    The past is a vast and mysterious land that begins at the big bang and ends in the present, expanding with each passing moment. It is the home of everything that came before, the key to understanding our present. Here we find the most amazing creatures to ever roam our planet, hundreds of millions of species so diverse that our imagination cannot do them justice. Unfortunately the past carefully guards its secrets.

      @@ProntoLamatic It is true, both of the things they said, not all dinosaurs were like birds and not all of them had feathers. Not that I am saying the biology major is wrong, they just need to phrase what they said a bit better. The thing you have to understand is that dinosaurs lived for about 3 times the amount of time it has been since they disappeared, and so they were very bio-diverse. Humans and whales are more closely related than something like tyrannosaurus and triceratops are.

    I don't really cry at sad movies, stories or books despite being an emotional person... And yet this brought me to tears. At how much information has been lost, how many species there are to mourn as completely dead, at how amazing life is, and how important it is to preserve. Amazing video- I never had much of an interest in dinosaurs before now!

    Paleontologist here, since I was a child I have always been fascinated by dinosaurs, all the books I read, toys I bought, documentaries I watched, etc. EVERYTHING was related to dinosaurs. It seemed incredible to me that millions of years ago such creatures existed. Since that age I knew that my passion was paleontology, I never was a model student, I spent 2 years in a career that I did not like because I could not enter the biology degree, I repeated the university entrance exam and after 7 years since after finishing school, I was able to graduate as a biologist and ended up being a paleontologist. From the books I read as a child with lanky dinosaurs looking like giant lizards until I first collaborated in the excavation of a dinosaur many years have passed, I try my best every day trying to find out how these magnificent creatures looked like.

      You're joking, but the coloration is entirely artistic license to make a nice looking video. Think about it; why would either predator or prey develop coloration that works against them being able to survive and breed longer? Birds that are extremely colorful usually live in environments that suit their coloration and have an advantage of being able to quickly flee by flying away. Exotic bird coloration also is usually more prominent in males, where the range of genetic variation is greater in almost all species. That coloration is also frequently used as distraction away from females that have eggs or hatchlings just as much as in mating rituals. Most mammals, reptiles, insects, and slower birds are earth or plant toned or at least suited to their environment/role in the food chain.
      Even the idea that dinosaurs had feathers is based on the presumption that the marks of soft tissue are the same as modern birds; they could just as easily have been quills like in a porcupine or some chitinous formations like in insects or keratin like hair and nails in mammals. Taking this video to its own conclusions of randomly adding more soft tissue because animals have it now would lead to thinking an animal like a tiger had huge wing flaps like flying squirrels and that they glided down from trees to get prey. They use an example of of making a sea lion look like a four legged land animal, but it can just as easily go the other direction.

      @Horamberg no, i didn't say evolution only produces better results. It's a result of environmental pressure. It's far more likely mass extinctions occurred because of cyclical imbalance in carbon levels causing plant explosions which put so much oxygen in the air fires last longer and burn wider. Volcanic activity was higher then and until humans started deforesting wide swaths of land, most forests were on fire yearly.

      @RainCheck "We are currently in the biggest mass extinction event" Wrong.
      1st: Ordovician Silurian
      "There are approximately 445 Ma, at the limit between the Ordovician and the Silurian, a mass extinction occurs, probably following a great glaciation which would have recorded climatic and ecological disorders making difficult the adaptation of species and ecosystems to the retreat of the sea for hundreds of kilometers, then on its return at the end of the glacial phase. It results in the disappearance of 27% of families and 57% of genera of marine animals11,12, and an estimate of 85% at the species level."
      2nd: Carboniferous Devonian
      Between 380 and 360 million years ago, the Devonian extinction, which includes several phases of extinction, eliminated 19% of families and 35 to 50% of genera of marine animals11 and an estimate of 75% at the species level 14. Repeated and significant variations in sea level and climate, as well as the appearance of significant vegetation cover on the continents, could be the cause of ocean anoxia and major biological crises. The causes of these changes are still debated.
      3rd:Permian-Triassic
      Between 252 and 245 Ma ago, the Permian-Triassic extinction was the most massive. Almost 95% of marine life disappears as well as 70% of land species (plants, animals). This extinction was preceded by two smaller events, the extinction of Olson (−273 Ma) and that of the Capitanian (in) (−260 Ma)
      4: Jurassic Triassic
      201 Ma ago, the Triassic-Jurassic extinction marked the disappearance of 75% of marine species, and 35% of animal families, including most of the diapsids and the last of the large amphibians.
      5th: Cretaceous Paleocene
      66 Ma ago, the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction killed 50% of species, including non-avian dinosaurs.
      We are not living through a mass extinction nor the "biggest"
      "In 2007, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature estimated that one in eight bird species, one in four mammals and one in three amphibians"
      It does 20% we are far faaaaar away from the 80%(or even 50), so don't worry we are not living through the "biggest mass extinction event".
      I'm not denying a lot of species are dying out there that shouldn't tho and it is a problem.

      I don't even get what about having feathers and colors make them less cool. I've never gotten the argument. For one, dinosaurs aren't fiction or made up. They really existed. So you can't just be a designer and DECIDE how they looked based on how much you like it. For two, having feathers doesn't make them look less cool?? I think it actually makes them look COOLER. The intricate designs and interesting mechanisms you get from feathers can't be replicated by flat skin with scales. Have you seen birds of paradise? If they were the size of a t-rex and frilled their feathers, you'd be WAY more scared of them than any rex.

      I call it a win , people tend to fantasize about a lot of things and have misconceptions about different situation , I'll put it this way imagine a dog as large as you are that's faster has bigger teeth , can out climb you outrun you and outswim and is impossible to domesticate and that's not even 25% of how dangerous it would be with dinosaurs alive today , there would be nowhere you could run or hide ,and each time you sleep could possibly be the last time , even going outside for food would mean death because of "death from above"(I'll let you guess what I'm talking about)

And I know it is only going to accelerate. At some point, it’ll hit you too. Maybe sooner, maybe later. You just have to make sure you do what you can to get the things you want out of life as quickly as possible before it’s too late. Go all in and make the most of what you’re able to. Or just sit back, relax, and watch the show. Whatever is right for you.

      Its not sad, that's how it exactly should be.
      And with our (humans) god like powers as a collective we can do so much more.
      And how can we?
      With education, and expending our knowledge, and sharing it with the entire human species. With the will to be good gods, the kind that would role this universe (or perhaps multi) with intelligence and kindness.
      So go ahead and learn something, then teach it to someone else.
      And the most important thing to learn and remember, is that humanity is kind and good from there basic genetics.
