Rancher Finds T-Rex Bones That Turn Out To Be A Brand New Dinosaur Species! | Dino Hunters 

This video makes me wish I stayed on my love of dinosaurs like when I was younger, I wanted to dig up all the bones when I was a kid 😂

If T-Rex sold guns. He'd be a small arms dealer.

A number of fossils have been found across Montana, Wyoming and the Dakotas. I found what turned out to be a Mosasaur tooth (according to the Denver Natural History Museum) in my backyard! Didn't even have to dig it up.

It's great to see Peter Larson recognized for his expertise! The recent record breaking fossil sold to a private collector has me indignant on his behalf! Sue was taken from Mr Larson on the grounds he might be motivated by profit vs scientific benefit. Now I see it's perfectly fine to be motivated by bottom line. All of what he went through.....glad he's doing well!

What in the broke back mountain is he wearing on his neck?

Tyrannosaurs are one of my favorite dinosaur families. Tyrannosaurus Rex being my all-time favorite, followed by the Carcharodontosaurs and the Neovenators.

Cowboys don't typically try so hard to sound like cowboys

I loved watching the show.Thought it was so fantastic when he and his son had found a skull in a valley thet just happened to stumbled across it and were uncovering peaces and more peaces to find it was a complete skull.and then the show ended.Hope the show comes back in a near season or a new series.It a wonderful to see cowboys out ranching and then start to find such history that walked this land so many centuries ago.Hopefully the networks will pick the show up and bring back another series of finding more prehistoric fossils.To show the world that the massive creatures did walk the earth millions of years ago before they went extinct.Just their size must have been a incredible sight to behold when they walked the earth.

I live in the South. I know lots of cowboys, ranchers and farm owners. This dude is dressed so awesome I have a hard time believing he's real.

That “cowboy” looks like he’s been working up on Brokeback Mountain.

I love this show. It’s one of my favourites. Can’t wait for Season 3!

This show is incredible I wish they would make another season of this show

Wow! Pete Larson is a neighbor of ours, and it is our great joy to be able to visit his museum in Hill City.

I gotta admit...when I see that neck handkerchief/scarf thing, I can’t hear or see anything else in the video.

I'd hate to ever go against this guys knowledge of the T-Rex. Smart guy

0:03 That guy is as much a "rancher" as I am an astronaut. lol

Love the “ Dino Hunters “ show !!

My grandpa is like the definition of this the cowboy of this guy, made a living off of cattle most of his life as well. And I represent the opposite side. I took all the paleontology. I love dinosaur fossil finding more than is sane.

This was fascinating. Thank you for the upload. I am now a subscriber

Thanks for these great videos!

I'm gonna be honest, this video convinced me that nanotyrannus is a real genus

I wanna see those other scientist having fun discovering they were so wrong LoL Peter Larson, the perfect one to be able to do this!! Clayton .. keep digging!! Love it.

The eternal struggle between lumpers and splitters. This highlights some other points in paleontology and science in general. Most importantly is that science advances with more information is gathered. Also, healthy debate is beneficial is raising questions to be answered to differentiate organisms. I also like the enthusiasm of the rancher. Not only is he interested in paleontology, he had the good sense to bring in someone who knows the subject.

I really love this .it's really a great program.

This is just another juvenile Tyrannosaurus rex

Why does this “rancher” look like he’s wearing a costume?

We loved this show!!

What a find!!

Rancher says heck with Cows this is Worth some serious Coin. Cheers

Whats up with the scarf on that "cowboy". All dressed up for a broke back mountain party.

Absolutely amazing and a amazing scientist

Couldn't have happened to a better guy! Congratulations!

The moral of a story, this is how science lost an important specimen to a private collector...

I know that there are an almost unspeakable number of dinosaur species that used to exist, many of them are small alterations of one particularly species. There were dozens of different ceratopsians and raptors, so I would not be surprised if this “Nanotyranus” was a real thing at one point.

great thanks. respect from the UK Dino guys

The difference in claw size is interesting. Reminds me of those diagrams we see in textbooks showing how animals evolve from smaller to bigger creatures. About 20 years ago, I found out that such illustrations don't always represent the reality. The skull size of certain creatures was doctored because the sequence in the actual fossils was more erratic ie small skull, bigger skull, suddenly small again, smaller, then MUCH bigger, etc etc. Then we hadda test on related subject that the teacher had to revise after we saw a video exposing certain fraudulent claims regarding 'missing links' and such. There's a lot more uncertainty than many let on... Agh, 4give my tangent. None of those gripes with this video, to be sure 😎

Amazing, Find.

I just love how Hollywood thinks how a cowboy should look 😂😂

The missing link! So cool!

Simply fascinating.

Man dinosaurs are so interesting I wish we could see a live one one day but the possibility of that is very low

If that dude is a rancher then I am Liberace

Nice work 👍🔥

I love this stuff!

This is just awesome. Hell of a find.

Wheres his ranch at? Brokeback mountain?

I really want to watch this series now! Lol

It’s so fascinating and what blows my mind is how old that has been on the ground floor

We had the T-rex but this new one is the Tex-Rex.

I find it uncanny that dinosaurs look like dragons

They can't fool me! I can tell its just a big rabbit,,lmao!! Great find a love seeing the real bones intact

WOW! This is freakin' awesome!

This is awesome, just find an unknown and it's one of a kind that makes it ultra-valuable. If I did not see an actual bone sticking out, I would just be seeing dirt...

A lot of supposedly new Dinosaur Species ended up being different phases of Life, for only one. Dr. Carlson did a really good Video, on the vanishing Dinosaurs. really funny and quite accurate, in my opinion. Every one wants to name a Dinosaur.

Nobody was phased by the T-rex growling at them in the room. 😂

Nannotyranus argument has been going on for some time. I was skeptical thinking that the Lance Creek specimen was a juvenile T rex for many years. However, with Clayton Phipps' discovery of the Dueling carnisaur and Chomper, I've changed my opinion. Both specimens have long, narrow, and long manus first phalanx elements very suggestive of Albertosaur hand structure. I believe the key to these individuals is in their hand structures as well, which likely will determine Tyrannosaur species diversity T rex hands were rather stocky and small in sructure while Abertosaurus and Gorgosauarus hands were .longer and narrower than in Tyrannosaurs. It's very likely that Nannotyranus was a late Maastrichtian Albertosaur hold over genus that survived into Hell Creek times. These manus elements are extremely rare to find requiring more complete specimens to determine species identification with overwhelming confidence. Clayton Phipps work in the Hell Creek Formation has given science incredibly important specimens and he rightfully should be acknowledged. Im glad to see that Pete Larson is also becoming honored as well for his valued research in dinosaur biology and tyrannosaur specimen discovery. The "Dinosaur Hunters" series has really offered the general public a realisric view of dinosaur fossil collecting in the Hell Creek Formation. It serves to educate how important that the public be allowed access to fossil specimens on private land that academic science has been falsely labeling as detrimental to science. Fortunately, it's because of public interests in dinosaur fossils that nearly all major dinosaur specimens mounted in our major museums came from discoveries by non academics!

So he did NOT find T-Rex bones??? Jeez, what a title. There are many Tyrannosaur species but the Tyrannosaurus Rex is a specific species and he did not find that.... He found a new species.... That would be an accurate title.

He finds an $8 million dano while I can't even find my remote. 😔

The dino is great but that guy looks hilarious in his cowboy costume. 😆

That rancher looks funny with that big blanket around his neck. That blank is bigger than he is.

So is Nanotyrannous actually finally recognized as a separate species now?! I remember that the first time I heard about nanotyrannous was from the show jurassic fight club ( which granted it wasn't a very scientifically accurate show) I thought it was a neat Dinosaur but then scientists started saying that it wasn't a real Dinosaur, that it was just a miss identified young tyrannosaurus.

I remember the, "Allosaurus". If memory serves me correct, that critter predated T-Rex. They both had many similarities. Is my memory correct ?

Been crazy about dinosaurs 🦕 since I was a kid

Halloween costumes is cowboy

Im going to be a palieantoligest when I get older and I found 8 trilobites

Love this show

Very cool video

why is this not on US TV? Instead we get ancient aliens and finding bigfoot

@Discovery UK< it's T. rex, not T-Rex. The proper, scientific, way of abbreviating the genus and species names of an animal is to take the first letter of the genus, capitalize it, and put a . at the end. Then, comes the species name in all lower case.

Very interesting. 👍🏻🇬🇧

What a SCARY world it must have been in those days!! Such freaking awesome sh*t!!!

"Arms don't shrink when you grow." Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't Hoatzin birds hatch with rather gangly, clawed arms and fingers, which then fuse and re-absorb and stuff as they grow up? I'm not saying the evidence for Nanotyrannus being its own species isn't compelling, just that birds and at least some of their dino ancestors seem very variable in their morphology as they grow up.

I would point out that some reptiles and quite a bit of sea life grows for as long as they live. So it not being full though growing might not mean it is not at adulthood, unless we can suddenly describe the growth patterns in dinosaurs in detail then Id say there has always been room for debate. However I do believe this find is actually the smoking gun of Nanotyrannus.

It also fills the holes for Theropods where scientists were before just using juvenile Trex to fill in for the size gaps in Therapods 👌🏾

Got watch again...wow ...excellent dialogue

I found some dead bones of a buffalo in my backyard, gonna pass them off as as new species. Publish them in science journal. become rich ans famous. Gonna name.... Backyardsaurus.

Funny how my links stay on the senators RU-vid's

I'm just starting to get into paleontology after I found a mint-condition Allosaur tooth on my families ranch. Its so cool.

Most complete Trex fossil found wow ❤

there are so many problems with this video and the declaration of "new species" 1st. They conflate genus and species in this video to a painful degree. Tyrannosaurus is the GENUS, Rex is the SPECIES. Another SPECIES of Tyrannosaurus would be T.Imperator or possibly T.Bataar. They are arguing for a new GENUS not SPECIES, as Nanotyrannus has been postulated to be a separate genus 2nd. If they did legitimately discover a "new species" it would be named and credited. This is about paleontological drama 10+ years in the making. Nothing "new" about this 3rd. They called in one (1) singular expert for his opinion? Who VERY clearly has a bias? Even if he is right (which is unlikely) he came to this conclusion in one single visit to one single specimen in an afternoon. Id hardly call that precise. Also why only one guy? Why not at least 2 to get 2nd opinions? its almost as if... 4th. At the end of the video, it makes it obvious that this video and entire situation has been misconstrued for profit. Not only do stories like this ALWAYS get exaggerated on a daily basis in dinosaur news to generate clicks/views, but at the end the rancher (who owns the fossil) outright ADMITS that he is looking to SELL the fossil. now it makes complete sense as to why he would contact a fanboy of "nanotyrannus" to be the one and ONLY paleontologist to come out and see the specimen, so he would declare "NEW SPECIES WOW! DEBATE SOLVED!!!" as that would earn a much larger paycheck than just another Tyrannosaurus specimen. Specimens in situations EXACTLY like this are sold as false scientific breakthroughs when in reality they are average specimens, so they can be sold for higher prices all the time. China is infamous for this exact practice.

What’s with the scarf?

Amazing Discovery

Awesome . Nano Taranus .

Imagine being an ordinary Joe in the comments without a PhD or scientific degree of any kind and still attempting to talk down to and rebuke a paleontologist who’s been at this longer than they have.

How do we know if the nano skeleton and the T-rex skeletons dont actually reprsent the T-rex's different genders with either the male or female being the naturally larger representation of the species?

Unbelievable, finally!!

accountant turned rancher.. love the cosplay!

Whats up with the scarf? Dude looks ridiculous.

"Rancher Finds T-Rex Bones That Turn Out To Be A Brand New Dinosaur Species" - more clickbait nonsense - this and other purported specimens are NOT confirmed as a new species

The dude with the Stetson and the cowboy regalia looks ridiculous although he probably thinks he’s the business! 😂

Claytonian-Rex? Dope!

Don't think that guy is a real cowboy, just playing dress up

its gotta be true, when it is shown in a discovery channel series ... where else do real scientists publish their work?

My home state , very cool to see on the you tube

WHAT a kool kowboy!!!🤠

Probably just chicken bones. A huge one

The disappointing part is that it's gonna take YEARS for this specimen to be properly diagnosed and submitted for peer review.

Yes so do I awesome show

Aaahhh HAHAHHA at middle program.. look behind little shelf’s.. he growing mushrooms!!

I can't argue with the presented evidence that it's most likely not a juvenile T-Rex, but I'm not sure I like Larson's insistence that it must be Nanotyrannus when the bones aren't even fully prepared yet. I'm highly skeptical of anything claiming to be Nanotyrannus, and the more insistent someone is about something controversial like this, the more skeptical I get.
