I've helped raise a few rhino calfs that were affected by poaching, and I would spend days with them at a time. We kept them in a large enclosure for monitoring. As lame as it sounds, I would tell them stories of the wild and of their ancestors (even though I knew they couldnt understand me anyway lol) Now they're both adults and they're actually getting released back into the wild in a few days, in fact, but unfortunately I won't be able to be there to say goodbye. Watching this made me think of the stories I told them and I'm just happy that they'll have another shot at the life they were supposed to have
i literally made a joke abt the long-necked rhinos in genshin and paraceratherium earlier today, then this gets recommended to me. glad you like it, i was also very happy when i saw the big ol guys ^-^
And even then, Paraceratherium and Palaeloxodon still are largest land animals to ever live with the exception of sauropods. And that is truly remarkable.
@@dom9300oh it is alright yeah I wasn't 100% certain but I know Shantungosaurus is the largest non Sauropod Dinosaur so I guess thats the third largest non sauropod land animal
I remember When playing Genshins natlan update, when learning that these big animals were called long necked rhinos, i immediately thought of paraceratherium. I wonder if it’s actually inspired by it, glad you mentioned it
@ idk If I could recommend it, since the Gacha gameplay isn’t for everyone. For me at least, I really love the game. Not just in gameplay, but also in story, lore and artistic design like characters and especially music and atmosphere
A great video. Definitely one of my favorite mammals. I also got introduced to this animal thanks to Walking with Prehistoric Beasts. The name change too was interesting.
In Genshin Impact, the long-necked rhinos are literally immortal, if you attack them they'll stomp on you and knock you back. *Spoiler for 5.1 archon quest* Which makes the sight of one of them (Toto) being toppled over during the war segment of the quest all the more haunting
Paracaratheruim IS the largest terrestrial mammal. 4.8 m height and 22 tons weight. It is a result of my calculations, using the skeletal reference and elephant body density (950 kg/m3). Dzungariotherium is estimated at 20.6 tons, being slightly smaller (Wikipedia info) Palaeoloxodon namadicus was downsized to 4.5 height and 18.5 tons (For 4.5m individual I got the same result)
@@GlennKurusu yes. And I don't have a guarantee that 950 is accurate for elephantia. But all terrestrial mammals have a body density 930-970 kg/m3. 950 for elephants I founded somewhere in forums. And it sounds quite normal, so I used it. And the difference in result between 930 and 970 density is minor. You can recalculate it easily with a different density
I was introduced to Paraceratherium through a ZooBooks magazine on rhinos and it showcased a whole family of extinct rhinos including it, but it was called Indricotherium at the time. And then came Walking with Beasts. PK's version of the animal has that same majestic vibe like Jurassic Park's Brachiosaurus.
I loved this animal ever since I saw that "Walking With Beasts" episode. It's hard to go wrong with a rhino with a giraffe-like body. I also really like the designs for the leveled up versions in "Jurassic World: The Game" and that "Genshin Impact" creature.
THIS WAS A W VIDEO TO SEE, heck yeah, I would maybe in the future love to see the many interpretations of albertosaurus in media, if you’re ever thinking on doing more tyrannosaurids🔥
A few interpretations of Paraceratherium that I’m aware of are: 1) Mark D Wolf’s Age of Mammals - In this stop motion documentary, it’s referred to as Balucitherium & is also depicted with a shaggy coat 2) Dinotopia: Journey to Chandara - Paraceratherium is one of the many Cenozoic Mammals that inhabit the Forbidden Mountains 3) Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope - While Paraceratherium doesn’t appear in the film, the Ronto seems to be partially based on it.
So one of the neat things that I've seen when it comes to Paraceratherium and the other indricotheres (Which is still the family name despite Indricotherium's status) are those large tusks they pointed out. In modern rhinos, they're very similar to the Indian Rhinoceros's set of tusks, which they use more than their horn as a defensive mechanism. So there's a good chance that if there was anything threatening a young or an adult, they'd bite them on top of trampling them with their large size!
Fun fact: it apeears that Star Wars AT AT were inspired by Paraceratherium. Also, don't quote me on this one, I think I remember some Para-like beasts in the prequel trilogy (I think it was "ronto" or something).
Is there any chance for Struthiomimus to get the spotlight? Species included: 1. Struthiomimus altus (Campanian to early Maastrichtian) 2. Struthiomimus sedens (Maastrichtian) Movies, documentaries and games as the main spotlight: 1. Dinosaur (stop motion version) 2. The Land Before Time franchise 3. Disney's Dinosaur 4. Dinotopia 5. When Dinosaurs Roamed America 6. Dinosauria (made by David James Armsby) 7. Saurian 8. Prehistoric Planet 9. Path of Titans If you have any suggestions for the upcoming dinosaur I've requested, please let me know and we'll keep in touch. Anyway, greetings from Phoenix, Arizona. 🇨🇦🏞🦕🦖🦤🦣
"Walking with Beasts" was my introduction to Paraceratherium as well (👍😉). I admit it; _I'm_ guilty of calling it 'Indricotherium' for the longest time (until now, that is).
There is a digimon called Baluchimon Baluchitherium usca junior synonym of Paracertherium. It appeared in Digimon Adventure 2020 as glowing light after being purified from Skull Baluchimon which is a reference to bone war shenanigans.
Hi Dino Guy, I recently watched your video about fossil Pokémon and thought you might enjoy a look at some Digimon that are inspired by extinct animals (including Paraceratherium). Marine Digimon include Anomalocarimon, Coelamon, Archelomon, Plesiomon and Tylomon. The archosaur inspired Digimon often blur with dragons. Pterosaur Digimon include Pteramon, Vorvomon, Lavorvomon, Lavogaritamon and Volcanicdramon. Dinosaur Digimon include Agumon, Greymon, Geo Greymon, Skull Greymon, Metal Greymon, Rize Greymon and by extension Mugendramon, Chaosdramon, War Greymon, Black War Greymon, Blitz Greymon, Emperor Greymon, Victory Greymon, Shine Greymon and Gaioumon. Furthermore, there are Tyranomon, Dark Tyranomon, Ex-Tyranomon, Master Tyranomon, Metal Tyranomon and Rust Tyranomon, Guilmon, Growmon and Megalo Growmon, Spinomon, Allomon, Dinomon, Dinorexmon, Ornismon, Diatrymon and Kiwimon (classified as "Ancient Bird Digimon"), Brachiomon, Ultimate Brachiomon, Parasaurmon, Stegomon, Ankylomon, Monochromon, Vermilimon and Triceramon. Other Digimon inspired by Triceratops are Gammamon, Betel Gammamon, Kaus Gammamon, Wezen Gammamon, Gulus Gammamon and by extension Canoweissmon and Siriusmon. For synapsids we have Dimetromon, Mam(moth)mon, Skull Mam(moth)mon, Saber Leomon, Dinotigermon, Baluchimon (based on Paraceratherium), Moosemon (based on Megaloceros) and Ancient Megatheriumon (actually based on Pelorovis). Perhaps there is something in there for you.
You're doing a fantastic job! I need some advice: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
genshin mentioned, gotta watch. actually thinking about it, would you be interested to look into the genshin saurian designs to see where they took insperation from
In a parallel Timeline there a line of movies called Pleistocene Park and the third installment had Paleoloxodon. n vs. Paraceratherium with the Paleoloxodon impaling the Para in the ribs with its tusk, the debate rages on to this day between paleo nerds.
Para or indro is definitely one of my favourite extinct mammals also. I find it crazy how fast they evolved and grew after the extinction of the dinosaurs.
4:16 Bruhathkayosaurus: So your calling the big fish the largest animal to ever live, well I'LL SHOW YA LARGE (Bruhathkayosaurus was larger then argentinosaurus based on the limited material we HAD of it... the material got destroyed but we know it existed still :3) (And you know that argent has always been up there with the blue whale)
Unfortunately, that fella is too fragmentary to really label it as the largest. And the Blue whale is significantly larger than Argentinosaurus. With the largest individuals reaching up to 200 tons. Far larger than Argentinosaurus, which currently sits at (at most) 110 tons.
Something i really like about the Paraceratherium (and Juxia) in PK is how each skin is clearly based on a different type of modern day rhinoceros. Transouralicum looks like a white rhino, bugtiense looks like an indian rhino and Juxia looks like a sumatran rhino
Who knew that being vegetarian can make you big. And even though Paracer looks like a giraffe mixed with a rhino but it’s related to rhinos even though it looks nothing like them. Kind of like how arsinoithereium looks like a rhino but it’s related to elephants
Paraceratherium is the world’s largest prehistoric land mammal and it is the Brachiosaurus looking rhino or the giraffe looking rhino. Indricotherium was Paraceratherium’s former name. 🦕🦏🦒🦏
Genshin Impact got some pretty interesting dino creatures in the newest nation Natalan. There’s Tepetlisaurus, a mole-Godzilla with the ability of Concavenator/Fasolasuchus; Yumkasaurus, a Procoptodon-Raptor thingy with a chameleon tongue; Koholasaurus, a Shark dragon, basically the equivalent of Spinosaurus. The Long-necked Rhino is from Natalan too. They recently got two new dinos, one of them is pretty much a Gallimimus-Ostrich, the other one is……well, somewhat a Bat-Owl thingy. I haven’t go to the new area yet, haven’t seen them in game. Genshin Impact also has a lot of interesting looking birds too.
Granted, mammals haven’t had the time to evolve to sizes that rival dinosaurs. Dinosaurs had much more time to evolve a large form unlike mammals. I bet if mammals had couple more hundred million years, many would get way larger.
Given the biological restrictions most land mammals face, it’s pretty unlikely. Most of our estimations conclude that mammals like Paraceratherium are as big as we could get.
@ Yes but given enough time I’m sure that mammals would’ve evolved to handle larger sizes and break those restrictions. Though it would probably have to be from the monotreme family. If a little lizard can evolve to become Argentinosaurus, Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops over millions of years, I’m sure a platypus could evolve just as big if given enough time.
Too late. But hey, they've also had Dodos in North America for some Reason and I think the Humans are officially Neanderthals, so wouldn'tve been surprising if there would've been one

Animals from cenozoic are so tame compared to the animals from mesozoic
I think Shantungosaurus is larger then both but that would be their only Rival
@@geebee3894 shant is around 2-4 tons smaller than both of them
Paraceratherium and pelaeloxodon: we are the expection🔥
@@dom9300oh it is alright yeah I wasn't 100% certain but I know Shantungosaurus is the largest non Sauropod Dinosaur so I guess thats the third largest non sauropod land animal
Fun Fact: The ATATS from the empire strikes back were based on Paraceratherium. Btw that one is my favorite Star Wars movie
Dang someone beat me to it
Long necked rhino mentioned 🔥🔥🔥🗣️
I remember When playing Genshins natlan update, when learning that these big animals were called long necked rhinos, i immediately thought of paraceratherium.
I wonder if it’s actually inspired by it, glad you mentioned it
Now I'm curious in playing this game.
@ idk If I could recommend it, since the Gacha gameplay isn’t for everyone.
For me at least, I really love the game.
Not just in gameplay, but also in story, lore and artistic design like characters and especially music and atmosphere
Genshin ain't too bad,just try to ignore the gacha aspect as much as you can and it is actually a really fun game to play
A great video. Definitely one of my favorite mammals. I also got introduced to this animal thanks to Walking with Prehistoric Beasts. The name change too was interesting.
You know that Paraceratherium is a liked animal when Genshin Impact has his own Paraceratherium
That profile picture belongsss to ME
When they said "Long-Necked Rhino" I definitely screamed THEY HAVE PARACERATHERIUM!!!
For real?
In Genshin Impact, the long-necked rhinos are literally immortal, if you attack them they'll stomp on you and knock you back.
*Spoiler for 5.1 archon quest*
Which makes the sight of one of them (Toto) being toppled over during the war segment of the quest all the more haunting
imagine having the many interpretations of hallucigenia and seeing aot come up first
You can’t say no to a snack
Walking with beasts is how I learned about these beautiful animals and they have been burned into my brain ever since.
Paracaratheruim IS the largest terrestrial mammal. 4.8 m height and 22 tons weight. It is a result of my calculations, using the skeletal reference and elephant body density (950 kg/m3). Dzungariotherium is estimated at 20.6 tons, being slightly smaller (Wikipedia info)
Palaeoloxodon namadicus was downsized to 4.5 height and 18.5 tons (For 4.5m individual I got the same result)
Paraceratherium is an extinct _rhinoceros_ relative, but you used _elephant_ body density.
@@GlennKurusu yes. And I don't have a guarantee that 950 is accurate for elephantia. But all terrestrial mammals have a body density 930-970 kg/m3. 950 for elephants I founded somewhere in forums. And it sounds quite normal, so I used it. And the difference in result between 930 and 970 density is minor. You can recalculate it easily with a different density
@@Quazzy23 .., Thank you for the well-informed reply.

And then came Walking with Beasts. PK's version of the animal has that same majestic vibe like Jurassic Park's Brachiosaurus.
There was a stop motion short called Age of Mammals that is on youtube. It's referred to as Baluchitherium and it's hairy.
Bro thanks for telling it I love these stop motion documentary alot
I have my own Paraceratherium character name King P in some stories I wrote. He is rhino color with green eyes and wears a crown of gold.
I loved this animal ever since I saw that "Walking With Beasts" episode. It's hard to go wrong with a rhino with a giraffe-like body. I also really like the designs for the leveled up versions in "Jurassic World: The Game" and that "Genshin Impact" creature.

A few interpretations of Paraceratherium that I’m aware of are:
1) Mark D Wolf’s Age of Mammals - In this stop motion documentary, it’s referred to as Balucitherium & is also depicted with a shaggy coat
2) Dinotopia: Journey to Chandara - Paraceratherium is one of the many Cenozoic Mammals that inhabit the Forbidden Mountains
3) Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope - While Paraceratherium doesn’t appear in the film, the Ronto seems to be partially based on it.
The Mysteries of our known Universe continues on.

It’s one of the only mammals to rival the majesty of dinosaurs!
Is there any chance for Struthiomimus to get the spotlight?
Species included:
1. Struthiomimus altus (Campanian to early Maastrichtian)

dammit now I REALLY wanna play Genshin again. thanks
Oooh Genshin long neck rhino mentioned letsgooooo
Let’s go
For Toto!
I love Toto! Thanks for mentioning the Long-Necked Rhinos my guy 👍👍👍
It looks so cool
GENSHIN IMPACT MENTIONED 🗣🗣🔥🔥
Anyways nice video
oh yeah the perfect ParaceraSauropodmorph, Genshin Cooking
There is a digimon called Baluchimon
Baluchitherium usca junior synonym of Paracertherium.
It appeared in Digimon Adventure 2020 as glowing light after being purified from Skull Baluchimon which is a reference to bone war shenanigans.
Nice vid as always!
I'm surprised you didn't mention the Ronto from Star Wars, who appears to be inspired by Paraceratherium.
I got to see a full model skeleton in the Ueno museum in Japan! It's so huge and cool to see up close!
Deinosuchus next pls!!! :D

Can you make videos of your top 10 to favorite books about prehistoric creatures
Wasn’t there a Stop Motion one seen on Mark D. Wolf's Age of Mammals? Especially under its' previous name "Baluchitherum"?
Great video! I’d love to see Archelon/Protostega in the next poll
I love how the depiction of Juxia points out the relation between rhinos and horses, coz it really looks like a mix of both!
The giant hornless giraffe rhino is here. Love your videos and walking with beasts introduce me to this. But why is it called Indricotherium
It's a synonym due to the complicated history of classifying the animal.
genshin mentioned, gotta watch. actually thinking about it, would you be interested to look into the genshin saurian designs to see where they took insperation from
That's actually a very good video idea
I would watch that .
They are much closer to miniature versions of kaiju or dragons than any real reptiles.
In a parallel Timeline there a line of movies called Pleistocene Park and the third installment had Paleoloxodon. n vs. Paraceratherium with the Paleoloxodon impaling the Para in the ribs with its tusk, the debate rages on to this day between paleo nerds.
Yaay, my fav. I learned about it the same way you did
Can you do the many interpretations of Sarkastodon
Great Video!
8:11 Pretty sure the stuff on the legs is some armor or boney plating i think
looks pretty cool honestly!
Make many interpretations of entilodont
Para or indro is definitely one of my favourite extinct mammals also. I find it crazy how fast they evolved and grew after the extinction of the dinosaurs.
YESSSS IVE BEEN VOTING FOR PARA SINCE THEY FIRST GOT PUT IN THE POLLS
Para is such an underrated and unique animal, it deserves more attention
Me too man
Paraceratherium was also in Age of Mammals stop motion film.
Yeah it was. But they called it Baluchatherium
@@MarkTheDilophosaurus281 Paraceratherium certainly had an identity crisis.

Deinosuchus, the short face bear, Microraptor and Archaeotherium
I must ask, which short-faced bear: Arctodus or Arctotherium (the _South American_ Giant Short-faced bear)?
Something i really like about the Paraceratherium (and Juxia) in PK is how each skin is clearly based on a different type of modern day rhinoceros. Transouralicum looks like a white rhino, bugtiense looks like an indian rhino and Juxia looks like a sumatran rhino
There's some from anime called doremon, there are herd of paraceratherium and a bunch of Cenozoic animals
Finally someone else who noticed the rhinos in Genshin are paraceratherium, not sauropods
pause at 2:58, Dino guy go possessed by a demon WTF!
I think those guys are really, really cool!
Alioramus and qianzhousaurus!
Paraceratherium also popped up in Fossil Fighters Champions
Yee! Finally 🎉
Giraffe-rhino!
Nanuqsaurus pls
1:42 Mine, too.
Next interpretation can it please be either daeodon or helicoprion
Paraceratherium mod is coming to path of Titans. But I dunno how long they'll start to make it.
Aw man i wanted to see if you where gonna talk about fossil fighters paraceratherium
What normal people see: Paraceratherium
What Ark players see: Prime meat
have you made a video on arthropleura yet?
Yes, he has. Look at his playlist for The Many Interpretations of... series.
Is Paraceratherium Bigger than Paleoloxodon? Or is it just Taller?
Can i please ask for the chasmosaur
this makes me want to play ARK
Sigma video edge content😊
