"You know what we need? A wombat that thinks it's a lion" - Evolution
A killer koala
@@kwanarchive And *this* particular animal is to be thought of as a massive, homocidal, wombat.
Life has infinites forms but only a few are really viable, you can see it in animals like elephants or crows, they tried to be as intelligent as humans but only our anatomy allowed us to dominate this planet.
@@rommdan2716 Not at all, they are not as intelligent as us; the chimp shares approximately 95% of our DNA, but the software for true rational thinking simply is not there; the "software" is the soul, the "hardware" is the body.

Ay I was in Redwoods one time and I got fucking pounced by one.. came back 30mins later loaded to tame the cunt (which I did and its an event one.. still got it too.. had to name it "OH F4CK" because of my reaction when it got me 🤣)
fuckers got my argentavis, miss Neon Genesis EVANGELION the argy
Red Wood is a dangerous place to fly near trees or ground, they can be anywhere, haven't lost any Pteros there, but I've been attacked many times for sure🤣
I love that Ark has me researching so many different creatures out of sheer curiosity
same lol
i love seeing people drawn to my area of expertise by ark keep researching
😝
Thylacoleo needs to be in more documentaries. I am surprised Walking With Prehistoric Beasts did not have an Australia episode.
Because the human host would die SO FAST

Considering it was during the time of our mega flaura and fauna, it kind of was on the smaller side, but by today's standards maybe not.
100kg is less than most adult male humans, so for a large carnivore that is small.

That's actually the part that makes sense. We're talking about a predator in Aussieland, after all. It was always going to be terrifying as well as related to some of the most adorable little murder beasts in existence.

My favourite extinct marsupial, thank you very much for this excellent video !
The best point I can make about thylacoleo is, early people in Australia hunted Diprotodon as did Thylacoleo. Every time a carnivore eats what people eat, the carnivore loses.
Anyone else want to point out the fact that Australia's prehistoric fauna was just as weird and extreme and its modern fauna.
Talk about it.. It's like nothing changed really? Also, this marsupial lion thing kinda looks like 'Stitch' from that one movie *Lilo and Stitch* at 3:29 if you focus solely on It's grill
That's just what happens when life evolves in isolated conditions. You can find similarly weird animals in the fossil record for Madagascar or any other large island you want. Even the Galapagos. Specialization produces weird organisms.
Hey, I’ve just joined uni too, doing Palaeontology at Birmingham. It’s been a weird first semester, here’s hoping it gets better soon. Great video as usual guys, keep up the good work!

"bear like build cant climb" who ever said that forgot about black bears
But black bears are small.
@@Atheismo9760 They do actually weigh about the same as stated for Thylacoleo in this video.
@@horus228 We aren't talking about the thylacoleo. We are talking about the "bear build". And black bears are only capable of climbing because they aren't as heavy as brown bears.
@@Atheismo9760 I got that, but I dont get your point then. If a "small bear buld" like the black bear can climb very well then why should a marsupial with a similar build and weight like the black bear should not be able to climb?
@@Atheismo9760 or are you saying that black bears are no "bear buld" because they are small?

His voice is very soothing and the presentation of these videos is pleasant and non-jarring
An excellent video, very informative. But no mention of the Quolls at the end (possibly because they not as cool as the Dingo or Tassie Tiger). These little guys are are carnivorous marsupials that are still around today and have fossil records from the Pliocene and Pleistocene periods. I would love to see you do a video on the carnivorous marsupials in Australia today as i think you,d do a brilliant job.
Thanks, from a new subscriber.
You should do an entire 1 hour special on prehistoric animals noises. Sense we don’t really have a good idea on what they actually sound like, and the media overwhelms us with cheesy animal mixes noises for dinosaurs and old mammals. I feel like this would make a really good video in the future.
Probably one of my favorite animals ever right here.
And don't worry about your upload schedules, focus on Uni. The more you know the more you can show!
Ngl that’s a good sentiment
It's so cool to see convergent evolution in play and it seems that Australia was the capital of it and it so sad to loose the Thylecine, one of the convergent evolution masterpiece

Much respect to you guys for going to uni and furthering your knowledge. Hopefully the things you learn will crop up in the videos whenever you guys can upload
Sir, your videos are THE BEST videos discussing topics in paleontology for a lay audience. They're perfect! A perfect balance between technical language and ordinary English, highly informative, and without the tiresome dramatic nonsense or "dumbing down" that one ordinarily sees on youtube
Wonderful guys, I learn something new every time. I wish I had teachers like you when I was at school. Thank you.
The mythical drop bear, It was supposed to only be a legend!
Recent research based on bone structure suggests that those mega kangaroos couldn't hop like their modern cousins, they were too heavy. They just ambled along at a slow pace. They reached a height of 2 meters and weighed roughly 200 kg. Their huge size was their protection against predators . Humans arrived in Australia approximately 60000 years ago. These huge animals were easy to hunt. They quickly vanished over time due to hunting. DNA evidence suggests that the first humans to arrive in Australia descended from people who originated from southern India / Sri Lanka .
Your wrong about that last part it's now know that the first people to arrive in Australia were descendants from the first people to leave Africa that is now known As early out of Africa migration then they went to Asian and from There crossed into Australia
I knew we'd get an explanation for the slower uploads, congratulations to the both of you mad lads! We're incredibly proud and look forward to seeing the two of you grow in the coming years, just promise you won't miss the 400,00 special when it comes around, those videos are some of the most educating and awe inspiring on youtube.

They might be my favorite mammalian predators. The Marsupial Lions, especially in paleoart have this sleek, agile power to them. They are beautiful in the way a shark is beautiful, they are terrifying and awe inspiring with their massive incisors, shearing blades for teeth farther back and the large thumb-like grasping claws.
The lack of consensus around the extinction of Australia megafauna is the very reason to make a video on it!
it's so hard to find material on it
Of course we understand that your university studies come first. I look forward to the day when we see documentaries presented by Dr Ben G Thomas and Dr Doug James!

Come on, i still think we deserve company in terms of sapient species. By the way, if there were species "behaviorally similar" to us in some way, based on already existing animals, i don't believe they would behave like what you call furrys... we probably would never have invented this concept at all.
And yes, i known how unlikely it is for multiple sapient species to emerge in the same period of time, even in such a scenario, but i would still like to live in such a world.😅
@@cavegremlin3851
@@Call_Me_Storyteller There are other species that show a high level of intellect and have evolved to utilize tools, I don't think the idea of other sapient species emerging is too far fetched.

E. Ok, so there's a lot of comments that's not following what I said. Take the dinosaur age. Right? We have the era of dinosaurs. Check. Ok, now lets remove the dinosaurs. No dinosaurs. Follow?

Guys appearently [Obligatory at this point] that the Spinosaurus might have to be rechange or rearranged once again as the latest publication does indicate that the fsac kk specimen is extremely dubious (well it kinda ressurrects the whole *chimera* situation)

@@miquelescribanoivars5049 John Hutchinson from the respectable England university has already said those about the FSAC kk specimens uncertainty. Scot Hartman is only validating is even further.
On the other hand Ibrahim has said the calculation of Spinosaurus weight is wrong and the animal could be as massive as 10 to 12 tons so decide yourself
@@thedoruk6324 FSAC kk 11888 is almost certainly not a chimera. It all comes from the same quarry, there is no overlapping material, dorsal vertebra centra fit neatly in size with the caudals and more importantly all bones have the same hystological inferred age and isotopic markers.
Meanwhile Stromer himself said in his 1932 publication that Spinosaurus B (the individual Scott based his skeletal on) was most likely a chimera, and the fact that three different furcula were assigned to the specimen is indeed pretty eyebrow rising.
Also while I don't doubt Scott's professionalism as an paleontographer he's never eximened the bones himself nor study them directly. There is just no way he knows more about them than the guys he discovered and described them. He was already wrong back in 2014 about the hindlimb elements scaling in the specimen for starters.

Yes, which is why histological and isotopic tests were performed, and those clearly showed they belonged to an individual of the same age, and in the same trophic and climate conditions. Given the lack of overlapping material it is way more likely the belong to the same individual than that were two identical specimens in the same quarry.
Out of all these depictions of Thylacoleo, only two of them show the animal with its mouth closed.
