Weird oropendola
Переглядів 615 років тому
Oropéndola de Montezuma (Psarocolius montezuma)en lo que parece ser un árbol de mango o algo parecido. Me llamo la atención la deformación del pico asemejando un pico cruzado. Montezuma oropendola (Psarocolius montezuma) feeding on some tree that looks like a mango tree. Its deformed bill like a crossbill drew my attention. 25/12/18 Cartago, Costa Rica
Pronghorn crossing fences near Laramie, Wyoming
Переглядів 3175 років тому
One of my favorite things about moving to Laramie is that I got to see an animal I had never heard off and ever siince never ceased to amaze me: the pronghorn. Here is a video of a herd (Antilocapra americana, US: /ˈprɔːŋ-/), Steffi H., Cody P. and I saw this weekend near the Snowies, Wyoming Pronghorn also known as speedgoat, is the only survivor of the superfamily Giraffoidea in the Americas....

Spotted-neck otter (Hydrictis maculicollis) in Lake Tanganyika
Переглядів 5846 років тому
This Summer 2018 we were lucky to conduct some more ichthyological field work along the Tanzanian shore of Lake Tanganyika. Here is a short clip featuring a spotted-necked otter from Lake Tanganyika. This adult Hydrictis maculicollis got really close to Courtney Milledge and I while SCUBA diving and gave us this wonderful shot!

    I love this video, hard to find good footage like this. But I think Peacock Bass cichlids can get larger than Emperor Cichlids they are known to reach over 40 inches while emperors seem to cap at 36 inches at most.

    • @jokervienna6433
      @jokervienna6433 3 роки тому

      I have the same thought, Boulengerochromis is not the biggest cichlid in the world. It does not matter much though because they are truly magnificent! I love Tanganyika and its wide variety of cichlids and other odd species. One of the wonders of the world!

    what does "cichlid" mean? how is the environment in the deep water?

    • @jimenagolcher911
      @jimenagolcher911 4 роки тому

      Thanks for your questions!! -Cichlidae comes from a greek word for a type of (marine) fish. I guess the person who named the family (curiously a nephew of Napoleon Bonaparte) did not feel particularly inspired to come up with a better name. -The deep waters are considered "dead" since below 100m there is no more oxygen/nor light in the water and this represents a horizontal barrier for fish and other animals, but not for anoxic bateria. Fishermen do catch cichlids 100m deep or below (for example: Perissodus, Baileychromis, Trematocara, Bathybates) up to 200m. These must be spending limited periods of time in the waters lacking oxygen or have special adaptations to survive such anoxic conditions. The temperature in the deep water only differs from a few degrees Celsius from the surface, but very few people have studied anything besides the water chemistry/microbiology. -Lots of unknowns!

So we did a link on one of them on our website (gtroph.fr/site/page_menu.php?id=9). Please tell me if you are ok with that or if you want us to mention something under the video. Best regards.
