The Nautilus is one of my fave sea creatures. I’ve never seen their eggs before so thanks for showing that! I also had no idea they lived to be up to 20 years old! A shame they reproduce and grow so slowly, definitely a contributing factor to potentially declining populations. These creatures are so cool though. Did you know that they, obviously, can’t see behind them, so they often bump into a lot of things like rocks and anything else that might get in their way. It’s kinda funny to watch. Thanks for the awesome video on such an awesome creature!
I got to see these at the Gatlinburg Aquarium, and man are they so cool! I really appreciate such unique animals and I’m so glad I got the chance to see them up close! Amazing video!
Yes, we were responsible for the asteroid slamming into the Yucatan peninsula and causing all the Jurassic era animals to go bye-bye 65 million years ago. Are you stupid, and why do?
Nautilus is popular because of two things: 1: Their shells are the golden example of the most beautiful mathematical sequence called the Golden Ratio. & 2: The name of the submarine owned by Captain Nemo from the book by Jules Verne called 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.
Nautilus are really old creatures chambered Nautilus is our round today even the rare and elusive fuzzy Nautilus and nautiluses I heard can also eat dead animal origin that falls flat on the ocean floor well that's one way to grab food I guess even though they can't shoot ink like an octopus they are still built for speed as long as nothing harms them of course
This is such a beautifully done & presented short but informative tutorial of the Pacific Chambered Nautilus! 🙏 Thank You So Much for the efforts & for sharing! 🌷🌿🌍💜 🐳
I met one when i was on an island, its was superr cool to observe them in the wild. But im not sure whether it is the same or not? Since the island i visit was on south china sea. It was dark red and move quite fast, its hard for me to video it was during low tide. Overall it was a fantastic experience meeting with prehistoric animal. If anyone can confirm what i saw, tht would be wonderful.
Wow that sounds so wonderful! It's pretty difficult to identify anything through a written description alone, but maybe check out iNaturalist to see if you can find something that looks similar. Best of luck!

20-some years ago I saw a couple small ones for sale in a pet shop. So very cool. If I had had a salt water tank I'd've bought one. They were only a couple hundred dollars each.
If any of you reading these comments care for these beautiful animals, please support efforts to stop harvesting of nautiluses for all purposes!! We don't know their population numbers.. only that they take a long time to reproduce, in very particular conditions, and it is near impossible in captivity. Please protect them!
I don't remember how long ago it was I did what turned out to be a long but fruitful search for an image of the mollusk itself and found that it is as ugly as its shell is beautiful. As odd as it may sound one of my most vivid memories of a tour of Oahu was my first and only look at live nautiluses in the Honolulu Zoo. What I'd give to see them in the ocean.
hey everyone i just wanted to share that i really like these freaky little guys... to be honest they kind of scared me to start off... >_< but now i like them a lot :3
The biggest bug about evolution...the scientists always say; - so they developed this new adaption that now made them capable of.......Seriously? Like they all got together & had a little meeting to deliberately decide which one of them will start the next phase up the evolutionary ladder. Can't we just say that over time, this new thing developed & that's what happened to give us this new species.
No, they did not get together and have a little meeting. One happened to be born with more optimal traits, which makes it more likely to survive and pass on it's genes of those more optimal traits to the next generation, which also has a potential to have more optimal traits, and so on. This occurs over many millions of years, which I think many fail to recognize how unfathomably long an amount of time that it.

Oh.. my... God... The baby nautilus.... My life is complete I never knew I needed to see that, but I needed to see that.
Nautilittles
It's an adorable animal in general.
Nautilus also has the most primitive eyes of any animals. Their eyes lack lenses and are simply holes that are sensitive to light.
Makes sense they look weird. But what about tardigrades
They have primitive eyes, but not the most primitive.
why havent they evolved to get better eyes?

@@AnimalFactFiles We both learned something new! :D
There design is so cool and unlike other animals, probably for how primitive they are.
Nice vid
Definitely! Apparently their design is used in art and considered a golden ratio. I'm not as familiar with it, but it's something to look into!
@@AnimalFactFiles Nice one! And congrats, you noticed that the world is using metric units ;)
Btw., greetings to Leonardo Fibonacci ^^

The golden spiral is in nautilus shell itself, its based off of it.
It was originally used for floatation, squids, octopus, and cuttlefish, used to have it, it was also used for protection.
What a beautiful animal! I love the way they move.
NAUTILUSES ARE SOOOO COOL!
Nautili? :)

That's so cool you saw them in real life! So glad you enjoyed the video here, too!
They’ve amazing! I wish I could see one in person!
Is it bad that I thought these guys were extinct? I had NO idea they still live in our oceans today.
Same, I thought they were gonezo!
They are going to be extinct at this rate
almost all of their species/relatives are extinct, that's why you think that.
Not yet Although yet again it's humans that are the problem
Yes, we were responsible for the asteroid slamming into the Yucatan peninsula and causing all the Jurassic era animals to go bye-bye 65 million years ago. Are you stupid, and why do?
They look so cool! I was in awe the whole video. Such an interesting creature.
So glad you enjoyed learning about them!
Is it me or this type of Cephalopod (Nautilus) is kinda cute?
Definitely not just you ;)

One of my favorite animals of all time!
Nautilus: Exist
Humans:
*WHAT A BEAUTIFUL nEckLaCe-*
💀
There's a sculpture of one in an exhibit at Clearwater Marine Aquarium in Florida!
Nautilus were thought to be extinct but they were rediscovered and considered a living fossil
You're thinking of a specific allonautilus
I LOVE THE
NAUTILUS
nautilises are underrated
TRUTH
Oh a video about me, how cool!
Can you guys do a video of TOUCANS :D Please !!!!!
Heck yeah! That's a great request. Thank you! =D
NAUTILUS RULES!!!
What a very cool 😎 cephalopod.

How fitting for the creature it discusses
Incomparable creatures, beautiful. 👍
I have 6 nautilus shells. The first one I found on a beach in Indonesia when I was 5 and the rest at thrift shops of the years. ❤❤❤
I love nautilus, the only tatoo I have is one
A video about kea the only mountain parrot would be cool
I love this request! Thank you!
What a beautiful and presumably-efficient creature.

That stock explosion got me.

Noddles is a very cool but I love krill so I have that suggestion
That's a great suggestion! I'll add it to the list. Thank you!
incredible to think they have been around for almost half a billion years
this is my favourite animal
Hope you learned something new about them!
Amazing video you did a great job

They were less diverse and yet survived the dinosaur ending event while ammonites were but still went extinct
These guys are so cool! too bad we haven't found too many
I know! Imagine what their populations were like in their heyday!
Wonderful creature
Y'see now I'm pleasantly surprised, because I thought Nautiluses went extinct with the dinosaurs

I’m surprised nobody tried to eat one of these.
You haven't researched enough have you people have and it's a problem
Dude looks exactly like a pokemon
Omanyte is based off the ammonite which is indeed very similar to the nautilus!
I love me some nautilus, but I don’t get how people can think that thing is cute lmao it’s like a pillbug of the sea
Nautili are awesome?
Heck yes they are!
Lol thanks so much for choosing suggestion and the shout out.🙏🏾
You're welcome! We loved learning about these guys!! =)
I thought they were extinct long ago because I’ve never seen one alive, even in a video.
Do Nautilus still look the same even after 400 million years?
They are technically not the same animal after all that time, but they look very similar. It's like how many animals that look like crabs aren't actually crabs, but animals that just keep evolving to look somewhat like crabs.
looks like a shrimp

You mean those things from minecraft
Babi nautilus are cute !!!💖💖
Just search it
Don't kill nautiluses I think there the last shelled animal in the water
Last shelled cephalopod

Only they prob now what the marine dinos look like and sound like
Nautilus'ancestors are the Ammonites.
Nautilus are horrifying creatures. Have you seen pictures of them eating the eye of dead fish?!?!
No I haven't!! That's fascinating!!
Now who knows what that means
