What Beasts Ruled the Last Ice Age? (Ft. @NaturalWorldFacts)


Welcome to the history of the Earth — through the Pleistocene Epoch. The Earth once was engulfed in an Ice Age, a period that transformed the planet into a realm of icy plains and towering glaciers, where majestic beasts like the towering woolly mammoths, the mighty cave bears and the elusive saber-toothed cat lived and ruled.

  1. Life & The Earth is a brand built by the following scientific partners:
    Writing by Bennett Davenport from @TheBudgetMuseum
    Voiceover by Leo Richards, from @NaturalWorldFacts
    Team building by Oliver Gilpin from @MrSpherical and Telos Media

    We hope you enjoy!

  2. Very well done! Clearly this video has been much better researched and written than most others on the topic. It is also expertly narrated; it's a joy to hear a real person narrate and not some annoyingly cheap machine narration. I particularly appreciate you making the point that what most people (and especially most producers of videos on the subject) refer to as the "last ice age" was actually just the most recent glacial period. I also appreciate the notation that in between the many glacial periods over the past 2.5 million years have been warm interglacial periods like the one we are in now and the fact that some of those were actually warmer than now. It would have been good, however, to note that the ice age is not over and that Earth will cycle back into another glacial period in the coming 40,000 to 100,000 years. Nevertheless, this is one of the best video presentations on this topic that I have seen online. Bravo!

  3. finally, a video connecting the northern hemisphere ice age to the isthmus of Panama and the Antarctic to the separation of Antarctica and South America, though not sure why emphasizing the first event in Oligocene ~30M+ and not the reglaciation in the Miocene ~16Mya.
    too many videos on Milankovitch cycles which only explain the Pleistocene modulation of glaciation and not the absence before Panama closed off
