Every Dinosaur In 'Jurassic Park' Series Explained | WIRED

Love how he explains the science behind each dinosaur whilst not taking away the entertainment value of the Jurassic park films and how they can be factually incorrect. Especially considering the earlier films came out at a time when we didn’t know as much about dinosaurs.

[@rutiacotheyuty3045]

Also the jp films and books give a reason why they dont look like real dinosaurs, in the movies and books they say the frog dna changes how they look and the engineered them to be scarier The edits I made were grammar errors

[@archive2500]

I think he knows that would suck through the video if he would just complain everything. And without Jurassic Park, I think it I would never get the chance to study and love dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures, this is one of the best and classic movies that introduced me to the creatures.

[@2nerC9]

And we still don’t know anything about dinosaurs. I bet in 20-30 years, most of our knowledge about dinosaurs is going to be outdated

[@maple22moose44]

the films were released around the ‘dinosaur revolution’ when scientific interest in them started to rise again, this meant there was lots of new and likely, but not confirmed, facts about them, like feathers so the lack of feathers is quite smart as it would have made it even more inaccurate today if they weren’t feathered

[@drewstudz7249]

He understands that even though it isn't likely there isn't evidence against it either in most cases. In cases where this doesn't apply he understands it's a movie and they may take some liberties with stuff

[@gentlestickman3680]

I really like how he uses the term "artistic freedom" instead of just saying that it's factually incorrect. Even though he knows waaay more about Dinosaur, he remains respectful to the film.

[@mikedanielespeja6128]

But the thing is though. Those changes WERE in canon intentional. It was supposed to make em more marketable to the public so that more peeps went to the park. That and their genome was incomplete, they had to fill it in something.

[@ericbrown1101]

Also he recognizes the massive impact these films have had on advancing the science and our understanding of these animals. The obsession with dinosaurs that these movies helped fuel has led to an entire new generation of scientists who grew up with the original and untold millions in grant money over the years.

[@roselamartinez4345]

I hope you can still reconnect with your passion in some way, even if not as a paleontologist. Volunteering might be a great. Museums, reptile sanctuaries, etc. There are even people with KZbin channels where they play with dino toys and have huge followings! So there is always a way if we think outside the box. I know it's hard to make time for those things and everyone's situation is different. My son has been in love with dinosaurs since 3 yrs old. I always think about how most of us don't get to follow our early dream careers. I hope that even if my son grows up and does other things for a living, he can find fulfilling ways to stay connected to what inspires him. Here's to your love of dinos!

[@O.O.O.K999]

The Pterosaurs evolved to have flight with thin bat like wings. The development of feathers in the theropod dinosaurs happened slowly and is believed to initially to have been for warmth/protection. Flight is believed to have developed almost as a by-product of having feathers in the small, tree climbing therapods, that took first to gliding. I guess the Pterosaurs didn't have the morphology to develop feathers so maybe the avian dinosaurs began to out compete them.

[@LRC92]

[@microTrash28]

In Jurassic Park canon, the velociraptors were genetically modified to achieve a larger size.

[@bubbykins4864]

But they did that as a cover-up to justify the slander on Donald Gennaro. The book: - had a separate, non-lawyer character for the cowardice (Gennaro once had a much better personality; this enraged the filmmakers, who punished him severely) - had Cearadactylus (wasn't even replaced with Pteranodon, just cut entirely) - called these things Deinonychus (the more accurate name) Jurassic World: - WHY DIDN'T THEY START SAFER!?

[@ramentop]

that was only added/implied in the first Jurassic World

[@korokseed1619]

Bubby Kins Unless I’m misremembering, I’m pretty sure the book did call them raptors, not deinonychus

[@Dell-ol6hb]

Why tho? There are already dromeosaurs that are the same size of the Jurassic park ones if not even bigger, it would be pointless to modify a much much smaller animal in order to make it bigger when it’s cousins were already that size or larger

[@angelabartolone9150]

While it's true velociraptors were no where near the size they have been depicted in these movies... there was a species that was: Utahraptor. I believe they just called them Velociraptors because the name sounded cooler.

[@Masteroftheweb]

The brontosaurus didn't even exist... it was an apatosaurus with a brachiosuarus skull attached... it was a hoax by a paleontologist who didn't want to fall behind his competition.

[@hase2703]

Dude.. it's actually an apatosaurus, brachiosaurus has their noses between their eyes, but the apatosaurus in the video has nose in front of their eyes, at the end of their face..

[@Servellion]

@@Masteroftheweb It was a camarasaurus skull. And fairly recently they decided that some of the apatosaurus skeletons they have are different enough to merit a different name so they used brontosaurus. So this dude is actually right for now.
