CONGRATS ON THE KID!!! Name it Microraptor, it's perfect. It's unisex, you can nickname it "raptor" and if you want to give it's ego a punch sometimes nickname it "micro", they'll never get their name confused with someone else.
Congrats on the continuation of your species! Also, just wanted to say that you are the GOAT at connecting different articles together in a flowing narrative. It really makes it easy to follow these long reviews and I really appreciate it!
My summer was really busy so I thought I was behind on these videos, and was coming back to fill in what I missed. Do take care of yourself and your baby and know that these are some of my favorite videos
Glad to have Paleontology in Review back these are my favorite paleo related videos on RU-vid and congratulations on the new kid. Also don't worry about the delays it's great to have someone like you with so much knowledge be making videos like this at all.
Thanks for your patience, hopefully cranking the scripts out between sleeping, the delay has at least made it a bit easier to get started on that grind.
Congrats on do your part in fighting extinction. Thank you for another month in review video. I learned a lot of things in this video but most interesting was learning that Daddy Long Legs are not spiders at all.
When you were talking about Holotypes it set me to wondering. Is there a database clearinghouse for fossils? One that list stored locations, histories and may even have imagery in the database. With tens of thousands of fossils bits to full skeletons, I see it as a massively useful tool for scientific comparisons.
Concerning the large Dino nesting paper, since crocodilian eggs were found interspersed among Allosaurs ones, does it suggest that the Allosaurs might have a cuckoo nesting strategy? They lay their eggs near the crocs and let the crocs take care of guarding them. They might have had differing maturing rates. So croc eggs may hatch first leave the nest to the water. While, Allosaur eggs if larger might hatch later without coming into contact with Croc mother, then dash to the forest.
Congratulations on a new lil' synapsid of your own! Edit: are you the guy who always throws dinosaurs into the campaign? Or do you want to keep work and private life separate?🤭
Is anyone ever done a study on the oxygen production of stramatolites to figure out how long it would have taken for the earth to become oxygenated now this is before the Iron oxide iron oxide is developed so this would be the first initial oxygenation of the earth to 100% of what we find today and then after that I know the rust would have been formed alongside the oxygenation event but I'm just wondering what is the minimum amount of time it would have taken for all that oxygen to just be at normal percentages of today's levels. and has anybody ever done studies on that like taking a real stream out of lights and closed them fed them CO2 and sunlight and nutrients and seeing how much oxygen is produced? They would be an interesting study
