Amphicyon: The Ambiguous Bear Dog

[@UdinJibral]

I really like how actual high-quality paleontology video is replacing the "tOP 10 dInOSAurS ThAt cAn BeAt T-rEx" Ahh video

[@beastmaster0934]

One of my favorite prehistoric beasties. A beast combining different aspects and strengths of bears, cats, dogs, and hyenas.

[@GrimBorz300]

"So are you a bear? Dog? Or a cat?" Amphicyon: "Yes"

[@bkjeong4302]

The ironic thing about Amphicyon and amphicyonids in general is that they’re usually wrongly depicted as having outcompeted and wiped out “inferior” predators, but also often wrongly depicted as having been outcompeted and wiped out by “superior” predators.

We need a far cry primal 2 to show us more prehistoric mammals

"...A-minor!!!", those lyrics are still in my head.

[@mikem201]

There are a bunch of these fossils in a federal site in the western Nebraska panhandle. These things are BIG! Think grizzly bear in size.

[@yabber-dabber-doo]

What the dawg doin?

[@herbertgearing1702]

I am mostly curious about how this creature interacted with man-bear-pig. Were they the goodest of boys?

[@theblazingredcomet1954]

This thing has so many goddamn species wth. Took me a little bit to get to this one but im glad i did.

[@univerex-8061]

Great video!! :)

[@Garnondorf]

Great cutting and good length of your video. Keep up the good work ;)

[@Epoch_Now]

Thank you! 🙏

[@gattycroc8073]

I always thought the predators of the early Cenozoic ecosystems were extremely underutilized in media. do you agree.

[@Epoch_Now]

Indeed!

[@gattycroc8073]

@@Epoch_Now Smilodon is cool in all but there are so many fascinating groups mammalian carnivores throughout time. not to mention the predatory creatures of the Cenozoic that were not mammals. I always thought of an animated film that takes place during the Cenozoic like the Ice Age movies but would feature another predator beside the ever so popular sabretooth like how Disney's Dinosaur used a Carnotaurus instead of a T rex.

[@NoelBoom]

Any chance in the future you do one for the allo

[@Epoch_Now]

That’s the plan!

[@AndrewDavis-sj6mb]

That Creature has a fierce appetite even challenge the loathsome of BEASTS

You should do Megistotherium, it is probably the least talk about hyeandon on KZbin.
