We got to the bit with the toadlets when my husband paused the video and asked me to explain how their jumps differ from the Leiopelmatid frogs that I got to help study in college. I gave him a nice, long explanation, and then we hit play only to find that that exact Leiopelma study was where Ze Frank was going next (and of course he explained it so much better). Brachycephalus fully deserve their win here, but I'm glad that more of the world will get a laugh from our beloved belly flopping Leiopelma 😂

[@exmohobobonobo]

I learn so much from his videos-his slime mold videos especially. I love learning about everything and yet never encountered such detailed information about animals. He’s such a good teacher and so hilarious. Ze Frank’s mind must be an amazing place-his gray matter is technicolor.

[@memesimp3216]

I rarely ever say an animal got screwed over by evolution, but those tiny frogs who can’t even hear their species mating calls is an evolutionary middle finger.

[@ryanmccampbell7]

Eh it probably helps them not be eaten or something. Guess there's no free lunch

[@syahirah5244]

Koalas have it bad too. They can't grow new teeth when the old one wears out and eventually die of starvation.

[@neuralmute]

I'd say that pandas are pretty screwed too, except that they aren't. Because they just don't for whatever reason. Extinction by loss of interest in sex. Poor pandas.

[@QuantumWaltz]

@@neuralmute From what I understand, it seems to be that bamboo is such a terrible nutrient source that their bodies can't sustain estrus for much longer than a short 24-hour period... once a year. And, being that estrus also makes female mammals crankier, it's entirely possible for the female to kick the male's ass before any babymaking gets to happen. And wild pandas refuse to eat anything BUT bamboo. Other bamboo-reliant carnivorans are either much smaller, or have a wider diet, or both. Giant pandas just made the behavioral jump from an omnivorous diet to bamboo-only WAY too quickly and recently for their evolution to effectively keep up. Panda breeding programs often feed them "panda cake," a specially-formulated nutrient bar (which the pandas go gonzo over, so they do find it quite delicious despite a severe bamboo habit) that gives them a much wider estrus cycle. It's still only a few days a year, but enough to conceive relatively reliably, at least.

@@DaSauceDatsBoss 4 years, give or take. I remember being bummed out that he left, but remaining subbed for easy access to prior videos. Then, one day - a blessing!

[@BookishNaiad]

No one makes me laugh like ZeFrank ... even the ads are hilarious: "They don't ship you a dead body--you can bring your own" 💀💀

[@zellspeak]

Honest question: is there actually a "Jerry"? Or is Jerry a running gag? In any case - editing and scripts are brilliant. Big kudos to the whole team, how ever many of you there are. :)

[@dadab22]

I love this style! Just as funny as the last awards vid, but with the added explanations on what is going on, it becomes even more interesting and funny.

When I heard about Japanese bees and hornets I was expecting to hear about the bee-balling technique they use to kill invading hornets, but instead learned they plaster shit over their porch. Was not disappointed.

[@The-Opium-Den]

Yep, same here. Pretty neat they have more than just one way to repel unwanted guests.

[@tammylaronde8593]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m dying! The frogs: Leap. Thud! 😆 This was the best awards show that you will ever watch.

[@bsgenius22]

I love all of your amazing videos and I can't wait for the next!❤

[@betterchapter]

This is the best kind of awards show.

[@danielaverin802]

There are several reasons not to bring food with you when watching ZeFrank, but I still do. Every time. I don't care, this is my favorite channel ever. Thank you ZeFrank!

[@Ka-kai]

It's totally worth it

[@michaelccopelandsr7120]

Thank you, Ze. Bringing smiles to people is truly noble work.

[@LegionCommander]

Love this channel so much. One of the brightest places on KZbin. I've laughed so many times on so many videos. Bravo

[@Kroggnagch]

Lmfao... “ha bubra boobra bubra” that fucking pheasant piece had my fucking dying

[@GustSergeant]

It's not a pheasant however, it is a Sage Grouse, and the actual sound they make is wild

[@bruoche]

8:08 To be fair, that's not the worst thing someone has done from being stopped from going to art school

Best college application statement ever: If I can't attend classes here in the fall, guess I'll just have to invade Russia over the winter

[@rhpets_25]

Freaking made my morning start off on so much laughter. Truly a treasure of a video and channel 💖

[@brendanjackson2416]

Ze you are a God amongst mortals. Thank you for your perpetual levity.

[@lisar3944]

I am consistently astonished by the insane level of quirky detail presented in Ze Frank's videos. The humor and giggles are a tasty cherry on top! No joke, these are the. best. nature. videos. EVAHHHHHHHH

[@lachlanwelsh5880]

I often wonder what David Attenborough would make of his wonderful work… I have a hunch he would really enjoy it.

Finally someone who understands the true physical attributes needed to play a tiddlywinks shot successfully

[@Mercurio2435]

These never cease to fascinate *and* amuse.

[@DaisyOfDeath]

Love the thank yous and citations

[@AlteraLin]

I've learned more from ZeFrank than biology class.

[@WindFireAllThatKindOfThing]

The jokes in the main body are fine, but that he puts citations at the end makes this _authoritative_

[@Master10k2]

Where else are you going to learn about the various amphibians that gave up on hearing & balance.

[@jayceewedmak9524]

💯 % ZeFrank for getting scientists/researchers work out to the public! Thank you you amazing man ♥ 🤗

[@miss3305]

Brilliant and hilarious AF! Thank you for making learning fun. I have watched everything you do since I saw your first video. I have never been disappointed.

[@jubi400]

So awesome! Thanks for all the laughs and education!

[@tanya6243]

Ze, you have truly outdone yourself with this video! I was shocked, amazed, repulsed and crying with laughter during the "Fun Fashion on a Budget" section. Bravo!

[@angiki9988]

That's more meerkat anatomy than I ever wanted to know.

[@jp-hh9xq]

Glad we watched this one after dinner!!! Haha Thanks for another great video!

[@Alice_Walker]

So good! Thanks!! 💜
