Similar thing happened to the Deep Sea Anglerfish. The females are about the size of an American football, the males are about the size of your thumbnail. They are so different in size and look that it was actually believed they were different species. Even weirder in mating the males will attach themselves to the females and live out the rest of their lives as a parasite. It has been observed that one female can have up to three males attached. This works well, especially in the nutrient-poor deep sea, because it's a damn good source of sperm while saving energy for the dad.

4:35 During the last Ice Age, there was a widespread group of condor-like birds called teratorns that looked like condors but had beaks that were less equipped for scavenging but perhaps more equipped for hunting.

Not gonna lie, I didn't notice it at first but I just noticed the queen parasite theme when you started talking about the ants and it made me love this video that much more.

Goddammit, hooked me with the ant facts and segued to the ad copy in one breath. You won this round, Hood Nature.

[@andersjjensen]

Yeah! I was like "wha?.. oh!.. smoooth man... I'll let it slide and actually watch the ad out of respect!"

@Millennial Smark Yup. Hood boy got us all so good we're politely asking him to do it again! :P

Thanks.

[@EnkeliJaPerkele]

I live in a Big Ass City in Italy, and the park by my house has sooooo many nutrias, and I just can't be angry about it. I just love them so much, and considering part of my job is to walk dogs in that park, the entertainment a dog that has NEVER seen a nutria can provide is enough to love all nutrias indiscriminately, even if I know that one day the canal shore will collapse under my feet because of their dens, and I'll end up in some of the most disgusting water possible XD

I officially love Sea Robins now. That’s cool as sh!t. This is just 1 reason why I watch you. You introduce me to bizarre new animals I love. Tongue Eating Louse? I love and hate it!

As a cat parent I can also say that my 3 year old cat does the asking for help thing every. Single. Day. She’s the most demanding little Angel I’ve ever loved

[@knwalz2345]

That's crazy, because I was scared of accidentally killing a softshell, because of how fragile they feel. They feel so soft and fleshy.

Really hope you talk about the Mantis Shrimp and along with people keeping them as pets.

i like how it just went from a pelican having the worst possible injury they could get to a random homeless pinguin

[@silenceofallthings]

I just discovered your videos and channel, like 4 hours ago, and I can't believe I've been living without this awesome channel! You're style is different to Attenborough's, but you are absolutely on the same level - it's engaging, funny, factual, and geared towards a modern world and consumption. I seriously hope someone discovers you and funds your work - it would be huge and bring in newer audicences.

He started on tik tok before they kicked him off. Or at least it seems like it cuz his page is missing now, people still repost his videos on there. But that's where some of his followers came from.

[@admart5312]

Learnt a new thing. When I saw the nutria, I thought it’d be an otter (that’s what nutria means in Spanish), but with those incisors it looked more like a beaver. Well, I checked and I learned that in the English language you only call “nutria” that weird South American giant rodent I didn’t even knew existed (coypu). Interesting. Weird, though.

[@yamihikarilightdark9]

I was terrified when I learnt that pelicans and even seagulls will basically eat anything and anyone they can. >_>; The seagull swallowing a hare whole haunts me.

[@blahorgaslisk7763]

When I was a kid my parents used to fish. I remember one time when they had caught a huge cod that my father cleaned up on the beech. He always did this a fair bit from the boat as the moment he started the seagulls would turn up. Later we sat and watched as a seagull tried to swallow the head of that huge cod. It must have weighed almost as much as the seagull and yet it eventually managed to get it down. It couldn't fly however and didn't seem to really like the situation. Don't remember what happened to it but I will never forget the pain it went through swallowing that head. At another time we actually had a seagull following our boat from island to island for about a week. It was easy to recognize as it had one eye ripped out. It was pretty well behaved, for a seagull, but still couldn't keep quiet when my father cleaned out a few fish, and immediately it had fierce competition for the food. Not the smartest birds on a per individual level, but it's probably good for the species. No matter who finds food the most fit will fight their way to it. Natural selection at it's finest.

[@m0ri461]

This reminds me of deer tbh. Same vibes, they will literally eat small rodents or even baby birds if theyre on the ground. Theyre omnivorous and will eat whatevers in front of them whem grazing. Saw a video of one reaching into a birds nest and stealing the baby birds one time. Horrific. A lot of animals are so much scarier than youd ever imagine.

[@456creeper]

The sea robin is the single scariest animal I’ve ever seen. It makes me shiver just seeing them walk.

[@crazybobby14]

Cool choice of music at: 2:14 ! I wasn't expecting such an awesome selection for your educational video. Music is : Metroid Prime - Parasite Queen. My fav remix of it is (MindShift Trap Remix).

[@exidy-yt]

That messed up pelican was something I am surprised dosen't happen fairly regularly considering how they try to swallow live prey who have claws and beaks that are invested in getting out of that pouch before death takes them, but it was impressive to see the result of a successful escape! JFC, not only are you rapidly becoming one of my top 5 channels to view, you even featured a game that I might actually want to try on my phone presuming it's not brutally pay-to-win, cos homie don't play dat.

[@DarthSidian]

Pelicans rarely put something in their mouth that they clearly cannot actually eat. When that does happen, though, the consequences are disastrous.

[@4nn13h7]

That water snake is amazing. I had no idea anything like that even exists.

[@MsAnimefan95]

Shoulda stuck to trying to eat a capybara. At least that would have just left the pelican questioning his life choices in sadness rather than pain.
