of course he peed in the snow

[@AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH]

ITS THE FOLK :0

[@kaibahr-tc7kb]

NO LITTLE TIMMY, THE SNOW IS YELLOW!!!!!!!!

[@22dunix3]

Spoilers bro 😔

[@Jbr-yd8yx]

SPOILER ALLERT GEESE

[@schana96]

There's a woman in the town I live in who made a fur coat exclusively made from animals killed on accident. Took her something like 15 years to finish it. Amongst other reasons, she did it to show how ridiculous it is to mass produce such things.

[@Lucifersfursona]

That’s one of the coolest things I’ve ever heard. Things should not be mass produced in these ways.

[@AlienTraveller9]

like number 222🎉

[@LifesNeverHumDrum]

See that’s awesome. Processing animals for your own use is not the issue, it’s the commodification of it.

[@desireestoddard4219]

I’m your 444th like. That is crazy!!! Thank you so much for sharing

[@scarecrow_irl]

really appreciate you speaking up about the fur industry, i try to avoid it in general but i had no idea how horrible it was. super entertaining and educational video thanks maya :)

[@InsertYourself1]

simp

[@IsiahTomas]

Yay. Another justified reason to not like Beyonce. Sweet Christmas.

[@vemteryd4416]

Yeah, the last part of the video really hit me with the for one, cage sizes and especially the way they kill animals to preserve the furs

[@bbcbankruptcy]

@@IsiahTomaswhat-

[@LordVader1094]

@@bbcbankruptcy What, did you forget she's not a good person?

[@tikayscake2416]

The electrocution method to preserve the fur is so gnarly for no reason, I didn’t expect it to be that bad Thanks for spreading awareness with Alveus

[@Tomatnaufmaugn]

another common method, at least with minks is a gas chamber, fun times! /s

[@Mimiwi]

yeah I literally teared up at that I had no clue... fucking horrible

[@096MaxikinG096]

lot of chickens are stunned with electricity before getting their heads chopped of or neck cut, sooo... I guess just stop eating animals and wearing them.

[@Mimiwi]

@@096MaxikinG096 That's a great point. That's why we meat eaters should be aware of where the meat we eat comes from, how they were raised and slaughtered. I love animals and perservation but I unfortunatly also really enjoy meat, so I try to only buy meat from my local butcher, that raises the animals himself and uses ''humane'' methods of killing (and the great thing is it is usually way cheaper than a big supermarket chain)

[@0Pardofelis]

@@096MaxikinG096 no thanks im going to continue to eat my cultures foods.

[@koalafication1018]

I am glad that the foxes actually enjoy it, unlike the geese pool party

[@LifesNeverHumDrum]

The most successful a kiddie pool purchase has been at Alveus, at least for a “Maya has fun for once” installment. Stompy’s pool is in a league of its own 😂

[@wooshii3719]

15 - 40 foxes is insane... The fashion industry is starting to gradually move away from animal fur but the use of replacements (artificial, natural alternatives) is still vastly low in the grand scheme of things. Huge respect to you for mentioning this after the wholesome show of fox snow vibes, you're doing amazing work thank you

[@haramstuferot6393]

Trueee❤

[@cassiopeaknack]

That’s kinda crazy I live in Canada but I don’t know anywhere you can get real fur other than like a thrift shop with old coats, anywhere else they just don’t sell fur because no one wants it. I thought it was rare nowadays but I guess that’s just around here

[@NaturalBornLoserrrr]

@@cassiopeaknack im also in canada and i dont think i can ever remember seeing something being sold using real fur here either? i wonder if there's a reason for that, maybe im just ignorant to it?

[@cassiopeaknack]

@@NaturalBornLoserrrr I’ve looked it up and it’s completely legal and still being sold but I think it’s only sold in stores specifically about that and those are target at the upper class. So I think it’s mainly rich people buying them but I may be wrong. I will say I’ve never seen them at any store that I can enough money to shop at.

[@rowenla]

@@cassiopeaknack Canada goose uses fur in their hood and sometimes linning, depending on the model. They are super popular here in Europe, and I am assuming Canada too.

[@lilsusievert]

how do you not cry 24/7 seeing all of these babies have fun i literally cry for no reason at every video help

[@ENA-7URR0N]

Same though, I would cry every time I went into work getting to see all the adorable babies living their happy lives

[@thenonfurry]

lol ❤

[@kvtys]

Dior and Louis Vuitton are two huge brands that still use fur. Thankfully, the Kering group (who owns gucci and saint laurent) has recently stopped using fur and replaced it with faux. It was an awesome win and proof that change is possible. Keep your voices loud.

[@Salmonella4Skin]

Truly heartbreaking to hear some of the knowledge dropped at the end of this, but good on you and Alveus for making this more well known

[@arrowofyarrow]

just wanted to say that youre part of what inspired me to start studying ecology and forest conservation. like ive always loved nature but seeing the work you do helped me realize id love to work on conserving it, so thank you ❤

[@phe.mp3]

I knew that buying fur is terrible, but I didn’t realize just how horrific the industry is. Thanks so much-I came for cute foxes and I left learning a lot.

[@dalzmc]

It was a fun video for the most part but wow the information about the fur trade was really sobering. Thanks for informing us about that and while I've always disapproved of fur coats I will look at them in an even worse light now. The way the foxes are killed is horrible.

[@lazylemon4081]

I love how you used the snowdin music! Plus its made by Toby *Fox* haha, I see what you did there ;)

[@mayahiga]

Ty for noticing haha

[@lazylemon4081]

@@mayahiga :D

[@realfartsmella]

Maya should buy Flip one of those large silly plants, he deserves it :) And that magazine!

[@danevetts681]

Next maya having fun video should be setting up a party for flip with the plant and magazine included, if it isnt this i will be mildly dissapointed

[@miawatz]

i love the maya has fun for once series omg

[@liamkelly4684]

The maya has fun for once is kinda a misnomer, its really maya puts even more effort into making animals have fun.

[@Paul-gx4zb]

Me too

[@samuellennon1984]

I'm a grown, 28yr old man living on my own. Maya never ceases to brighten my day with her content. Especially after a shit day.

[@Dee_Snuts27]

the footage of those poor foxes in cages and in absolutely terrible conditions made me cry... I didn't know it was that bad. those poor babies

[@twistedofficial]

40 foxes for one coat is just insanity. If people really knew how awful and unnecessary it is they probably wouldn't buy it. Keep spreading awareness :D

[@Forreng]

maya has fun for once has quickly become my favourite series. it's the type of content i need in my life

[@Starlet_Blossom]

Thank you for all the work that you do, to help raise awareness for good causes

[@heatherns624]

thanks for being so educational Maya, and taking care of your sweet animals.

[@ozaffer77]

Snow pool was a nice act glad they liked it. clips of fur trade was really upsetting as well thanks for showing.

[@siarha70]

I really appreciate how you can’t hear any of the chat talking. It makes the video so much better.

[@milkymosquito]

love you spreading the info about the fur trade. i understand why you play into the centrist field, through videos like this it can bridge the message to so many people who wouldn’t know have thought of it! great video and editing as always

[@SarahBuckert]

I love that the music is always video game music

[@johnsharplin]

Just discovered Alveus and Maya, been following fox conservation for a long time and I'm so thankful there are people like this to fight against these horrible practices. Thank you Maya!

[@CheyziEdits]

please never stop with these videos, i am serious i need them for my happiness

[@evelynbigger4617]

I KNEW IT :D I was like “Maya will finally have fun for once :D”

[@Katisobsessed]

Maya, I think you needed 50 more bags of ice.

[@echin9372]

Love how chat is so supportive 😊❤

[@Cyrribrae]

I'm glad you're incorporating educational stuff into these videos, which have been great! Just the right mix of fun editing, public social anxiety, and cute animals experiencing new things :D

[@fyshwick6032]

using the snowdin theme for this video was a nice touch

[@caseyhamm4292]

i love the insanely wholesome content followed by making me cry immediately after. thanks! for real though i will be telling that to people who buy furs because if that doesn’t get them to stop idk what would

[@DPlusStudents]

very nice snow food 🎉

[@RayStunnaaa]

I literally watched this whole stream live and still watched this whole video lol, I loved the snow day 🥺

[@wolfynet]

I hope they love the snow!❤❤❤

[@gr3k3n]

Thank you Maya for everything you're doing for the animals!

[@karlosest7568]

the foxes are definitely my favorite part of the sanctuary, theyre so cute

Foxes are such a sick animal with dog like features but cat like agility 😎

[@MrJLCharbonneau]

Thank you for the education.🙌

Snow fox 🦊❄️

[@hannah1989]

Great video, I’m glad the foxes enjoyed their snow pool! If ppl want more information about the fur industry, there is a good video from a German KZbinr Robert Marc lehmann called Mission: Pelz. It’s in German but the visual explains the situation well enough. Thank you Maya for educating the world about this horrible industry

[@kenji7318]

$15 and 20%, that actually is kinda a killer deal

[@finnmogensen9526]

Congratulations Maya, finally a full "animal-fun" success! 😊

i like when maya has fun for once

[@thothrax5621]

Maya should buy flip the silly large plant

[@mikeoxsmal69]

The hunting part don’t seem too bad tbh, so long as it’s done like other animals that still have stable populations that get hunted for sport.

[@entrophany]

she's kinda cool 'cause she gets her hands dirty and loves animals. Not many tubers/streamers are up to that. Respect

[@bumgy1686]

I setup the stream on my TV for my Parrot and Dog, THEY get to see these streams live while I'm at work. Lucky freaks.

[@samanthaDH]

editor you’re so the best ❤ eta: second to stompy

[@petermoore9504]

Fur farming in the UK was banned over 20 years ago but not import or trade, unfortunately the government did a u-turn on banning trade recently so it goes on.

[@djHVNTER2]

I've never related to Maya harder than seeing a HUGE plant for so cheap and instantly wanting to buy all of them.

[@Serpent6417]

Fox is probably my favourite animal. The vid was very fun 😅

[@GuineaPigEveryday]

3:21 I feel like Maya has gotten a lot lot better at talking to the camera in the store in front of other people. Now she's become an average influencer.

[@leahsdreams]

Love Foxes so much

[@kundo9639]

you aree so amazing for spreading awareness about these horrible industries. Around four years ago I went down a rabbit hole into these topics and it had a huge impact on me going vegan. I have been ever since an advocate of animal rights, they deserve so much better. I love seeing what you do and how much of an impact you´re making on people with your platforms. Also, Feen and Read are really adorable and this was probably on of your biggest successes with a pool party for the animals, they clearly loved the snow. Sending you and all the animals at Alveus lots of love :)

[@BananaInEar009]

Props to whoever is making those segment titles. They are hilarious!

I feel so crazy to ask this but I can’t place the song names! Do you mind filling me in? 😂 I’ve been combing through retro music lists trying to find them!

[@theredfox_1359]

@@krystaloona Of course! The songs are from the Undertale soundtrack. The first track (0:00) is Snowdin Town, the second track (0:57) is Shop, the next track (5:09) is Hotel, the track at 7:36 is Snowy, and the track that starts around 11:30 is Home :) Hope that that helps! The whole soundtrack is amazing, if you haven't played the game or listened to the soundtrack before I would highly recommend giving the whole thing a listen. Hope you have a nice day!

[@HostileAtHeart]

I'd love to see how Winnie reacts to one of those giant therapy balls, the inflated bouncy ones. But there might be a risk of it popping and the animals getting really scared I guess :/ Maybe some kind of improvised parkour trail for the Marmosets where you put bits of Banana purée along the way :)
