I honestly love Basilosaurus. I had an exam in Biology and I used Basilosaurus and it’s ancestors as a way to answer a question on it. Got a B! Thanks Mr.King Lizard Whale!
just some constructive feedback: please, for the love of god, don´t make the background sound / imagined extinct whale sounds louder than the narration - or better yet: don´t mix narration with the sounds you want us to hear, so we can concentrate on one important thing at a time. nice video, I love learning about extinct whales and generally nature. keep up the good work!
As awesome as Basilosaurus is, it's also cool learning about its relative Dorudon and how the latter was able to dive into deeper parts of the ocean. All of the animations here are great, too!
Ah I missed this. Your videos are aways worth the while and wait and give that wonderfull feeling of learning something while relaxing at the same time.
I LOVE this series you do. The effort comes through in every frame. Thank you. Please keep them going! And thank you for clearing up Zeuglodon! I never realized it was synonymous with Basilisaurus!
I really hope that there'll be an official Walking with Beasts Documentary remake after the upcoming Walking with Dinosaurs remake. Episode 2 "Whale Killer" will always be my favorite.
Thank you so much! Basilosaurus has been featured in two videos before and received a redesign in the Perucetus video, so that was when I knew I had to cover this awesome animal. Hopefully I did both species a justice :D
Im late to this.....But i have to say this : I once used to binge your stuff, loved it, but as I grew up, I forgot about this.....I am on the verge of tears actually. As i just rewatched some of your stuff, I just felt a wash of nostalgia come over me. God speed man !
hello Nature's Compendium! Let me introduce myself, my name is Domiziano, I'm an Italian, I've been watching your videos for a while but I've never signed up and above all I've never commented as I was a bit shy😅 but today oh I decided to sign up and to write below this beautiful video on basilosaurus❤️ wouldn't you talk about Fasolasuchus in the next video?
Sweet work on the designs, dude! Really hoping we get to see Basilosaurus in a park builder at some point, whether it's Jurassic World Evolution 3, Prehistoric Kingdom or something else. Been in love with this creature ever since watching Walking with Beasts as a kid. Moeritherium sure looks different, though. I take it there was some groundbreaking discovery that drastically changed our understanding of it since Walking with Beasts?
"Man, Basilosaurus really was the OG of underwater monsters! Imagine cruising the ancient oceans, thinking you're safe, and then this 60-foot whale-croc hybrid shows up with that classic 'I'm at the top of the food chain' energy. Nature really knew how to keep things interesting back then! Great video, learned a lot and had a few laughs too!"
So the hunting scenes in WWB aren't entirely accurate, but not terrible either I assume? The Basilosaurus mom used speed but seemingly in short bursts.
It's hard to believe that it took twenty five million years for the niche left by the largest Marine Organisms at the end of the Cretaceous to be refilled.
Great video! only nitpick is putting a mid video sponsorship in a video thats supposed to be educational, but at least you made it a chapter that can be easily skipped which is very considerate :3
Glad you enjoyed it! Now for a bit of transparency: The ad placement was at the discretion of the sponsorship, so I tried my best to at least integrate in a way where watching it was still somewhat entertaining and didn't interupt the flow too much of the video, and of course adding it as a chapter for the option to skip. I don't do mid roll ads in my video and that does impact how much I can make from ad revenue, so sponsorships are very crucial in helping to fund bigger projects. This particular sponsorship will help me fund my upcoming Carnotaurus video, along with the generous donations from my Patreon supporters who have helped keep my channel afloat since 2021 thanks to providing the funds I need to keep my software subscriptions. One day, I'd like to be at a point where I can do this full time and I have enough funding from Patreon plus ad revenue to do so, but I'm far from that point as of now... Non-aquatic animal videos, especially dinosaurs, are the most expensive projects to produce in general. Hence why the majority of my animated content cover aquatic creatures since I keep the costs for those projects a little lower. Hope that clears things up a bit.
Right now I'm already working on Carnotaurus next but perhaps in the future if I get more funding! Land based animals are very expensive to produce videos for unfortunately.

I bet the ancestors of whales returned back to the ocean to escape the giant prehistoric snakes that terrorized what is now Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia.

Isn’t Moeritherium supposed to have a trunk
I will always appreciate “Walking with Beasts” for introducing me to this creature
Nice! I love the "walking with..." Trilogy ❤
For me, it was ark survival evolved
For me, it was a National Geographic's documentary called "The Walking Whale".
Yessss
I honestly love Basilosaurus. I had an exam in Biology and I used Basilosaurus and it’s ancestors as a way to answer a question on it. Got a B! Thanks Mr.King Lizard Whale!
a B? Seriously?
0:51 He looks so happy!
@@Pterosaursarecool Without all the problems created by human activities, of course. And without Orcas to be harassed.
just some constructive feedback: please, for the love of god, don´t make the background sound / imagined extinct whale sounds louder than the narration - or better yet: don´t mix narration with the sounds you want us to hear, so we can concentrate on one important thing at a time.
nice video, I love learning about extinct whales and generally nature. keep up the good work!
Ah , Basilosaurus. My beloved Hotdog Whale.
I love basilosaurs, pliosaurs, ceratosaurs, mylodonts, dicreaosaurs, mamenchisaurs and anhanguerids.
These are my favorite groups of animals.
As awesome as Basilosaurus is, it's also cool learning about its relative Dorudon and how the latter was able to dive into deeper parts of the ocean.
All of the animations here are great, too!
Thank you! Glad you like the animations!
One of my favorite prehistoric sea creature
#basilosaurus
What an amazing video by the way !!
Now I feel like I have to watch Walking with beasts again 🤩
The Basilosaurus reminds me of the Mosasaurus Genus. Convergent Evolution will never go away.
My #1 favorite prehistoric animal. I love the basilosaurs due too them being so similar to mosasaurs, dubbing them the Serpent whales.
Great video, I had no idea these noodle whales were a thing. Wish I could travel back in time and see them
Ah I missed this. Your videos are aways worth the while and wait and give that wonderfull feeling of learning something while relaxing at the same time.
Glad you like my work!
I LOVE this series you do. The effort comes through in every frame. Thank you. Please keep them going!
And thank you for clearing up Zeuglodon! I never realized it was synonymous with Basilisaurus!
Why thank you! This was definitely one of my favorite videos to work on and I'm pretty happy with the final result!
honestly a 30 meter long sea serpant would have been sick!
altough whale basilosaurus is also very cool.
I really hope that there'll be an official Walking with Beasts Documentary remake after the upcoming Walking with Dinosaurs remake. Episode 2 "Whale Killer" will always be my favorite.
#Basilosaurus my favourite noodle finally getting some love 😁😁❤🐋
So much cetacean singing in this video. 10 out of 10. 👍🏼
This was certainly pretty interesting. Hats off to you!
Thank you very much! Cheers!
I love how you still make beautiful art for your educational videos!
Thank you so much 😀
You managed to make basilosaurus look adorable
The most adorable murder noodle!
Lets go it dropped!
As a paleontology fan, I love it, keep it up!
#basilosaurus-that was an awesome premiere
Let's go, yet another banger paleo video. I always wondered when this animal would be covered here
Thank you so much! Basilosaurus has been featured in two videos before and received a redesign in the Perucetus video, so that was when I knew I had to cover this awesome animal. Hopefully I did both species a justice :D
Looking forward to pakicetus as well!
Im late to this.....But i have to say this : I once used to binge your stuff, loved it, but as I grew up, I forgot about this.....I am on the verge of tears actually. As i just rewatched some of your stuff, I just felt a wash of nostalgia come over me. God speed man !
Glad you're back!
It’s still annoying that they can’t rename Basilosaurus to Basilocetus, King Whale is so much more fitting & accurate.
ikr

Excellent video.
Glad you liked it!
Nice video and love your other channel and animations!
Appreciate that! I'm glad you like the content across both channels!
@ yeah! you guys have a cool narrator voice, animations, information, and habitat builds!
#basilosaurus I know the video has started yet but I just KNOW I KNOW it's gonna be worth it cause I like PK and I really love basilosaurus
Such a amazingly made video
Sweet work on the designs, dude! Really hoping we get to see Basilosaurus in a park builder at some point, whether it's Jurassic World Evolution 3, Prehistoric Kingdom or something else.

#Basilosaurus! I really enjoy this channel, keep up the good work!
Glad you enjoy it!
Always a treat to see you upload high quality, educational videos. You deserve more recognition as a science communicator
Thanks man, I appreciate it!
sausage whale is best whale
Great content on this amazing species. I think it is also the stae fossil of Alabama.
Always love the work on the animations of these videos.
#basilosaurus
Thank you very much!
#basilosaurus at first a came for the copy of prehistoriv kingdon but i stayed because i enjoyed the video
Awesome video btw, i love this, the visuals are awesome and the information preety through and complete, hopefully we can see more soon
I love this so much,also walking with dinosaurs 2 is coming next year are you excited? Because I am hope it good as the original
I'm super excited for Walking with Dinosaurs 2!
"Man, Basilosaurus really was the OG of underwater monsters! Imagine cruising the ancient oceans, thinking you're safe, and then this 60-foot whale-croc hybrid shows up with that classic 'I'm at the top of the food chain' energy. Nature really knew how to keep things interesting back then! Great video, learned a lot and had a few laughs too!"
Glad you enjoyed the video! And yea, I try to incorporate a few dashes of humor from time to time. Keeps things engaging😛
@@NaturesCompendium 💓
I remember doing a presentation about Basilosaurus in School
#Basilosaurus
The reptiles weren't the only terrifying toothed monsters
Finally, the goat of the sea is here. Basilosaurus.
4:07 LOL btw
The Serpent King Whale has arrived, one of the most unique prehistoric whale ever exist
Nice!!!!
So the hunting scenes in WWB aren't entirely accurate, but not terrible either I assume? The Basilosaurus mom used speed but seemingly in short bursts.
#basilosaurus love your work.
#Basilosaurus has always been my favorite extinct animals with a misnomer as a name
do allosaurus next or saurophaganax would be even better
Carnotaurus is next! 🦖
@@NaturesCompendium that's awesome can't wait
nice video
Make A vídeo about australopithecus please?
After this, please do “How Scientifically Accurate is the Jurassic Park Ceratosaurus?”
Its crazy how things just become a mosasaur when unput them in water
#Basilosaurus
So well edited omg!
Nice video 👍 can you make a video about the large Ichthyosaurs like ichthyotitan please
Planning on a video for Shonisaurus next year!
Love me some weird funky prehistoric whales! #basilosaurus
Amazing info and facts of this whales 😁
It's hard to believe that it took twenty five million years for the niche left by the largest Marine Organisms at the end of the Cretaceous to be refilled.
I’m quite sad that moeatherium no longer has its little trunk basilosaurus gone but not forgotten
#basilosaurus MY FAVOURITE BOY
#basilosaurus - love your content! Hope you blow up and become a huge channel!
#basilosaurus btw beautiful video. You insipire me to continue learning about all animals
Awesome! I'm glad my videos help to inspire you and others to learn more about our natural world!
I always thought that they should call basilosaurus basilocetus
You forget to mention that they don't get stunned by jellyfish!
#Otodusauriculatus is a to my favorite Megatooth Shark.
#Basilosaurus
Edit: OMG I GOT A HEART THANK U SO MUCHHHHHHH AAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!
Make a video about megalania
Love the channel could we see more comparisons from Jurassic Park to Real Life or prehistoric planet videos? #Basilosaurus
I'm actually working on a Jurassic World Carnotaurus right now and that video will be out sometime in November!
1:47 palaeophis??

2:25 they probably brought it back due to it being so cool

Since this creature was not a marine reptile (as the first paleontologist who discovered it thought so), I would rename it Basilocetus.

#basilosaurus the great noodle
Basilosaurus
#Basilosaurus Basilosaurus is the better Mosa. King lizard for a reason!
King Lizard due to incompetent researchers🗣🗣🗣‼️ #Mosasaurus
#basilosaurus
It is a really interesting animal.
I bet the ancestors of whales returned back to the ocean to escape the giant prehistoric snakes that terrorized what is now Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia.
My uncle's name is Basil, I think he'll enjoy knowing there's a noodle whale with his name 🐋
Aye that's wonderful! Hope uncle doesn't mind sharing his name with this ancient Egyptian sausage whale 😛
@@NaturesCompendium He's a super devout Muslim, so at least it wasn't a dog haha
just to say, basilosaurids were not early toothed whales (Odontocetes) but were early whales who fed with TEETH lol
Good catch!
Mosasaurs ahhhh whales.
#basilosaurus🎉🎉🎉🤞❣️
