恐竜が支配する前の地球は異常すぎた！三畳紀の奇妙な王者たち

What happened in the Triassic world before dinosaurs ruled the Earth? This book traces the devastated Earth after the mass extinction, the strange ancient creatures, and the true beginning of how dinosaurs became dominant. The Mesozoic Era wasn't a dinosaur paradise from the start. The Triassic Earth began as a world almost completely destroyed by the Permian-end mass extinction, with many ecosystems lost. Pangaea was dominated by scorching heat and aridity. Amidst this, rhistrosaurs survived, ichthyosaurs returned to the sea, phytosauria resembled crocodiles but weren't, and pseudocrocodiles dominated the land before the dinosaurs. In the Triassic, incredibly strange creatures, almost unbelievable from a modern perspective, were experimenting with evolution on land, rivers, seas, and in the air. However, dinosaurs weren't the strongest from the beginning. Early dinosaurs were small, inconspicuous, and lived in the shadow of gigantic predators. So why did dinosaurs ultimately become the rulers of the Earth? The answer lies in the Carnian rainfall event, the changes in Pangaea, and the mass extinction at the end of the Triassic period. This video clearly explains how the age of dinosaurs began through the "strange world before dinosaurs" of the Triassic period.
