Actually there are animals which were around back then which are still around today. At the Ashfall fossil bed, they found the fossilized bones of sandhill cranes... seven in all. They are identical to today's sandhill cranes in every way.

What is never adequately explained, if it is even mentioned, is how the "hunter" subset of the small populations of people, the Clovis People, living at the end of the last glacial epoch, were able to hunt at least 27 GENERA of animals to extinction in North America, only to disappear along with them. The cause of the Younger Dryas period from ~12,850 to ~11,500 years ago, during which the megafauna, especially of the Americas, disappeared, is most satisfactorily described by Antonio Zamora in his paper on the origin of the Carolina Bays in Geomorphology (Jan 2017).

This was an excellent documentary. Thank you for the opportunity to watch it. I just wish you could change the title to reflect what it’s actually about. I really enjoyed it, though. 👍
Mind blowingly wonderful. Nice to see construction companies working together with scientists to preserve these remains and not letting them disappear into ablivion. 👍
I think it's because it's all buried. We have places in Colorado like Dinosaur Ridge that are from those same ocean floor layers, but they were pushed up as the mountains formed. This exposed areas that are usually much deeper so there is easy access to fossils, but you can probably find the same stuff if not more just by digging a bit deeper in Nebraska!
Terrific documentary, both in content and video quality. Super clear high-resolution video! However, there isn't a single dinosaur mentioned in the program. The doc is about prehistoric mammals that came onto the scene roughly 50 million years after the dinosaurs went extinct (65 million years ago). So then why is it titled "Uncovering The Dinosaurs Of The Great Plains"?

When i lived in Fairbanks Alaska 71 to 99 we use to go out and look for old homesteads and we found a small town back in the woods . We found a mastodon's tusk it was a half of a full tusk we could not find the rest but we took it to the university and gave it to them they put it on display . we use to dig around in the old dump sites and they would not be to far from the house. I found al kinds of old stuff dating back to the gold rush days .
No wonder we are getting all this voter suppression. If all those mammoths are allowed to vote, they could take over the government. And I think we already have more than enough old fossils in government already, don't you?
I live in Herrin Illinois, a few years ago around 2016 -2018. They did a major reconstruction of the road/ State Route Highway. The Construction was by the railroad on the east side of Herrin, IL. On the Herrin Johnson City Road. The goal was to change the railroad crossings location & straighten out the "S" curves that immediately followed it. According to someone I know that lives in the immediate area. They were watching the road construction crew dig. The road construction crew came across several fossils and pottery. This person said it "appeared to be Indian Pottery, like I settlement, there was a lot of it!" According to this person, THE CONSTRUCTION CREW DID NOT REPORT IT TO THE ATHORITIES! ( ARCHEOLOGICAL SOCIETY, ECT.) This person said " The construction crew was afraid that they would not be able to continue with their Construction." They continued to build the road & destroyed the site! It's a shame what this person had to say. This was a part of History that got kicked aside/covered , all in the name of $$$!

A great cocumentary, but not one dinosaur, no space aliens or handy household DIY tips. Also, there was not one airplane, great or otherwise. And as far as I know, dinosaurs never traveled on planes anyway. Pretty sure they took the bus, but I digress,
Um why do you say dinosaurs in the title but then first thing I hear is 35 million to 4 million years ago, and mammals? Dinos died off 65 million years ago.
@@geckoraptor9397 Only the latest research has shown the extinction event occurred around 66 million years ago. Up until a few months ago, everything stated 65. Also, not all dinosaurs went extinct, either. We still have birds today. Birds 66 million years ago were even more so regarded as dinosaurs and even closer related to them than the birds alive today
I am very glad to see that there is a program bringing Native Americans into the field of paleantology. I hope they draw on younger people of middle and high school age, too. It would be a brilliant way to expand their educational opportunities and perhaps help protect threatened ancestral lands.
How long does it take to turn a bone into a fossil? Here In Southern Illinois we have huge old mining sites that have been turned into state parks. The coal was fairly close to the surface so a lot of this ground looks like they just run the length of the deposit and laid the tailings to the side then move over and start another row. It looks like someone has gone over the entire area with a huge disc, like a field for planting as the rows are realitively straight and consistent in size. It's wooded and fairly thick but there are literally tons of rock of various sizes that has been brought to the top and now sit on the surface. There are tons of fossilized muscle shells in the rock. They have the appearance of modern shells. I've found nothing that looks to be prehistoric so I have always wondered how far back they dated. I feel like they are not that old.
Shelled sea creatures have been around for a very long time, pre dating dinosaurs. Evolution only really progresses with species that need to change to survive. With shellfish type creatures it would be slower just due to the fact that they have a body that works for them. Not broke, don't fix it. So to answer your original question, the bones are trapped underground in a ground where oxygen cannot get to it, usually silt or mud. More layers will cover over and start to pressure on them. Bones will be pressed and turned into rocks, water and minerals seep in and it turns to fossil. It can take 100 thousands of years. Your shellfish could be half a million years old or anything up to 300 million years old.
Fossilized forest remains can be found by splitting layers of shales that were near the shale/coal horizons. Animal fossils are rare. The Illinois Coals were laid down during the ice age of the Carboniferous period ~300MM years ago. Try looking up "Illinois Basin Coals" and combinations of "Equatorial Tropical Mire Forests of Pennsylvanian Laurentia" for papers. Coals were laid down during periods of high sea levels and glaciation, and shales and carbonates were laid down during interglacial periods of even higher sea levels.
Your thumbnail is quite confusing. It says "dinosaurs", but shows one of the long-jawed proboscidians. And based on the start of the video, I'm guessing we'll be hearing about mammals, not dinos? 🤔 When was this TV show first broadcast? I'm guessing 90's/00's?
Surprised what is not mentioned at all, is Carrie Barbour: Nebraska’s First Female Paleontologist before all these guys. Why no mention? She was a trend setter!
The super volcano they’re talking about is the same volcano that sits in Yellowstone today. The geological record shows three or four previous eruptions from the same hotspot that the N American continental plate has drifted over. So, these animals might have died in the last eruption from Yellowstone or from the previous caldera that the hotspot had created.
You have absolutely no way to know whether those mammoths dressed up as dinosaurs for halloween. I am pretty sure that the recorsds that could have established that got flushed down the White House toilet, so I guess we'll never know.

At the mounds, yes. In your own farm field, no. p.s. If it is over an inch long it isn't an arrowhead, it was a point from a throwing spear hurled with an atlatl.
If all these fossils are buried in ashfall , does this mean yellowstones eruption from 620 thousand years is responsible for the extinction of these dinosaurs, does that disrupt the timeline?

Now that is a strange Theory.....
But, ok!
Did you miss the part where they mentioned the volcanic eruption?
But why would they all lay down together to die
Giants nonetheless!
This documentary was produced by Nebraska Public Media, and this TH-cam upload is unauthorized. Essentially, "Real Wild" stole it and uploaded it here.
30 species of the horse tribe. Wicked smart.
A lot of people in America might have a hard time coming to grips with the idea of millions of years, but most of the rest of the world has no problem at all, because we're not religious nutters!
Millions of years ago they had no politicians to blame their SUV's for climate change !
Wonderful, wonderful documentary. But please change the title. These are not dinosaurs!
Is it known where the volcanic ash is from what volcano?
, that is laid down in the bad lands .
Yes. It is from a eruption from the Yellowstone mantle plume.
Man those were some patient animals waiting to be buried. (3.43- 3.54)
3:43 - 3:54
Use a colon : not a period . to make timestamps.
1st time seeing this documentary ,,its really good but not a dino documentary
I wish I could go do that
Bruh, those two fighting-to-death male mammoths, reminds me of Naruto and Sasuke. Or maybe Hannibal and Will.
Need to see actual footage
I live near Etowah Indian Mounds, they'll put you UNDER the jail, if they find you looking for arrowheads!!
At the mounds, yes. In your own farm field, no.
p.s. If it is over an inch long it isn't an arrowhead, it was a point from a throwing spear hurled with an atlatl.
If all these fossils are buried in ashfall , does this mean yellowstones eruption from 620 thousand years is responsible for the extinction of these dinosaurs, does that disrupt the timeline?
👍
Great documentary; very misleading title
Someone needs to take a long, good hard look at the Headline title and change it. This is a good documentary ruined by that misleading headline. After all, ANCIENT MAMMALS ARE NOT DINOSAURS.
This is the worst kind of deception, even if the video was worth watching in its own right. It wasn't even a simple mistake, but deliberate deception on the part of the channel owner. If you need to perform such subterfuge to get people to watch the content you put up, then perhaps you need to seriously think about that content!
Mammals ate not dinosaurs
I think they meant the _"I-gotta-sore-ass"_ from sitting here waiting for the dinosaurs that never showed up.
@@paradisepipeco Nice one!
@@lewisjacobs1694 I appreciate the good word, my friend. I was actually a bit concerned that one might have been just a little _TOO_ dumb, even for me. Cheers.
@@paradisepipeco My notifications show a reply relating to homosexuality in the animal kingdom...I cant read the whole message, cant find it in the thread and not sure why its there but you are right. One particular book I would recommend is "Evolutions Rainbow" by Joan Roughgarden where she explores gender and sexuality throughout the animal kingdom. The fact we are animals and the fact homosexuality exists across the animal kingdom makes me wonder why the hell humans continue to to persecute
Good documentary about prehistoric mammals, titled by someone who doesn't know that mammals are not dinosaurs, presented by someone who never watched it and doesn't know what it's about. Also, that's not what "behold" means.
DON'T use abused animals from circuses and give them credibility in a documentary. 2 THUMBS DOWN!!
Yea they cover up there finds of giants ,an huge creatures. That's how our earth and hill were partly made.a gaint died made the hills so on soo forth.
Conspiracy nutjob here

No, wait............on second thought, maybe not.
Never mind.
@@rockabilly3333 I really don't understand how you keep getting out of your cage. You do know that removing your trousers and running down the street screaming _"Lock Her Up"_ and barking like a dog is frightening all the other dogs in the neighborhood, and if you don't stop, you'll be sent back to the animal shelter.
'its so big its either a Rhino or Elephant '... Ya.. thats what she said! 😁😁
That's the kind of talk that deserves a big hand. No, wait........
That's what Melania said, but not about her husband.
