods survived up until the k-t mass extinction a notable sauropod close to k-t boundary is Alamosaurus
the current hypothesis as i understand it is titanosaurs arrived from asia and colonized north america.
@Ecotasia Alamosaurus was part of the clade titanosauria part of the family Saltasauridae, which has been found in South America, North America, Aisa, Africa and Europe. Alamoasaurus sanjuanensis had an estemeted weight of 50-100 tonnes and is the biggest Saltasauridae found so far. Yes their were other massive sauropouds part of clade Titanosauria like Argentinosaurus and Paralititan who both have estimated to have weighted over 50 tonnes each as well
Chuck D. Nice.
Thank you!
Loved it. Both very interesting and entertaining. I do Hope that your channel grows as much as we hope! I also love your digs at rampant capitalism!
Thank you so much
Go play prehistorie kingdom just dont play jurassic world evelution 2 and its made from movies
She died of what?
So Animals like Lions great white sharks and bald Eagle can classify as flagship species because They are big And cool?(before the zoology subreddit banned me) or There are exceptions?
essentially what you said
You should make a vídeo about Why are smaller species more sucessful and diverse and yet least studied than larger ones
This is also Why most amphibians are usally small? Also i came here for a warning beware of the fungus that Will kill ALL of the amphibians around the world beware of the chytriodiomycosis
Looks like the same location as the First Episode of Walking with beasts
same bioregion, but apparently they filmed on Java
I wish the belo horizonte zoo Had These monkeys as a atraction
Hey ecotasia you should make a vídeo about Why does the anolis and varanus genus have so Many species?
Hey ecotasia These sharks are possibly extinct and There is nothing to do to bring them back and i don't know what they did but i know this If They are Really extinct it's because fishers wanted them extinct that's ALL It takes so you can Roar smash the place up,crud you can wail on me ALL you Want but What good It IS gonna do you? Cause you ain't in your country you're on in his and he sure a damn reason about you
Hey ecotasia i found on Wikipedia Animals that are only seen on drawings or do not have drawings at all you should make a vídeo about This topic
Attenborough and the kratt brothers should make Episodes about the colugo and Also are There Any of These guys in captivity? And How do They view humans?
You should make a vídeo about Why do we only Care for big species and we see smaller species as pests
You should make a vídeo about ice age 2002
You should Also make a vídeo explaining that Why the spinosaurus in Jurassic park was actually a baryonyx and not a Full Blown spinosaurus
I used to go here all the time to fish with my grandpa. Had no idea.
Giraffatitan altithorax?
Awesome!

abah mau ini
Huh, I thought a brontosaurus was different from apatosaurus
well maybe they are
So is it like a giant mycelium...?
mycelium are fungal, these are root systems, but yes somewhat analogous
🖤🖤🖤
Even if humans had nothing to do with the extinction of the megafauna it would still be desirable to restore the animal density and diversity that existed before. most north american ecosystems are nowhere near as productive as they should be, they are bereft of animal life.
working on a longer video on the topic
The first movie was made in the 90s and you’d have to understand their knowledge of dinosaurs weren’t like it is today and if they just straight up changed it, it would be weird and confusing for the audience. The franchise is amazing, it’s a completely different style and I personally like it.
What was your source for the Latin translation of periglenes as 'bright'? I can't find any etymological explanation of this.
I suspect it was the book that I cited for much of the discovery. The name though should translate to more like pilgrim, probabaly because of their anual gaterings at pools to breed
As a big island resident I appreciate this so much! Thanks for the insight.
