Yeah, I know a dive instructor that has a “bestie” shark that he sees on dives. I think it’s really cool, but that first video was pretty dumb. Ain’t no way a baby shark could grow that fast in a year.
The ways sharks and humans make friends is *_so much cooler_* than ai slop. Sharks and humans afaik are doing something not unlike humans and wolves. And that’s cool. They’re smart and affectionate animals that can remember faces. They’re a very different neckless shape than we’re used to
We have wolverines in our neck of the woods. And they get much larger than some people imagine. I've never actually seen one, thankfully. But I had a customer in the Bar I worked in that remembers them running across them in their fields a few times while riding horses. Cool creatures, but not ones I'd want to tangle with.

So I tracked down the eel TikTok (I say as if it were a difficult task) and one of the comments says it's a "Highfin Snake Eel." Google results seem to back it up, too. Wikipedia gives a link to some images that appear to be at least a similar species, given the dorsal fin.
@@ClintsReptiles It is Ophichtus altipennis, which is from my favorite family of eels, Ophichthidae. As you can see, my profile picture is of Myrichthys colubrinus, another genus in the family. If you are serious about learning more about eels, I'd be happy to share my knowledge, especially if you'd like to do a "Is this the right pet for you" video, as I have a couple and find them to be great pets for the right people and have a published care guide on them on Reef2Reef. And well, who doesn't want a fake sea snake as a pet.

The leopard seal really got me. You mean to tell me those people never watched, like, Happy Feet?? I also had an animal encyclopedia myself, but there was quite a few mainstream things that involved animals like the leopard seal and sloth that it genuinely baffles me a little bit sometimes.
Commenting for the algorithm my friend! I am unfortunately getting on a flight to go home so I won't be able to watch it fully. But I will definitely watch later!
Clint, I’m so sorry the video got taken down for something so innocuous…I have to vent to you guys about this AI nonsense. I’m a fellow studier of zoology/ herpetology, and every time I see one of those dang videos I say the exact thing. “This is fake and not correct information!” And then people respond “how do you know?” And I say “there are two (or more) different species in this video!! This is AI gobbledygook!” It seems they’re targeted at children, and I hope that my suspicion is correct because it’s too scary for me to think adults are falling for it. Also, recently I saw a guy catching Anoles for fishing. I worked with invasives down in Florida, so I wrote out a very polite comment letting the person know that they shouldn’t use green anoles, the second lizard in the video, and should try to only target browns. I used the common words so people would know what I’m talking about, and you know what someone said?!?!….”bro, the second lizard is brown, not green…” They were referring to the brownish color of an A. carolinensis in distress…they couldn’t comprehend that they are two different species! I got berated and made fun of by a handful of people because I was “being mean” and “nobody cares about a lizard”…. But I CARE!!! I care so much. What is happening with this anti-intellectual BS on this platform?!? Is it just children?! I don’t understand. Anyway thank you for giving me a platform. There aren’t many people in my life I can share the frustration and passion for herps with.
Anti-intellectualism has been spreading pretty much since Facebook was invented. It’s been getting notably terrible lately, which is why I’m grateful to channels like Clint, miniminuteman, minutephysics, etc for being amazing science educators and fighting against anti-intellectualism
i forget what the phenomenon is called. its some kind of human nature thing, where people treat something outside of their field as fact, but immediately recognize when things inside their field are false ((because they are experts)) and people usualy agree with what makes them feel good/what they logic is reasonable in their first impression. and things that counter that logic/emotion are painted in a negative light ((even if the new information is objectively correct)
@@georgerobins4110 I agree…and you know it doesn’t bother me at all that people are simply uninterested or uninformed about topic. I love to educate/learn more about these subjects with anyone who’s interested…it’s the vitriol and spite that I have a lot of trouble understanding…. Just being talked down to out of nowhere. Where does all that anger come from? It isn’t as if I’m frequently making controversial statements. I’ve seen others spoken down to for being passionate about completely innocuous topics, like arts and crafting for instance, and have always tried to come to their defense…then they come to my channel, which I use for my art, and leave awful comments. Thank you guys for reminding me I’m not alone. I’m also so grateful for channels like Clint’s. And the people in the comments who also watch these channels are such a breath of fresh air!!
@@ddd09ish1 I think I understand what you’re talking about but I’ve forgotten the phenomenon name as well. I’ve been thinking a lot about what makes a person feel so angry. I think people take being incorrect so personally because they must feel it’s a direct attack on their identity or their worldview. It’s uncomfortable for anyone to feel as though their paradigm is under attack, myself included, even if that isn’t someone’s intent…so maybe people are immediately on the defensive when presented with a counterpoint or differing opinion. It never feels good to say “you’re right, i was wrong.”, but those words often lead to some pretty remarkable and enlightening discussions.
A fun fact about the cyclops goat! That particular one shown in the video was considered a miracle due to it being the only known (or one of very very few) cases of cyclopia that survived past the 15 hour mark. She lived for at least 8 days, though I can’t find much else about how much longer she lived past that point due to the only article I could find about her being locked behind a paywall. She likely didn’t live much longer, but the fact she survived as long as she did was a bit of a miracle in of itself. Morally- questionable.. I can’t imagine her quality of life was very good. But it’s fascinating at least!
I love the breakdown of each of these videos in a gentle, logical manner. I also love how Clint identifies species in the footage so we get to learn how to spot these things for ourselves. ❤ True educator ❤
I've seen worse video's stay monetized over that iguana bite. I'm really sorry UA-cam flagged something like that, especially since it didn't even show it bleeding yet.
Their reason was “it’s dangerous to show this to people because they might imitate it” but like… Clint literally says “this is very stupid, don’t do it”
I've stepped on a large snapping turtle before while crossing a slow stream back in PA when I was 10ish. He didn't take a toe, or anything, just swam away. The only injury was me falling on my rear, and a near heart attack when a big rock started swimming up the stream.
Maned Wolves are my favorite animals. I wish more people knew about them and appreciated them, because then maybe we'd have more luck on the conservation front.❤
Clint: You can identify sevengill sharks in a few ways. Me: They have seven gills? Clint: The spots and the shape of the caudal fins. Me: Ah yes obviously.
The way the guy just laid there in the water pretend that those are ticks all over his leg like that pretend that he was dead and then just suddenly rose up from the dead and to wash off the ticks and they're still on him and first of all if those were real ticks how do you let that many crawl and latch on to you like that without noticing and I'm pretty sure ticks won't gather in that one spot yeah that one video is fake
HAHAHAHAHA YESSSSS THE GUY TRYNA GROW BEANS ON HIS LEG IS STILL HERE. arguably my favorite video in the whole collection because it just makes me feel so completely insane
I feel like I need way more context and information about that one… like, what? How? Why? I am so incredibly confused I have trouble putting my confusion into words. Help!!!
A tiger shark, in feeding mode, isn't going after a person.. its focused on the turtle.. but if you end up in its mouth accidentally. I mean, you're already in there, and it _is_ in feeding mode, its probably going to go ahead and finish taking a nibble. They aren't exactly sharks known for being picky.
I discovered you through the original video and immediatly loved your joyfulness Clint! It's such a breath of fresh air to discover passionate, knowledgable, entertaining educators.on this platform and you are definetly one of them!
UA-cam rarely makes sense in how they treat their best content creators, whatever helps, Clint, just let your fans know, we’re here to help-aaaand wanting react videos is a guilty pleasure I partake in too so that certainly helps 😂
When we lived in northern AZ, a pronghorn ran into my husband's car in rush hour traffic. What are they running from, seriously. He was left with a dented car and a few tufts of fur, as it ran across 3 more lanes of highway into some trees. I recognized that thing immediately. I like them, they look cool. Eta- We also had another animal that looks like other animals but is its own thing- javelina! I'd love a javelina video, they're an interesting animal.
A pronghorn raced my car along a road in Montana. Managed 60 mph over short distances, as far as I could tell, though Wikipedia says they max out around 55. Fortunately I never had a collision with one.
My mom, my work colleagues, and my friends often showed me these tiktok videos where they stitch unrelated animal videos to make a seemingly continuous story. Otters showing gratitude to humans, an AI dog rescuing an AI toddler in a flood, etc. I usually end up spending the next 10-15 minutes explaining how the narrative is not true, and invariably I will point them to watch your video and channel.
Especially annoying because there’s already enough *actually cute* animal videos out there. Making up stuff is unnecessary, and just makes (smart) people more cynical.
I’ll say it again, I agree the dragons likely don’t have a strategy. But they do know to bite things and follow a bleeding injured thing! The documentaries I’ve seen usually frame it that way. They do usually talk about the bacteria or venom, but they don’t go so far as to frame is as strategy. Just big lizard bites big prey and follows the injured prey. The video you showed pushed an anthropomorphized narrative for sure.
That being said the documentaries do still tend to depict the dragon's hunting methods in a misleading manner, claiming the dragons bite and follow the injured animal long distances or for long lengths of time, when what they actually are filming are much more likely dragons that just happened to be in the area when the injured animal succumbed (if you think about it, no film maker is going to be able to follow a injured animal like that for days to begin with, they have to sleep after all). Actual observations on the dragons hunting habits suggest they usually kill an animal they target in the initial encounter, and if it escapes then for that dragon it is basically a failed hunt. Even if the animal dies later (and it's not uncommon for them to recover from the bites, making it even more pointless for the dragon to waste time following them), it is much more likely other dragons will be the ones to benefit.
This happens all the time to Ann Reardon (a food scientist and educator) when she’s literally warning about the dangers of viral cooking “hacks” and “pranks” The original videos don’t get taken down, but hers does?!
I gotta say, you have completely changed how I view snapping turtles. They lived in a pond that I used to frequent as a child, and I was TERRIFIED of them! My grandfather--who liked to spin yarns--had "stories" about friends who went swimming and had toes bitten off. I also erroneously believed (based on the name alone) that Alligator snapping turtles would be more dangerous 😮
@@Dr.Ian-Plect I don't think you understand how reasoning works. If clade classification is the reason that it's true that maned wolves are fish, then you don't need another alternative reason to classify them as fish. The classification system you choose to use and accept is what determines what classifications different organisms are given. Clearly you already know why a maned wolf is a fish. If you have a problem with or disagree with the "can't evolve out of a clade" reasoning, then you should be arguing your case for why that system is faulty, or why you think a different system is better, rather than trying to call people out for just stating facts according to that given system. If your only point is that the fish classification is only true if you accept that you can't evolve out of a clade, then all you've done is correctly identified the transitive property and I don't see the point of your comment.
@@maxcasteel2141 I understand it well, I'm a zoologist, I just disagree with the specifics. I've copied this part from a previous exchange. ---------------- So, we evolved from a group of fish called the lobe-finned fish. the clade Sarcopterygii, members are called sarcopterygians. So as all those groups within evolved from lobe-finned fish, you may have heard the trope 'we are fish'. Another trope you may have heard is 'you can't outgrow your ancestry', a point noting that you will always have traits associated and originating in a common ancestor. People take these 2 points together, namely - you can't outgrow your ancestry - we are sarcopterygians ...and derive 'we are fish' from it! My point against that is on the grounds that being a sarcopterygian only states you have (or should only!) the primitive traits obtained from lobe-finned fish and evolved from them, and are members of that clade, not that you _are_ a fish. To _be_ a fish means you have _all_ the traits traditionally associated with being defined and designated a fish. Humans do not meet those criteria.
Unless I’m mistaken, those “baby shark” fish in the first mind-numbing video aren’t Remoras, they’re way too big and there’s no suction fin on any of them. They look like Cobias, which are unrelated to Remoras iirc but do heavily resemble Remoras when young. Same stripes.
Okay, the headless "moose" is an elk. In Europe, where the name first arose. Elk had been wiped out from England by the time that North America was being settled and the only memory of it was that it was a large deer. So when settlers first saw our wapitis they put the European name of "elk" on them. Moose were found later and we used the native term for them.
Thank you. I don't count Americans in this, but I cringe whenever I see fellow Europeans, like in Sweden, say "we have lots of MOOSE in the forest". No we don't! We have ELK! I understand we will probably never be able to convince Americans to call Alces alces "elk", but maybe they could just ditch the word "elk" altogether, keep calling Alces alces "moose", and just please call Cervus canadensis "wapiti" or "Canada deer".
Nice reference Coyote! Dr. Alan Grant uses the line "The point is, you are alive when they start to eat you. So you know, try to show a little respect." to the little boy at the dig site while discussing Velociraptors in Jurassic Park (1993).
I was nearly yelling at my screen over this shark video in the beginning. "That ain't the same shark you dunce, that ain't even the same SPECIES! Wait WHAT?! That is an entirely different species AGAIN!!!" And so on. What a trip. I hate tiktoks like that...
Clint Laidlaw is the most sincere people on this platform, his honesty and passion are to be commended. What a cynical move from UA-cam, to me, much akin to theft.
I really hope this version gets at least as many views as the other. Clint, you're awesome and your channel is my favorite on UA-cam. I can't wait to become a stinkin' rad fan!
I'll never forget the time I was camping and spent an hour handfeeding a huge snapper. He climbed out to grab pieces of chicken and his head was bigger than my hand. It was amazing
By the way that paddle boarder is called Brodie. At least he really sounds like him, he runs a UA-cam adventure/survival channel called YBS Youngbloods. He's the same guy as the video where a transparent boat has a sea snake passing by. He's probably just having a lot of fun there
Sorry you had to remake this video but happy we all got to watch it! 🐍 If it’s possible to postpone showing the iguana bite until after the first minute in future videos it might help avoid the censorship hammer. I hear the first minute of videos get judged extra strictly by YT.
I liked the first version of the video, but the additions were great and I'm going to have my kids watch it for part of their media literacy class. Thanks!
6:35 I don’t think those fish are common remoras ( _Remora remora_ ). The caudal fin are quite different, the one swimming close to the left flank of the lemon shark of the center has a longitudinal stripe (like the live or slender sharksucker _Echeneis naucrates_ ). On the other hand, the shape and size of the dorsal fins are different, specially in the larger fish swimming at a certain distance from the lemon shark.
These are some of my favorite videos of yours! I now constantly think of anhingas because you taught me what they are in your first zoologist react!! Keep up the amazing videos! They’re so educational and entertaining ☺️
Completely unfair of youtube. “You can’t make money off of this as it’s extremely irresponsible to show, but we totally can 👍” I’ll gladly rewatch, keep up the great work Clint and team
The thing about these animals being able to tell the difference between inanimate objects and body parts is interesting. It really makes sense though when you think about it. It wouldn't be good for them to react every time the wind blows a blade of grass or a branch into them, or if a piece of wood hits them while floating down a stream.
19:21 Ngl this is one of the most awesome and uplifting things I've heard in a while. The original cellular ancestor could be argued to be living on through us and all cellular life on earth for billions of years on end. Right up there with being made of stardust.
Leopards are pretty scary. Honey badgers are generally fairly chill if you leave them alone, but leopards can and do attack and eat people (usually children).

(Half of being a zoologist nowdays is just clarifying [read: ruining] viral animal videos for people 🤣. It’s a lot of “no, I’m sorry, but that’s mating behavior” and “that’s a defensive display” and “that person is risking so many parasites, I can’t even”. )
@@DwaynesWorld007 Nah. The rich taste weird after eating all that caviar. I myself am on a vegetarian diet. Turns out, vegetarians are more nutritious than you think.
So I tracked down the eel TikTok (I say as if it were a difficult task) and one of the comments says it's a "Highfin Snake Eel."
Google results seem to back it up, too. Wikipedia gives a link to some images that appear to be at least a similar species, given the dorsal fin.
I agree
@@ClintsReptiles It is Ophichtus altipennis, which is from my favorite family of eels, Ophichthidae. As you can see, my profile picture is of Myrichthys colubrinus, another genus in the family. If you are serious about learning more about eels, I'd be happy to share my knowledge, especially if you'd like to do a "Is this the right pet for you" video, as I have a couple and find them to be great pets for the right people and have a published care guide on them on Reef2Reef. And well, who doesn't want a fake sea snake as a pet.
This is my new favourite eel, so beautiful!
The amount of those videos where people can't identify animals gets me thinking that not everyone had an animal encyclopedia as a kid...
@@AliceHollend or they have one but forgetting its content, thinking if the books are just "silly storybook for kids" with irrelevant content for modern adult
The leopard seal really got me. You mean to tell me those people never watched, like, Happy Feet?? I also had an animal encyclopedia myself, but there was quite a few mainstream things that involved animals like the leopard seal and sloth that it genuinely baffles me a little bit sometimes.
Well surprise! Not everybody had those .
@@86Kera or interested reading one in library
Commenting for the algorithm my friend! I am unfortunately getting on a flight to go home so I won't be able to watch it fully. But I will definitely watch later!
You and Tim Tim need to get back to the triassic
This filming location 😍. I could watch Clint react all day.
Replying for the same reason!
YO IT'S THAT GUY FROM THE UA-camS
I literally burst out laughing when the great white shark showed up in the first video 😂😂😂
32:47
the silent smile after dropping that cichlid fact just makes me wheeze every time.
Jagdish do that, not jawfish.
Clint, I’m so sorry the video got taken down for something so innocuous…I have to vent to you guys about this AI nonsense.
I’m a fellow studier of zoology/ herpetology, and every time I see one of those dang videos I say the exact thing. “This is fake and not correct information!” And then people respond “how do you know?” And I say “there are two (or more) different species in this video!! This is AI gobbledygook!” It seems they’re targeted at children, and I hope that my suspicion is correct because it’s too scary for me to think adults are falling for it.
Also, recently I saw a guy catching Anoles for fishing. I worked with invasives down in Florida, so I wrote out a very polite comment letting the person know that they shouldn’t use green anoles, the second lizard in the video, and should try to only target browns. I used the common words so people would know what I’m talking about, and you know what someone said?!?!….”bro, the second lizard is brown, not green…”
They were referring to the brownish color of an A. carolinensis in distress…they couldn’t comprehend that they are two different species! I got berated and made fun of by a handful of people because I was “being mean” and “nobody cares about a lizard”…. But I CARE!!! I care so much. What is happening with this anti-intellectual BS on this platform?!? Is it just children?! I don’t understand.
Anyway thank you for giving me a platform. There aren’t many people in my life I can share the frustration and passion for herps with.
I understand your frustation. I often need to remind myself that there is no discussion possible with the uneducated ones.
Anti-intellectualism has been spreading pretty much since Facebook was invented. It’s been getting notably terrible lately, which is why I’m grateful to channels like Clint, miniminuteman, minutephysics, etc for being amazing science educators and fighting against anti-intellectualism
i forget what the phenomenon is called. its some kind of human nature thing, where people treat something outside of their field as fact, but immediately recognize when things inside their field are false ((because they are experts))
and people usualy agree with what makes them feel good/what they logic is reasonable in their first impression.
and things that counter that logic/emotion are painted in a negative light ((even if the new information is objectively correct)
@@georgerobins4110 I agree…and you know it doesn’t bother me at all that people are simply uninterested or uninformed about topic. I love to educate/learn more about these subjects with anyone who’s interested…it’s the vitriol and spite that I have a lot of trouble understanding…. Just being talked down to out of nowhere. Where does all that anger come from? It isn’t as if I’m frequently making controversial statements. I’ve seen others spoken down to for being passionate about completely innocuous topics, like arts and crafting for instance, and have always tried to come to their defense…then they come to my channel, which I use for my art, and leave awful comments. Thank you guys for reminding me I’m not alone. I’m also so grateful for channels like Clint’s. And the people in the comments who also watch these channels are such a breath of fresh air!!
@@ddd09ish1 I think I understand what you’re talking about but I’ve forgotten the phenomenon name as well. I’ve been thinking a lot about what makes a person feel so angry. I think people take being incorrect so personally because they must feel it’s a direct attack on their identity or their worldview. It’s uncomfortable for anyone to feel as though their paradigm is under attack, myself included, even if that isn’t someone’s intent…so maybe people are immediately on the defensive when presented with a counterpoint or differing opinion. It never feels good to say “you’re right, i was wrong.”, but those words often lead to some pretty remarkable and enlightening discussions.
A fun fact about the cyclops goat! That particular one shown in the video was considered a miracle due to it being the only known (or one of very very few) cases of cyclopia that survived past the 15 hour mark. She lived for at least 8 days, though I can’t find much else about how much longer she lived past that point due to the only article I could find about her being locked behind a paywall. She likely didn’t live much longer, but the fact she survived as long as she did was a bit of a miracle in of itself. Morally- questionable.. I can’t imagine her quality of life was very good. But it’s fascinating at least!
I love the breakdown of each of these videos in a gentle, logical manner. I also love how Clint identifies species in the footage so we get to learn how to spot these things for ourselves. ❤ True educator ❤
I've seen worse video's stay monetized over that iguana bite. I'm really sorry UA-cam flagged something like that, especially since it didn't even show it bleeding yet.
Their reason was “it’s dangerous to show this to people because they might imitate it” but like… Clint literally says “this is very stupid, don’t do it”
I suspect AI was utilized.
Some people make a living getting bitten/stung on UA-cam
Me too, it shows that yt doesnt take context into consideration.
I've stepped on a large snapping turtle before while crossing a slow stream back in PA when I was 10ish. He didn't take a toe, or anything, just swam away. The only injury was me falling on my rear, and a near heart attack when a big rock started swimming up the stream.
I loved seeing the maned wolf video. I worked with them at the zoo for a few years. They were so shy. I miss working with them, they are amazing.
Maned Wolves are my favorite animals. I wish more people knew about them and appreciated them, because then maybe we'd have more luck on the conservation front.❤
I could literally use my shark knowledge from animal crossing on that first video lmfao
Wild Animals: (Try to eat each other)
AI Narrator: And they were the best of friends.
Clint: You can identify sevengill sharks in a few ways.
Me: They have seven gills?
Clint: The spots and the shape of the caudal fins.
Me: Ah yes obviously.
Just how much people anthropomorphize wild animals, never ceases to blow my mind!
Seriously lmao I lost it with the person saying the shark rolled its eyes 😂
Those beans glued on the legs triggered trypophobia. My skin is still crawling.
Same
Right? That was one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen in my life 🤮
Yeah, I know they aren’t real ticks but I just can’t stand looking at it.
The way the guy just laid there in the water pretend that those are ticks all over his leg like that pretend that he was dead and then just suddenly rose up from the dead and to wash off the ticks and they're still on him and first of all if those were real ticks how do you let that many crawl and latch on to you like that without noticing and I'm pretty sure ticks won't gather in that one spot yeah that one video is fake
HAHAHAHAHA YESSSSS THE GUY TRYNA GROW BEANS ON HIS LEG IS STILL HERE. arguably my favorite video in the whole collection because it just makes me feel so completely insane
Looks like he's trying to fix nitrogen in his leg to increase leg fertility.
I feel like I need way more context and information about that one… like, what? How? Why? I am so incredibly confused I have trouble putting my confusion into words. Help!!!
It was not better for me that it was beans... I am so confused I am disturbed.
A tiger shark, in feeding mode, isn't going after a person.. its focused on the turtle.. but if you end up in its mouth accidentally. I mean, you're already in there, and it _is_ in feeding mode, its probably going to go ahead and finish taking a nibble. They aren't exactly sharks known for being picky.
I discovered you through the original video and immediatly loved your joyfulness Clint! It's such a breath of fresh air to discover passionate, knowledgable, entertaining educators.on this platform and you are definetly one of them!
UA-cam rarely makes sense in how they treat their best content creators, whatever helps, Clint, just let your fans know, we’re here to help-aaaand wanting react videos is a guilty pleasure I partake in too so that certainly helps 😂
When we lived in northern AZ, a pronghorn ran into my husband's car in rush hour traffic. What are they running from, seriously. He was left with a dented car and a few tufts of fur, as it ran across 3 more lanes of highway into some trees.
I recognized that thing immediately. I like them, they look cool.
Eta- We also had another animal that looks like other animals but is its own thing- javelina! I'd love a javelina video, they're an interesting animal.
A pronghorn raced my car along a road in Montana. Managed 60 mph over short distances, as far as I could tell, though Wikipedia says they max out around 55. Fortunately I never had a collision with one.
you’re so good to us for giving us extra content in an already hour long video 😭
That shark video was absolutely nutty. Dumb and ridiculous, but nutty.
When asked what kind of ungulate head ornamentation they wanted, Pronghorns really said “Yes”. 😂
My mom, my work colleagues, and my friends often showed me these tiktok videos where they stitch unrelated animal videos to make a seemingly continuous story. Otters showing gratitude to humans, an AI dog rescuing an AI toddler in a flood, etc. I usually end up spending the next 10-15 minutes explaining how the narrative is not true, and invariably I will point them to watch your video and channel.
I can’t stand those fake ‘wholesome animal stories.’ They don’t even try to make them convincing.
At least this one didn't try to claim that a video of dogs hunting a bear to exhaustion was a dog bear friendship.
@@petergerdes1094omg I haven’t seen that one, WTF-
Especially annoying because there’s already enough *actually cute* animal videos out there. Making up stuff is unnecessary, and just makes (smart) people more cynical.
The 7 gilled shark is actually adorable 🥺
Adorable... because it _cannot_ eat you?
_Oi!_
The honey badger is just like: "If you want to eat me, it'll cost you"
The internet makes no sense but thankfully we have Clint here in our corner trying to bring order and reason back to the chaos
33:03 beatific smile after "And suddenly all the eggs in her mouth are fertilized"
I’ll say it again, I agree the dragons likely don’t have a strategy. But they do know to bite things and follow a bleeding injured thing!
The documentaries I’ve seen usually frame it that way. They do usually talk about the bacteria or venom, but they don’t go so far as to frame is as strategy. Just big lizard bites big prey and follows the injured prey.
The video you showed pushed an anthropomorphized narrative for sure.
That being said the documentaries do still tend to depict the dragon's hunting methods in a misleading manner, claiming the dragons bite and follow the injured animal long distances or for long lengths of time, when what they actually are filming are much more likely dragons that just happened to be in the area when the injured animal succumbed (if you think about it, no film maker is going to be able to follow a injured animal like that for days to begin with, they have to sleep after all). Actual observations on the dragons hunting habits suggest they usually kill an animal they target in the initial encounter, and if it escapes then for that dragon it is basically a failed hunt. Even if the animal dies later (and it's not uncommon for them to recover from the bites, making it even more pointless for the dragon to waste time following them), it is much more likely other dragons will be the ones to benefit.

Philosophy and zoology!
@@lisaroper421philosophy and science team up more often than one would think!
Yes, UA-cam demonetize the video warning people of the dangers of being an idiot around iguanas, that will definitely help.
This happens all the time to Ann Reardon (a food scientist and educator) when she’s literally warning about the dangers of viral cooking “hacks” and “pranks”
The original videos don’t get taken down, but hers does?!
I gotta say, you have completely changed how I view snapping turtles. They lived in a pond that I used to frequent as a child, and I was TERRIFIED of them! My grandfather--who liked to spin yarns--had "stories" about friends who went swimming and had toes bitten off.
I also erroneously believed (based on the name alone) that Alligator snapping turtles would be more dangerous 😮
that opening was ridiculous and mildly infuriating already! Cant wait to rewatch and enjoy this rerelease/directors cut xD
UA-cam: How dare you upload a video where you caution against harassing wild animals that are potentially dangerous, get striked!
Maned wolves look like foxes but are called "wolves," are actually neither, but they ARE fish! 😮
See if you can make your case that they are fish without resorting to; 'can't evolve out of a clade', 'Sarcopterygii' and the like...
The best thing about being technically correct..... it annoys the pedantic! 😅
@@furiouskaiser9914 No point made on the claim.
@@Dr.Ian-Plect I don't think you understand how reasoning works. If clade classification is the reason that it's true that maned wolves are fish, then you don't need another alternative reason to classify them as fish. The classification system you choose to use and accept is what determines what classifications different organisms are given.
Clearly you already know why a maned wolf is a fish. If you have a problem with or disagree with the "can't evolve out of a clade" reasoning, then you should be arguing your case for why that system is faulty, or why you think a different system is better, rather than trying to call people out for just stating facts according to that given system. If your only point is that the fish classification is only true if you accept that you can't evolve out of a clade, then all you've done is correctly identified the transitive property and I don't see the point of your comment.
@@maxcasteel2141 I understand it well, I'm a zoologist, I just disagree with the specifics. I've copied this part from a previous exchange.
----------------
So, we evolved from a group of fish called the lobe-finned fish. the clade Sarcopterygii, members are called sarcopterygians. So as all those groups within evolved from lobe-finned fish, you may have heard the trope 'we are fish'. Another trope you may have heard is 'you can't outgrow your ancestry', a point noting that you will always have traits associated and originating in a common ancestor. People take these 2 points together, namely - you can't outgrow your ancestry - we are sarcopterygians ...and derive 'we are fish' from it!
My point against that is on the grounds that being a sarcopterygian only states you have (or should only!) the primitive traits obtained from lobe-finned fish and evolved from them, and are members of that clade, not that you _are_ a fish. To _be_ a fish means you have _all_ the traits traditionally associated with being defined and designated a fish. Humans do not meet those criteria.
Unless I’m mistaken, those “baby shark” fish in the first mind-numbing video aren’t Remoras, they’re way too big and there’s no suction fin on any of them. They look like Cobias, which are unrelated to Remoras iirc but do heavily resemble Remoras when young. Same stripes.
I think you're probably right
Indeed. Those are definitely cobia cruising with that tiger 🤙🏻
Okay, the headless "moose" is an elk. In Europe, where the name first arose. Elk had been wiped out from England by the time that North America was being settled and the only memory of it was that it was a large deer. So when settlers first saw our wapitis they put the European name of "elk" on them. Moose were found later and we used the native term for them.
Thank you. I don't count Americans in this, but I cringe whenever I see fellow Europeans, like in Sweden, say "we have lots of MOOSE in the forest". No we don't! We have ELK!
I understand we will probably never be able to convince Americans to call Alces alces "elk", but maybe they could just ditch the word "elk" altogether, keep calling Alces alces "moose", and just please call Cervus canadensis "wapiti" or "Canada deer".
The only tiktoks I see are through the Clint filter. thanks for doing the dirty work for us
Good thing my memory is terrible, I can enjoy this video again
I love how in the badger leopard video you can just hear the constant shutter of cameras clicking😂
Nice reference Coyote! Dr. Alan Grant uses the line "The point is, you are alive when they start to eat you. So you know, try to show a little respect." to the little boy at the dig site while discussing Velociraptors in Jurassic Park (1993).
Sucks to see Clint get hit with the demonitzation hammer too... but I am glad to see more of this!
I was nearly yelling at my screen over this shark video in the beginning. "That ain't the same shark you dunce, that ain't even the same SPECIES! Wait WHAT?! That is an entirely different species AGAIN!!!" And so on. What a trip. I hate tiktoks like that...
People aren’t very observant…
Clint Laidlaw is the most sincere people on this platform, his honesty and passion are to be commended. What a cynical move from UA-cam, to me, much akin to theft.
I really hope this version gets at least as many views as the other. Clint, you're awesome and your channel is my favorite on UA-cam. I can't wait to become a stinkin' rad fan!
I'll never forget the time I was camping and spent an hour handfeeding a huge snapper. He climbed out to grab pieces of chicken and his head was bigger than my hand.
It was amazing
🇨🇦
By the way that paddle boarder is called Brodie. At least he really sounds like him, he runs a UA-cam adventure/survival channel called YBS Youngbloods. He's the same guy as the video where a transparent boat has a sea snake passing by. He's probably just having a lot of fun there
You don't have to twist my arm to rewatch Clint content
I hate the beads thing. I know it's not real but it still tricks my brain into nightmare zones.
@meisteremm honestly there's no rational reason behind the feeling, just a very strong "oh god why" when watching the video
@meisteremmLook up trypophobia
19:23 the Jellyfish of Theseus…
The person bitten by the snapper 😂 baby talking it. It's like "why friend-shaped if not friend??"
Sorry you had to remake this video but happy we all got to watch it! 🐍
If it’s possible to postpone showing the iguana bite until after the first minute in future videos it might help avoid the censorship hammer.
I hear the first minute of videos get judged extra strictly by YT.
Glad to see it back, hopefully UA-cam doesn’t pull any more shady nonsense
"UnKnOwN CREATURE!!!!!111" and its just a fucking wet sloth. lmao, tiktok..
49:04 when you're eating spaghetti with a fork
Here to support you, Clint! We'll make this video just as popular
I absolutely love these videos. Thanks for bringing attention to the misinformation, and the stupidity of humans, as a whole.
I liked the first version of the video, but the additions were great and I'm going to have my kids watch it for part of their media literacy class. Thanks!
Seagull eel was super adorable. It was just twirling spaghetti ❤
What kind of eel is it?
6:35 I don’t think those fish are common remoras ( _Remora remora_ ). The caudal fin are quite different, the one swimming close to the left flank of the lemon shark of the center has a longitudinal stripe (like the live or slender sharksucker _Echeneis naucrates_ ). On the other hand, the shape and size of the dorsal fins are different, specially in the larger fish swimming at a certain distance from the lemon shark.
Cobia (Rachycentron canadum)
@@DeliaAnderson-nz6qp, yep, they resemble much more that cobia, and also in size.
For a shark, biting a human is like finding that tiny piece of eggshell in your food
Did not expect to learn about a male fish that ejaculates into a female fishs mouth
But this is clint, sooo 😂
I would love to see you do a video on the evolution of venomous and poisonous animals. Love your show, please keep them coming.
These are some of my favorite videos of yours! I now constantly think of anhingas because you taught me what they are in your first zoologist react!! Keep up the amazing videos! They’re so educational and entertaining ☺️
I was completely prepared to rewatch this, and was more than delighted to start with a new video....oh boy...was that first video a painful doozy
Completely unfair of youtube. “You can’t make money off of this as it’s extremely irresponsible to show, but we totally can 👍”
I’ll gladly rewatch, keep up the great work Clint and team
The thing about these animals being able to tell the difference between inanimate objects and body parts is interesting. It really makes sense though when you think about it. It wouldn't be good for them to react every time the wind blows a blade of grass or a branch into them, or if a piece of wood hits them while floating down a stream.
0:17 the face you made seriously had me howling 🤣🤣
I will leave literally any video I’m watching THE SECOND I get a notification from Clint!!!
Hell yea, a person of culture!
love love love clints reptiles! these videos always make my day!
49:06 I was thinking it looked like a seagull too! 😂 like an eel mixed with a seagull, a ellgull if you will
Eel gull sounds like a real animal a zoologist would come up with 😂
19:21 Ngl this is one of the most awesome and uplifting things I've heard in a while. The original cellular ancestor could be argued to be living on through us and all cellular life on earth for billions of years on end. Right up there with being made of stardust.
God that first tiktok brought me so much pain
Hi clint. I'm always up for rewatching your videos! Much love from Ontario 🇨🇦
Howdy neighbour! I too live in Ontario 🇨🇦 and also love watching Clint's videos❣️
Scary animals? Leopards, naahh. Sharks, naaahhh. Honey badgers? Ummm. I think I have a pressing appointment.
Leopards are pretty scary. Honey badgers are generally fairly chill if you leave them alone, but leopards can and do attack and eat people (usually children).
Demonetized ? Thats crazy! I can’t believe they did that to your video. It was SOO interesting & fun to watch
I would not be mad if you keep doing these tik tok react videos!
I clicked because it looked interesting, I stayed because the way your face lights up when you talk about this is inspiring.
Liking and rewatching for the algorithm. Lucky its a good video to rewatch
Your videos are so interesting!
The spiral sharks eggs look really cool
