Jason might not be far off when he said the hairless raccoon was a chupacabra. According to Wikipedia (which cites the book “Tracking the Chupacabra” by Benjamin Radford, and the article “Disfrazado el chupacabras” by Miried González Rodríguez) “Sightings [of the chupacabra] in northern Mexico and the southern United States have been verified as canids afflicted by mange.” While not a canid, raccoons can be argued to be superficially canid-like, and it’s certainly possible that throughout history some number of people have misidentified hairless raccoons as small chupacabras (other than Jason 😜).

I grew up around elephants in Zimbabwe and while they often would posture with their ears out we would just accept that warning and stop or maybe back out of their pathway a bit while they passed. Even when there were calves with the herds as long as you were calm and didn't come toward them, they left you alone. However, I once had the distinct misfortune of approaching the herd of what was believed to be the largest elephant bull in Zimbabwe (one of the last 'super tusker' elephants) when that bull was in musk. We immediately recognized our mistake and turned around, but like Clint said they want to fight everything during musk. He charged our vehicle for about a kilometer despite us being well away from the herd. Elephants are surprisingly fast for their size and in an old bush jeep in high brush we struggled to get distance between us.

It's like that with most animals. If you leave them alone, they'll leave you alone.

I worked with a tiger in a zoo once. When I saw it in person for the first time I broke out into a cold full body sweat, immediate fight or flight reaction. They are one of those things that you don't realize how big they are until you're less than 4ft away from it. The keepers also had a prior incident where the tiger ripped thru one of its private enclosure fences like it was paper. Beautiful creatures but so terrifying and should absolutely stay in the wild.

[@Barkyfortress]

Tigers are one of the animals that really scare me. Angry gorillas too, but tigers are just different. You can tell by their eyes that they can kill you without reservations...

I remember having that same physical reaction when I, years ago, entered the alligator enclosure at one of our National Zoos and one of the animals started to roar, that deep, deep, loud sound coming from the depth of its throat….at the exact moment I was literally in the doorway. And I immediately felt this primal fear! Which is of course absolutely not logically explainable, since I had lived my whole life in a big city in the Netherlands: impossible to encounter a crocodile or alligator anywhere else than in a zoo… So the effect must have been one of those ‘ingrained fears’ that humans are born with, after centuries of evolution it is STILL there. AMAZING!!

[@Itsabeautifulday3201]

There’s a rescue center near me and they had two tigers ones name was Jasmine and the other Jafar. They have lived a very long life but Jafar passed away,I think,probably two years ago. Jasmine is still there. She’s a white Bengal and is HUGE! She’s pretty old now I believe in her 20s and hilarious to watch. She’s learned that if she doesn’t grab the pieces of chicken and just groans and chatters about it eventually the handler will just give it to her without her, having to put any effort into it. I think they really don’t want her jumping up anymore to get it though. She’s so old. Such a beautiful animal. It’s crazy to only stand a couple feet away from her. Her paws are as big as my head lol

That text on the screen was nonsense. The man's 'calm energy' didn't influence the elephant to be calm, the man's calm energy freaked it out. The elephant probably wondered if he was some kind of bizarre venomous monkey or something.

[@JubioHDX]

@@migarsormrapophis2755 yea im surprised clint didnt mention what the video was saying lmao, elephants dont "read energies" theyre just very used to every other animal in existence high tailing it the other direction when they charge so it was confused💀. They know humans are dangerous so it didnt want to just turn all the way around while the human was still there but it also had no ability to scare the human away either so they were in a stalemate till the elephant decided the man wasnt gonna retaliate if they both just let it go

[@kmhkennedy]

@@JubioHDXyou have to remember that poachers are a huge problem in South Africa. (Source: I am South Africa) so that elephant was absolutely vibing whether that dude was a ranger or a poacher. If it vibed that ranger was going to try hurt it absolutely would have gone down swinging. Calm, non threatening, but also I’ll put up a fight if needs be energy is a must when dealing with an (wild) elephant. Calm vibes won’t help if there is any intention to hurt the animal. If that elephant had read the sitch wrong and that guy was a poacher it would have been dead. It’s life or death. Likely, it helped that there werent a lot of them, just one guy with a stick (and someone with a camera), if there had been more it might have read the sitch as more threatening and attacked. Elephants don’t want to attack, it puts them at risk and not even for food. F ing poachers. My hatred of them… it makes me angry just thinking about it. That guy was a baller. His vibe was I don’t want to hurt you, but I will if you try fight me. Hard to give off successfully. 10/10 P.s that elephant reminded me of my dog, I don’t know why😂 it seemed almost tame in a strange way, but if it was in a park it absolutely was not.

[@kmhkennedy]

@@migarsormrapophis2755yeah no, those game rangers are absolute experts at dealing with wild life. He dealt with it perfectly. Elephants know about humans, they know they are dangerous sometimes. Most elephants I’ve game reserves are pretty chill though with people, that one was probably being territorial for a reason. Like a baby elephant or something. I’ve seen rangers deal with elephants and they can tell when they are getting shirty and that’s exactly how the deal with it. I’ve seen other, more novice rangers, and they f it up and can make the sitch worse. That is not a tame elephant, it is not an elephant you can ride. It is a wild animal. There a very specific ways to handle a wild animal like that without getting maimed.

About 20 years ago, a tiger was spotted in my small rural American town. People got pictures of it, and it was in the news. It was very alarming, but everyone eventually stopped talking about it. I learned what happened from a family friend who was a big game hunter. Apparently, a member of his hunting club, was some how able to get this tiger, illegally, for the purpose of hunting it, and it escaped. The story goes that the tiger killed some livestock, and a few hunters waited for it to come back and killed it. They had access to a backhoe and were able to bury it. It’s really scary to think that someone could have died because some jerks wanted to illegally hunt a tiger.

ok as a Thai person, I have to say It is a place that preserves tigers very well. We have the second largest tiger population in the world. It's amazing to learn about them. But it's good that you're concerned because people who want to study these things should know about the potential dangers. However, there has been no case of a tiger killing a person in Thailand for a long time. (People still illegally kill tigers.) There are many ways to learn more about Thailand's wildlife up close and safely. Thai people are kind and happy to share their knowledge about the things they love.

My uncle once had an encounter with a wild gorilla male. He initially froze in shock when this huge ape rapidly approached him up to an arm length, but once it came close, he for some reason extended his hand and tried to introduce himself… yes, to a literal wild gorilla. (One of those brain short-circuit under stress reactions.) That ill-mannered gorilla completely ignored his hand though and instead briskly grabbed a colourful little bag of oranges he was holding in his other hand to quickly storm off with his loot. Later he (the gorilla) was seen happily munching away the oranges, while the bag had become a stylish new addition to this sharp if a little savage dresser’s hat collection. Unquestionably, every dandy in furs needs a proper orange bag hat, so he was completely in the right to enrich his wardrobe (and his breakfast) with Uncle’s fruit bag; who, as a polite and generous hooman in awe of Mr. Gorilla’s impeccable fashion sense, gladly yielded it. I like to think he was more than fairly compensated with this story though.

[@HappyBeezerStudios]

Guess instead of just reaching out a hand, reaching out an orange would've been the calmer interaction.

[@jonnylumberjack6223]

That gorilla was captive raised by the dude (Damien Aspinall) in England and released into the wild in their native range. They were visiting the gorillas they had released a few years after that release. So the gorilla knew the man, knew the people were trustworthy. Not sure a wild born gorilla would have been quite so comfortable with all the hugging!

That made humans her best option for prey because she could hold on to them properly even with half her front teeth on one side missing or damaged. Her story is fascinating, if a touch sad.

[@HappyBeezerStudios]

There are breeds of (semi) naked cats, so it was obvious that wasn't some "mysterious" animal. Just one without hair. And the face of a naked cat is very similar, so it was obviously somewhat related.

I've worked around tiger country and met numerous people who have had encounters with tigers. They will monitor what people do and pay attention to our habits, which for the most part is just being curious. But for a group of people lost on a mountain side was a bit more sinister. Also I read a collection of stories from forest monks in Thailand prior to European arrival. They considered elephants a significant threat as most other animals will not molest a monk meditating under a tree, however elephants would randomly kill monks. The forest monks did have a high appreciation and affection for the intelligence of cobras. Possibly partly as a meditating monk is a nice place to curl up and stay awhile.

[@davidvento5481]

Thai natives say elephants do possess an equal if not greater risk to people than tigers. Those venturing into the wilderness in areas frequented by tigers will often wear human face masks on the back of their heads. The reason for this being that tigers prefer catching their prey unaware and the rear-facing masks act as a deterrent to a tiger scoping them out as potential prey. Some people also paint rear-facing eyes on their cow’s backsides for the same reason! The herper Rupert (of “Rupert’s Reptiles” on YT) goes wandering all around the jungles in Thailand -alone & in a group apparently unconcerned by the possibility of tiger attacks. The diversity of species there is totally amazing! He also is currently organizing tours -perhaps consider contacting him as he seems to know all the hot spots for herping. TBH, I’d take what Chandler says with a grain considering the result of his recent careless free-handling of wild cobras in India. His cavalier, impetuous nature is not setting the best example for reptile keepers with organizations like FWC, etc..

What if they are fed? Like if I were to put out some food. I imagine tigers become like bears. Maybe some acclimate well to humans and others don’t? .. yes they are agile carnivorous wild animals (cats to boot are the hunters of all hunters) maybe so so much like bears although, I presume .. as long as they are not hungry and they are not provoked or threatened then they should be relatively harmless?? Like tarantulas. If they’re not hungry and there’s no reason to be defensive.. Cats and tarantulas have a lot in common already anyways.

[@krankarvolund7771]

@@Kittypaws90 Most tigers don't attack people, it seems that only some "man-eater" tigers will go out of their way to stalk and kill people (most of the time isolated unarmed people, they don't like to attac groups of humans and won't attack armed people unless they're cornered). The most likely explanation is that man-eaters are sick or injured tigers, unable to kill anything stronger than a human, as it's thought that tigers don't like human meat. There's two exceptions however, some tigers took a liking in human meat during wars after eating many corpses, and in the Sundarbans, between India and Bangladesh, there's so much tigers that even healthy tigers attacked humans. However, those attacks have dropped considerably these last years due to better management from the local authorities (only three people per year are killed, versus fifty or sixty a year before ^^).

Fun fact: there are two different groups of rodents called "mole rats" that evolved convergently!

They live in Eurasia and are more closely related to actual rats and mice than to the other group called "mole rats".

He was a funny little dude, had the most beautiful, long, flowing mullet the eighties ever witnessed, was totally blind and had a pair of nuts bigger than mine. He was called Maverick because he zoomed around like a little rocket - being blind didn't slow him down, he had a seeing-eye-bunny friend who lived with him...

Clint, I just want to give a shoutout to how incredibly grounded you seem. Despite being as thoroughly educated as you are, you don't do things like assert yourself as "Dr. Laidlaw", or have any air of arrogance. While obviously I don't know you in person, I'd like to think your personality in these videos is somewhat reflective of your real personality, all the same. And yeah, just felt it's worth mentioning how much I appreciate being able to watch someone as knowledgeable as yourself, while not being put off by a stuck-up attitude!

35:08 I'm here from your second Tiktok video! My vote is on Jaguarundi for this guy, and here's why; Jags have smaller ears, nose, and eyes than the Fossa, which I think this guy has, but the ears are very rounded, giving them a similar look, especially when folded back. But the selling point for me is that the Fossa is more of a tree dweller, while the Jag is more at home on the ground. That critter reads Jaguarundi for me, for sure.

Oh, this was delightful! The elephant video reminded me of an encounter I had when I was on safari in Kenya in the 90s. My group was in a safari van, and we were photographing a family of elephants, including a teeny baby that didn't even have tusks yet. One of our group accidentally used the flash on his camera and it spooked them, and the adults flared their ears at us. The baby *freaked* and came at the van in full charge, and actually nearly skidded into us (our guide pointed out later that this was the one moment we were in actual danger, because if the baby *had* skidded into us it could have been hurt and then we would have had a bunch of *angry* adult elephants on our hands). There was this moment when we could see the wheels turning and the "ohhhh, this thing is much bigger than I thought it was" on the baby's face even as it never stopped moving, just kept running as it turned around and galumphed right back to its mama's side. 😂 Adorable and terrifying memory!

Hi there, from the country where people post videos of giant snakes in their driveways, elephants in their kitchens and tigers charging their motorbikes. Actually, most places here are perfectly safe! I was a lot more worried of random lunatic gunmen when camping in the Arizona desert than I was ever worried of wildlife here. There is a song here called "into the forest". When, deep in the forest, the tiger asks him if he is scared, the person answers "still better than to meet heartless people". I tend to agree.

I love gorillas too. I used to really enjoy the SF Zoo because it was the only place in the Bay Area that had gorillas. As part of my Anthro course I spent a lot of time there observing them. I was not a bio science major (fine arts/social sciences) but have loved zoology specifically primates ( huge anthro enthusiast) since childhood. My favorite class trips for my drawing class were to the zoo. I sat & drew the gorillas for a long while & they got very curious about what I was doing & came up to the glass observation area to check me out. I showed them what I was drawing & could see the intelligence in their eyes. Kind of amazing interaction. Apparently because I spent long periods at each enclosure & had a clip board (small drawing board) people assumed I worked at the zoo & kept asking me questions. People are too noisy, fidgety & impatient when visiting the zoo to really see the animals. My idea of a great time is an uncrowded weekday spent drawingi at the zoo. Every city we've lived in we have been members & supporters of the local zoo & museums.
