      That was a great video about the ancient Theropods that, once upon a time, roamed within most land environments of the planet Terra.
      Still, with 3 major flaws:
      1. You've mixed too much the different clads of ancient Theropods. Since the Spinossaurus ain't really a dinosaur; and much mo likely; a bipedal crocodilian; with the same nostril array of pressure sensors, as a modern day Nile crocodile.
      2. The Dyinonichous or dromeossaurs, had most likely, either sparse or complete coated, proto feathers. Not modern day birds feathers!.
      3. You've went cheerleader, while trying to inform people about some important facts & science, regarding the natural history of the ancient Theropods. When you say that the T-Rex was anywhere beyond 10 tons in weight, together with probably being either bigger than a Spinossaurus, or a Giganotossaurus... When just the Giganotossaurus alone, with its lighter hollower bones, was almost 25% bigger than a T-Rex of the same weight.
      To conclude:
      You should refer mo, to the regional origins of each type of dinossaur, that you isolate, to talk about.
      There is a short video about the last Majungossaurus, that roamed the Southern part of the nowadays country of Angola, Africa; that also showcases some of the most prestige fossilized nest sites of the also already extinct Giganotoratpor.
      And such video, shows that most big carnivorous Theropods, were pretty territorial; plus most herbivores / omnivorous Theropods; were smart small-time enterprisers, of anything that was or would be available, to consume, on their residential or found, environment.

      YDAW sprang to mind with me, as well. Another thing I'd like to see Clint address is how dinos, etc., relate to the positions of the continents of their eras. Sure, they start and end at much different locations by era, but a depiction of the relative middle position of each would still be hugely helpful for visualizing the layout of the planet for each. Isolated snapshots, such as the S America-Antarctica connection, are nice, but an overview?
      Name your own value to seeing on a globe where the various nations of the world are located, vs only piecing them together from local maps. That was literally the reality for large-scale map making for almost all human history, and to the modern eye, the maps they created were absurdly bad. It was such a massive challenge that it took us millennia to get past it, and even then, almost all the improvements were concentrated into mere centuries. We're only a few generations away from a time when aircraft photography was the best H Sap could muster, and now you can view the Earth from orbit in real time from the convenience of your phone.
      Sorry, got a little carried away, but I think it was worth digging into a bit. How can you play Risk if you have no idea about any game piece's actual size, or you know that, but even though the borders matter, you can't see any of them?

    Can i just say how much I appreciate you making videos on prehistoric life?

    But as I grew older and learned more about dinosaurs, prehistoric life and evolutionary biology, now I can say my love for dinosaurs made me fall in love and learn to appreciate modern day animals as well!
    It's a shame that at least from my perspective, a lot of people interested in animals today don't share the same appreciation for prehistoric ones

    I just wanted to say thank you so much for this video. I grew up in a creationist household that taught me dinosaurs were a hoax, and after getting more into fossil hunting and starting to look into the early geologic periods and fossil records, I’m absolutely obsessed and going through my dinosaur phase at 23.
    The more videos like this the better, they make it so easy to understand the classifications and help lay everything out. I’d watch even longer form videos than this, the 37 minutes went by so fast!

      I spent a summer after freshman year of college living with my great uncle, who had helped pay for my college, but that meant being part of his niece’s (my aunt) family, since they all lived on one street. I knew the aunt’s had been exotic Scientologists in the 60s & had then converted to strict Christianity. I was expecting something like Missouri Synod Lutherans (doom, gloom, but also yes to science, just don’t bring it up lol!). I got my first real intro to fundamentalism. We had to go to classes before church on Sunday (I got a job on Sunday soon after) & I went to “Current Events.” It was all about how to break your kids’ hearts and tell them dinosaurs are a symbol of evil in the modern world and all that nonsense. I grew up in the UCC, we had the first female pastor in town (and first lgbt but that wouldn’t be known for a long time, we had 2 queer pastors back to back 1976 - 1990, I was a queer kid living on the Montana prairie who LUCKED OUT)! I am so glad you got the knowledge early!! Even though I’m pretty sure early Judaism most certainly did mean to warn people off knowledge a la Adam & Eve, many Jewish and Christian denominations interpret that as knowledge of sin. But all early religions were likely much-needed tools of social control, and that sticks in my mind always. Anyway congrats on your freedom!! You earned this Dino phase!

    Fun fact about Dilophosaurus: the frill we see it sporting in the JP franchise has no evidence in the fossil record of existing. It didn't even have that in the books, but Spielberg decided to give it the frill to make it more imposing and impressive. I have heard, Dilophosuarus was probably one of the larger dinosaurs roaming round at the time.

    I would love to see more on Ceratosauridae, my two favorite Dinosaurs are Ceratosaurus and Allosaurus, so I would never complain about hearing more.
    My favorite fact about Ceratosaurus is the design of its teeth, with the stubby lower teeth, and the huge slicing upper teeth. That to me is just such a cool design trait.
    With Allosaurus I just really appreciate how tough they were, with their fossils sporting healed wounds from things as nasty as Stegosauridae tail spikes and from tussles with other big dinosaurs.

      Honestly, the movie is not that bad, except for Velociraptor's name change and Dilophosaurus, most of the dinosaurs were correctly represented, for a fiction with no education purpose ^^
      I'd argue Jurassic Park did more good than harm to paleontology, yes it created some false ideas about dinosaurs, but it also forced everyone to accept the Dinosaur renaissance movement, without Jurassic Park, quick and agile dinosaurs would've stayed a nerd thing for decades. And it probably created more paleontologists careers than all the museums in the world combined XD

And later, Timmy explicitly says that Grant is partisan of the theory that dinosaurs get extinct by "changing into birds", a tad oversimplified, but the idea is there ^^

    To be fair to jurassic park, in Jurassic world Dr Wu said that the inconsistancies to real world dinosaurs were due to the gene splicing. He was hired to make them scary, not realistic.
    So maybe they used reptile DNA from frilled lizards or snakes or something to make dilophosaurus. Or unintended side effects.

    I have always been very interested in dinosaurs from a young age. I was always looking and collecting books on them and my bookshelves are... very heavy. I am so glad there is a knowledgeable person who has just as much interest as I do in them. I also really appreciate the way you say there are many possibilities without saying one as absolute fact as most do. I find things are always changing when it comes to prehistoric life and there are many theories present, along with changing theories, you are explaining them and encourage thinking without taking a bias side. Learning anatomy and technical terms from you is much more fun and easy than a lot of standard university courses. I am taking a lot of animal biology based courses in uni and your videos are helping to explain things to me that i may not completely understand in lecture. It is very refreshing and I appreciate you sharing your knowledge and making it fun!

    One cool clade of living theropods (birds) I think you should cover are the clade containing the swifts and the hummingbirds known as the Apodiformes which are one of the coolest families of birds in my opinion!

    The Triassic (and the Mesozoic by extension) started off with The Great Dying, the most devastating mass extinction event we currently know of. This extinction event wiped out 90-96% of all life on Earth. Every living thing on Earth for the last ~250 million years is descended from the 4-10% that survived. The Great Dying is the closest life on Earth has ever come to completely failing.
