Mate this is the first time I've ever commented on KZitem and I'm glad it's because of your content; I've been following your uploads for a while now, they're so informative well based and peer reviewed, can honestly say you're up there with David Attenborough for generating interest and providing new information to us about biology and paleontology. But this latest video about the dinosaurs of my country (australia) blew my mind. I've worked on bits of Matilda, seen banjo in the flesh (or lack there of) and met David Elliot; (really increadible bloke but you'd expect nothing less from the creator of the age of the dinosaurs museum). This may appear like name dropping and to some degree it probably is, but the hype from having my favorite KZitemr create a video about things I'm not only passionate about but have had direct involvement in, (regardless how small) was too much for me to contain. Tldr; you're increadible and please keep doing what you do. Also aaaaaa, I'm going back to Winton and richmond again in October :D, I'll send you an icthyosaur tooth if I find one

Australia and India are located on the same tectonic plate and were once connected. Salt water crocodiles are found from australia, to India and all along this same pathway between the two countries that once served as a land bridge between them. Australian aborigines and Indians are both derived from the australoid race.

Speaking of dinosaurs being worldwide, there are actually dinosaurs from New Zealand, none of them are named of course, being fairly fragmentary. The most complete one is the rib of a Nodosaur. Antarctica and New Zealand were pretty close at the time and it's a similar age to Antarctopelta, so there's a good chance they are related, though we'll likely never know for sure, with the most recent dinosaur material from New Zealand being published in the early 90s.

Australiovenator might have been after more mid-sized prey than other therapods of it's weight class, since it's arms are so developed. If your prey is smaller than you, there's no need to stick your face in it to do enough damage to incapacitate it, plus the narrow jaws and tiny teeth would suit the 'venator just fine with smaller meals.
