a tour of my animal sanctuary

[@Sivvii]

crazy how much alveus has grown in such a short period of time! If y’all don’t know alveus twitch channel is on 24/7 with live cams of the animals! would love to see y’all there!

[@cosmostardust5624]

GREAT PLUG!!❤

[@Jake-do3ly]

Does twitch prevent them from live-streaming on KZbin as well?

A yearly update on the enclosures and animals would be sick! Hope this becomes a yearly series.

[@georgiasumby6092]

As a training vet nurse I can not CAN NOT fault anything about this sanctuary one of the best sanctuaries I’ve ever seen abides by the 5 freedoms and domains (search them up if you’re interested in animal welfare) keeps all the animals separated that need to be separated, gives the emu a pool to swim in, they love water. I’m going to show this to my lecturers as an example of good animal husbandry so they can show their students that come after me. Love from Australia

[@handroids1981]

Hey fellow Aussie. That's good to know. Can you tell the Gov to let us have Quakkas and Quolls as pets, please?

[@georgiasumby6092]

@@handroids1981 would love too but I do feel like you would have to have a license to keep them personally.

[@st8ofgray]

@@handroids1981absolutely not???? they're wild animals NOT pets. there are plenty of unique domesticated animals for you to have as pets.

[@jordynensor2081]

@handroids1981 quokkas can contract fatal diseases from just being touched by humans. that’s why there’s a fine in place if you touch one.

[@youreinvalid8493]

​​@@handroids1981why would you want to keep wild animals that would be incredibly unhappy as a pet? Odd.

Crazy how it’s only been like 2 years and she has got so much done. Love following the Alveus journey

[@coaster7099]

Another amazing video Maya - my favourite part was when the rat was on the skateboard and then the other one went shopping, that was the best ! Keep up the great work and look after animal !

[@jordynensor2081]

certified cute ass comment

[@ironickrempt]

Siren's babbling is so cute, makes me smile every time. Thank you for taking care of all the animals

[@noodlepoodleoddle]

3:46 Danny you are a god damn hero for understanding the pain. This is the first time I've seen an editor do this and I can't tell you how much I appreciate you.

[@newsheo5822]

17:20 I was worried Maya would get headbutted by the goats but then I noticed Oatmeal wasn't there

[@raah1_]

The Thumbnail on this video is everything ✨🤌

[@sand3857]

frrr

[@winstonsmith11]

Ok. You're right. It kind of is everything.

[@blueflamedabi2403]

''im sorry if this is boring'' what on earth are you even talking about hahaha i feel like everybody and anybody that watches this love it and are losing their minds throughout the entire video, you are a for real hero!

[@ShaneH42]

I’m remembering when it was just Maya with a temperamental backpack and not enough pixels, it was hard to see what she was doing sometimes, let alone figure out the layout of the place. The way the sanctuary and production quality have improved is outrageous and can only be achieved with hard work, dedication and love

[@happy_camper]

I got kinda emotional watching this. Your love and care for these animals, as well as your passion for educating others, is so damn inspiring.

[@tymmmmmmmmmmm]

maya touring us to her fun palace is what i needed today

[@keeper6458]

Me too

[@the_bridge6817]

I haven't work with animals couple years now, and watching this reminded me how much I loved it! You have a beautiful property and a good heart!

[@alphaengine3048]

04:10 was funny af

[@driverjayne]

I will never get sick of the camera panning over to donkey face. It's the best gag ever.

[@sammyjcomedyable]

I LOVE that you're spending time uploading to YT, I just hardly have time for streams unfortunately, but the videos make it easy to play before bed or while I eat etc!

[@caitcat0613]

i adore alveus and it’s so amazing to watch the sanctuary grow :’) what you’re doing is wonderful!!!

[@jaydengreen595]

She fr reignites my passion for animals I'd love to do what she currently is doing one day.

[@glitch8949]

No matter how many times you give a tour of alveus, it never gets old. Can't wait to see what comes to the future of alveus

[@Azrael2812]

The parrot stopping his chattering right as Maya is done talking is peak comedy to me. I know it is probably annoying if you live with these animals every day but to me, as someone who doesn't own one of those, it is exactly what makes me love them.

[@seanathanbeanathan]

I tell people that parrots are an excellent pet if you want a flying toddler who lives 15~70 years, has wire cutters on their face, and is so intelligent you have to plan your entire life around them to prevent depression. Their biggest expense aside from food is toys and you will be replacing every individual toy within about a month, and they need a lot of them I have four (3 green cheeks and a canary wing), and you can *feel* the screams on your eardrums

[@seanathanbeanathan]

The upside to this is that I always have a way to get out of plans 😂

[@NicsTrueNorth]

All bird owners are the most aggressive bird haters when someone asks if they should get a bird

[@seanathanbeanathan]

@@NicsTrueNorth The good ones are, at least 😂

[@aaronmartinez1]

I'm new here to the channel, but what you're doing here has been a dream of mine since I was in middle school. This is so cool to see and amazing how well learned you are with all of these beautiful animals! This video honestly inspired me a lot!

[@humandoodad]

Excellent editing, editors! I love seeing everyone.

[@sunsetter2717]

watching your channel over the years has made me want to do your line of work when I grow up

[@lylajoyreynolds6103]

Thank you maya just in general for teaching me and others about animals and what happens to them in our world. Thank you maya for being such a great person for us and animals :)

[@caitlinjalbert4406]

maya is such a great human! I look forward to all ur streams MEAL PRE MONDAYS!! Thanks for caring for the animals!

[@Eric-gw2lx]

the animals are really taken care of, good job to Maya and the Alveus team

[@ctrlshiftn2132]

7:32 I really appreciate the zombie reference, as short as it was. Very cool little detail that makes me love your videos.

[@naomi0connor]

Maya, i absolutely love your work. I’m a newer subscriber and I don’t have twitch so you may have explained this already, but i would love to hear your story on how you started your sanctuary! This line of work is right up my alley but i don’t know the first thing about how or where to start.

[@kemalgozler1706]

first you should volunteer at dog/cat shelters, local wildlife rehab centers. if you wanna work with animals you need to start very bottom to gain experience

[@artistlovepeace]

You all do such an astonishing job promoting your animal sanctuary. Thank you for producing and sharing all these stories with the world. You are doing great and wonderful work.

[@sodaryl]

Thanks for the tour, super proud of what you've done in such a short time with Alveus and love the content it provides. Would like to hug Stompy some day.

[@dianabodnari5131]

I admire you so much for creating this sanctuary. It's amazing how you have helped these beautiful animals and I hope you will be able to extend it in the future.

[@aggiepearl2000]

YOUR VIDEOS MAKE ME LOSE MY DEPRESSION❤❤

[@wholesomepenguin5917]

Thanks for the wholesome tour of all the great ambassadors homes 🐧

[@starmanchimp]

Siren spoke more than Maya in this video 😂

[@iamFracture]

Keep going Maya! Proud of you that's a lot of responsibility, nothing but respect.

[@lordofentropy]

Thank you so much for taking care of these animals, especially with such attention to their needs in their enclosures and encouraging their foraging behaviors. It's inspiring you've put all your own personal resources, time, and energy into it.

[@abibudgiesisters2406]

ty maya for sharing! so proud of how much love, devotion, diligence and patience u have as u continue to grow alveus

[@archercaro]

the marmoset enclosure is definitely my favorite!!!!

[@vaporean_boylove.0w083]

Saw this is my recommendations and I'm very happy i'm watching the content now

[@Shorado]

Maya reinvigorated my love for animals in general and made me want to continue my initial dream of taking care of animals. Alveus Sanctuary is such a small blip on the world but has such a huge impact. I can only hope to do something as life changing for animals in general like Alveus has done for me.

Oh wow here in Brazil I had a macaw that was just like Tico, same name as well. He died early 2023, so seeing this now remembered me of him. Love the sanctuary!

[@laura6874]

i've been getting more and more into conservation ever since i started following you ❤ i became a member of ZSL Zoo recently and have been going there all the time to draw the animals (my first reason for joining was to beef up my art portfolio), but i have talks and lectures booked to attend there and have been getting into different local conservation efforts - i've always loved animals but you make conservation work seem a lot more approachable!

[@STSGuitar16]

When you actually think about it, it is absolutely wild that there are animals that can literally speak to you and understand what you’re saying sometimes. I mean, think about it: freakin parrots can actually talk to you and even answer questions intelligently. Crazy. We take that for granted.
