      Seriousely, to be honest, a Leptictid would be a perfect candifate for a Scrat-like species on Kaimere, althought, true rodents are also capable of being mostly bipedals and also serving as good candidates.

    Ever since I watched Walking with Beasts, I've known about Leptictidium. It wasn't my favorite animal of the episode though, that honor belongs to Ambulocetus, the walking whale himself. Regardless, Leptictidium is a cool prehistoric mammal. I'm hoping to see it appear in Prehistoric Kingdom as a mini exhibit animal, maybe something like the tropical lawn exhibit in the Xbox Zoo Tycoon game. In fact, I'm sure that Leptictidium was represented in Prehistoric Kingdom through one of the kiosks, perhaps a hint to a future mini exhibit animal.
    It's nice to see that some Leptictids made it to the modern times of Kaimere in Kairul. Great job as always and I'm looking forward to seeing what comes next. Keep it up.

    Adorable little mammal theropods! Here I thought they missed the two famous harvests, when it turns out they could have lined up with both.
    Who knew that the Oligocene harvest might be so contentious? Though I guess it makes perfect sense due to the fossil record's incomplete nature.
    Even in its twist and turns, with new evidence and challenges to old ones, Kaimere, like the many creatures calling it home, continues to evolve and thrive in its changing context!
    Edit: I am SO stoked for the polar oceans episode next!! If only I had the funds to do so, I'd love to sponsor an ecosystem/species idea I had for the Arctic continent.

    I'm sure I speak for a lot of people in stating that Leptictidium has been among my favourites ever since WWB, so this is a very welcome surprise. The burud in particular is fantastic, love the colours and patterns you chose. I've seen a lot of attempts at "theropod mammals" across different projects, but now I'm wondering why no-ones ever based them on leptictids before because it just fits seamlessly. Wish I'd come up with it first lol

      Thank you! Civets were my main color inspiration for them. Wanted something distinct from panthers, hyenas, and other familiar predators but still something like what we see in carnivorans. Helps evoke a mammal predator in our minds. I of course am also a huge WWB fan and that's where the concept originated when I was making the first Kaimere creatures back in middle school.

    Have to say, the Burud might be one of my favorite additions to Kaimere! It's unique, yet it feels extremely familiar, just not in a mammal context. A Mammalian Theropod is a fun idea, and Leptictidans being used to fit it works surprisingly well. The other Leptictidans are also nice additions, and I think their unique build fits Kaimere pretty well!

    The Burud is genuinely really cool, it reminds me of a giant shrew somewhat. I could easily imagine a Burud being a very effective nocturnal predator that primarily targets animals smaller then itself, they also look tall enough to come up behind someone and just bite their head or shoulder and then using their claws to inflict fatal wounds.

    Kairul really does up the size of everything. Regardless if you're a half ton entelodont or a tiny hopossum, you're getting larger. Also Burud gives me Hamsters Paradise vibes. (Burud thinks he's a theropod 💀)
    1. Are interactions between Burud and Komatu packs documented? I assume conflict is known but I wonder if they ever cooperate.
    2. Are there any Burud skin changers?
    3. Are the sloth bear possums as belligerent as their namesake?
    4. In the newsletter, you misspoke and said Kaishel instead of Kairul. Are there any animals similar to the leptictidids there?
    5. Is the next episode longer than the sloth one? You said it was one of the longest so I wonder if it's the new top dog apart from Kahai.

    • @TalesofKaimere
      @TalesofKaimere  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      1. No cooperation is documented, and the smarter, socially complex, and more coordinated komatu generally dominate these interactions.
      2. Most likely. They are culturally significant predators, which are common candidates for skin-changer lineages.
      3. Yes.
      4. My bad! That's what I get for referring to the Amenetran names that include 'realm' or 'Kai' into the names. As for Kaishelan leptictids, no. That region was isolated before their evolution and introduction to Kaimere.
      5. No, it's like 30 seconds shorter than sloths. I think sloth still holds the second place title after Ka'Hai

      1. That's a big reason for their restriction to shallow water. They can jump and swim for a very short time, so can breathe in waters around a hundred feet deep, though much deeper and they can run into trouble.
      2. Yes, though many animals are large enough that it takes many Møorkutlot to bring them down.

    So, as usual, most of my questions and thoughts on the episode will be on the DA's post of the slides displayed on it.
    But I will mention here some of the most important elements to speak about about this specific one, as it's not nothing (and you ask for my throughts on DA anyway, so here they are).
    1) As usual, this episode was good and very entertaining. It was a small, typical episode with only a glimpse of species, but it was sufficient about what it give and we are completely satisfied by the info given in it.
    And even, the few we received act as a perfect introduction for more and additionnal contents for the future (especially the "more giants" predatory species even larger than the Burud itself).
    2) Half of the episode is dedicated aboutt he Evolutionnary History of the family, aka the "Why and How" about Leptictidae being present on Kaimere despite being Eocene defined animals (at least for people for he most part).
    But even if it take about an half of it and less species can be as such displayed, it was a good informative section and an important, obligatory passage in order to justly justify this group's presence while none Eocene Harvest have been establsihed so far in the Lore of Kaimere.
    My and many others I guess were ostly excited and impatient about this episode justly mainly about this specific aspect, since Leptictidae are famousely knwon from this period and justly only the Oligocene harvest have been confirmed to have existed before the Tyrants Dynasty Extinction.
    Seeing how you will overcome and reseolved this tricky and seemingly at first glances difficult outcome was what I and most of us were intringued to see.
    I wouldn't be surprised that many followers thoughts you was near about to rewrite/edit a bit the Lore and established Harvests (wasn't my case per say).
    So, it was finally very good and amazing that you haven't much of a problem to explain aat the end how these animals managed to get on Kaimere.
    Simply by tellinng us true real-life but extremely minors facts that aren't at all known by the public (as 99% of info about Leptictidium came from WWD, which itself only give a fraction about an given ecosystem and the animals displayed in the episodes).
    And using as fair and valid point about the incomplete fossils record and all the others bias elements that are in general left on the sides.
    3) Something very personnaly and ironic from me.
    Ironically, some weeks ago, on the comments of one of the previous episodes, I had a short discussion with a guy and that ended up mostly about what and how famous Eocene fauna as displayed in episode 1 of WWB would do well or not on Kaimere in a what if scenario.
    Especially Leptictidium and its family Leptictidae.
    To which at one moment I said it's was a lame they weren't on Kaimere (was back before this episode was announced) because justly how interesting the potentials evolutionnary routes these animals would otherwise have undergo if they had a opportunity.
    And one of my proposal was a giant carnivorous kangaroo-like species inhabiting Kairul.
    XD
    And I was stunished to elarn from the DA post of the original Pakardia map back when Kaimere was at it earliest days that there was already a giant carnivorous Leptictidium on the map and that there will be some weeks latter (today as I write this comment here so) a reveal of this species !
    And then there was the reveal of this episode ...
    This situation made me laugh so much !

    Hello, I would like to know more about the quadrupedal theropod (allosaur?) that you mentioned in your last video because, and I say this with all seriousness, I came up with the same thing. Back in 2019, I wrote a paper on my favorite animal (allosaurus) and I included a vignette in where a tyrannosaurus bares witness to derived quadrupedal allosaur hunting a trio of edmontosaurus. I’ll share my spec history if you share yours. All in all have a good day.

      Love to hear it! The concept of a quad theropod is very cool. All the big formidable predators and indeed dangerous large herbivores we have today are quadrupeds so it is a great way to click with audiences and associate the part of their brain that registers a dangerous animal with being a quadruped. It's a great design and think was executed especially well in the Indoraptor.

      @@TalesofKaimere Thanks. I’ll post the vignette later today for anyone curious. What I would like to know is how the forelimbs of your concept work, because the brief glimpse I got has left me hungry for more. Going into the spec. evo. of my creature, circa 2019, an allosaur got small to deal with food scarcity in the late jurassic Morrison formation. Very small, about 10 kg. As time marches on and forests become more common, it would follow its prey into the trees, necessitating longer forelimbs, flexible wrists, and grasping fingers, perhaps even retractable claws. More time passes and it develops a life style akin to a leopard, dropping onto the backs of its prey, holding on with its forelimbs, and biting the throat to cut off circulation. Even more time passes and it leaves the trees. With its size no longer limited by the strength of tree branches, it gets big enough to hunt edmontosaurus on its own via ambush. And there you have it, my take on the quadrupedal theropod. Please, do critique.

    To be fair, borzois snout has very little to do with breathing while gripping and everything to do with giving the head a striking outline. In some of them the curvature is so extreme that the nose would be pressing into the body of the prey while gripping and actively hindering breathing.

      @@TalesofKaimere The nose being useful comes up in borzoi breed histories sometimes. Given that the roman nosed look doesn´t really pop up commonly in breeds from the same landrace like polish greyhound or in historical pictures of working borzoi, it almost certainly only became common once borzoi started to be bred for looks instead of actual work. I doubt it has any functional benefit for the animal.

    • @Andrey.Ivanov

      Thylacines, unfortunately, were unable to establish a niche in the competitive context of the Known World and and perished soon after their arrival (they are present in Kaimere's fossil record for about a 1000 years). This was discussed in the video about the harvest of Sahul if you need more context. But basically very few Australian predatory mammals managed to establish themselves during this time amidst the competition, with Thylacoleo standing out as the most prominent exception to this rule.

    • @TalesofKaimere
      @TalesofKaimere  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Indeed. As far as I could tell when I looked into the possibility a few years ago: rabies is very unlikely. The virus in its current form evolved in Eurasia after the harvests of those regions, and any dogs infected during the Mercantile Age would have already shown symptoms and been euthanized in the voyage from the Mediterranean to the portal. However, there are almost certainly related strains and similar viruses in Kaimere so the basic premise is totally plausible.

      Ground pangolins also come to mind. Many ground sloths were facultative bipeds, so maybe they shouldn't count. Also from the fossil record there is a monkey related to macaques called Paradolichopithecus, which shows similarity in ankle anatomy too australopithecines, which may suggest some level of bipedalism. But either way it's definitely rare in mammals or atleast the groups which have evolve it don't seem to have a lasting legacy (even we are the last species in the last bipedal hominin genus)

      The Harvest collected the last members of their order and from these very small bunch managed to explode and get a second chance.
      It's is very important I think to point out how the aspect of Luck is in this situation.
      As luck in real-life and nature about the survival of a clade isn't even a thing.
      I heard people saying that Archosaurs such Dinosaurs and Pterosaurs weren't as better adapted than the Pseudosuchian during the end Triassic Extinction and managed to survived into the Jurassic by luck.
      But for a whole clade, that isn't possible. They must had something more that Pseudosuchian didn't have.
      So, Bronto and Leptictid really didn't come far from definitively turning the gun to the left if they didn't had the luck that a alien organism collecting fauna for its home on Kaimere was present as well on Earth and procede to a collect at the convenient same time they were at their very end.
      They really had what others animals in general usually never received : Luck.
