How Ocean Currents Turned Whales into the Largest Animals that have Existed
Ocean currents are a fundamental part of how oceanic ecosystems function differently to land ones and understanding them is important to understand so may different marine animals that live throughout the ocean. This video explains some research that may have proven that a small change in ocean currents has completely changed large marine mammals.

Sperm Whales Dive 1000s of meters below the surface in search of food, entering into a completely alien enviroment, such a strange place for a mammal of all creatures to be and it isn't just sperm whales. There are at least a dozen species of whales that have adapted to dive into the abyss for their food and these whales aren't closely related and have evolved to be deep sea divers on separate ...

Polar bears are so famous that we sometimes forget that they are actually incredibly unusual animals. From the amount of time they evolve in to the way they live, there is very little about polar bears that could be considered as normal.

It's hard to imagine an ecosystem without a major predator but like any other ecological niche there would have to have been a period without one until an animal evolved to fill the gap.

Sharks have had a place in the ecosystems of the ocean for over 400 million years, being present in the sea long before dinosaurs existed, before trees existed, and sharks are in fact roughly as old as terrestrial plants.

How do they not get the Benz? Shouldn't the air in there blood expand on the way back up?
Its onlg a matter of time before someone decides to go and fish for antarctic krill now.
WHERE IS THE INTRO
Very diverse group. Interesting that cheek and chin tusk pair, as specialist teeth, don't really happen in primates. I'm thinking as for extinction, a number of possibilities, first, that despite diverse types, numbers may not have been so high in first place, and that mammoths simply outpopulated other species. Another is that indeed mammoths using their longer tusks, like the carnivorous baby stealing toucan bird using its massive beak as a longer distance weapon, can even fend off birds of prey like eagles. Comparatively speaking, the Yucatan macaw bird with a smaller beak but similar body size, is just less fierce and easier predated. Though macaw beak is plenty strong to crack nuts. Side note, the long Toucan beak apparently also outcompetes other birds in thermoregulation. ruclips.net/video/iYLSiT-Nefs/видео.html
I love your videos so much I can’t put it into words. Thank you for allowing us to soak up all this information
krill is trans confirmed
I miss it the old sploosh and chirp in the opening.
We should start calling them ice bears
Glod video.
Good video.
Love you Moth Light and itching for a video about crocodile hearts!
NGL their lifestyle disturbs me greatly!
Before the whales: how the most efficient breathing system, continuous growth and 1000+ ppm of CO² in the air has created the largest land animals ever.
There might have been some sort of cosmic or nuclear irradiation which caused marsupialism. Some sort of bizarre hybridisation between the mammalian and the avian. Kangaroos and wallabies were possibly deer and / or rabbits but they have avian-like paws. The thylacine was canine but non-placental. the platypus is a cross between duck and beaver.
Symmetry Breaker is my new band name.
I didn't know squid were that common
Stegotetrabelodon used its tusks to stab enemys like machairodus or hyenas to make sure to take care of itself but actually its like a normal elephant but rhen you realize it has a tusks in its chad also once ago in UK a tourists came across travelling savannah until caught the brown rhino with the longest horn that was sharp it had alot females its because the other males was afraid of it until the rhino has died from an disease or of something it may be an 1977 year
Who is the narrator, seriously relaxing voice.
Hello, you are my favorite RUclips channel, big fan. My partner and I find your voice extremely soothing, and we often fall asleep to your videos and they autoplay until we wake up. This is likely very lucrative for you, as sleeping viewers are the most profitable lol. If you see an extremely high view count from Charlotte, North Carolina, that's probably 100% me. idk if you saw this RUclips exploit. ruclips.net/video/8iOjeb5DTZI/видео.htmlsi=54KmeOgG4TO3aBDF RUclips has an auto-playlist of all your videos, but sometimes the order is weird. I was wondering if you could make more playlists, maybe one of all the videos, maybe some like mammal, whale, fish evolution respectively. Also, to make more money you could consider longer form videos, and not necessarily new content (although I'd love that as well), but instead of playlists maybe stitching a bunch of already made, related videos together. Thanks for all your hard work.
Well done video and informative. Good job.
what about navy seals
This video needs a better voice.
I'm pretty sure interpol FBI can see this too. Do dont just be so fast to sellout another party. It too a long time for Philip and Elizabeth to to see all this come to pass, they would want the best yield for all parties. I hear they have that older gentleman life in prison as opposed Well I'm pretty sure you lot are making sense of my thoughts how do they actually show up ones and zeroes or equations like on Sultans computer?
I don't know if I've ever subscribed to a channel after only one video before this one. It's like your content was generated by a super clever A.I. that's tailored to my exact tastes in youtube content.
Could you devote an episode to the wildlife of pre-polar Antarctica and their subsequent extinction due to extreme cold?
I hope you could do a video on the enantiornithine birds I’m curious to know how these opposite birds diversify and how they were first described.
They like to pose on top of giant mints.
And now they're delivering letters and parcels in the wizarding world 😅
If Gorgonopsids were cold blooded, then no, they would very likely not have fur.
It's the undecorated dragon! XD
those are some messed up looking whales
Yea after breastfeeding 3 kids for a total of 6 years total, unfortunately my breasts are not symmetrical by any definition of that word 😅
You use the word "extreme"... WHY? It is not extreme to the animals! It is normal everyday life!
I am trying to kick my addiction to reels and other short vertical format videos and your channel is my goto when I start to lapse. I love your content. I am glad you made a new video
Nonsense there's no proof of any of this, fossil days is inconclusive. This still doesn't tell me where monkeys CAME FROM according to science. I'll you're saying is we believe this happened at such and such a time. Thats NOT science. WHERE DID MONKEYS AND APES COME FROM. HOW DID THEY EVOLVE?
Of course the Komodo Dragon originated in Australia
Babe, a new Moth Light Media video dropped!
"During the ice age" is now.
One thing worth noting is the possibility of seasonal migrations. It is entirely within the realm of the possible, maybe even the likely, that herbivorous migrated north during the summer months, when the environment would experience rapid floral growth, and then migrate south again for the summer. Predators would naturally follow them. There are some reasons to believe that ornithischia were mostly ectothermic ('Fossil biomolecules reveal an avian metabolism in the ancestral dinosaur', Jasmina Wiemann et al; amongst others), and it appears that although sauropods were endotherms, they were entirely restricted to warmer climates. For that matter, theropod metabolisms were widely variable, with for instance Tyrannosaurus rex appearing to have a lower body temperature than the Jurassic Allosaurus (the abovementioned study). While the milder climate of the late cretaceous would certainly help with penetrating the arctic region, I believe that a very good case can be made for the probability of migratory, rather than being local all year round, a behaviour that is, after all, rather common today, too, and with the modern descendants of dinosaurs being particularly famous for it at that.
Except for one problem they didn’t migrate we know this because we found nests and very young individuals in the far north and their bone histology reveals a slow down of growth during the winter heavily implying they didn’t migrate. Furthermore I know the study you are referring to and I have several problems, first virtually all polar and/or cold environments that we have evidence for all packed with Ornithischians with with more or less zero exceptions, moreover ornithischian histology suggests a very high active metabolism with rapid growth, with animals like maiasaura reaching sexual maturity at the age of four, not to mention that we know at least some of them possess feathered coats.
@@wallace2286 That's interesting. Do you have the name of these studies (the analysis of bones and nests of polar dinosaurs)? Some hadrosaurs are amongst the few ornithischia where bone growth patterns suggests an endothermic metabolism, so Maiasaurus pushing the limits isn't that shocking. Although I emphasise that bone growth patterns are hardly everything (the study in question also suggests that pterosaurs were ectotherms, and I'm, uh, sceptical about that). And we have only found evidence of scales in hadrosaurs. Ceratopsians as well, with Psittacosaurus' actually delivering an almost full skin impression that is... scales with a single section of long filaments on the tail that one would be very hard pressed to argue were feathers capable of retaining warmth. 'Feathers', and I'm using this term exceptionally loosely, were very, very far from the norm in Ornithischians.
Evolution is a myth
They lost the ability to hold a brush?
12:44 "Also as the higher sea levels also made the gap between very small" Shouldn't it here be "lower sea levels"?
How can it be known when Halszkaraptor went extinct if it's only known from one specimen, and that one can't even be dated because they don't know for sure where it came from?
i would love to raise one as a baby and walk a car sized predator at the sunday park! haha
Where do these beasts sleep?
14:50 "During the ice age" is now.
Fun fact; Foxes are older than the Gobi desert.
I was born with a heart condition that were holes in my ventricles which caused deoxygenated blood and oxygenated blood to mix. I was a very week baby. My mom said I cried like a cat or baby bird and I would just sleep all the time and couldn’t eat. I had it repaired when I was 10 months old and crawled for the first time then walked within 4 days of my surgery. Was running before I left the hospital.
