You forgot one word.

Ok, but why were you showing silhouettes of dinosaurs at the beginning?

Hi, nice video. I'm happy my animation was useful but I would've appreciated being credited while you show it on screen. I expect the artists of the other images you use would feel the same... for your future videos!

Great video by the way, I have a question can the DNA of hippos to turn them into the ancestors of whales like pakicetus, Indohyus, rodhocetus, protocetus, maiacetus, kutchicetus and ambulocetus?to give shape to their extinct versions, You just have to extract some DNA and clone it there is a chance that this will work or am i wrong?in conclusion, technology continues to advance that requires centuries and millennia to be improved and by the way I like to know the evolution of whales but I am also fascinated by cloning and what I said is an example it is not real, correct me if I am wrong, greetings❤😊
