Where do I get specimens? (Q&A)

[@duckman2487]

Saw this guy on TikTok and started watching his content it’s very cool. Kinda obsessed

[@hotstuff9871]

same

[@elisabethrufli4652]

Same here, I love the free education👍🏼

[@user472_]

Same

[@dafatcat9653]

Same

[@theinternaut1991]

Absolutely same yo

[@Cloveis]

It’s pretty niche, but I’m a collection manager at Northern Michigan University and we have a large endo/ecto parasite collection if you’re interested in showing that off! They sure are funky

[@bobjohnson2775]

Just found your stuff and I love it. I’m imagining your channel in the future being something like NileRed but with animal specimens. Keep up the good work and good things will come!

[@astyra3400]

when you talked about how museums aren't being used reminded me of one of my favorite shows called Mysteries at the Museum which sadly isn't airing anymore but it really used museum collections to jump back in time and teach you really cool history

[@josephmc950]

Would love to hear the nat geo & Disney stories!

[@hotstuff9871]

!! hell yeah

[@NoveraGalaxy]

I think he might be from the show weird but true on disney +

[@princessleiaorgana7238]

He's from weird but true where he did a show with his sister. It's was very informative and my kids and myself loved it!

[@anthonyleblanc8915]

My kids and I loved it too. So much so that when I found this channel, I got super excited, showed my 7 year old (who loves Weird But True and Animalogic) who got excited that it was the same guy, and we binged as much of his videos as we could.

[@JoyfulNerd400]

I love that you sound like you truly have such a passion for animals, dead or not, it’s super awesome to see that in people, that they are truly excited about and love something they teach/do

[@Alaska_Gal]

My son is in school to become a paleontologist & has found some pretty cool specimens on digs. He was also just recommended for an internship at our Natural History Museum.

[@craigsamarooo7466]

finally another person interested in paleontology, most of my life I've been really interested in paleontology but now this topic (this youtube channel's topic) also greatly interests me anyways good luck to your son, best wishes!

[@kirstinrodriguez833]

This is the best channel I have come across in idk how long. So nice to watch something cool and interesting and yeah not much talked about. Super informative and interesting

[@manfelt2959]

This guy is soo cool!. Not gonna lie, i've never expected a face like this with the vibes and voice he has😂. New subscriber

[@raihidara]

Just wanted to let you know that your show was extremely influential on my son's interest in science. Now that I've come across your channel I'll have to show him as well!

[@DaennyZeppeli]

sick, dude! I'm about to study marine ecosystems and fishing sciences in Hamburg, I hope I too get to see such large collections of specimens

[@raisisset1]

Hey! Just wanted to say that I think you are doing a great job! I learn so much from you and share it as well. Thank you!

[@khalidalotaibi1072]

I’ve just discovered your channel. I’ve always been fascinated by animals and biology. Your videos are great and based on this one it seems you’re too =)

[@KimiHayashi]

I can listen to this guy for hours everyday

[@realityjunky]

In general, museums have copyright privilege over their specimens and often charge fees and/or shared citation in publications.

[@itsgonnabeanaurfromme]

Shared citation is always a must when you use someone else's stuff

[@christiangrant2931]

@@itsgonnabeanaurfromme yeah, but is credit really due simply for owning something, I understand the importance of being able to track down specimen for peer review and transparency purposes especially in science, but why should that be behind a pay wall when the goal is the advancement of collective human knowledge, it only serves to actively make research more difficult. This is an issue with academic literature in general.

[@brittyvegas9482]

I love your content...every since I seen your first video, which I believe was a Speedrun, and because I went to school for animal biology I subscribed right away and have literally went thru and watched all your other videos. Keep up the good work

[@brianbeatty6152]

I only found your channel, and I think it’s great! I’m a vertebrate paleontologist and comparative anatomist, and I’d love to see more. If you ever need help with access to collections, or for suggestions of specimens to see, let me know.

[@RealGuyNiche]

Keep going my friend you are doing a great job 👍🏻 I really enjoy watching your videos

[@morse____4929]

Hey! you don’t have a fish face! You got this! Love your content! Thank you 🙏

[@craigsamarooo7466]

I find this job really fascinating! I think i might look into it in the future. Also i really love your videos keep up the good work!

[@abbasja1]

Discovered your channel recently. You make really fascinating content!

[@prsimoibn2710]

New subscriber here, keep teaching us about osteology, we rooting for you 🩻🍻

[@jacelight4350]

Talking about how science museums work is so so cool! I’m currently studying to be a conservator for art museums- I’ve always wondered if there’s an equivalent in science museums. Would it be the collections manager?

[@one-seventh]

Yes. I am one in a large insect collection in Africa.

[@megasocky]

Natural science conservation! Im also working for fish and plants

[@AudreyStar17]

New Subscriber here, so glad your shorts popped up in my feed! Love your stuff. Gonna watch a lot more (and show my kids!). I was wondering... Do they not preserve things in formaldehyde anymore (or did they ever?)? Or am I a crazy person?

[@jannatulferdouse2703]

We like this guy for free educational purposes

[@Notiravgsarah]

The giant squid is at the Smithsonian’s Natural History Museum in DC! It was totally rad to see

[@emieneameh1662]

His pronunciations are so cute honestly

[@Minturvogel3570]

?????

[@clean.parker]

There is a small building behind my workplace. Every night there is a chonky toad hiding under the stucco, and it's always in the same spot. I stop to say hello every time I see her, even knowing she could care less about me. It's what I do.

[@nagichan3920]

I saw your videos on IG and i went to your youtube real fast because your content is sooooo interesting like i never get bored 😊 and i saw your face in previous videos already😂 (ps: you’re very cute and pretty) overall you’re amazing :)

[@pan_man69]

A person from Delaware happy you started posting

[@rogerminnick6470]

My favorite animal is tied between a backswimmer and a wepspinner

[@rygzynbrothers3930]

Somehow this channel helped me to identify in a skull in the middle of no where thank you

[@haiman4962]

Ok this is awesome. On the side note, his eyes match his beanie.

[@birdiful6909]

My science teacher taught us abt dichotomus keys and other identifying.. things. Yeah I should've watched this when it was uploaded

[@benjaminhammerle7298]

I actually started with wet Fish specimens because of you're videos My most beautiful one is defenetly my Betta

[@eertikrux666]

“I have access to all animal specimens” Sounds like a movie villain

[@pulkitverma8104]

Love from INDIA 🇮🇳THANK YOU FOR FUTURE GUIDENCE

[@brandonmckittrick2822]

I collect skulls and oddities. I get most of my stuff from oddities stores, ebay, oddities marketplace on facebook and even thrift stores.

[@pocketmarcy6990]

There is indeed a giant squid preserved and on display at the Smithsonian, or at least there was when I went in 2016

[@megasocky]

This is cool! Im also studying horticulture and want to get into general conservation for all things natural science! Still thinking if i should do mammals or fishes edit: im specifically doing fisheries and wildlife conservation as a minor and hort as a major

[@SchechterGuides]

Thanks for all the great information. Have you gotten to work with live species in your past?

[@creapy2366]

I want to be a marine biologist and thats why I like and appreciate your content :)

[@Call-me-Al]

RIP, I am so sorry.

[@Call-me-Al]

@@thespectrum630 you are aware of that you live on the same planet they do, right? And that you will suffer from the same plastic water.

[@peterwolf8092]

Three Times I wanted to hit the like button and realized: I already liked it 😂

[@jamesfleming7952]

The giant squid is in the Natural History Museum in London. I don't know if it's on display because the last time i went there, they didn't have it, but i'm going next year so i hope to see it then

[@TJMS]

The squid in NHM London is called Archie and is part of the Spirit collection in the basement. It's normally not open to the public, but you can book a spot in the behind the scenes spirit collection tour to see it, alongside a ton of preserved wet specimens. You even get to see Darwin's collection too!

You sound and your energy is like destin from smarter everyday.

I live in the country, in the middle of little Delaware ♥️

[@10beebo]

flashbacks to bio classes when u mentioned the dichotomous key holy shit lol

[@gavincross8802]

I don’t think American toads are a boring favorite animal, I grew up around them, so i love them, I used to catch them and ask my mom if I could keep them as a pet

[@aeryn6275]

Wonderful video! You’re a super likeable and charismatic guy- you should make a podcast! Also, you have the same speaking pattern as Jacob Sharpe; are you Canadian by any chance?

[@Circusmaid]

My questions are- Name? Age? Profession? Marital status???

[@peppiplayz3374]

I kinda wanna know how you do the wet specimens like what is the liquid is it water or something idk I just wanna know

[@minibeetle3189]

You’ve sparked this amazing new interest in me, I’m so glad you popped up in my recommended!

[@steveburger01]

bro asked for a face reveal and just straight up got it

[@jasondas9056]

Can you do more videos on marine life animal pls?

I strive for a collection as large as his😭❤️

[@Gordicockie]

Your videos are very good and look very high quality, man I love them

[@hotstuff9871]

omg! Please tell us more about the national geographic videos for disney!!!

[@samuelhaze8772]

Link to frog video 🤣

[@galacticbananas482]

Do you have to pay to get access to the specimens? Or do you have free access?

[@bubjubb]

Let’s start a petition to allow you to tour / film in the Large Mammal Warehouse in LA. It would be amazing to see that blue whale skull!!!

[@galacticbananas482]

Would love to hear about your time working in scientific film!

[@maddiesavage8612]

Have you been to the museum of osteology in Oklahoma City? It’s sooo fun & they sell skulls :))

[@romigazit2157]

Could you provide us with a good link to a dichotomous key?

[@theskyobserver]

A collab video with Emily Graslie would be GREAT....

[@hotstuff9871]

this video is epic! thank you for making content :)

[@yawarakai3003]

What’s the oldest specimen in the collection?

[@confusedisland8439]

I say super wow!

[@tayloralvidrez4342]

What type of cancer do you have? How did you contract it? How is the kemotherapy going? I'll pray for you

[@eldepe6556]
