  There’s something that just hits way harder when channels use real photos, drawings, and actual art instead of AI

  Thank you for not using ai in your videos. YouTube is packed full of ai slop nowadays, so your channels is always a fresh breath.

  I swear that normal animals were absolute beasts back then (especially on isolated places)

  Since we got a video on ancient New Zealand, I’d love to see a video on ancient Madagascar. The fauna was just as unique as New Zealand’s, and it was good to see one of its inhabitants, the Elephant Bird, make an appearance at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Zi73KD2EdU&amp;t=155">2:35</a>.

  Sad to see the foot of the last extinct Moa is so well-preserved and we were SO CLOSE to being able to see them today if a population of 40+ survived. <br><br>Though the same could be said for the Passenger Pigeon, of which there were billions, and the Thylacine. &apos;<br><br>GOD! HOW MUCH I WISH I COULD SEE RECENTLY EXTINCT SPECIES LIKE THESE!<br><br>Cheers,<br>Raúl

  It&apos;s the cruelest irony that in becoming the first species intelligent enough to understand its position in space and time, we inflicted untold destruction in our conquest of every biome to get there.

  Yo I’m nz/Māori. Fun fact &nbsp;prehistoric zoo there actually is a nz mammal that’s not a bat called the saint bathans mammal. It’s native to nz and thought to be a 4 legged possum type creature however only a lower jaw bone and a femur have been found

  We humans truly seem to had a beef against large and/or ground dwelling birds from prehistory

  The moment a human steps foot on an island, the doomsday clock for it&apos;s animals starts to tick

  The art of the Haast Eagle at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Zi73KD2EdU&amp;t=65">1:05</a> makes it look like the Pokémon Talonflame
