Crustaceous means relating to crustaceans, like crabs and shrimp.
I think you mean Cretaceous 🤣
Awesome documentary though, good work.
I've actually never seen an evolution video specific to prehistoric tarantulas, this video filled me with awe!! Editing and footage choices were top notch. I don't mind the spelling errors since it's in the comments and I'm sure this inspired people to do further research on their own! I felt like a kid again discovering something new and awesome. Pretty incredible how beautifully attune these animals are that they retained so much of their forms from ancient times. And yet the sheer diversity is staggering. One day I'll have the guts to have a tarantula. Thanks for the awesome upload!
Cretaceous, from chalk in Latin. I really like the video, and the channel.
Yeah, I do love your channel too. I have been researching tarantula care after my sister showed up about a month ago after going to a reptile exhibit and said "Hey, here's your Christmas present. We got you a tarantula!" I have indeed wanted one for years so they got me a Honduran curly hair. I think it is a large spiderling/small juvenile right now as it is about the size of a half dollar coin, maybe a little bigger. They also found a jumping spider in their car so I have it also in one of the included enclosures. My sister in law didn't like that very much when I told her a couple weeks later. My brother had neglected to inform her about that, hee hee. Now she won't come down to my apartment anymore. That and because of the other regular spiders I live around in the apartment. Black widows and such as I can identify as being more troublesome I get rid of though. Case in point, I saw 3 different spiders crossing my kitchen floor last night inside of 10 minutes. I think I saw one of them again in my bathroom later lol.
But also, please tell me where you got Crustaceous, haha.
These videos showcasing and talking about spiders are slowly convincing my dad to let me get a tarantula, and also convincing him that they won't eat him in his sleep, lol. Thanks Richard!
That's awesome!
@@tarantulacollective 💜💜💜
Hey Richard! Excellent video, thank you🤙🏼
Have you ever thought of doing a "World Tour" series where you can dive deep into each country/continent (depending on how many you want to do)
Because I would love to have you explain the native tarantulas of my 🇿🇦 or Africa. I'm sure everyone else would love the same for their country.
cool idea!
@@tarantulacollective F@!king A man lets goooo.
Didn't even know if you would see this.
Love what you're doing for the community and pushing for rethinking our husbandry practices.
🤘🏼
I find the evolution and ancient history of arachnids to be incredibly interesting and really love your videos and research done into the inclusion of spiders in cultures, myths and religions around the world, especially as it’s difficult to find any good content for such subjects online.
I also enjoy watching your podcasts everytime I sit down to eat! Great work always.
Absolutely love this content. Great job on your study of the evolution of our beloved tarantulas..... Please do more!!!!
I'm getting my first tarantula. I went from arachnophobic to finding them fascinating to wanting to own one. I enjoy these videos.
Very cool!
Love the vid!❤
Awesome vid!
This is awesome. Thank you!
Great video, dude!
This is heat 🔥
Great video as it always is. Thanks for your time and work on all of these projects and videos that you are working on.
Wow, great video! It's always fun to learn more about these amazing creatures. Thank you!
Absolutely brilliant! Thank you for the great video Richard 👍🏼
I wish I could like it more than once, this video was awesome!! 🕸️
I love these, I'm a huge fan of spider evolution
Great video, hope to see more documentaries lok. this in future
I really enjoy videos about evolution, thanks for this video
Great video also happy Thanksgiving Richard
Hello great video information Richard
You have a really good style. No errors, fluid and natural narration... high quality stuff!
this was another great video where I was pausing and rewinding to read all the words in the graphics you included! I love this kind of information. also rewound for the very choice tarantula footage, their enclosures are looking so natural and lush
I absolutely loved learning about the evolutional history of tarantulas. Absolutely brilliant! Loved this! Thank you , Richard! You did an amazing job! Thanks! 😊❤️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏾
More to come! I am glad you enjoyed it.
Very cool
Fantastic video, as usual !! ❤
Thank you so much 😀
Glad you did this video! Most deep time videos do not mention spiders' evolution, tending to focus on dinosaurs/reptiles and mammals.
It's one thing I never understood. Tarantulas originated in what's now the America's, yet all of those species are considered "new world" tarantulas. I would think they would be the "old worlds".
Just had my first successful sling molt the other day, I was pumped as hell lol.
A different sort of video for you Richard and it was awesome. Keep up the good work!
Thanks, will do!
Spider evolution? One of my favourite topics. You could (should?) (maybe?) have started with trilobites. Those cambrian oceans were the stuff of awsome nightmares.
Crustaceus lol prefer that name awesome vid!
Wow , Talk about an evolution lesson !. This video was Brilliant . Thank you Richard
Glad you enjoyed it
I'd love to see someone make an arachnid phylogeny video. Great work!
Oh yeah, this is the kind of content I subscribe for. Great video, Richard!
Awesome, thank you!
I love the amber fossils 🥰
Tarantulas- if it ain't broke don't fix it 😂😂😂
It is awesome that some specimens have been preserved for us to study now since they decompose so easily. As always, loved the video!
Omfg so stoked yay
I can actually watch this
Could watch things like this all day ...
I will have to make more!
Awesome video. The quality of your videos is top notch!
Much appreciated!
Great video.
I'm so fascinated by tarantulas by watching the videos on here and other channels. Not sure if I could look after one but it must be a fulfilling hobby.
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you find the videos interesting!
Crustaceous? LOL
An engaging video Richard. Looks great. I like that you used the "age of ..." as a through-line.
Thanks so much. I am glad you enjoyed the video and I really appreciate your support.
Nice one 🕷️🕸️🤘
Thanks ✌
Nhandu species next plss🕷️
Wonderful video, Richard! I always enjoy these videos. And, of course, the videography is always superb! And I learned a few things.
I do have a question, though. Those fossils found in rock, do you happen to know their size? DLS?
Glad you enjoyed it! From what I researched, the Megarachne servinei fossil from Argentina was dated back about 300 million years old. They described it as a giant tarantula with a 50cm leg-span which is nearly 20 inches across! So 2-3x the size of your basic tarantula, can you imagine!
@@tarantulacollective Holy Crow! That's huge. My T. blondi isn't even going to be that big! Can you even imagine a T that big on your windshield in the morning before going to work!
@@tarantulacollective The video was great and interesting! As a northern European viewer, I would like to see the metric system added to the videos so that I can understand the dimensions better.
To keep a tarantula that big, we would need terrariums to be the size of a room, and feeding them would be more than interesting! 😂
Thanks
Rock on! Thanks so much for the support!
@@tarantulacollective it's a really interesting, informative video
"Formelu Lampropelma violaceopes" 😂 I do like channel. As you can see, I watch carefully
It’s important to note that there’s currently no evidence that there have ever been spiders or early spider ancestors bigger than the largest spiders of today, although admittedly this could conceivably be because no larger specimens fossilized.
It would be interesting to do a video tracing each of the three main spider lineages, the Mygalomorphae (the earliest known example being the Rosamygale grauvogeli of Triassic France), the Opisthothelae (which are the most primitive of all spiders), and the Araneomorphae, although that would be a more difficult video to research.
Love anything evolution related, and I'm a recovering arachniphobe.
I love the video, but Mesotheles don't get any love.
I'd love to see a video about this tertiary and little known branch of spiders.
Tho my belief is not the same on the age of our world, I Loved the vid !! 🎉
Great video, but there are a few mistakes. Arthropod size in the Carboniferous had little if anything to do with oxygen levels. It was more because of the lack of competition from land vertebrates. Many arthropods can actively pump air in and out of their tracheal systems through muscular contractions, so they are not totally passive breathers.
But great video nonetheless.
'Think they'll have that on the tour?
Hi Richard how are you doing
Hey Richard, think you might have gotten the Cretaceous period mixed up with crustaceans. "crustaceous".
Other than that, wonderful and informative video. Well done with the research
I got a baby common snapping turtle from underground reptiles and i have 4 tarantulas a baby bearded dragon and a ring neck dove and a cat and 3 dogs
And a tailless whip scorpion
Just a heads up it’s “Cretaceous” not crustaceous…. Also Jurassic is spelled with two S and one R
thanks. as long as the only thing I screw up is spelling and pronunciation ... lol
Im willing to bet the crustaceous thing is to encourage commenting. Its a fair tactic so heres my comment lol
Missed the Permian period. Which is the age of synapsids or mammal like reptiles.
Yeah, I just fast forwarded through it because I couldn't find much info on arachnids from that time.
I found Black Widow in my bathroom
cretaceous
First 🕷️
I wonder how it feels to be pinned
Believe it or not This is now no longer considered the Cenozoic (Age of Mammals) Era. It's now being considered the Anthropocene Era or Age of Man. Taking in the domination of humans and the impact we seem to be having on the world we all live in. As for the use of the word Primative (sp?), many scholars now use the words basal and derived. Nothing wrong with the old word but if people give you grief you have other options. As an example you can say that dogs are a highly derived set or subset of Grey Wolves. The traits they have that the wolves still do are basal traits. The changed ones would be derived traits.
Please don't get upset with my Pedantry. Words are kind of my thing, Part pet peeve, part fascination. I grew up in an era when retard was an accepted medical term. So I am well familiar with how words work or change over time.
Eveloution is not a proven fact. You forget that what you say using the word Eveloution is only a Hypothesis (guess). Its lately that the science world without any proof wants to state Eveloution as a proven fact when it isn't. Your statements are misleading when you exclued Hypothesis (guess)a reminder.
In biology, evolution refers to observed changes in organisms over successive generations, to their descent from a common ancestor, and at a technical level to a change in gene frequency over time; it can also refer to explanatory theories (such as Charles Darwin's theory of natural selection) which explain the mechanisms of evolution. To a scientist, fact can describe a repeatable observation capable of great consensus; it can refer to something that is so well established that nobody in a community disagrees with it. Evidence for evolution continues to be accumulated and tested. Is there another theory you are aware of where evidence continues to be accumulated and tested, continually supporting and/or proving it correct?
Very informative and interesting. 2 of my fave yt channels must have had an osmosis moment as u and @davesbeastieroom doing almost similar his was mainly OW
