    Note that Nile crocs are actually largely piscivorous and that this is the norm for aquatic crocodylomorphs. They don’t just catch fish “on occasion” as claimed; they subsidy primarily on fish and only occasionally tackle land animals (simply due to lack of availability).

    I don't think it's accurate to compare the skull of Sarcosuchus with that of a gharial. They may be similar a first glance but they really aren't. The skull of Sarcosuchus is still a lot more robust than that the more slender snouted fish eating crocs it's often compared to. You also have to remember that dinosaurs were less dense than comparitively sized mammals. It probably wouldn't have required as much force to bring down.

    Also a topic suggestion. There is a trend on TH-cam to refer to birds as "non avian dinosaurs". That always struck me as odd as would it also then not make sense to call mammals "non milk producing fish"? As you point out in this video it feels like Sarcosuchus should be considered a crocodile but it is technically not one, and I have also heard that the classification "fish" problematic for many reasons. Basically I suggest a video about Taxonomy and the problems about it.

    Sarco seems to have a meatier jaw than gharials for its size, even if they're the closest analogue. That plus how the jaws get thicker at the tip makes me wonder if this was just to grab slightly bigger/tougher fish better or to snatch small critters from near the shore. (teeth/ability to grip at the tip good for grabbing things at the end of its reach, but increases in water resistance might cancel this benefit a bit when it only comes to nabbing creatures underwater)

    If you look more closely at the jaw structure of Sarcosuchus you can clearly see that it’s jaws Besides being much bigger are also Considerably thicker and more robust then that of any Gharial & even the False Gharial Which only makes sense Considering the fish in those waters were giants.
    And while I agree that it’s quite doubtful that it would of been able to attack and dismember something as large as a Trex 🦖 with a death roll like Dinosuchus or Purussarus likely could of
    or how a modern Saltwater or Nile crocodile 🐊 could do the same to a 1000 lbs. zebra 🦓 or even an 1800 lbs. Buffalo 🐃
    I can still see Sarcosuchus going beyond its primary diet of fish and adding on smaller 🦕dinosaurs half its size to its menu.
    What do you think 🤔???

  • @Trollo_Swaggins
    @Trollo_Swaggins 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I definitely see Sarcho as having a more fish based diet than going after dinosaurs. Maybe it prioritized to eat fish and small animal on the side

  • @TheAwillz
    @TheAwillz 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    from a biomechanics standpoint the most likely hunting strategy for such a animal without the ability to death role would be to use its teeth to latch onto victim and then use their size to drag them into deeper water and drown them, evidence for such a strategy could be the presence of conical teeth as opposed to any other type.

    Le sarcosuchus fut un des plus grands crocodiles de l'histoire pouvant atteindre 12 mètres de long et plus de 7 tonnes ( 9,5-10 mètres en moyenne ) il chassait les dinosaures dans les cours d'eau de l'Afrique du Nord il y'a 110 millions d'années il été surnommé supercroc par le célèbre paléontologue américain Paul sereno qui a découvert un squelette presque entier en 2000!

    The skull is much broader than a gharial’s even proportionate to size. The best modern morphological comparison would be an Orinoco crocodile or American crocodile.

    Sarcosuchus isn't a crocodile, not even closely related people just throw that around because it is easier to generalize since it looks like giant croc. This channel is one of the few to actually point this out
