The Triassic was the first period of the Mesozoic Era, the Age of Reptiles. Unlike the following Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, dinosaurs were not yet the dominate animals during the Triassic Period. The purpose of this video is to provide an extensive summary of these early dinosaurs, which were quiet different from the view most people have of the dinosaurs.
It covers both the most famous dinosaurs of this time, such as Coelophysis and Plateosaurus, and much more obscure ones like Daemonosaurus and Saturnalia. It also gives an overview of their spread across Pangea, their early evolution, and of course their rise to dominance.
Thank you to the themattalorian for narrating this video and to Bethany Lester (@bethssketches) for creating the illustration depicting Triassic dinosaurs in a snowy environment.

These dinosaurs deserve just as much respect as your favorite dinosaurs. The success of these guys would determine the course of nature for the next hundreds of millions of years to come. It's because of their success that we have so many various birds today that are still thriving. The dinosaurs never died out because of them. These rose to be speedy fast thinking animals and that is how they have survived today.

The ironic thing is that dinosaurs were actually worse-suited to the frequent harsh droughts and hothouse conditions of the Late Triassic than the croc-line archosaurs, the exact opposite of what way too many people still believe as a result of WWD.

It's interesting how dinosaurs were previously depicted as almost exclusively tropical animals that would've faired poorly in the cooler climates we have today, when in reality it was their ancestral resistence to cold that ultimately allowed them to attain their ecological supremacy.

@posticusmaximus1739 Год назад

Thanks for this. Just like my fascination of the Danian period & wider Paleogene for the general obscurity of the earlier post-Kpg mammal, the Triassic is almost a parallel narrative.

@bkjeong4302 Год назад

Do note that mammals took over right at the start of the Paleogene, with large herbivores and carnivores evolving during the Early Paleocene. Big mammals were around before any of the Cenozoic’s giant flightless birds were. In this sense, the Paleogene is actually far more akin to the Early Jurassic than the Triassic.

@posticusmaximus1739 Год назад

@@bkjeong4302 Not too familiar with the early Jurassic. But early mammals in South America lived in the shadows of Crocodilians like Purusauraus and the super-snake, Titanoboa just to mention a couple of reptiles that made mammals the underdog for a moment

@chimerasuchus Год назад

While Paleocene mammals were on average larger than during the Mesozoic ancestors, they were actually pretty slow to replace the non-avian dinosaurs. Additionally, the Early Jurassic is notable for relatively large species surviving the preceding mass extinction, while mammals had to start from scratch. Even the exceptional pantodont Barylambda, perhaps the largest Paleocene mammal, is pretty small compared to later Eocene herbivores, let along the elephant sized sauropodomorphs of the Early Jurassic. On the other hand, Purusauraus lived during the Miocene, which was much later in Cenozoic. Indeed, it grew so massive so as to hunt the local mammalian megafauna. Still, the contemporaneous terror birds and sebecids, which included perhaps the largest terrestrial predator of the entire Cenozoic era, did leave the native South American mammalian predators in an underdog position.

@bkjeong4302 Год назад

@@chimerasuchus The Paleocene large mammals were still significantly larger than most of the large Paleocene nonmammals, and more importantly, they were older than most of said nonmammals (especially things like the gastornithids). The traditional narrative was that things like the planocraniids or gastornithids could only exist because there was no mammalian competition and that they were outcompeted into extinction once mammals started getting big, but the fact mammals started getting big *before* such animals existed undermines this narrative.

@christiansherlock6662 9 месяцев назад

I'm stoked out of my mind to see Silesaurs getting exposure and acceptance as early Ornithischians. As a theory, it's not only being quickly accepted by scientific communities, but also if you think about it it just makes so much sense. If they are accepted as dinosaurs, I no longer have to struggle to think of my favourite dinosaur, because it's obviously some kind of Silesaur.
