An extinct creature I’d like to see a video on is the haast eagle, the largest and most powerful eagle in history. It was one of the more unique apex predators of a large island environment, and was able to kill extremely large prey. A new study suggests that they acted like an eagle/condor hybrid, hunting like an eagle and eating like a condor. It was also relatively one of the most recent creatures humans have interacted with, going extinct only a few hundred years ago, even inspiring legends of giant man eating birds. Other then that, videos for animals like the elephant bird or andrewsarchus would be interesting.
I love it that you have done a pre historic video. I love pre historic wildlife and learning more about the elasmotherium is amazing. Thank you. I would love to hear about a species of terror bird such as Gastornis. I love your videos too. They are so knowledgeable. Keep up the great work.
Finally, nice to see prehistoric creatures getting recognition on Animal Logic. Platybelodon, an animal that looks like Goofy and Donald merged together with an elephant.
Welcome Talia excited that you've joined the Animalogic family! Love elephants & would like to learn more about their Paleo relatives. For example what did Mammoth eat during the ice age? They had to eat a lot to be as big as they were, but most plants die in snowy cold weather so did they only eat pine needles?
@@lauriepenner350 Drop Bears did unironically exist too. Check out Thylacoleo Carnifex, catlike Koala relative that had the strongest bite of any land mammal to ever live
To know what their horns really looked like I'd go with the cave art because they almost always depicted the animals of their time in a very accurate fasion. They didn't do so well depicting people, but animals were done realistically.
That's very interesting, considering there was obviously more opportunity to see other humans. Is there any generally accepted theory on why that is? (I can think of a couple of possible reasons, but that's not exactly scientific!)
Would love to see an episode on the dodo. It's my favorite extinct animal and has such an interesting yet brief recorded history, and we know so little about it despite its very recent extinction.
This was fantastic! Welcome to the team! Gotta love science educators. 😊 If we're doing extinct creatures, how about Anurognathus? Most people know about the giant or medium sized pterosaurs, but not many seem to know about these tiny little guys- and they almost always look so ridiculous in artist renderings, I'd _love_ to see Danielle's artistic recreation. The tiny frog/bat/gremlin pterosaur Anurognathus is definitely my request, please! (Kayakasaurus recently made some life-sized models that are wonderful, incase anyone wants to know what I'm talking about.)
As someone who has followed this channel since its beginning i'm so happy to see it finally talking about my favorite subject in the world! I would personally love if you did a video on how the tiny coelosaurian ancestors of the T rex evolved to become massive apex predators in the late cretaceous (and maybe why the dromeosaurs stayed relatively small) . But i will surely watch everything you have in store for us❤️
It would be fun to talk about mammoths next, namely some of their interesting features that go unnoticed, like how their trunk kinda has a cobra hood on it- possibly used so it warms their trunk tip more when rolling up
Seeing the Elasmotherium featured in The Mandalorian but renamed as a "mudhorn" just completely blew my mind. Did they really think that so many viewers would not have already known that this "alien" creature was completely ripped off from an actual real life prehistoric animal? I kept shaking my head as I was watching the episode because it left such a sour impression on me.🤦 Either way, thanks for informing others who might've watched The Mandalorian but didn't already know this.
Good first impression, that finding is fairly new too. I am loving Paleologic, I can see a great future ahead for this series. Maybe covering the Phorusrhacids next?
Excellent timing for this video! With that recent paper turning the image of this animal upside down it's important for science communication to pick up on it and spread it around fast. I would love to see a video on Moa's from New Zealand
i wonder why humans werent able to overhunt this mammoth sized rhino, like some people claim they over hunted the mammoths, it wouldve been much easier to overkill than the mammoths
I would love it, if you made an episode about Gorgonopsids and other Permian fauna. If it is Paleocene animals Wholly mammoths and saberthoth cats especially some of the less known ones beside Smilodon.
I’d love to see a video about indricotherium, or ‘near horned beast’ as they are called, because of them being a ancestor of the rhino and elasmotherium. They are the largest land mammal species ever recorded, and are even larger than giraffes. Or even platybelodon. I also am a big fan of your videos, they teach me so much about the world around me, as a fellow science and biology lover, I salute.
I'm down for this being a regular thing. Maybe once a month, one week's upload is dedicated to extinct animals. I love learning about animals, past and present, and I'd be excited to see this more often. 😁
Isn't the largest living mammal in Eurasia the Asian elephant? I'm sure there's no species of living bison can rival the size of the smallest living elephant today
Damn, both of you. I'm about 10000000x more interested in paleontology now thanks to you two, and I still have my childhood obsession with Dinosaurs and other Megafauna/flora.
Rhinos - one of the animals I love most when I got to a zoo. Also silverback gorillas and giraffes. I love that my 12 year daughter is a "dinosaur" fan too, we can have our own private conversations and talk details. I have my suspicions she may go into science in college (which sounds great to me!), paleontology or meteorology. I just found this channel, so I'll be watching and will share it with her. Thanks for all your hard work!
Hell yea!! I’m so happy to see paleo animals get the spotlight! I think some cool (and favorit) of mine animals you should talk about are Sinosauropteryx Prima, Yutyrannus Huali, a scientific look at some famous animals like Tyrannosaurus and Velociraptor, Dimetrodon, Inostranceiva, Placeoderms and weirdos like Anomalocsris and Opinaba
love to see animalogic takes on fishes, like aquarium fishes that many hobbyist owns, or game fishes like bass and swordfish, and of course the deep sea oddities.
When she said that her catchphrase sounded better on paper.... I felt that! Also, another extinct animal I would love to see you cover is dunkleosteus! Like... Armour? CHECK! Jaws? CHECK! Prehistoric? HELL YEAH BABY THIS ONE IS DEVONIAN shdgfajksbgkjfgjkadrgf
That would be an interesting video, however there has never been a fossil depicting a dinosaur with feathers. The only archeopteryx fossil which "had feathers" was proven to be a fraud with the archeologists admitting that they had added them to show what it would have looked like with them
@@triceratops2653 Alright, find a picture of a fossilized dinosaur with feathers other than the classic Archeopteryx. Or explain to me how scaled skin with no follicles was able to develop primordial feathers which aided in the reproduction/ survival of the creature. I'll wait.
ngl I thought I was clicking on a PBS Eons video sksjsksk but I was more than happy when I found out it's a new series on Animalogic. keep it up, guys :)
