The Last King Before The T. Rex

We all love and know the T. rex, but have you ever asked yourself, where did it come from, and what ruled before it? Well.. here's the answer.

Extinct zoo dropping bangers as always

[@MaskedBlader-sf5re]

nature is really fascinating and trex still cracks me up like what do you mean this is an oversized chicken

[@DeyusCrosa]

With a bone crushing bite

[@jim.franklin]

Tyrannosaurus did not just simply appear in the fossil record, it had to evolve from a previous "cousin", thus, in a specific environment there is no reason to simply dismiss the idea that T-Rex evolved from a Daspletosaurus sub-species - a much ignored species of an animal you would not want to personally meet (dark alley or not)

[@dilobaryiguano]

I agree and disagree with you, mostly because I'm not entirely sure how life came to be (whether it was divine creation or random evolution). My main theories are that either God created basal dinosaurs, and they evolved from there, or God created all things at once. I'm not trying to argue, if I came off that way. But for sure, you wouldn't wanna see a Daspletosaurus!

[@TheDuckPerhaps]

God of the gaps detected, opinion rejected 🗣️🗣️🗣️

[@jim.franklin]

@dilobaryiguano Its not either or, either you believe in creation and God, or you believe in science and nature - despite what some claim, they are mutually exclusive. Humans are constantly looking for 'Why', nature keeps answering 'because I can', but we refuse to hear, so we invented Gods to explain nature, which, despite the panoply of evidence that God explanations for natural events (volcanoes, Earthquakes, Stars etc etc) have been dismissed by ample evidence, the majority still like to believe - we are a sad species.

[@salleedstrom9157]

Daspletosaurus: You're just a cheap F***ing Knock-off. Tyrannosaurus: Oh no no no. I'm the upgrade!

[@justk9076]

How dare KZbin hide this from me for 28 seconds?

[@kingshark9057]

Try 15 minutes

[@Yamaha38XCRacer]

Try 25 minutes!!!!!!

[@Scotts_Aviation]

16 minutes :(

[@deanvandenhurck2405]

Try 27

[@masterkoshiro3895]

try 30 minutes

[@VeronicaCawelti]

Oh, man! This was a good one! You out did yourself with this one. Definitely sharing it around.👍👍👍

[@nightlight8179]

It’s hard to believe that these things were real animals. You get desensitized to dinosaurs throughout your life, but imagine being hunted by one of these things 💀

[@humanity-m5l]

Daspletosaurus>T rex Daspletosaurus is so underrated man, he barely gets any recognition, Daspleto is just better than most dinos, Im glad you made a video on him

[@paulaseidl2108]

das?

[@TyrannosaurusRex1997]

I think Rex is superior but Daspletosaurus is cool

[@AKayani559]

Path of titans says otherwise

[@TyrannosaurusRex1997]

@AKayani559 I play that game lol

[@Knight18-k4]

How is it better than most dinos?

[@felonious_c]

I mean, if you get dethroned by the T-Rex, you still really didn't do too bad in life!

[@yusufg6998]

Well Tarbosaurus is the second biggest and Albertosaurus lived in North America and was bigger too

[@23Trippy]

Another lovely and educational video. You are becoming my favorite channel.

[@guitarhero661]

hands down a god tier youtube channel

[@4zhui]

just in time for bedtime

[@liamjohnston2000]

I remember learning about the Daspletosaurs at the Canadian Museum of Nature when I was younger. The picture at 1:05 shows the skeleton at the entrance of the Fossil Gallery

[@ImNotEat]

I was waiting for this!!🥹🥹

[@TheOreoKitty11]

KZbin hid this from me for 18 minutes. Im not mad im disappointed.

[@sillyZ_zed]

This is peak content for me I love dinosaurs

[@dantesstarfall]

i had just watched one of your other videos when this came out! perfect timing

[@ollie12027]

i want this guy to be my science teacher

[@indianplaying6022]

Your one my favourite dinosaur channel. Your great my guy

[@vividsky1669]

4:50 the skull labeled as D. torosus her is actually Tyrannosaurus rex specimen MOR 008, also known as "custer"

[@ilkoderez601]

Such a great channel.

[@Knight18-k4]

Daspletosaurus needs to be in the Jurassic world movies, it should get the recognition it deserves.

[@sebastianleung2897]

the problem is that they have to make it look very different from a normal daspletosaurus so that people can tell the difference between them and rexes...cuz they are literally almost identical to t rexes other than being smaller (which is almost impossible in a jurassic park setting since everything except for the dilophasaurus are oversized compared to their real life counterparts)...unless they give the daspletosaurus really long arms since they do have the longest arms out of any tyrannosauroid

[@quintin7203]

It'd be really cool if you guys could do a video on how geneses and species are assigned!

[@ExousíaTM]

God I love his weekly theories

[@fjallaxd7355]

Great video.

[@FlorianDwB]

Hoi like your channel and the species divercety My interest goes to inverts and insects in history Is it poseble to have more specifiek content over this subject. Thanks and love the work

[@unknownsoldierthegreatbudakill]

nice

[@itsahostiletakeover]

Awesome video. I'm honestly bored with Tyrannosaurus dominating not just pop culture but actual paleontological studies when there's an absolute slew of other tyrannosaurs just in North America alone that would hypothetically terrify you just as much to see coming your way as Tyrannosaurus. As you alluded to, I'd personally like to see more studies on Daspletosaurus and Gorgosaurus coexisting in the exact same time and place in the Oldman/Dinosaur Park Formation. We all assume niche partitioning but surely they were direct competitors at times as well. 🤔

[@TigerChamp99]

Please add your second channel "LivingZoo" to your channels section, so it gets more attention.

[@christerprestberg3973]

Damn, did not know Daspleto could get that big, always thought of them as about half a T-Rex.

[@igorpro8462]

Just a few million years before! Hilarious!

[@lendlc]

It's always a good day when ExtinctZoo uploads

[@dansmith4077]

Awesome video thanks

[@erincastillo6143]

See this made me happy😊

[@danh9841]

The fact that we discovered a new species of Tyrannosaurus last year and I didn’t hear about it until now is frustrating.

[@sicksabre]

YES KING ‼️😭

[@THESTRAWHATSYT]

love ur vids bro!

[@wolfgangmozart1920]

Actually somewhat early to a video for once. W

[@naysmith6937]

Earliest I've ever been to a yt video!

[@naysmith6937]

Also, amazing content my guy. I binge your vids and shadows vids

[@jf8795]

Oh cool, I've never been this early to a video before 😁

[@QuantumRangerPower]

Thumbnail says The First King, title says the Last King, which is it!? 😆 Or is it both? Love your videos, I've especially enjoyed the ones about human ancestors.

[@calebsmith2362]

This video was very well done. But wasn't it Dale Russell who first described Daspletosaurus as a new genus in 1970? (Thomas Carr won't come along until much later)

[@roguetheoutlander8800]

7:00 if thats what 2.3 ton bite force does, then all giant carcharodontosaurids were bone crushers

[@kylecollier7569]

There's just not much of a necessity for them to do so, especially when hunting Sauropods taller than them and MUCH heavier than them (discounting juveniles and younger).

[@OMG_xD22]

Peak chanel fr

[@Hypnexuz]

It's just weird to be so early

[@alexgeorge501]

A king before T-Rex? Hail to the true first king!

[@anthonyd55]

All hail the Last King, the T REX

[@Usuck56]

All hail every king.

[@Exzell0123]

EXTINCT ZOO JUST POSTED RAHHHHHHHHHH 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ 🦅 🦅 🦅

[@marcob1729]

The sparsity of the fossil record makes the claim of finding a direct ancestor to another species an absolutely hilarious claim

[@YoungTeq_Reacts]

Love the videos bro was literally waiting for a new one when I seen this ❤ 🙏 appreciate you sharing this ancient knowledge

[@MrLolguy93]

Anyone else remember that Discovery dino documentary and the Little Das episode?

[@dennisebert8787]

That was my favorite one. I also liked the one with Pot.

[@MacHarrison-d8c]

Does anyone know where the pic at 0:37 comes from? I'd love to get a canvas print of that.

[@tm43977]

Daspletosaurus quite impressive one

[@TotallyRedMist217]

Daspletosaurus mentioned!!

[@din0k865]

🦖👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@CxHrxiS]

🦖

[@blamedexter]

I love you dinosaur man

[@Danny-mg1hu]

Did male T. Rexs help raise the offsprings? The reason I ask is because the last documentary video showed the male raising the kids all by himself which shocked me

[@greham]

Paleontologists seem pretty reluctant to classify any dinosaur species as the ancerstor of another one. Meanwhile, statisticians are having fun with the number of T-rexs, Daspletosaurus and other NA theropods and say that it's unlikely there's been another concurrent species that could be the T-rex ancestor: with the number of other fossiles found, we would have found fossils of this extra species already.

[@Kingbob-wowty]

🦖🦕

[@PolarBearFan24]

ive always thought it evolved into the Tyrannosaurus due to it looking pretty similar.

[@The_editor_0.1]

How dare KZbin hide this from me for 1 hour?

[@Kmoneyphilipians413]

dinos are awesome

[@Kilroy_washere]

Neat

[@Tacoclaw6]

When I was a child, I never knew this, my childhood has been ruined

[@MarshalMarrs-p2l]

I’m still waiting for the third channel dedicated to speculative evolution, cryptozoology, mythological/folkloric creatures and creatures from fiction!

[@sneakysnake363]

What if you covered the Gorgosaurus as well? Scientists seem to classify new dinos as them a lot

[@billwill7383]

Always was a fan of the bacterial bite theory. I guess it's fallen out of favor these days.

[@dedmed8139]

1:02 Massive Tyrannosaurid? Y'know what else is massive...?

[@henkpotjes8231]

Honey! Wake up! Extinctzoo video just dropped!

[@Tyranid_Hive_Mind]

I thought this was about lythronax

[@JssbHK]

first I like, then I watch

[@Slade_Wilson-ds]

For me the king of North America before trex will always be my goat acrocanthosaurous

[@ValhalQcoholic]

Does bone density mean mass of bones / volume of bones or does it mean mass of bones / volume of body?

[@tommyrjensen]

A lot of focus here on livelihood and gathering foods etc, while not a lot on quiet family life, nurturing and gently bringing up the offspring. Prolly that stuff would be only relevant for the gals, not us typical machos.

[@jiro3751]

I'd love Daspletosaurus since I watched the Lil Das's Hunt from Dinosaur Planet

[@a.s.raiyan2003-4]

Daspletosaurus is basically a Shortstack T-rex xD

[@Blobx8]

Its crazy how the Tyrannosaurus family dominated the earth.

[@fuselpeter5393]

How do they even tell that something is a different species of Tyrannosaurid? I mean, yesterday I saw a video of a 2,18m tall guy in Thailand and he certainly is very different to me or some one from Thailand, but we're still the same species. I wonder, if someone in thousands of years would find his and my fossil they would think we are the same species or different kinds of humanoids. ^^'

daspleto really? isnt that thing small like i was expecting tarbo or something

UNDER AN HOUR GANG⬇️

[@Orrin-d7y]

OMG DINO RIGED

[@Kainger420]

Hey I'm curious, when did it change from 65 to 66 million years ago? And why?

[@dinomaster-g7p4v]

extinctzoo did you get my email? :)

[@dinomaster-g7p4v]

I would be happy 😊

[@dinomaster-g7p4v]

😊

[@Sthewo-Iregan]

There was a missed opportunity to call a dinosaur chonkosaurus.

[@lincolnhodge2371]

pete the 3rd ? that is the kind of naming you do in ARK when you lose a dino . wilsoni ? prehistoric castaways .

[@davidfafford1388]

I feel like the bipedal hunter body plan doesn’t really make sense. A broken ankle would be a death sentence. I bet they were just giant walking vultures.

[@michaeldy3157]

Of course we will never find the biggest of it. 😊

[@mirthenary]

Daspletosaurus, you need a better agent. You may be menacing, but your name sure isn't.

[@Scotts_Aviation]

Hi

[@cdkw2]

fallen king

Smhhh hidden from me for a whole 6 minutes?

[@john101johnson1988]

Still wanna know if I can outrun an adult rex- speeds estimated between 10-30 mph. 10 yep, 30 nar, gonna frow some zig zags inn

[@SWITCHITUPREVIEWS]

i wanna know what a non avian dinosaur tastes like

Why don’t you get to think and make a suggestion creating another KZbin Videos Shows that’s all about the Extinct Prehistoric Amphicyons (Bear Dogs) on the next Extinct Zoo coming up next?!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍👍👍👍👍
