It's a shame that tuataras aren't available- captive bred, of course. Establishing captive breeding populations of threatened or endangered reptiles seems like a good insurance policy against them going extinct in the wild, and provided that captive breeding hasn't sufficiently changed them to the point that they aren't compatible with their natural habitat, releasing a bunch of them back into the wild would be possible if needed. But unfortunately, I doubt we'll take this approach with tuataras at this point.
@Marus89535 жыл бұрын
I actually own a matamata turtle. Amazingly, it was captive bred by a fellow Hungarian turtle keeper and I see more and more Americans and European breeders succeeding in that, seeing more and more captive bredd. So anyway. Luckily I have never experienced any kind of respiratory infection and I have the lil fella for almost a year now... Granted, the only time my room temperature of 22-27 Celsius Degree and 50-60% humidity drops down to 20 Celsius max minimum and 45% is when I open the windows to let fresh air in. The aquarium has a sliding top lid, but I often forget to close that when I change air, so in theory it could have caught a flu. Luckily never did and now I am paying more attention to that. As far as my experience goes with captive bred and my friend's, who got a barely over hatchling size wildcaught... They are fairly easy to switch over to frozen-thawed freshwater and brakkish water feederfish. Pretty much all you need to is vibrate the death fish with a tong in front of them while they try to hunt down the live feeder fish. Then they can very quickly associate the vibration then the tong, then the death fish itself with food. Mine now actually is willing to take dead fish from the aquarium floor, cause it recognizes... The smell? The look? I don't know, but it actually finds and vaccuums it up even if I lazily throw it into the opposite end of the aquarium. They pretty much eat anything that can fit into their mouth and is in the water moving or has been recognized as food. Guppies, minnows, platti... They also readily eat aquatic frogs and even pinky mice (I really don't recommend feeding them that regularly, I offer mine 1 every 2-3 months for some extra activity and mimicking their natural diet of picking off small animals fallen into the water if given the chance). A definitie con though, they need brutal, and I mean BRUTAL filtration to keep the water from turning into a death swamp . Like a shoal of piranha kind of brutal. They produce so much ammonia and waste that even with filtration and stuff they make water pH shift to slightly alcalic - (7.4-7.8ish) just by being there. So trying to neutralise that or other parameters of the water can be as frustrating as running a saltwater aquarium. It's tedious often, really. However, one very cool thing about them is that given they need large aquariums, they can be actually kept together with carefully selected fish. Now what you need to keep in mind is that they need to be be able to reach the surface from standing on the bed of the aquarium, so it can't be too deep. The fish roommates also need to be A) big enough not to be eaten alive and B) not toothy and bitey to harm the turtle (so most cichlids and alligator gars are out) while being okay with potential Ph shifts and shallower water. Most people who keep them with fish are having success with bichirs (Polypterus), sailfin plecos (Gibbiceps), leatherfin upside-down / squeaker or any big catfish, ropefish (Erpetoichthys calabaricus), any lungfish, knifefish, Marble goby and the likes. There are reports of successful cohabs with peacock bass, arrowana, angelfish and discusfish as well, but I am a bit skeptical about those working outside of some pretty big luck factors. In my experience bichirs, ropefish, knifefish, big upside-down catfish and marble goby really do get along well with the matamata. But I would say it is pretty trial and error. It's pretty interesting to note it seems to be a beneficial thing to match the turtle with the desired fish the soonest possible, because as far as I tell, on first introduction the turtle will always test with a quick vacuum snap that a fish can be consumed or not. After that, deemed "unedible" entity won 't be attempted to be consumed again unless the size difference becomes huge. So, in conclusion, what I absolutely adore about them is that they can be an alien looking main piece of a beautiful aquarium, but can be kept with certain, well-chosen fish, bringing a piece of Amazonas into one's house. And that is just really cool.

You have an excellent demeanour about you and how you share your wealth of knowledge in this area. I have been fascinated with amphibians and reptiles since about the age of 6, I turned 46 a few days and became a Zoologist/Herpetologist once I attained my degree back in 2015, these creatures will always be a part of my life I have kinda known this since 6. You have definitely and continue to inspire me for how I will approach my outreach in future in the hope that I can help to inspire as many people as possible and that if they can't love these creatures at least they understand thier place in the world. Thank you Clint for all the time and effort that you put into these videos, you truly are an excellent educator/communicator. I wonder if you could do a vid perhaps on medically insignificant snakes or what are listed as such, I have just been gifted a Baron's Green Racer for my bday. I know research for hognose has increased knowledge into their toxicity, just a thought and thanks again.

I bought a ball python 3 months ago. My girlfriend who was previously terrified of snakes, fell in love with him and now we have 2 ball pythons. I told her "you know people will call us a weird couple behind our backs and will be weirded out by us". She was genuinely concerned about it because she hadn't thought about that before.

I'll be getting a Uromastyx pretty soon, not sure what species. Any tips on telling the difference between them?

Color and pattern are good indicators. You can look them up online.

here in the UK we have slowworms, they're just like gimli but pretty small. i think that legless lizards are super cool, and it's great to see someone make videos about so many reptiles, including legless lizards!

There is a mata mata turtle thats going on 50 years old named Lynda hidden in a hidden gem of an aquatic pet store on Chicago ave in Minneapolis Minnesota called Aqualand . Super cool and definitely worth checking out that mind boggling creature . She was just left in a box on the doorstep of the store so they took her in, custom built her a tank once she outgrew every other one . With her (and her appetite) in the showroom nothing goes to waste!
Bloopers are much easier to watch now! Thanks Clint (& everyone!)

My understanding is that for most reptiles a goldfish here and there is ok , just shouldn't be fed goldfish all the time.

Are they forbidden because they are threatened? I know that European species are forbidden to keep, but is the same about foreign wild-caught? Generally is there any substantial hobby in France? I don't hear much out of France. For example in the major reptile shows such as in Hamm French vendors are comparatively few, even though the country has a large population.
