      Love your down to earth way off narrating and the interesting information offcourse. A lot of narrators of nature shows, talk like there is something sensational going on , or the music is over dramatic or weird sound effects are added . A good show does not need this. Nature is awesome as it is and does not need embellishments and you Dr. Ann are a star in narrating,

    When Ann talked about the decentralized nervous systems of the octopus it reminded me of a joke I tell to teach people about chickens. Chickens literally have brains in their asses. They have a cluster of nerves at the base of their tail that acts like a small brain. That's why a chicken will continue to run around for a while after you chop off it's head.

    The sea lion pulling the girl off the dock was in Richmond BC Canada. It was on the news. As I recall, the feeding the animal part wasn't included in the newscast. People don't get that animals like sea lions and sharks aren't limited to the sea. They can jump and lunge too.
    I came across a sea elephaht sleeping at the edge of a beach. Quite far from the water. I urged the German tourist not to approach it too closely. She went within 5 feet. Thankfully it just kept snoring. If the nap/sleep had ended with her inside its threat range... I can't imagine her surviving. Hornby Island, summer time.

I remembered when I was a kid, they always told us at the water parks about the dangers of these animals. People today just think everything is harmless, because if it’s not it would get banned, or canceled… That’s how people think in the world of social media and also by seeing these animals on social media where they never talk about the dangers, is the real issue how the get labeled as harmless

      I was thinking the very same thing. Ppl do very stupid things just a few years back when the parents was walking thru a Disney resort park(I think)near the water and there was signs warning ppl not to let small children or pets run around there. A family was doing just that and their 3 yr old son was snatched up by a croc who came running up on the sand? The dad went into the water after the croc but came back. I believe they found the little boy's body awhile later. It's hard to feel sorry for parents when they do dumb things like that? I do of course feel heartbroken for the child.

      I’m from Wyoming. I’ve been to Yellowstone countless times. When you entry the park you pass signs in every language telling to stay a certain distance from bison, moose and bears. They hand you a warning that tells you. The ranger at the gate tells you. There are signs all throughout, in many languages. Still people get gored or tore up, every year.

The sea lion didn’t look particularly aggressive to me- he don’t even stick around after yanking her in- he could have grabbed her and taken off. It was more like an “FU I’m out”, kind of thing.

    Our local aquarium several years ago noticed one of the school of fish was getting smaller and smaller.
    Turns out the octopus had memorized the guard schedules, figured out how to unlock his own tank, crawl across the aquarium to this other tank, unlock it, crawl inside, eat several fish and go back to his tank without so much as a hinge left open 😂
    It took WEEKS to figure it out and I think it was because someone finally decided to check the cameras.

    My brush with an octopus: it was dark red angry after a lot of divers had photographed it, then changed to sand colour and carried on minding its business. Quite impressive to see that in real life. It sodded off into a crevice and my dive-buddy thought it was a good idea to try to get it out of the cave by poking around with his snorkel. Five of six tentacles came shooting out and took the snorkel away. We could see the octopus sitting in the cave, examining its new booty, the sort of snorkel with a transparent mouthpiece, so you could see the tentacles fingering around in it. Eventually it got bored and threw it out again. The dangerous bit was me running out of air later in the dive because I had laughed so hard.

      @Sasuga_Skky 3 роки тому +9

      @SubversiveMemes Animals also rape other animals, does that mean it's okay for us to rape people? Yeah, I didn't think so. We are intelligent beings, and we should use that intelligence to bring good in the world, and not unnecessarily harm other living beings. Maybe think through your argument a bit more before calling others irrational...

    • @Sasuga_Skky
      @Sasuga_Skky 3 роки тому +6

      @SubversiveMemes So you hunt and kill animals yourself? If we evolved to do so, then you should be doing that tp stay alive, but I'm guessing you buy your meat from a supermarket. Back then it was necessary for us to eat meat to survive, just as it is necessary for animals to rape other animals in order for their species to survive. But as we evolved, we discovered agriculture, and many other food sources that are often far healthier than meat. Your point is that it's okay for geese to rape because it's necessary for their survival. But this cannot be applied to human meat eating, at least not anymore. It is unnecessary for us to kill and eat animals at all, and at least at the magnitudes that we do. Therefore, as it is unnecessary, it is morally wrong. This is using your own argument.

    • @Sasuga_Skky
      @Sasuga_Skky 3 роки тому +5

      @SubversiveMemes Actually you are the one who claimed that necessity dictates morality, with your geese analogy. Also, to say that morality only extends to our own species is an incredibly human exceptionalist (also arrogant) thing to say. What about pets? What about the environment? People already extend morality to animals, talking about humane treatment, animal abuse, and free range etc. The question is why we cherry pick what we accept as moral behaviour. Why should we as (intelligent and therefore morally responsible) human beings cause unnecessary harm to the environment whilst causing unnecessary suffering to other living things. I would say we have a responsibility as intelligent living beings, to extend compassion to other living beings. Otherwise it's just speciesist, and we can extend that logic to extremes. For example, why should I care about whether you live or die? I don't know you, you're not in my clan? Using your logic, I shouldn't care. Also racism can be easily defended using your logic.

    29:45 the biggest problem with the decline of sharks and whales is the humboldt squid. initially only known to live in the Sea of Cortez, now they can be found all the way up to Alaska. in the Sea of Cortez they are referred to as the Devil squid partly because they have been seen dragging fisherman who had fallen overboard to their deaths, by dragging the, down. Unlike sharks who do not see us as prey, the Humboldt squid will actively target anyone in the water. Also where as normal squid can only hunt to 500m, Humboldt squid can hunt down to 1500m and are cannibalistic, so once they get to dangerous numbers they will never run out of food and swimming at night will be fatal!

Huge ships catch thousands of sharks, they cut off the fins, then throw the still live sharks BACK in the ocean because all they want are the fins.
      And rhinos are nearing extinction because poachers catch them, cut off their horns then leave the entire rest of body to rot, all because some cultures think the horns have medicinal or aphrodisiac properties. Now, are those traditions that should be continued?
