@huldu Год назад

To be fair a white shark can be quite large as well and they're still around to this day! The same goes for orcas but they don't quite have the mouth that the white shark has or the temnodontosaurus. It sure resembles a dolphin! We shouldn't forget the blue whale which dwarfs many creatures on this planet - but of course they mostly only eat krill I believe?

It still blows my mind to contemplate the incomprehensibly large amount of time ago that these creatures lived. All of human existence could fit 100 times over into the time since these magnificent beasts lived, and modern humans 1000 times or more. And yet I still feel some sympathy for that baby icthyosaur, just minding its own business tens of millions of years ago, when this massive beast chewed it up and ended its life. I wonder if they felt fear or pain? Whenever I hear of a prehistoric creature that died with another creature in its belly, I always wonder what the predator died of.

Exactly, but with no echolocation, they relied primarily on their sight which had to make hunting harder over all. They could probably hunt on moonlit nights when nothing else could see it coming.

Why couldn't they just be honest and name them something like, "Stumbledontosaurus" or "Luckyfindasaurus" or maybe "Governmentgrantasaurus" or something like that.

@brianisme6498 3 года назад

Well ichthyosaurs aren’t dinosaurs actually. And they do the same thing with modern animals. It’s just that most people generally refer to them by their common name. And with the naming part you seem to not understand. It’s just scientific standard. Look up taxonomy and you’ll understand. Essentially when a new species is discovered they must be classified, put into a kingdom, phylum, order, class, family, genus and species. What they will then refer to them by is there genus and species name. Take the Tyrannosaurus Rex example. Most words have actual meanings. Usually coming from Greek or Latin. Tyrannosaurus means tyrant lizard and Rex means king. So, the T. Rex’s name literally means king of the tyrant lizards. Most prehistoric animals are just referred to by their genus name such as Spinosaur, ankylosuar, triceratops.

The shape of the teeth (bladed and sharply pointed) indicates a slicing function. Having reinforced roots isn't remotely the only adaptation for crushing-the teeth have to be stout all the way to the tip.

@Boogers32150 4 года назад

If crushing was the mechanism, it’s teeth would be flat. Sharp teeth in animals implies slicing. Give me an example of an animal with sharp teeth, that “crushes” it’s prey.

Döla Freundlich No I disagree many species like temnodontosaurus eurycephalus had very robust jaws, and the back of the jaw packed small robust teeth.

@Man-ds9ir 4 года назад

Döla Freundlich One of them is T. rex, the other is livyatan, and another one is an ichthyosaur called Omphalosaurus.

Was about to scroll past this but saw David Attenborough and had to click. Coming away with dinosaur knowledge I didn't plan on learning but I'm glad I did.

Wow! David Attenborough is wonderful. What a gem of a man. Incredible life this man lives.

Of course, it goes without saying that the great David Attenborough had a Temnodontosaurus as a pet when he was young.

@mr.mercury4247 4 года назад

@@stillatin well then it's really close. A good way to know which was bigger would be to weigh them, but it's not like we have any ichthyosaur eyeballs to weigh so it will most likely just remain a mystery.
