This is what we want to see. I am excited for this series.

[@rl9217]

An extinct creature I’d like to see a video on is the haast eagle, the largest and most powerful eagle in history. It was one of the more unique apex predators of a large island environment, and was able to kill extremely large prey. A new study suggests that they acted like an eagle/condor hybrid, hunting like an eagle and eating like a condor. It was also relatively one of the most recent creatures humans have interacted with, going extinct only a few hundred years ago, even inspiring legends of giant man eating birds. Other then that, videos for animals like the elephant bird or andrewsarchus would be interesting.

[@tobiasgund8048]

Ooh, that would be interesting. I would also love the Macrauchenia from South America, it's so weird

[@trempire7514]

Welcome Talia excited that you've joined the Animalogic family! Love elephants & would like to learn more about their Paleo relatives. For example what did Mammoth eat during the ice age? They had to eat a lot to be as big as they were, but most plants die in snowy cold weather so did they only eat pine needles?

[@JohnDrummondPhoto]

How about the two so-called American cheetahs next? Predators so fast, pronghorns evolved ridiculous speed they no longer need.

[@jamesruddy9264]

To know what their horns really looked like I'd go with the cave art because they almost always depicted the animals of their time in a very accurate fasion. They didn't do so well depicting people, but animals were done realistically.

[@chrislewis7811]

That's very interesting, considering there was obviously more opportunity to see other humans. Is there any generally accepted theory on why that is? (I can think of a couple of possible reasons, but that's not exactly scientific!)

[@dorabrooks76]

This was fantastic! Welcome to the team! Gotta love science educators. 😊 If we're doing extinct creatures, how about Anurognathus? Most people know about the giant or medium sized pterosaurs, but not many seem to know about these tiny little guys- and they almost always look so ridiculous in artist renderings, I'd _love_ to see Danielle's artistic recreation. The tiny frog/bat/gremlin pterosaur Anurognathus is definitely my request, please! (Kayakasaurus recently made some life-sized models that are wonderful, incase anyone wants to know what I'm talking about.)

Stellar's Sea Cow! Giant relative of manatees that went extinct ~250 years ago, were probably widespread along the Northern Pacific, among kelp forest canopies and intermingling with sea otters and seals and were part of a cold-water ecosystem that is no longer the same without them. Early humans would have found them to be very easy prey.

[@CoreyStudios2000]

The small horns could just be a sign of sexual dimorphism, especially since the large horns would be found only in males and females would have smaller ones. Anyways, let’s clone it.

[@biglil771]

I think it'd be cool if you guys did a video on prehistoric lions subspecies. Would be great if you guys could talk about the Natodomeri lion too. It's a relatively obscure specimen of giant lion found in Kenyan rocks dating around 200,000 years ago.

[@21LAZgoo]

that was the biggest species of cave lion that ever lived

[@lohfert86]

As someone who has followed this channel since its beginning i'm so happy to see it finally talking about my favorite subject in the world! I would personally love if you did a video on how the tiny coelosaurian ancestors of the T rex evolved to become massive apex predators in the late cretaceous (and maybe why the dromeosaurs stayed relatively small) . But i will surely watch everything you have in store for us❤️

[@jjhggdcqz]

One Tyrannosaur I would like to see covered is Nanuqsaurus.

[@rsuriyop]

Seeing the Elasmotherium featured in The Mandalorian but renamed as a "mudhorn" just completely blew my mind. Did they really think that so many viewers would not have already known that this "alien" creature was completely ripped off from an actual real life prehistoric animal? I kept shaking my head as I was watching the episode because it left such a sour impression on me.🤦 Either way, thanks for informing others who might've watched The Mandalorian but didn't already know this.

I’d love to see a video about indricotherium, or ‘near horned beast’ as they are called, because of them being a ancestor of the rhino and elasmotherium. They are the largest land mammal species ever recorded, and are even larger than giraffes. Or even platybelodon. I also am a big fan of your videos, they teach me so much about the world around me, as a fellow science and biology lover, I salute.

[@demetrialowther727]

If Animalogic has evolved a Paleologic branch, I'd love to see Thylacoleo featured (Thylacolea carnifex to be precise, but the overall genera would do too). One of my favourite mammalian megafauna: overlooked, bizarre, honestly pretty terrifying, convergent evolution in a wildly strange form and at the same time, 10/10 real-life drop bear. Basically what happens when you try to evolve a massive leopard-bear creature out of a Koala/Wombat and add in one of the most frightful bight forces in mammalian history. Also I like that Paleologic opens up with Elasmotherium rather than the straight-up most 'cliche' mammalian megafauna (though that by no means should be interpreted as don't touch mammoths, saber tooth cats, etc.), but I feel they're a little more on the obscure and an incredible animal worthy of an opening title into a new sub-series. And also, I love that there's still the classic Animalogic illustration rendition, bringing the beast to life as though it were still among today's survivors in the original series. Very keen to see where this goes.

[@TsulaAngenati2292]

It would be fun to talk about mammoths next, namely some of their interesting features that go unnoticed, like how their trunk kinda has a cobra hood on it- possibly used so it warms their trunk tip more when rolling up

[@dwightehowell8179]

The researchers who theorized that the horn was a bump are ignoramuses that didn't do their homework. Almost intact animals have been extracted from permafrost. The horn was huge but looked more like a war club than a sharp weapon. It may have been used to sweep snow aside to allow the animal to feed but it would have still been a bleep of a weapon. Okay I checked Google images but they aren't showing an image of the real thing. I have seen one photo of the real thing. Not sure why their A.I. was to lack witted to pick up a photo of the real thing and go with art work but they did. In fact they didn't even show a skeleton. Odd.
