- Being one of the largest animals to ever roam the earth has its upsides. Too big for most other animals to hunt, Sauropods could also reach food other dinosaurs could only view longingly. But being that big can also be a pain in the neck, especially when that neck is more than 25 feet long and weighs a couple tons.
Listen to University of Michigan Paleontologist Dr. Jeff Wilson Mantilla for a trip 200 million years back in time to learn how these long-necked dinosaurs got so big in the first place and the adaptations that allowed them to thrive. Hear stories about field work in India, Brazil, and Jordan, where Dr. Wilson Mantilla excavates some seriously big bones in search of evolutionary clues.
Transporting food from your mouth to your stomach isn’t easy when your neck is five times longer than a giraffe’s. Moving a few miles can be tough when you weigh more than seven school buses. Sauropods, like brontosaurus and titanosaurus, adapted over many millions of years to support and move their immense weight and size. Learn about all this and more at the Burke Museum's annual Dino Lecture, now bigger than ever!

The lecture starts at 7:04.
i love these lectures ❤️ keep new ones coming please
Just like a sauropod tooth.
Great lecture, but were the elephant sound effects at 1:04:45 really necessary? 😂😂😂
it just keeps going lol
Thanks for the intro that had nothing to do w dinosaurs
Then skip the intro. Jeez
This is a really good lecture. Thanks for posting it on yt.
So eventually they run out of teeth??
My first dinosaur book has the photo in the first slide.
So, if dinosaurs are reptiles, and birds are dinosaurs, then birds are reptiles. Warm-blooded reptiles. I wonder if penguins could evolve into something like a mosasaur and do live birthing.
That's one hell of a big 'match at 24:40...
