In Lion King, Scar used an army of Hyenas to try and uh..."remove"...Simba, but as we know, this didn't turn out so great for him, well I am here to tell you that things would have panned out quite different, if he had just hired this prehistoric Hyena instead.

Of the 31 extinctions (give or take) that life has faced, you may have only been taught in school about the kt event, aka the extinction that took out the dinosaurs. And you might've been led to believe that it was the worst day for life ever... you've been lied too.

Before the killer whale, or the barracuda, or even the great white, there was the king of lizards, or rather a whale, that looked more like a mosasaur or snake than any whale you or me is familiar with.

Hey you! Yeah you, wanna take a sweet vacation to an Island? I got the perfect place for you...

Harder, better, faster, stronger....Daft Punk really just made a song about neanderthals.

The Late Jurassic Morrison Formation was one of the most brutal places to ever exist. You had giant sauropods and cannibalistic theropods roaming about, and still somehow, things got even crazier when you looked at some of the 'smaller' dinosaurs, with one herbivore in particular actually being more grisly then some of the predators around...

Arrrr, here be krakens matey! Well, not really, but kind of... especially when you look at prehistoric waters.

You know how I've reiterated that you shouldn't get into the water, no matter how bad things get on land, well... there is ONE exception to this rule. 0:00Nature’s Unspoken Rule And The Period That Broke It 00:45Geography & Oceanography 02:15What Lived In The Oceans & Seas 03:56What Caused Life In The Water To Be So Unscary? 04:35The Opposite Story On Land & Earth’s Old Rulers 05:11Earth’s Original Sabre-Tooths (Gorgonopsids) 06:30The Largest Predator & Gorgon...

The ancient Greeks & Romans did a lot during their times, spreading far and wide, which also led them to seeing a lot too. These sights included landscapes, other civilizations, and even exotic animals too, some of which are sadly no longer around today….

People often ask about how bad the asteroid that struck the dinosaurs was, or what would happen if it hit earth today, but no one's really asked just how long the dinosaurs survived after d-day...

The Ice Age was no doubt one of earth’s most questionable phases, being a very brutal time that led to brutal animals, and sometimes these animals were so ferocious that they made other monsters seem a bit dull, one such animal that did this was the Smilodon.

Jaws, the most iconic shark film of all time, is likely the source of thalassophobia in millions of people worldwide. And it's not hard to see why, cause… well sharks just look really scary, far scarier than whales, but there was one whale, now far gone, that actually would’ve made for one terrifying jaws, the Livyatan.

Quick, someone tell Caesar

If you thought Jaws was scary, wait until you see what prehistoric sea monsters lurked in the depths of this ocean...

Dinosaurs in general are pretty weird, but just how weird did they get? Well it turns out, pretty dang weird...

Can it get any more American? Supersized, comeback story, the name - Alamosaurus has it all!

Titanoboa ain't top dog anymore

Everyday it's estimated that over 100 species die, that's quite a lot, but let's face it most of these species we never hear of, so we don’t really think often about this stat. Yet, once in a while a species well-known to people disappears, causing us to stop for a minute and ponder…

I wonder who was the favorite child...

10,000 years ago of all kinds of titans roamed America, and I mean ALL KINDS, we're talking giant beavers, mammoths, wolves and more... Thankfully for us we no longer have to worry about a not-so friendly Smilodon jumping us while out running, but the same could not be said for the Native Americans, who not only lived alongside them but also managed to thrive.

Our ancestors had it ROUGH. On the bright side, there was a good chance you would've been the world's best at something...

"Not so tough now are you tyrant king" circa 66 Mya

If you hate bugs, or any other type of creepy crawlies, you probably shouldn't listen to this
