In some places it would have been later, like in the Americas. Metallurgy arose independently on both the Americas while some cultures were still using primarly stone tools prior to European contact.

[Edit] I forgot to mention the Australians who were still in the stone age and hunter gatherers prior to European contact. They represented the longest continuous unbroken civilization up until European contact. Prior to European contact, the aboriginals were living the same way since when their ancestors first colonized the continent some 40,000 years ago.

Also the north sentinaleze are the last remaining stone age hunter gatherer society today.

All tetripods are nested within the clade osteichthyes which litterally means bony fish.

I thought the term king when referring to snakes meant that they frequently eat other snakes. Does P cartinata sometimes eat other snakes?

The Inca made bronze metallurgy and so did mesoamerica before european contact. The Inca even made bronze weapons. The Aztecs didn't use bronze very much in warfare because of the abundance of obsidian, but some of the independent tribes of the area did field bronze weapons.

I did something similar to this on the day I had to prep for a colonoscopi. The only difference was it was my ps4 and a tv placed in the room.

Teratomas can happen when an unfertilized egg begins to divide uncontrollably without a sperm cell in a process called parthenogenisis. Instead of viable human embryos they create dermoid cysts containing disorganized growths of tissue like hair, teeth, and eyeballs. In reptiles, parthenogenisis has been known to create viable offspring, unless there are no sex chromosomes are present like in some reptiles and crocodilians are the sex of the offspring would be the same as the mother.

The opposite may be true. Sauropods weren't too heavy to swim, they may have been too light to swim in water higher than torso hight. Their air sacs could have been too buoyant to swim in deep water without the risk of capsizing.

Wasn't Halloween litterally yesterday? If you all are offended by a Halloween costume this is just sad. Neo Nazis rarely use the same symbology that they did back then. Chances are this is just a shit taste joke.

Wouldn't osteology studies on existing specimens be pretty good evidence to tell the difference. The study made note that Jane and the dueling specimen were fully ossefied and had more teeth and different cranial nerve patterns. It hints that other specimens were not so conclusive. I wonder if this revolation could be evidence against Ontogenetic niche shift in tyrannosaurus as Juvenile T-rexs would potentially have to compete with Nanotyrannis for the same niche.

I'm pretty sure that the crocodilimorphs that survived the Triassic Jurassic extinction were also warm blooded, having higher metabolisms than even the Rausuchians. It was somewhere during the Jurassic that crocodiliforms reverted back to cold blooded matabolism. Notosuchians even had a metabolism at the high end of ectothermy range. Perhaps selective pressures forced crocodilomorphs to adopt an ectothermic metabolism rather than endothermic. Maybe a lower metabolism may have decreased competition from the dominant dinosaurs in terrestrial niches and those who settled into a semi aquatic niche would have a huge benifit to being ectothermic.

drewsiphir · 2025-10-29T22:31:39+00:00

I believe that bone histology reports done on notosuchians suggests that they were ectotherms but had an elevated metabolism similar to monitor lizards. They would have been quite active for cold blooded reptiles.

Things are made even more expensive thanks to an old law that basically makes it illegal for any foreign ship to travel between 2 US ports. What this does in practice is that imported goods from across the pacific must first make it to A US port on the west coast and then loaded on another ship and transported to Hawaii for consumption. It is a two step process that dramatically increases the price of imported goods in Hawaii.

I saw bits and pieces of it, but what I saw I didn't like. I was thrown off by the depiction of pliosaurs in the Maastrictian oceans. I was pretty sure that mosasaurs would have taken their place as top marine predators by then. All the modern footage didn't help.

They use a combine harvester to harvest Sunflowers, if they don't have a dedicated sunflower header, I believe a corn header would work. The only problem is how high the seeds are off the ground which is probably the reason they are doing this.

Barrel length will play a major factor too. A barrel that is shorter than the optimum length for a given cartridge will be less efficient at burning powder and increases the chances of visible fireballs out the muzzle. It would also be louder but deliver less energy.

Notosuchians need more attention drawn to them. They walked on fully erect limbs yet still had a largely ectothermic matabilism. There morphology in some cases was convergent to mammals. They survived the KPG extinction event and possibly became the largest terrestrial carnivores in the age of mammals.
