Cenozoic Era- Geologic & Biological Events, Including Primate Evolution | GEO GIRL

[@Smilo-the-Sabertooth]

My favorite era in the Earth’s history. Great video. 👍👍👍👍👍

[@nicholasmaude6906]

6:17- Ring of Fire: 1) the plate boundaries of the Pacific Ocean basin where a lot of seismic and volcanic activity occurs. 2) The day after eating a hot beef vindaloo when you go to the toilet😉😁🤣😈

[@JoesFirewoodVideos]

Never heard about this era GEO GIRL, better finding about it...

[@wafikiri_]

At 6:17, the different epochs of the Cenozoic are shown, with the Pleistocene epoch starting at approximately 1.8 Ma. But, at 7:46, you say that the most recent ice age was during the Pleistocene, at about 2.6 Ma, also written at 7:20. Conflicting data. What should we accept?

[@GEOGIRL]

My bad, the Pleistocene started at 2.6 Ma! The 1.8 label was a mistake, thanks for catching that ;)

[@wafikiri_]

@@GEOGIRL Not at all. Unfortunately, I'm too good at catching details. For which I tend to offend even though it's not my intention. Edit: caught a mistake in this my own comment.

[@curtisblake261]

Fun fact, the name California is generally believed to have come from the phrase Land of the Caliph. I'm not sure if I could include a link to the Wikipedia article about it. But even if I could ain't nobody got time to type a long URL

[@toughenupfluffy7294]

It is more likely from the Latin 'calcis fornax,' or lime oven, as the Spaniards who first described it considered it as hot as an oven. They used the similar Old Spanish term 'Calit Fornay' on early maps.

You should do one on the Grand canyon

[@leonardocastro1757]

hey can you tell me all the animals that lived in that time?

[@GEOGIRL]

Haha, I wish I could, unfortunately I can't because there are too many to name. The Cenozoic is still the era in which we live today, so if you think about every single species of animal on Earth today and then multiply that by however many might have lived in in the past 65 million years, it's just a huge amount. Wish I could've been more help to you, but thanks for watching and commenting anyway! :)

[@Smilo-the-Sabertooth]

Maybe I can. Let’s see. Animals of the Cenozoic Era: Saber Tooth Cat Woolly Mammoth Andrewsarchus Dire Wolf American Lion Cave Lion Short-Faced Bear Cave Bear Woolly Rhino Columbian Mammoth American Mastodon Giant Ground Sloth Shasta Ground Sloth Eremotherium Glyptodon American Cheetah North American Jaguar European Jaguar American Hyena Cave Hyena Dinofelis Homotherium Ancient Bison Prehistoric Horse Prehistoric Camel Giant Beaver Moropus Uintatherium Megacerops Machairodus Gompotherium Platybelodon Ambelodon Brontotherium Entelodon Daeodon Archaeotherium Hyaenodon Amphicyon Titanis Gastornis Basilosaurus Megalodon Deodicurus Macrachinia Thylacosmilus Toxodon Phorusrhacos Kelenken Chalicotherium Dienotherium Arsinotherium Moerotherium Megistotherium Australopithecus Steppe Mammoth Straight-Tusked Mammoth Elasmotherium Ngandong Tiger Indricotherium Embolotherium Megaloceros Eucladoceros Gigantopithecus Pleistocene Wolf Tasmanian tiger Marsupial Lion Diprotodon Procoptodon Megalania Dromornis Titanoboa Dodo Bird Argentavis Neanderthal Early Humans I surely missed a few animals but this is most of them. Feel free to add to the list.

@@Smilo-the-Sabertooth Hey nice! I like this, this is a lot of really important Cenozoic animals, but I don't know if I would say most haha there are probably billions, but still very cool list, some I didn't know, so thanks for sharing! ;)

[@Smilo-the-Sabertooth]

@@GEOGIRL Thank you. 😊 There surely are a lot more Cenozoic animals that even I probably don’t know about yet, but this is most of the more commonly known Cenozoic animals, or at least all the ones that are mentioned in all the books that I own, more or less. No problem. I’m happy to share. 😉👍

[@GEOGIRL]

@@Smilo-the-Sabertooth yes, you for sure got the more commonly known ones! Love that list! I am still going through and copying some to google to see what they are, very fun! Thanks again ;)

[@ainaojo925]

Love this video I like to learn about the Cenozoic prehistoric life and whale evolution is interesting 🤨

[@GEOGIRL]

I am glad you enjoyed the video! I have some more detailed videos coming our about the Paleogene (early Cenozoic) and Neogene (later Cenozoic) soon, and trust me I talk more about the wonderful and mysterious whales :D So if you liked this one, I am sure you will like those as well ;)

Rachel 🐈, I re-watched "Life on our Planet." It got me interested in the Cenozoic. So here I am, back to your Historical Playlist. I think it's safe to assume you're glad Eurypterids and Megalodons are extinct.

this might be a little late, but the subtitles must be generated by an early AI, it mispells a lot of words you pronounce, a bit distracting, otherwise great video, Thanks

Hi. This is random, but I think that owls are reptiles because they are birds. I looked it up online about 3 times and the articles say that they are mammals? Do you think owls are reptiles are mammals? 🦉= 🙊 or 🐍

[@GEOGIRL]

Owls are not reptiles or mammals, they are birds. Birds are not reptiles, they just evolved from reptiles (mammals evolved from reptiles as well). The articles may say that they eat small reptiles or mammals, but they belong to the bird group. What article said they were reptiles or mammals??? Can you send me a link ? haha I am curious lol Okay edit, so I see articles where they say birds are reptiles, but to my knowledge, they are not technically reptiles but are just more closely related to reptiles than mammals... but the more I look, the more it seems that it just depends on what classification scheme you use... In any case, owls are not mammals hahaha

[@l.fourthtwo6675]

@@GEOGIRL Thank you so much. That definitely sums that up. Your videos are very interesting especially in a society that's so religious. I was just thinking that it could be difficult to not classify archaeopteryx as a reptile. And yes you're right. It just depends on what classifications you use. That's brilliant. I appreciate you. You're so informative my gosh.

[@GEOGIRL]

@@l.fourthtwo6675 Oh my gosh, you are too sweet, thank you! I am so glad you enjoy my content and find it informative ;D

[@toughenupfluffy7294]

Since reptiles evolved from fish, and birds evolved from reptiles, one could also claim that owls are fish. But we modern folks call them birds, which are still dinosaurs-so owls are dinosaurs, too. It all depends where you draw the line.

[@exhumus]

@@GEOGIRL I think you're both right. In traditional Linnaean taxonomy they're distinct, in phylogenetic taxonomy / cladistics if birds are avian dinosaurs and all dinosaurs were reptiles then birds are still reptiles. Nature doesn't care about the boxes we like to draw around things.

My favorite era is earth

[@oker59]

The creationists would raise their hands over the new world monkeys. They'll say "how can monkey's surf from Africa to South America?"

[@nicholasmaude6906]

11:09 - If Megalodons were still extant, Rachel, they'd be eating Jaws for dinner😉😁😈.

[@Dman9fp]

Just here for saying the obligatory "How dare you be glad megalodon is extinct. They would've been neat as heck & probably wouldn't get enough calories from eating us. Silly girl :P. -Sincerely, a fossil hunter/ shark nerd" xD
