I always liked the unique detail the mother Indricothere had of the folded ear, making her distinct from other adults in this episode and is a subtle individual distinguishing feature that feels very realistic.

Very good video. Thank you for a detailed description of animals featured in this episode, including errors and misconceptions. Walking with Beasts is such a good series, and you have managed to show us how great it really is: 3D anomations, practical efects, sounds, music, beautiful landscapes, details typical to standard TV documentaries, all deserve their Retrospective. This episode shows amazing animals, much different from today's fauna: - Entelodonts, Hyaenodonts, Chalicotherium, Anphicyon - Bear Dog, and a mighty Indricotherium. Today wy have much more documentaries depicting prehistoric wildlife, but this one still stands out as truly unique. This show reserves a rewatch!

Hyaenodon: Hey, who are the pigs? Entelodonts: You talking to us? Indricothere calf: Uh oh, he called them pigs! Entelodonts: Are you talking to us? Indricothere calf: Shouldn’t have done that! Entelodonts: Are you talking to us?! Indricothere calf: Now, he’s in for it! Entelodonts: Our closest relatives are hippos! (Entelodonts kick Hyaenodon’s butt and steal the kill)

Probably my favorite episode when I saw it as a child, along with the one about the saber-toothed cats... I have to say that the entire WWB series still holds up well, both in terms of effects (both practical and digital), and from a narrative point of view, and this episode demonstrates it particularly well with the plot of the mother and the puppy, which is a bit of a classic of nature documentaries. anyway, thanks for your work!

One detail I like (though I doubt it was intentional) is the inclusion of the theme Hog's Blood for the entelodonts. As stated, it's actually the same motif used for the Basilosaurus (a whale, and thus, a closer relative of the entelodonts than pigs are). So funny enough, the music reflects the true "Hog's Blood" (their relation to the Whippomorph clade/bloodline).

To this day I've wondered about that random Matrix freezeframe moment. I always thought the Hyaenodon was tripping in the rain (which would go with the "Everything changes in an instant" line, with the rain messing up its chase), but still just a bizarre moment to do some cool slow-mo action shot over

Honestly, it’s one of my favorite episodes paraceratherium is without a doubt one of the largest land mammals ever the walk the Earth, and probably one of the most majestic animals ever I did like the males using their necks like modern giraffes, would sauropods would also neck wrestle as well, since they have very long necks. I heard that in the documentary hyenadon did eat every part of the animal since there was a fossilized copper light and there was a bone inside, and it was a primitive horse tooth in the dung. I think the entelodonts skull is based on the North American species Archaeotherium but that’s just me though and honestly it’s my second favorite episode

At long last, Episode 3! This episode was always the hardest for me to watch regarding the Indricothere calf being chased away by his mother. Parental rejection is one of my personal deepest fears, countless times more so than Gastornis chicks being eaten alive by ants. So far I can't thank you enough for your coverage of my personal favorite Walking With series and I look forward to Ep. 4's irate Deinotherium antics.

Really liking these WWB retrospectives videos you have been making. I can tell your love for the series while also fairly criticizing it for its mistakes in a chill and non-destructive way, and your analysis even made me realize of things I didn't while watching it (and trust me, I have done it countless times). Also, you tuning the chasmatosaur's theme from WWB at 15:35 was hilarious xD

possibly my second favorite episode of the documentary,Indricoth-Ehm... Paracheratheriums have always been so iconic for me,and,just like the Basilosaurus,the coolest thing I'd ever seen as a child. Their size always (to use the vocabulary of this video) used to completely dumbfound me,plus,the fact they're giant-ass rhinos and their amazing design are two things I always particularly loved about them. Their theme is most likely my favorite from the series (apart from the opening title that it is),it's so epic and grandiose and it really helps sell that these were among the tallest and biggest mammals ever,as well as the sense of scale they were going for in depicting them; another thing that always staggered me was the fight between the males,it's so powerful and you can really feel the heaviness of the blows,such a cool clash to this day! I don't remember if I was ever afraid of the Entelodons,but I've always loved their intraspecific fight on the shore,and its amazing soundtrack. Their bully role was also so sick as well. Loved the memes as always,especially the Primeval ones! Also,I was surprised,but happy,to see Capaldi's Twelve in the mix too!

I know that you and Hodgepodge mentioned this for the Entelodonts, but I'm certain that this episode says they're distantly related to pigs and not closely related to pigs as the National Geographic Wild series Prehistoric Predators says. Which is probably why the Entelodont heads resemble those of warthogs. To be fair though, their skeletons do look pig-like and not just their heads and if anything most wild pigs somewhat convergently evolved Entelodont-like features.

6:23 uh noo?? You do realize that entelodont bodies are not designed for a semi aquatic life style right? Hippos have round berrell bodies and short stocky legs that help them maneuver through water, while entelodont bodies are short and have longer legs which are characteristics found in land based ungulates not aquatic ones.Just because they're related to hippos doesn't mean they lived in water like them.
