I believe that there are four ages of dinosaur depictions: 1. Slow, unintelligent, tail dragging, cold-blooded reptiles like you would see in retro paleoart. 2. Fast, active, deadly action movie monsters like in Jurassic World and Jurassic Fight Club. 3. Depictions that are actively trying to challenge the norm like fluffy T. rex and knuckle-walking Spinosaurus. 4. The most accurate ones at the time that behave like real animals like in Prehistoric Planet and Kingdom.

I think there could be a cool documentary called something like "what the hell is Spinosaurus?" And it follows the constant changes of Spinosaurus, from Stromer's kangaroo-spino, to the fish eating, bipedal, tail-sail spino of 2022

[@lanternflyrus8462]

*Long (Outdated) Theory Warning* It is possible that Spinosaurus could have used its paddle tail to help it chase after prey. However, my alternative theory is that the tail may have evolved to help it swim more efficiently to traverse its wetland environment without being directly intended for predation. While I believe Spinosaurus could and would swim after slower aquatic prey (mainly fish), I think it would have preferred to hunt its prey on the shoreline using the wading method used by herons, with the intent to save energy. Since spinosaurus was a massive animal that sustained itself off prey that is small relative to its body size, It would probably be best for spinosaurus to not spend too much energy actively chasing after fish. However, as I stated before, the ability to swim in an environment more efficiently than its contemporaries is still a very useful adaptation, especially for a wetland ecosystem, as spinosaurus would have access to territory, food, and travel routes without having to compete with other terrestrial dinosaurs except for other spinosaurus. A good comparison for this theory would be geese (and hippos, to an extent), as they have evolved to become good swimmers, yet they feed primarily on land; they swim mainly to avoid predators and to establish their own territory, not to eat aquatic food. In conclusion, while I am not claiming the spinosaurus pursuit predator theory is by any means inaccurate, it should be noted that, as with modern animals, not every adaptation of a dinosaur, especially predatory ones, has evolved with the primary intent of killing.

[@turkeyman100]

Honestly, I really like this theory. Might be my favorite depiction of Spino so far. I might actually start telling people this.

I would recommend checking out the newest paper by Sereno et al titled "Spinosaurus was not an aquatic dinosaur." You can find it for free online with just a google search and at the time I'm writing this comment is the most up to date version of spinosaurus we have. For a few of your points, spinosaurus was definitely NOT a fast swimmer and given its density compared to other secondarily aquatic animals, it couldn't even dive under the surface. Again I'd 100% recommend giving it a read yourself as its not boring in the slightest (if you're into this stuff, which I'm sure you are given the comment as well as video) but just a quick excerpt from the abstract in case you're curious: "That model [the flesh model they recreated for this study] shows that on land S. aegyptiacus was bipedal and in deep water was an unstable, slow-surface swimmer (

[@lanternflyrus8462]

@@eewweeppkk I have already, I just didn't get to updating my comment before you replied. Still, Even if it couldn't actually swim well (if at all,) it feeding on aquatic prey was still a useful case of niche partitioning, while I now believe that spino used it's enlarged tail along with its sail and large hand claws for display and to intimidate rivals and potential predators such as carchar, similar to how giant anteaters intimidate predators such as jaguars.

Spinosaurus is that one dinosaur that is like that high school teen who changes its fashion style every time you see him/her.

[@justusb.plorer8773]

I find it mildly annoying whenever someone says "iT's GoNnA bE oUtDaTeD iN a FeW yEaRs AnYwAy". Just... please, stop it people. The more pieces of the puzzle we collect, the better we can infer what the missing ones are like, and the less often we will have to rearrange the ones we have. We are not going to lose that which we already have. The unusual thing about Spino is that we simply found a lot of new pieces of a formerly very incomplete dinosaur in a short amount of time. I'm not saying what we have now is perfect, but any future alterations will likely be smaller details, or concern behaviour and maybe soft tissue rather than the fundamental structure of the animal.

I do have one other question about Spinosaurus. When the latest size estimate for Spinosaurus yielded a weight of around 7 tons, was that study taking into account the Spino’s relatively high bone density, which was reported in the paper you mentioned? I am curious, because if it turns out that estimate was not taking into account the Spinosaurus’ updated bone density, I wonder if that could make its true weight a little closer to that of T-Rex.

[@Deform-2024]

I know Prehistoric Planet isn't perfect, because of the inclusion of dinosaurs like Velociraptor (Which went extinct five million years prior).

[@dudotolivier6363]

Well, in reality, there a lot of chance that the genus could managed to survive to the K-T extinction too (which bwt, occured between 66 and 65 millions years. If you consider the Velociraptor case as an abberation, so the declaration that the extinction event happen precisely at 66 millions years is a true dog's shit ! Because that come from only ONE paper who don't take into account all the others numerous studies who always give 65 instead. I can accept that wasn't precisely at this date to the precise second, like one second after "66,999 millions years and 23h59:59" precisely, because that was already quite dum to say toward the public to say 65 only instead of 65, something. But 66 is too exagerated far from 65 to be serious ! A between these two point like somewhere 66, 40 or 50 or 61 millions years ago is more realistic. It's really sad that the scientists themselves Can by as the same level than a regular ape sometime). It's just we havent fond the fossil evidences yet. Also, it's possible than a close relative live in this time. And since this relative should be almost looking similar in physical appearances and behaviors, it's always possible to rename the creature we see on screen (unlike the Gorgosaurus from Walking With Dinosaurs movie de can't rename stupidly Nanuqsaurus, because these two have too many differences physical traits. In fact, resolving innacuraccies problems by only renamed them is not a thing to do. Because most of the time that create more problems than that resolved, in addition to be very lazy in many ways). In fact, they should present Velociraptor as an unknown/unidentified raptor than the genus itself. Like they do for the Troodontid de see during the fire sequence (Troodon or Stenonychosaurus ? Who know !). Like that, you have more freedom in this kind of show !

According to the newest paper "Spinosarurus was not an aquatic dinosaur" (which actually uses a paper "Evaluating the ecology of Spinosaurus: shoreline generalist or aquatic pursuit specialist?"

My take on spinosaurus is that is was mid-transtion when it went extint. If it didn't die off, I feel it would of evolved into something like the mosasaurus. It was developing its arms for a fully, or atleast semi, aquatic lifestyle, leading to the ability to both walk on all fours and on two legs. And it could hunt like a herring bird, but was starting to favor driving for prey.

[@eewweeppkk]

I think you have a bit of a misunderstanding on evolution long term. Every individual is 'mid-transition', and there is no goal for evolution. Spinosaurus isn't a step on the way to anything, its a spinosaurus. Given the date range we have for it, it was very well suited to doing what it was doing because it stayed the same for a very very long time. Change is driven completely from the environment, so its very possible it would've become more aquatic if there were pressures pushing it away from land (such as competing against carcharodontosaurs) or it possible it would've lost some of its semi-aquatic adaptations and become much more terrestrial if, for example, its environment became less and less suited for semi-aquatic life (such as the marshy environment it usually resided drying up).

12:54 T-rex: When I was a chick, I ate Mom's dinner scraps every morning to help me get large. But, now that I'm grown, I eat Triceratops, so I'm roughly the size of a barge!

Yes I agree it is a really good documentary as a whole and I used to think that what if spinosaurus did walk on four legs well and turns out I was right and then I was wrong hey it is what it is I do like both the 2014 and the new spinosaurs mostly the new spinosaurus because it’s a lot different than what it was

[@Ledinosour673]

Awesome.

14:12 why did they use an image of the Indominus rex?

[@ivanasukjadic1423]

Even if the centre of mass is near the hind legs... that still doesn't mean it's spine could have supported such a long large bulk just cantilevering without any support. It would have snapped

What's next? Jeff Corwin's Giant Monsters?
