Extinct Animals The Ancient Egyptians Saw 

There are no more Barbary lions on earth!!!

@@daveyhouston *in the wild

As long as you said the weight in lbs. Im good. I wouldnt know the difference between 300kg and 200 kg.

Should've weighted in Big Macs for the Neanderthals

@sinnerchrono an easy rule is double the number of kilograms to get 90% of the true number. So in this case 300kg= 600lbs, but in reality it would be 660lbs.

“Phew”

Ice age 3 reference

Ice age 3 reference isnt it?

😁🤣

Now they have a population in South America thanks Pablo Escobar

Cuz they saw them right outside 😅 them guys were assuming from gossip

@@jakefrost8017😂 gotta love that

One would swear it be as if art devolved during the middle ages

Drawings of animals in the Middle Ages are fine as long as the animals lived nearby the artist. Horses, sheep, wolves, cows all were drawn very accurate lions and elephants not so much

​​@@knuxuki1013 I might not be completely right but I believe it was due to religion taking center stage throughout a big portion of the middle ages. It was only after the trust in the Catholic Church began to crumble that the art became better again. The Renaissance shifted the focus from god and religion back onto science and humans themselves. People began to thoroughly analize the human anatomy, the anatomy of animals, they experimented with angles and such. Art had literally reached a new dimension. While humans used to draw 2 dimensionally before, they had now begun to draw 3 dimensionally. Art had not only become anatomically precise again, it had become better than ever before.

There's a Goliath heron that's 5 foot 5 but not as big as the 6 foot 6 one.

I’m not Egyptian, but the Giant Heron seemed like such a unique and formidable animals it probably would have been the national animal of that country if it still existed

Big Bird still lives on Sesame Street!😂

who else misread the op as giant heroin? 😫 my brain is broken...

@@john-ic5pz😂😂

That would be great!

Is was kind of a desert and close to Egypt, so the same animals were there

I have been thinking about this ever since the recent Gilgamesh "monkey tablet" and it's description of the Cedar Forest (a jungle full of monkeys and cicadae)

Mesoamerica too

We can't. The ancient Mesopotamians killed and ate them all. The only remark they left was *burp*.

Were really cool.

@@garethjudd5840 thats true

It's also very dead.

Pretty sure many lions in the zoo are descendant of them​@@thomashenebry8269

And atlas bear

i would've done the same thing tbh

a monkey catching a slave friendly fire will not be tolerated

You gotta have something if police dogs aren't available.

People still do this. I saw a video where a shopkeeper had a dog sized monkey that was trained to catch shoplifters. He did a pretty good job, wouldn't let the thieves go until the shop keeper took his stuff back each time

@@VVabsa 'a bit like the german shepherd of egypt' was my first thought

👍

Simple as

Who cares?!

Extinct Zoo video* not Extinct Zoo

I don't believe anyone asked

I read that Egyptians didn’t bother with wheeled transport any more once they got camels.

Some never even bothered with wheels anyway. Really good video on here titled, approximately "why didn't sub Saharan Africans adopt the wheel? "

@@spjr99yup the wheel was terrible with african terrain. You are better off with a donkey

​@@spjr99Sub-Saharan Africans are not Egyptians.

Camels are facinating animals . They truly are biblical animals and im so glad that they are looked after and taken care of by the people in those regions.

Thank you.

That is so sad 😢😢😢

Don't forget the red-tailed buck-toothed proto-wallaby

Cocacola is older than aztec empire

Aztecs didn't live that long ago relatively. Incans would be better

@@rowanmelton7643 so great Idea!

Aztecs may have not lived that long ago but the old world settlers killed a ton of native species (through disease) when they arrived, there is plenty of material for a video

@@johnappleseed9546I’ve never heard of that. Which animals went extinct? I don’t know of many diseases that are transmissible in that way.

Same, I instantly got another favourite bird (although i have many favourite birds lol) 😊

Love a big assed bird has to be the comment of the day 😂 I think many will agree but not all will be wannabe ornithologists

You eat babies! You have to. To survive -Some random spearslinging Egyptian before killing the last bird

At least one of these birds survived, and he lives on Sesame Street!😂

@@randybarnett2308 omg right! 😳😂😂

Hope you get well soon!

Please let us know when the book is finished, and where we can get it. Sounds fun and original.

Can you get yourself a Talented Graphic Designer to draw the members of the tribes which you put at the end of the book?

that sounds super Hype

@@Gnomeof9they did their story very little justice, its all in the way they describe it. i want to believe this comment was more or less a statement of content, and not necessarily a summary.

@@Gnomeof9why do you have to say that?

Imagine the fear that these creatures felt of humans, before they went extinct of course.

Bringing it back to egypt is impossible due to the habitat and human populations that has changed since then, bringing the extinct animals back to a place where it’s voided of humans is very possible tho

HAVE YOU NOT WATCHED JURASSIC PARK!? 😂😂😂 HELL NO.

​@@freshguy4that's the thing everyone overlooks. They died off because their *world* died. Even without humans, the bennu crane's time was running out as the geographic Egypt it lived in was turning into the geographic Egypt of today just from shifting weather patterns. It would be more than a bit cruel I think to force something to exist in a world in which it has no place

​@@noodles5004 It's one thing to bring back animals extinct by nature, it's a different thing to bring back animals extinct by human intervention like hunting.

The Bennu heron is the least likely to be brought back because it is a completely different species while all the others are subspecies of animals that still exist.

Bro thinks this is ark

10000 bc thinkin ahh

Nephiliam were ethiopian race of blacks that really lived over there. That is who built those pyramids. Because the real egyptians were ethiopian. 50k years old is what egypt is. It takes that long to build our calendar they created. And we know the city of Kemet was a Harvard college campus. Those elephants back then were big as the wooly mammoth. No air pollution then.....no disruption in the food chain. And like he said the cows (auroch)were extremely bigger.

@@NYUArchaeologyQuit smoking weed.

@@malluk3065 do your homework. Hit the library boy. No more videogames n youtube for you. Greek historian named HERODOTUS in 450BC already told you that true history, not me. Be mad at grandpa.

Yeah, sadly, the Romans killed most of these great animals for public games.

@@MiguelPerez-zx2wgthe romans didn’t make them extinct, they mostly went extinct in the 1600s - 1800s

BE CAREFUL!!!! That king of numidia was king MASSANASSUS. He was a black ethiopian king that joined rome when he could not marry hannibals ethiopian sister. Yes hannibal was black ethiopian. The king joined Scipio africanus in 202AD at the battle of zama. He was a MOOR. Yes moors were black. Moors translated means black. They ruled Spain and were chased out through the streets. That's where the 'running of the bulls' ceremony began for this celebration getting them OUT of spain. And hey those moors began the italian race by raping those poor pale women in sicily. Rome destroyed carthage for this. Big hidden history many professors don't know. It's in the libraries already.

@@user-nl6ej3py6t So you're saying that black people are responsible for a lot of colonization too? Actually lots of people already know that fact already outside of USA

@@UhtredOfBamburgh ethiopian blacks yes. Not us black americans.lol.lol. Ethiopian blacks began the wheel, mathematics,and these letters I'm using now. In the city of KEMET to be exact. Began geometry from right there. Astronomy began right there. That's amazing. That alone is 100k years to develop that thought.

they’re not coming back lil bro

When I was a very young teenager my parents took me to a world tour and in the desert of Morocco we saw pair of Barbary Lions😂🎉 that was 45 years ago😮

Same here

It Ain that deep

Looks similiar enough.

LIONS indigenous to africa not assyria. No lions exist in Syria. The black ethiopian painted what they're seeing daily. Be careful with this history it'll hurt some feelings. It ties to moors,olmecs,andromeda,Hannibal and his father hamilcar....carthage. It also destroys islam overnight. Its why that zahi hawass the guy in egypt keeps things hush. Be careful.

@@HarvardArchaeology lions still naturally exist in india. lol at your username

Thank you.

Lest we forget, such extinctions were often at the hands of those we call indigenous, and whom some naives still think of as "noble savages". The New Zealand Maori arrived on these shores just a few centuries before European explorers but in that time managed to s0almost totally denude the Southern Alps as they burned the bush to force out the the great flightless birds which they then massacred. SomeEuropean settlers were lucky enough to see the last survivors of the giant moas and the beautiful huias, the latter killed for their decorative feathers. (Maori migrated to NZ to escape the heat of what is known in the northern hemisphere as the medieval warm period, and so arrived naked, but as the temperature cooled into the Little Ice Age clothing was adopted. it was likely the change in temperature and cold associated illness that led to falling Maori population. I imagine that was also responsible for much of the death in the Americas which coincided with and is attributed to to arrival of Europeans. Extinctions in Africa have also been largely at the hands of indigenous peoples. Sure, products such as ivory were traded to the Orient and the Occident but as with the slave trade the perpetrators were largely the local populations.

@@jeremyashford2145 oh yes, it’s often a topic that is overlooked, especially in the Humanities, where it doesn’t fit into modern discourse’s interpretation/incarnation of “ indigenousness” A quite good read I’d recommend on the topic is: Sick Societies: challenging the myth of primitive harmony by Robert B Edgerton that delves into various areas/topics/practices that a lot of anthropologist atr reluctant to widely talk about/publish/mention in their studies because of the fear of being label as a bigot. (Mind you this was written in the 1990s) This delves more into the cultral aspects, but it does cover the relationships with various socities and the ecosystems they inhabit.

I remember reading that book a while back.

Not quite, if you watch the video it will make sense

It’s funny that the more food you have the more people can exist and likewise advance resources are everything.

no. egypt is greener than it has ever been today thanks to desert reclamation and millions of kilometers of artificial canals. even during the african humid period egypt was mostly arid desert.

One day it will be "poor" humans 😢

Shout out to Benny

Hanno’s elephant was actually from a northern desert based population of African bush elephants, which used to be more populous and widespread than today. Middle Eastern Oriental parts of the Roman Empire, east of Egypt, used to have Syrian elephants (related to Indian elephants by the way, as they’re a part of the Asian elephant complex) instead.

Yes. They are mentioned, but not particularly sought after, once the Empire started traipsing through upper Canaan & Syria during the New Kingdom.

Those Egyptians were black ethiopian with 4billion there at the time right next to the Sudan. I'm SURE they seen elephants because the elephant is indigenous. Lion is too. Papyrus is too. I teach this daily sorry guys.lol.

Hmm.. Ancient Egypt did have ancestors of modern day Nubians, but the majority of Ancient Egyptians were themselves related to their descendants, the Copts.

@@SlapstickGenius23 most modern day nubians are j1 and genetically similar to sudanese arabs. while most modern egyptians just like most ancient north africans are still e1b1b

1 kg=2.2 lbs

1kg = 2.20462262lbs 1lbs = 0.45359237 kg ❤ if somebody wants to be more accurate and has need for being a litle bit closer to perfection😢

​@@alpaka7154 WHAT THE HELL IS A LBS, RAAAH!!! :insert european music:

@@DomiK-im3su i am from Europe too :) lbs plural. lb is a written abbreviation for pound, when it refers to weight. Example: The baby was born three months early at 3 lbs 5 oz.

​@@alpaka7154 Use of the metric system precludes perfection.

Thank you.

it’s very true in the past, cows did not weigh as much as they did now and did not yield as much beef

Interesting info, source?

AFAIK, bennu heron did existed, but the remains were found not in egypt

Some Egyptologists believe that Narmer's death by hippo is an allegory since hippos are symbols of evil But if it's true then that would be hilarious!

I’ve got bad news They’re all dead.

And birds

@@major2707 well birds are animals….

Koalas are in the top list

Who are “incans”? I’ve heard of Incas. 😅

@@derin111 Sorry NOT from this country
