ITT: /an/ creates a prehistoric documentary series. How many

>>2252388
I want a scene that shows the monkeys rafting and ending up in South America, like they did.
The Great American Interchange would be another nice story to tell. You would have the South American animals slowly succumb to (some of the) North American ones.

>>2252388
Pleistocene Australia would be really comfy as well.

>>2252434
I agree that the Great American Interchange would be interesting.
It would be a story of survival of the fittest to the extreme.
Watching a scene of animals migrating en-masse between the Panama would be awe inspiring.
Giant Sloths lumbering past confused sabretooths would be surreal.
The genocide of south american animals by sabretooths would be brutal also.

>>2252439
Pleistocene Australia would be fascinating as it had giant wombats, carnivorous kangaroos, etc. The marsupials are unique therefore a breath of fresh air from typical placenta megafauna up north.

I have always thought a WwD type documentary series would work really well with Pokémon

Absolutely autistic but I would check it out anyway, Kek

>>2252388
Late Devonian Ohio would be cool, give attention to Dinichthys, Tegeolepis, Titanichthys and obligatory Dunkleosteus

>>2252388
Finally, I can walk with collection.

>>2252954
I usually don't do this but it would be better if you killed yourself.

>>2252388
Another paleozoic documentary

>>2253400
Kek agrees with you.
The paleozoic is has always been horribly neglected in prehistoric documentaries. Even walking with monsters was a b grade spinoff from walking with dinosaurs.

Holy hell do we need a good Paleozoic documentary. It is criminally underrated. I'd especially like to see the Carboniferous and Permian Marine biota, as they tend to get neglected once life moves to land.

I wanna know about Antarctica before it was a frozen helllscape. Think if it had as unique shit as other continents

I'd just mix walking with dinosaurs with the hunt
Having David Attenborough narrate of course

It would be really cool to focus on the radiation of sharks and other cartilaginous fish after the decline of the placoderms, they evolved in such weird ways.

>>2256028
This is my dream, it would be absolutely amazing.

>>2256003
The problem is we don't have many fossils from Antarctica, as it's covered in ice.

>>2255880
I've never seen a marine documentary set in the Caboniferous or Permian in my life.
and as you said in >>2256168
the diversity and evolution of sharks was astounding then.

Also marine setting that has never been done is Burgess Shale, Cambrian. I've seen the creatures in books a lot, but never on tv.
WWM showed Anomalocaris in china for a little bit, but that was fucking nothing compared to the ecosystem in canada.
To be honest WWM was a hack stirred up for easy money. No effort whatsoever.

>>2256028
It'd probably be shit in practice though. Hunting in dinosaur shows is always boring.

theres a few ecosystems filled out in prehistoric Antarctica

The Early Triassic saw some giant Amphibians like Kryostega and Antarctosuchus along with Lystrosaurus, Parotosuchus and Cynognathus

Early Jurassic saw Crylophosaurus and Glacilisaurus..err and bits and pieces of other things..

Late Cretaceous had a multitude of sea life Aristonectes, Vegasaurus, large ammonite Diplomoceras maybe a few shots from the land dwelling Morrosaurus and Vegavis.

The Oligocene/Eocene saw a few birds and primitive whales like Llanocetus, giant penguin Anthropornis and smol penguin Archaeospheniscus

Australian faunas are also the same as Antarctic ones for most of Earth's history, so animals found there were also present on Antarctica up until the mid Cretaceous.

prior to that it was joined with south Africa as well, so it shares some paleofaunas with that landmass.

Primarily it's marked by the same faunas as Australia and Africa in the Triassic and then shares faunal assemblages with Australia during the Jurassic-Cretaceous.
