Theropods. You know they are the coolest animals to ever walk the planet. You can name a few. But how many fingers did they have? How many are there? How are they related? And how did they do Dilophosaurus so dirty in Jurassic Park? There is so much that you don't know about theropods, and today, that's really going to change!

    • That was a great video about the ancient Theropods that, once upon a time, roamed within most land environments of the planet Terra. Still, with 3 major flaws: 1. You've mixed too much the different clads of ancient Theropods. Since the Spinossaurus ain't really a dinosaur; and much mo likely; a bipedal crocodilian; with the same nostril array of pressure sensors, as a modern day Nile crocodile. 2. The Dyinonichous or dromeossaurs, had most likely, either sparse or complete coated, proto feathers. Not modern day birds feathers!. 3. You've went cheerleader, while trying to inform people about some important facts & science, regarding the natural history of the ancient Theropods. When you say that the T-Rex was anywhere beyond 10 tons in weight, together with probably being either bigger than a Spinossaurus, or a Giganotossaurus... When just the Giganotossaurus alone, with its lighter hollower bones, was almost 25% bigger than a T-Rex of the same weight. To conclude: You should refer mo, to the regional origins of each type of dinossaur, that you isolate, to talk about. There is a short video about the last Majungossaurus, that roamed the Southern part of the nowadays country of Angola, Africa; that also showcases some of the most prestige fossilized nest sites of the also already extinct Giganotoratpor. And such video, shows that most big carnivorous Theropods, were pretty territorial; plus most herbivores / omnivorous Theropods; were smart small-time enterprisers, of anything that was or would be available, to consume, on their residential or found, environment.

    • YDAW sprang to mind with me, as well. Another thing I'd like to see Clint address is how dinos, etc., relate to the positions of the continents of their eras. Sure, they start and end at much different locations by era, but a depiction of the relative middle position of each would still be hugely helpful for visualizing the layout of the planet for each. Isolated snapshots, such as the S America-Antarctica connection, are nice, but an overview? Name your own value to seeing on a globe where the various nations of the world are located, vs only piecing them together from local maps. That was literally the reality for large-scale map making for almost all human history, and to the modern eye, the maps they created were absurdly bad. It was such a massive challenge that it took us millennia to get past it, and even then, almost all the improvements were concentrated into mere centuries. We're only a few generations away from a time when aircraft photography was the best H Sap could muster, and now you can view the Earth from orbit in real time from the convenience of your phone. Sorry, got a little carried away, but I think it was worth digging into a bit. How can you play Risk if you have no idea about any game piece's actual size, or you know that, but even though the borders matter, you can't see any of them?

But as I grew older and learned more about dinosaurs, prehistoric life and evolutionary biology, now I can say my love for dinosaurs made me fall in love and learn to appreciate modern day animals as well!

    • Honestly, the movie is not that bad, except for Velociraptor's name change and Dilophosaurus, most of the dinosaurs were correctly represented, for a fiction with no education purpose ^^ I'd argue Jurassic Park did more good than harm to paleontology, yes it created some false ideas about dinosaurs, but it also forced everyone to accept the Dinosaur renaissance movement, without Jurassic Park, quick and agile dinosaurs would've stayed a nerd thing for decades. And it probably created more paleontologists careers than all the museums in the world combined XD

And later, Timmy explicitly says that Grant is partisan of the theory that dinosaurs get extinct by "changing into birds", a tad oversimplified, but the idea is there ^^ And that's just what I remember, I don't know the movie by heart XD

  • I would love to see more on Ceratosauridae, my two favorite Dinosaurs are Ceratosaurus and Allosaurus, so I would never complain about hearing more. My favorite fact about Ceratosaurus is the design of its teeth, with the stubby lower teeth, and the huge slicing upper teeth. That to me is just such a cool design trait. With Allosaurus I just really appreciate how tough they were, with their fossils sporting healed wounds from things as nasty as Stegosauridae tail spikes and from tussles with other big dinosaurs. I also applaud your title for being the most accurate thing I've ever read!

I am so glad there is a knowledgeable person who has just as much interest as I do in them. I also really appreciate the way you say there are many possibilities without saying one as absolute fact as most do. I find things are always changing when it comes to prehistoric life and there are many theories present, along with changing theories, you are explaining them and encourage thinking without taking a bias side. Learning anatomy and technical terms from you is much more fun and easy than a lot of standard university courses. I am taking a lot of animal biology based courses in uni and your videos are helping to explain things to me that i may not completely understand in lecture. It is very refreshing and I appreciate you sharing your knowledge and making it fun!

Your passion and enthusiasm for science is incredibly inspiring, and it always brightens my day. Picking a favorite dinosaur is tough with so many fascinating options, but I'm thoroughly enjoying the journey of discovery with your guidance. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Wishing you happy holidays and looking forward to more amazing content!

  • Theropoda is the Dinosaur clade I'm most familiar with - every dinosaur I've ever personally met has been a theropod - but I admit, I didn't know _half_ of the info here. Which is great, since I love learning new dinosaur facts!

  • Homestly, the skull of Herrerasaurus looks awfully similar to a suchian, and given there were several very "theropod looking" suchians, I wonder if this animal might not fall into that ("crocodile line") archosaur group rather than the "bird line" group that dinosauria represents.

  • I've been looking forward to dinosaur all year!!! These videos make my day! Have you considered ever doing a phylogeny on the sauropoda? They contain my two favorite dinosaurs, Brachosaurus and the more contentious (in the way that it's exact relationship with other sauropod is a little messy), the isanosaurus.

  • Clint the detail in this video is fantastic, too much paleontology content online discusses cladistics as very set in stone and it's lovely to hear about the hows / whys and doubts. "just with a grain of salt" is something that is rarely said in paleo content but aknowledging that we don't know everything is honestly so exciting to me.

No one really had any very unusual favorite dinosaurs (no offense to anyone). 😁 Oh, what is your favorite maker of dinosaur/animal figures? I was trying to guess if your dino toys in the video on your desk were from Schleich.

  • It’s crazy how different the dinosaurs are in Jurassic park are the TRex and raptors are one thing but the dilophosaurus is crazy how different it didn’t have a frill didn’t spit venom witch spitting venom wouldn’t make sense anyways but it also didn’t live in a tropical climate it was moderate and close to a desert witch I find pretty cool that they weren’t all just tropical like they show In Jurassic park but we’re found in all climates. Different but interesting compared to what we all saw as kids in Jurassic parks
