The Mesozoic Era (That We Know Of) Age of Dinosaurs Compilation | Lindsay Nikole

The Mesozoic Era, i.e. the ~180 million-year domination of dinosaurs. I'll be introducing you to some of them, along with the many other groups of animals that lived in their shadows. The full compilation of the Age of the Dinosaurs is here! Enjoy!
Massive shoutout to all of my friends who came on for this series!:
‪@PaleoAnalysis‬ for Triassic Period
‪@TheDinoFax‬ for Juriassic Period
‪@eons‬ for Cretaceous Period
A huge thanks to Gian for the fantastic editing!

Have I watched all these videos individually? Yes. Am I still going to watch every second of this almost 3-hour-long video? Yes.

[@M.M.83-U]

That's the only correct stance.

[@cjfthistle]

Thank god you posted this. I was confused thinking this was a new video - that I’d somehow heard before 😅

Ohhhh i waa wondering lmao cos i was like, havent i seen this before?? Yes. Yes i have.

[@PanzerLemming]

I love watching these videos drop and then rewatching the comp. it's like watching the LOTR trilogy a week at a time and then going on the extended cut marathon a week later to see what you missed.

[@LindsayNikole]

hell yea i love to hear that :)

[@PanzerLemming]

@@LindsayNikole HELL YEAH! I wish that I had the shekels to support you more. You're my favorite zoologist aside from my highschool biology teacher (we all have one of those). Keep pulling out bangers!

[@haleyspence]

It makes my lil audhd brain happy with my headphones on doin chores listening to her talk about Dinos--if this hadn't popped up on my notifications I'd be doing a lotr rewatch today xD EXTENDED EDITION SUPREMACY

[@PanzerLemming]

@@haleyspence I love it especially when she says RATS; or in general, when she emphasizes names and phrases. although, I personally like hearing about the other life happening aside from the dinos, it makes the "lore" more fleshed out.

[@briandoe5746]

​@@LindsayNikoleso maybe I missed it because I listened to these while I'm waking up and getting ready for work, but it appears that you missed the asteroid impact in the Antarctic. There's a lot of speculation that it caused most of the initial catastrophe issues, including potentially breaking up the supercontinent itself

[@ShortestFunniestStoriesG-uw8df]

Holy cow Lindsay only has one era left which is bad because not much more show but also it’s good because we have so much Lindsay to watch now!

yooo I just realised there's apparently a DINOSAUR DND?!?!? thank u for that love that for me cos it combines two of my many adhd hyperfixations (dnd and biological evolution and such) 😂❤

[@geoduckgeoscience4300]

@TheDinoFax Loved your segment, though as a palaeoartist it was depressingly conspicuous how you made sure to credit every artist whose work you featured (thank you), while Lindsay didn't credit a single one.

[@flightlesslord2688]

In my area, we have a bunch of turkey vultures. When they get wet, they perch on the houses with their wings spread to dry out and they look like awesome gargoyles

[@PieRatKings]

We have many incredible turkey vultures too, I haven't seen them do this but I can picture it. Hope I see such a sight some day

[@MuriKakari]

@@PieRatKings They love the house right outside my dentist's office. It's a New England style house, super pointy roof, with no trees for about an acre around it. There's a cluster of woods nearby, where the vultures actually live, but none of those trees shade this house's yard. I think that makes it ideal for their purposes.

[@ShootingStarNeo]

Modern dinosaurs!! Amazing, arent they?

Heraltic Pose!!!

[@hinkleberrygaming2396]

I’m very high right now, and I feel the need to tell you that you are my favorite content creator and Biologist. I fall asleep to your videos as often as I used to fall asleep to Jurassic Park as a kid ( every night until I was 25 😆 )

I love these walkthroughs of each pre/post extinction period. It's so interesting to see what things have changed

[@Timtam99]

Bro I just got to scan a fkn thylacoeleo cranium, jaw and teeth!!! Then I got to lead the reverse engineering project to SLS and DMP 3d print them super accurately for mechanical testing so they could use it for a documentary. As soon as I saw the jobcard I instantly thought of you!

[@Timtam99]

​@@Wanhope2yeah me too! But it's property of the client. I really wanted to pinch a copy to print at home but I'd get into heaps of trouble. Since then I also got to do the same with a Meiolania shell!! This is the last thing I expected to be doing as a Manufacturing Engineer and Metrologist but I'm fully geeking out!

Just discovered this channel. The tone is so solid, I usually don’t fw biology but the narration is so solid. One of the best videos I’ve watched in a while on yt

[@lazykbys]

1:20:15 You have no idea how pleased I am to hear someone say "thagomizer" in an educational context.

I love your presentation style and content. I learn stuff and laugh as well. Best KZbin channel… that we know of. 😂

[@samagog]

I really appreciate your talking about your silly eff up with the recording. So many of us have insecurities about effing up…but, effing up is okay. Part of the process of practicing. Accepting (and, even laughing at) our mistakes is a path that allows real growth. Again, thank you for every time you do that! I think it’s helpful and healthful to all us…

1:25:43 dinofax is great (edit: I freaking LOVE their channel), one critique: if you’re going to wear a theropod mask and film your whole body, you gotta sell it with the classic theropod arms. You can’t just stand there with long human arms and not give us one single 💪🏼💪🏼

[@jongkittae]

hi lindsay i love you(r content) thank you for existing 😂❤ fr tho you're so genuinely entertaining and I'm never bored learning when you're teaching, which as a person with adhd, unfortunately tends to happen a lot as my mind is prone to wandering, but I love these long compilations because well also as someone with adhd I need constant background noise so I'm not forced to create my own 😅 but I love being able to learn cool things while doing the stuff I need to do it's perfect for that so thanks ❤

Lindsay, you are absolutely incredible! I'm an art student but sharks and marine stuff is just a hyperfixation I have and I listen to anything and everything. That's how I was pulled into your channel and I just want to let you know you're goddamn amazing and you help me focus on my work, which I have a lot of trouble doing ❤❤❤

[@kimf1993]

@ wild parrots like gang-gangs, sulphur crested cockatoos, galahs. Some water birds like black swans, pelicans, and a bunch of water foul. There are also nectar birds here the size of pidgins that hop around drinking from flowers. Sooo cool

This gal is great. Her delivery timing (or producer) is spot on.

[@chrisappleton55]

Incredibly intelligent and able to convey knowledge in a fun and captivating way. This is what our education systems are sorely lacking. More of this and less of "Open your text books to page 42" or just madly copying shit off a blackboard. I've always said "IF YOU FOUND SCIENCE AND HISTORY BORING, YOU HAD THE WRONG TEACHERS." Absolutely completely enjoyed this, I'm sharing this like Oprah on crack ("you get a link, and you get a link"). The world needs to know you 🤜🤛

Hey Lindsay, thanks so much for the wonderful content! It truly does enrich my life in a way I can’t put into words, so just thank you. Also, in case you aren’t already, I think there’s a chance you might like to be aware of the heavy metal band called The Ocean. For a quick idea of what they’re like, maybe try their song called “Ordovicium: The Glaciation of Gondwana” on the album Phanerozoic I: Palaeozoic. Hope you dig it! Thanks again, please keep it up!❤

My Mother in South Central Kentucky, would put Dozen(S) of Hummingbird feeders out every spring and would literally have Hundreds of Hummingbirds, specially when Migrating. They are Incredible Creatures, being that Small & yet No Natural Predators, occasionally a Cat would get one at a feeder but otherwise Nothing could catch them, fact I have personally seen them attacking larger Birds like Crows and Hawks. The first time people see a Hummingbird up close they usually can't believe they're Birds and Not Insects.

[@mathdesm9306]

We have a ruby throathed HB nesting in the big fir outside, she won't tolerate any other female at the feeder, she will accept the males if they are quick about it but they are all about territory. She will come right to your face if you mess around too much.

I saw the cutest birb in existence today. It's my pet cockatiel. I see him every single day. No matter how many times I see him, my brain goes: "here, have some serotonin". He's sleeping on my leg right now, so I am forbidden from moving, so thanks for the video!
