I disagree that the price tag should be lowered. There is a lot of work that goes into collecting large specimens down to the last detail, especially with such a valuable specimen that price tag is indeed worth it. I work for a commercial paleontology company and I have(still am) involved in academia. Seeing both sides, I think too often Commercial Paleontology is seen as "bad" when literally some of the best specimens that have been recovered were due to commercial efforts. Most of the time the fossils on private land are doomed to destruction due to the private land owners not being interested or not having the knowledge/training to recover the specimens. That's where commercial paleontology has stepped in and recovered many specimens. This is due to the private land owner getting benefit for allowing these organizations to collect on private land and with more intensity. Many specimens collected by commercial companies and sold off to academic institutions usually go unnoticed but nonetheless are important to science and our understanding of ancient worlds. I can name you at least 2 specimens right now that are extremely important for the understanding of the faunal composition of the North America during the Campanian which were recovered(and I helped to recover) by a commercial company. And trust me these specimens would have been lost to time if it weren't for commercial efforts. I also witnessed some of the grim realities of academia and public land( I want to make clear however, I don't think academia is bad. It just has it's flaws). Due to laws and funding, many fossils are lost on public land. I've talk to several land owners in the northern states of USA and they have shown me pictures of some amazing dinosaur fossils but could not be collected due them being on public land. And they won't be collected because many times academic institutions don't have the funding or sometimes the desire to collect them, even when notified. So they just rot away, lost to time which is also not good. Just wanted show that commercial paleontology isn't all bad and that academia itself has it's issues on preserving significant specimens. I personally think that this auction should be handled like how my company does business: Academic institution have first claim and must offer what we ask or more If no academic institution is offering what we ask or more then we look at private collector inquiries(however we usually don't like to go there) I think that way academic institution have a much larger shot at acquiring it since they have first pick and can compete among themselves for it. AND I would also reject a bid from a private collector that is higher than what the academic institutions are offering since they get first pick. I would give private collects a shot if only and only if the academic institution are not offering what is asked at minimum( in this case the 4 million dollars).

I do want to point out that when you say "Has done the right thing in the past" around 4:30 you must remember that's what you think is right

I’ve been in the Denver museum literally yesterday to see this incredible find for my very eyes

Here's my problem with the "Nano" debate....they want to call it Nano because of its size....yet every one of the ones they claim are Nano's...are juveniles...which means it will get BIGGER..SO ITS NOT A FUCKING NANO ANYTHING!!! How are you going to name a full grown specimen the size Acrocanthasaurus(given for illustration) ...NANO!!

8:39 I feel like it should be noted that juveniles of other tyrannosaurs are known preserved fully articulated with arms MPC-D 107/7 is a great example it’s a 2-3 year old Tarbosaurus and it clearly has proportionally tiny arms like adult tyrannosaurs The arm is significantly shorter than the femur This is true of, every well-preserved Gorgosaurus and Tarbosaurus I think it’s clear that tyrannosaurs do not grow into and/or shrink into their arms

Nanotyrannus is like women EXTREMELY COMPLICATED

A video about the rules for digging between BLM land, private land and public land would not be a bad idea

J’aurait aimé pouvoir découvrir des dinosaures fossiles a leur âge

are they spear proof

I love this 💖 more kids need to be curious and educated about our world exactly like these kids were

I personally dont feel comfortable claiming that there is no nanotyrannus...the last paper got me thinking well and a friend of mine who thinks nanotyrannus is valid genus has brought up some good points like arm size or like some skull features that could completely show that its a thrannosaurid not even closely related to trex itself...the most convincing thing to me is the arm size because bloody mary hands are bigger than even a fully grown trex, no animal shrinks bodyparts as it grows, they either grow with it or simply stay same size and with the growth of the rest lf the body they create the illusion that they "shrink" but no, bloody mary hands are straight up different from adult trex

I live in LA County and I looked up a website of Natural History Museum of LA County to know if T-Rex released in theater, but it's still not there yet. So, when do you think it's going to release in it's theater when we passed 21 that it's not there than?

damn he is lucky

Guys, I hate to break it to you but it's actually Spinosaurus

I mean what I was really saying is in dinosaur like triceratops, T.rex, edmontosaurus, a nkylosaurus, and sauropod dinosaurs are they bulletproof.

Would be surprised there a new cartoon call “my life as a teenager t-Rex”? Based on this discovery?

And THIS is the reason why proper education is so important :^) good to see kids actually understanding the world around them, helping with discoveries, and learning even more about science. With a surge of conservatism and anti-intellectualism, a lot of kids from such families have no clue what fossils are, or straight up think they're fake and government propaganda. This is lovely!!

This video reminded me to ask if someone has a dinosaur bone but they aren’t sure the species it belongs to who should they contact? I have a bone that I was told was from a baby Triceratops. Personally I think based off looking a pictures of theropod skeletons that it’s either a toe, rib, finger, or tail vertebrae of a theropod but which one I don’t know. Who should I contact about what I believe is a dinosaur bone that I have?

Let’s hope that someday we will find a real actual nannotyrannus because think about it, tyrannosaurs wasn’t the only Apex predator in the hell creek, other than besides dromeosaurs of course

dinosaurs like triceratops,T. rex,edmontosaurus,ankylosaurus,and sauropod dinosaurs are they bulletproof? I ask because turtles are the sister of archosaurs but there totality different compare to dinosaurs,the only animal skin is close to dinosaurs skin is birds and crocodiles but dinosaurs skin is unique to compare any animal even the legs and even the head and the eyes some dinosaurs like ceratopsians have a protection around their eyes,even their big horns are protecting their eyes and so does ankylosaurus and also the dinosaur size helps the skin to be even thicker how do we know this because of their mummified skin which leads to so many questions.

Teen rex that’s just a lousy name because there’s lots of teen Rexes lol

Wait and see for the Goonies-like movie adaptation of this particular discovery!!

Great white sharks should have been part of this video since Jonah’s massive fish from the Torah, Bible and Koran may have been early views of the GWS

that intro music brings back so much nostalgia but i cant help but want to throw my ass in a circle too

On the other hand the industry has to somehow finance itself and oftentimes the buyers donate them to museums upon their deaths. The problem lies manly with illegal fossil smuggling from countries like Mongolia.

Watch it get bought by a billionaire

I appreciate your view on the 'just juvenile T.rex's' versus Nanotyrannus (or another taxon) debate. Some individuals are far too certain on one side or the other on this issue. When a whole more work and specimens are needed to clear up the mystery.

There is no tooth fairy There is no Easter bunny And there is NO NANNOTYRANNUS!!!!

I think the nanotyrranus Is possible he can to be a "Ghost-dino"

1:37/1:38 If only there was a way to track down and confiscate the infamous "Son of Samson" specimen.

You mean Nannotyrannus?

I wouldn't be surprised if nanotyrannus turns out to be related to a different Tyrannosaurid genus all together, probably a westren dryptosurid if i have to guess

What are your thoughts on the 2024 Nanotyrannus paper?

Another good specimen of the Tyrannosaurus rex family.

Let me guess, there's gonna be a paper that'll name it midi-tyrannus

Imagine if it ends up making nanotyrannus a valid genus again

Can you do Godzilla next 9:23

Quinkana

and May 2024 paper concludes that it was not aquatic - the battle rages on

ilove wwd

*FFS- Do You HAVE to rehash Cope/Marsh EVERY SINGLE EPISODE?!*

I still had a toy model of one of those early mammals before!

River dolphins are so cool looking

So humans are basically a high monkey

@zoomundo Vocês podem reagir ao trailer?

Nah why you changed the title the first one was better

Interesting thumbnail.....
