5:38 Regarding the long strut (ascending process of the astragalus), it probably prevented/lessened the rotation of the ankle bone during locomotion (Holtz, 1995), and to my knowledge all theropods had them. Basal theropods had smaller processes, while in derived clades the processes got progressively larger. It might be connected to increased cursoriality, since a larger process would be advantageous in counteracting the forces from increased locomotor stress/usage (and the more derived theropods tend to be more cursorial, according to Dr. Holtz). So the relatively larger process (compared to the more basal taxa mentioned in Marsh & Rowe 2020; it is still quite small compared to those of Tetanurea, and especially to those of coelurosaurs) is consistent with both its phylogeny and the presumed increased cursoriality. I wonder how does it compare to that of Ceratosaurus (since they too have quite small processes), if the size of the process reflects the differences in cursoriality, or the more derived nature of Ceratosaurus comes out on top.

On the question of why a dinosaur would need a neck frill in addition to a head crest: Just look at a rooster. When facing off against eachother, they spread their neck feathers; in a way not unlike the JP Dilophosaurus, in order to make themselves appear larger. Since their crest is not as visible from the front as is from the sides, having an additional forward-facing (and also retractable) display structre is quite convenient for them. I wonder why this comparison is hardly ever made, and why possible display feathers on non-avian dinosaurs are overall not a common subject of serious speculation.

​@angelicacreager6623 we don't have evidence that these dinosaurs would care for their injured, but there is evidence they may have been pack hunters. I believe there were three fossil remains found in very close proximity which could mean a pack or family group. It's possible it's mother may have tried to care for it, but eventually it perished at a relatively young age. When we know more about how dilops had their babies, we could theorize if they had few children, they might invest in raising them rather than the typical shotgun or rabbit approach common from the time.

To his credit, Chrichton merely gave dilophosaurus spitting venom in Jurassic Park the novel. It was Hollywood who decided that it needed a big flashy frill with rattles on it. Then again, in the sequel Chrichton pretended that carnotaurus could turn invisible so... artistic license can only go so far in any medium.

Not to mention that Cobras only evolved to spit venom in order to defend themselves against humans. The development of this ability coincided with the arrival of early humans into South Asia. No bipedal animal in Dilophosaurus’ environment would have had large eyes situated on the front of its head, in the way humans do, and been so much taller than it (making spitting the only option).

I don't know if this was the point you were making, but what you said at around 8:00 about the relationship between display features and gigantism got me thinking. If you already have one of those characteristics, hiding is no longer a priority, and so the drawbacks of the other characteristic become less significant. If you already have bright ornamentation, becoming easier to spot is no longer a concern when growing larger. If you are absolutely enormous, everything can already see you from a mile off, so why not evolve bright colours or display structures. The bar is already so low, that there's little you can do to make it lower. I don't know how sound that thought process is, please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but I can't help liking the idea that, in ground-dwelling, non-avian dinosaurs, as a species gets bigger it can afford to become more vibrant. It's sort of the inverse of the point you made, but still, got me thinking. Great video as always, cheers.

I was thinking that the genetic/endocrine processes which cause the species to grow might initially manifest as growths of bone mass in the head. if i wanted to make a really big leap i might be tempted to tie this in with the tumours found in the final specimen discussed; it's possible environmental pressure prioritized size increase and rapid maturity at the cost of susceptibility to tissue growths as well as bone growths (ie crests)
@Eserchie
@Eserchie 2 жыл бұрын
I suspect the two are also linked by sharing selection pressure - specifically, intra specific competition for mates or territory, and linked by the developmental processses involved - the display structures are more responsive to growth stimuli (which is why they form as the animal grows), so any increase in growth hormones has even more impact on display structures, so if selection pressure favors size increase, over generations relative crest size also increases. Similarly, any selection pressure for larger display structures finds an existing variation in growth rates / body size, and favors gigantism as a way to increase both absolute and relative crest size.

That makes sense. Evolution gets fuzzy when people explain "ideal" situations about how traits should manifest. Did it reproduce? If so, it's traits were good enough. If it reproduced more, any traits it had get passed down. We know genes often get reused, so maybe the crests grew proportionally to some other aspect of the organism's growth.

This video was great! Now I hope that we eventually get a “Revisiting Apatosaurus” video because honestly a came across an interesting interpretation on Apatosaurus where it is theorized that it had two rows of keratinous knobs or spikes running down each side of the underside of the neck and that it was actually slamming down its neck on opponents for combats. The neck of Apatosaurus (& Brontosaurus) apparently show adaptations for increased ventral motions, possible soft tissue protection, cervical ribs that were orientated downwards (to face the underside of the neck) and apparently a knob structure on said cervical ribs that resemble the base of a rhinoceros horn which is the base for the idea of the “keratinous projections”idea. I saw a PDF that showed off these projections on the cervical ribs of A. louisae but i’m not sure of A. ajax possessed them. I think its an interesting interpretation of a rather famous dinosaur and I find it kind of disheartening that its not really discussed about.

I think for the sake of the fictional Jurassic Park dilophosaurus, the brightly colored frill and noisemakers/rattles are to actually DRAW attention so it can spit venom at the eyes of its target. This obviously has nothing to do with the real species, but I think the blinding venom and random bright colors and noise are all working toward the same purpose. It also screeched when it opened the frill, so it seems to be a “look at me” behavior just putting out as much sensory input as possible to get the prey to turn and look. Given how small it was depicted in the film, I cannot imagine that trying to intentionally draw the attention of bigger and more robust creatures would ever be an adaptation that was passed on and selected for, but it was a movie. If I remember correctly in the novel it was closer to actual size and did not have the frill. The novel also specified that it was venomous saliva that it spat at things, which brings on all manner of other problems, but eh.

Fantastic video as always! Really loved the discussion of the crests and arm mobility. Also, pathology is so interesting; we have so many fossils showing incredible life stories of animals that persevered through injury and deformity for long periods of time. This is even more noteworthy considering how rare fossilization is. These animals were truly resilient!

Dilophosaurus has always been one of my favorite dinosaurs - even before jurassic park - and I love all the research finding out new things about it lately! Also, I'm glad you support the idea of feathers on it for no other reason than I really like how dilophosaur looks with feathers. Though the model itself has jurassic-park style raptor hands ( IE broken wrists ) and is very much shrink wrapped, one of my favorite looking dilophosaur models is fully and lovingly feathered and it looks AWESOME lol

Every time we play ARK, she's always telling me what's wrong with every dinosaur we come across. This series has been absolutely life-changing for both of us.

I’ve always thought the reason why the Dilophosaurus could spit venom and had a frill in the movie is because they had to mix other reptile DNA into it. For example frilled lizards and a spitting cobra to complete the dinosaur fragments of DNA. That would make sense because they didn’t had to fill the gaps with frog DNA and they needed to do it with this dinosaur. but one of the things they didn’t mention in the movies and they did in the books is that they didn’t just use rotini they used all kinds of reptile and amphibian DNA to. The reason why they needed to do this is because early jurassic Amber with mosquitoes in it are impossible to get in the world so far and probably very rare in the Jurassic Park world.

I always look forward to these videos & I was hoping you'd address the new papers regarding Dilophosaurus as it's been one of my favorite theropods ever since I was a kid. I also have to admit that hearing the description of the holotype individuals messed up arms made me wince a little, really just goes to show how tough these animals were.

It's interesting to note that double head crests were a trend with macropredatory theropods in the Early Jurassic. Besides Dilophosaurus, there's also China's Sinosaurus (which was once considered a synonym of the former) and Antarctica's Cryolophosaurus, possibly the South African Dracovenator too, all from different corners of the globe. Some workers have treated them as forming a phylogenetic group, the "dilophosaurs", but that's controversial and I haven't seen this being treated as a natural group in years.

I think the whole "rattle" deal with the Jurassic Park Dilophosaurus was just a case of cheesy sound design. Filmmakers tend to use a rattlesnake rattle as a go-to for any kind of hissing or otherwise snake-like noise, regardless of whether the animal would actually make that sound.
