Honestly my favorite channel and series on YT.
I love it, perfect ammount of details to give a good depth summary but still understandable/ simple for everyone!
I've been recommended it around to people lol
Thanks!
A great month for Triassic enthusiasts! Greetings from Brazil
I'm Catholic and pray your channel grows as well as be massively successful. So kind and courteous, all your videos are safe for work and I can actually put them on a speaker without any worries.
Best channel
Thanks!
Awesome work. Thanks Raptor Chatter
You're welcome!
Thanks for the compilation! I always enjoy these videos.
Btw, I think there's a typo in the Potamotherium segment. The image says Gomphotherium
You're right! We had copy and pasted the formatting for it, and forgot to change the text!
Amazing content thank you for continuing to make great paleontology videos that inspire and educate!!! ❤️❤️❤️
The sound that wyverns make when you level them up in ARK. That is the sound that I picture Smilodon making lol
I love these vids! Thank you for taking the time to put them together for us.
Glad you like them!
I love these monthly summaries. They're both up to date at the time of uploading, and enjoyable on a rewatch/binge down the line.
Thanks for the video. I love these.
Glad you do!
the new Champsosaurus fossil along with Acmopyle and Perucetus have got to be my favorite fossil finds of August. for starters Choristoderes are a very underrated group of aquatic reptiles that I hope get more attention. second any new fossil finds from South America from the Paleocene to Miocene is just outstanding to hear.
Love the videos keep it up!
Fantastic Video as always! :) 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 ❤❤ 💖💖
Thanks!
@@RaptorChatter Your Welcome 🤗
Your "month in review" is a highlight. 😲I for one look forward to it.
Thinking about all these mammals, pterosaurs, small dinosaurs/birds... my mind wanders to a winter in NH, where the snow was about a foot deep in our back yard, but we watched an owl hunt for a couple of days (it hung out in the trees in our yard)... it would just dive down into the snow and come up with a mouse or a vole, or something... it was pretty amazing. I also had a dog that was pretty adept at hunting rodents in leaf litter and loose dirt. She would just jab her snout into the litter and pull up rodents. I always want to apply this behavior in my mind to these ancient animals, wondering what they must have been like...
Of course now I have been in AZ for decades... the owls eat cats, and my dogs chase bunnies.
Best paleo channel by far as this is not just cool art and a few facts these ARE the latest research papers.
Thanks!
I think your super cool too. I really like these monthly updates, keeps things moving instead of most of the sciences that do not really have frequent things going on . I think we are living in the time of maximum paleontology
Glad you enjoy the months!
The issue with the pterosaur parental care study is that there has been prior work showing allometry in juvenile vs. adult pterosaurs, and actually using that to argue IN FAVOR of superprecociality (the idea being that much as juveniles of giant theropods were often much more cursorial than the adults, the juveniles of large pterosaurs had different proportions to better suit the niche of a small flying animal before growing into their adult proportions to suit the niche of a large flying animal).
I will say, however, that even such an extreme level of age-based niche partitioning wouldn’t fully rule out parental care. Crocodilians go through niche partitioning as they age (babies and smaller juveniles living in much shallower and more cluttered bodies of water and filling niches akin to frogs or small/mid-sized predatory turtles, while adults tend to be found in larger bodies of water and feed more heavily on both fishes and on larger tetrapods) and they still have parental care, so why not larger pterosaurs?
Awesome thankya dug
Amazing Video :)
My favorite month, Augs.
I fixed it! I just sent it live and realized I forgot to change it as soon as I set it live
@@RaptorChatteraww I thought it was funny lol
@@RaptorChatterAww, poor Aug, doesn't have a monthly review of their own any more. You Monster! 😂
Neat!
Anyone know why the climate started to change in the Eocene? For 100 million years or longer, there was no ice on the poles and the climate was steamy. It seems like the 25 million years or so of our cooler climate is an anomaly.
I actually just learned about this a couple weeks ago! One idea is something called the Azolla Event. Around 49 million years ago huge blooms of the freshwater fern known as Azolla appeared in the Arctic Ocean. At the time the ocean was mostly cut off from the rest so a layer of freshwater on the top of the ocean allowed these ferns to bloom. Azolla is very efficient at carbon capture so it absorbed large amounts from the atmosphere. Furthermore, the ferns that died sank to the bottom of the ocean, and with them being incorporated into the sediment this further spurred the absorption of carbon and cooled the planet down over the course of around 800,000 years. That's the general gist, I recommend you look further into it, it's super interesting!
For the cooling it seems like it has a lot to do with ocean currents. As Australia and South America became fully separate from Antarctica it allowed a current of cold water to become established around the continent. Ice sheets could build, then it dried because of that. Which meant more grasses than trees. The continued building of the Rockies also allowed more snow/ glaciers to develop, same with the Himalayas. So mountain building + ocean currents.
Do you think it could've been a combination of both events or that the establishment of Antarctic currents was the major reason for cooling?

Uh that says Gomphotherium not Potamotherium
There is an unmistakeable pattern ; Wherever humans show up , everyone else disappears.
Augs or Uggs?
I find it bizarre th te mont in reiews vids dont do as well - theyre fantstic
I guess it's the longer run time that discourages some from watching. I agree though, the monthly review videos are awesome.
It's the longer run time, and the lack of a more catchy title/thumbnail. It's not clickbaity enough for YT algorithms
