Saving axolotls in the heart of Mexico City | WILD HOPE

[@sharonkaczorowski8690]

The wonderful thing about projects like this is the long term value for all the wildlife in these waters and the humans who also live near, enjoy and work on those waters.

[@beyondthesea18]

Thank you for not using a voiceover for the Spanish speakers. Great to hear everyone’s true voice and great episode.

[@critiqueofthegothgf]

this gives me hope. i am optimistic that some time in the distant future we can look back and remember when the axolotl's wild population were in the mere double digits per sqkm, rather than the thousands, post-restoration.

[@tedbomba6631]

Excellent video ! Thanks to the scientists, the Nuns and to everyone else involved in this effort to bring back these two salamander species.

[@theneousa]

*Absolutely! This excellent video highlights the collaborative efforts of scientists, conservationists, and all involved in the mission to revive these two salamander species.*

[@annefoley6950]

Did I mention that I love everything about this series? I'm learning new things, hearing new voices, and seeing new stories.

[@oakmaiden2133]

People like Claudia are the only chance the earth has to remain a viable habitat for all. The earth is my mother, she is my nourishment and my shelter. Treat her with reverence.

[@monicasong427]

The most powerful act to create and preserve viable habitats is by eliminating dead animal products. The loss of wild areas to animal agriculture is the leading cause of the current mass extinction of vital native. wildlife. Considered the most comprehensive analysis between farming and the environment, without meat and dairy consumption, global farm land use could be reduced by 75%. An area equivalent to the U.S., China, EU, and Australia combined---and still feed the world. (Source: Oxford University, 2018- Reducing foods environmental impacts through producers & consumers) A win-win for all.

Cried tears of wonder, joy, & gratitude from the intro to the end 🙏

It is very important for us modern day Mexicans to able to educate ourselves and realize that we come from indigenous backgrounds and with that too understand and work together to conserve the beautiful land that has cradled our very ancestors. Together it is necessary that we heal both ourselves and our environment from the grip that colonialism has had on us.

[@sirmeowthelibrarycat]

😲 What a wonderful story of how these extraordinary and fascinating creatures are returning to the wild.Such a powerful example for others to follow as they work so hard to protect our environment and the lives of the creatures around us 💐👏!

[@monicasong427]

Let's do our part by eliminating dead animal products.

[@rajr1032]

Wonderful documentary! A unique collaboration to save a rare species; and message of hope to reverse at least some of the alarming extinction of multipe animals species, blamed on human encroachment and climate change.

[@teresahaugen3974]

Over 30 years ago I had 2 of these little guys as pets. ❤

[@chrisginoc]

How long did they live?

[@animemusicluver1]

I'm a simple human, I see an axolotl on the thumbnail. I click

[@monicasong427]

Let's be more simple by eating the source of all essential nutrients from plants and fungi. Thereby, showing respect toward fellow animals.

[@marjoe32]

My homeland is full of diverse nature. If not for mexico and the americas no tomatoes in the world or corn. We must protect out natural resources ABOVE ALL

[@monicasong427]

Absolutely. The best way to protect is by going vegan. Animal products are a class 1 carcinogen. Eliminating dead animal products is a win-win for all.

[@erikm8372]

Yes, México is a true wonderland of nature… I live twenty minutes away in San Diego! But I have been many times! It’s even more special because México is part of the top most-biodiverse countries in the world, including total species of plants, fungi & all animals-Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Perú, Venezuela, México, USA, Australia, Papúa New Guinea, Indonesia, Philippines, China, India, Malaysia, South Africa, Madagascar & Democratic Republic of the Congo. 👍🏽

[@walkingbacktogardening381]

What beautiful rewilding story wow, blown away.❤

[@peasinourthyme5722]

Love this series!

[@kanealoha]

Well done!

[@DamisDamisDamisillo]

Xochimilca enamorada de Xochimilco, nada más es lo que soy; quizá en unos años consiga chamba en una chinampa, no solo pasear por los canales de acá, vivirlos más de cerca, darles y recibir. Hace unas décadas el gobierno decidió quitarles tierras a quienes somos de aquí, mi abuela pasó por eso, le forzaron a “intercambiar” una chinampa por tierras (igual en Xochimilco) sin valor agroecológico ni de vivienda; 14 pueblos originarios, con historia de desarrollo organizativo y agrícola lleno de vida, no solo chinampas, también milpas, confrontados por gigantes manos de macroempresas, estado-nación mexicano e intereses yankees, llevaron a detrimento las aguas, aire, orografía, flora y fauna de donde nací y crecí. Claro que hay errores, el pasado no era un paraíso tampoco, pero los paisajes ya no siempre se parecen a las poesías de Fernando Celada ni a los cuentos de mi Familia.

[@adnanbashir4304]

Great work

[@shawneldridge4465]

Awesome this is

[@monicasong427]

Let's create awesomeness by going vegan. There is no greater destruction to life than our needless exploitation of fellow animals.

[@xamishia]

Great docu, I love the writing and narration in this series. Note: you could have mentioned the probable effect of Minecraft and its axolotls, if nothing else then for the extra clicks it would have gotten you thanks to the algorithms... In fact, you should try adding "Minecraft" to the video's tags or whatever anyway, can only help!

[@oldschoolman1444]

Gives me hope to see wildlife habits restored.

[@artworld9799]

Great video👍👍

[@theneousa]

*Absolutely! Salamanders are indeed fascinating creatures often associated with myth and legend. Their unique characteristics and mysterious nature make them truly captivating*

[@critiqueofthegothgf]

if I'm correct, axolotls never really had natural predators thus the introduction of invasive species resulting in devastating population loss. the lack of any natural defenses means they are free game for any predator. it's insidious

[@TobyLizard]

I wish I had a title like salamander of the gods

[@monicasong427]

Let's try to eliminate dead animal products. Disease ridden animal agriculture is the most destructive industry to all native biodiversity. Let's eat the source of all essential nutrients from plants and fungi and show respect toward fellow animals.

[@blessedbeauty2293]

- What is the difference between axolotl && achoque? I don't see any difference. I'm confused.

[@TF2FactsAndTips]

Google it

[@IndridCold-v7i]

¿Cual es la diferencia entre un lobo y un coyote? Mismo género, diferentes especies....

“Specimens from Mexican lake were sent alive to France by order of Marshal Forey, Bazaine's successor as commander-in-chief of the French expeditionary force to Mexico, and arrived at the Paris Jardin d'Acclimatation in 1863. Some which were passed on to the Jardin des Plantes bred there soon after, and the innumerable axolotls kept in aquariums all over Europe are believed to be their descendants. The first examples to reach this country were exhibited in the London Zoological Gardens in 1864. The normal axolotl is a dark grey or black creature. But white axolotls, albinos of a creamy white or pale flesh colour, with eyes and gills of a beautiful red, are often seen in aquariums. They are said to be all descendants of an albino male which appeared as a freak among a normal brood in Paris in 1866, and which, paired with normal females in 1867 and 1868, gave life to numerous white offspring which by selection have become fixed as a permanent race without, according to Professor Vaillant, “ -Country Life, Volume 24 Year 1908

Francia se robó varios ejemplares del ajolote durante el gobierno de porfirio diaz y a cambio dio carpas “supuestamente para el bienestar de las personas que viven en Xochimilco para que tuviesen algo para sobrevivir “ , lo que no dijeron es que la carpa o mojarra se come a los ajolotes, el gesto noble que francia hizo fue para asegurarse de que el ajolote desapareciera para siempre mientras que en francia laboratorios siguen hasta el día de hoy tratando de replicar las maravillas de esta deidad y gracias al ajolote la medicina moderna ha avanzado a pasos agigantados. La codicia de francia siempre ha sido inhumana, sólo volteen a ver Haití, y los países de África donde se cosecha el chocolate para la unión europea, los que hacen el trabajo viven en la miseria y los que no hacen absolutamente nada se dan el lujo de decir que ellos producen el mejor chocolate del mundo, para los que no saben el chocolate es de México al igual que la nochebuena, la vainilla, el jitomate, el maíz y una infinidad de productos básicos, pero cuando la gente pálida invadió las Américas se robaron y siguen robándonos.

[@seyer-leinadodnavo4250]

Austria need to return the crown of our great Tlatoani Moctezuma to Mexico so we can feel complete once more, cortez k i l l e d Moctezuma after torching him and burn his feet to get the locations of the Aztecs treasures, but austria is refusing to return the penacho to their people even when they know it’s belongs to the Aztecs, the crown of Moctezuma should be in the rightful place, I mention this because the axolote is Moctezuma twin brother.

[@napalmholocaust9093]

100 left in the lake and near extinct. **wanna buy a bottle of them for a cough? I blessed it.. This book in my hand says;- take it all. Don't worry about it. I'll fix it later. -god

[@DanielMartinez-qq2qy]

They don't actually kill the achoces for the cough syrup lol they literally take a bit of slime coat for it which doesn't hurt it at all and it regenerates anyway, thus an endless supply of respiratory medicine so yeah they're keeping them from becoming extinct while also helping kids with respiratory problems...Those nuns deserve mad respect

[@SpecialSP]

Wonderful video … I have a request. When you use subtitles, rather than a voice translation, I read them and miss any activities that are going on. It's very frustrating. Could you use voice, instead?

[@IndridCold-v7i]

Jajaja, gringos are sooo lazy, you must learn to be multi task, stop complaining.

[@AWHM]

Im not feeling the voice over person.

If one eats dead animal products, don't you dare call yourself a conservationist. (Former rancher, Howard Lyman)

[@ToughieTheRabbsFringeLimbedTre]

So people who literally save species shouldn’t be conservationists, because they eat meat?(I know the effects of eating meat has on the world, it just seems a little wrong to single out people who are literally saving species, instead of focusing on the meat companies)

[@ToughieTheRabbsFringeLimbedTre]

Again I’m not saying we shouldn’t support non meat alternatives, it just feels wrong to single out people who are literally saving species.

[@monicasong427]

@ToughieTheRabbsFringeLimbedTre Animal agriculture is the most ecologically destructive to all native biodiversity. Does it make sense to participate in the most threatening act towards the species one is attempting to conserve? All while, animal products are a class 1 carcinogen for humans.

[@monicasong427]

@ToughieTheRabbsFringeLimbedTre The documentary stated anthropogenic climate change is the greatest threat. Disease ridden animal agriculture creates more greenhouse gas emissions than the entire world's transportation sector combined. (WHO, 2006) To make matters worse, the loss of wild areas to animal agriculture is the leading cause of the current mass extinction of vital native. wildlife. Considered the most comprehensive analysis between farming and the environment, without meat and dairy consumption, global farm land use could be reduced by 75%. An area equivalent to the U.S., China, EU, and Australia combined---and still feed the world. (Source: Oxford University, 2018- Reducing foods environmental impacts through producers & consumers)

[@ToughieTheRabbsFringeLimbedTre]

@@monicasong427 I’m saying we shouldn’t call conservationists(a relatively small group of people in the whole grand scheme of things) not conservationists just because they eat meat, they are literally helping save species

extinct in the wild, is not extinct.
