Todos los Depredadores Prehistóricos SUDAMERICANOS Explicados

South America functioned as an island continent for millions of years, allowing evolution to create lineages of hunters found nowhere else in the world. In this episode of Everything Explained, we analyze the biology, biomechanics, and hunting tactics of eight of the deadliest creatures that ruled the Southern Hemisphere. From dinosaurs that outsized northern predators to flightless birds that dethroned reptiles, we break down the anatomy of these prehistoric monsters based on the latest paleontological findings.
