I’ve got a few ideas for future episodes: - world’s most patient - world’s stickiest - world’s happiest - world’s best camouflaged - world’s best symbiosis
For the 'patient' I just have this video of the Orang Utan mom in my head whose baby is climbing all around her and she's just unbothered and holds its leg like 'no we don't do that while we're little, anyway I'm gonna keep eating' 😂
Oooo I got one for worlds stickiest. It may have been shown before but it’s the snot eel and shoots goo at predators and it can clog up their gills and also can lock their jaw for them to escape :3
This episode was such an emotional roller coaster lol 😂😂😂 “Baby whale gets angry >:( and paralyzes a man” “Whale hunting is a brutal, merciless and sometimes slow death for a whale” “Look at this bug! He looks so 🥺!!” “I ate that bug.”
I know that Sloth's harbor a fungus and moth's, and many fish are host to parasites. I think a cool episode would be what animals are host to the most. Thanks for the video!
Like Maya correctly deduced, decibels are a logarithmic scale, where an increase of 10DB means the sound has 10 times more energy (or 10 times louder). An average human shout is 80 Db, the loudest recorded human sound is 129 Db, which might seem close to the howler monkeys, but is in fact over 10 times quieter. It also means that the Krakatoa eruption was as loud as 100.000.000 times sperm whales.
@@valentinpicart He's right that a 10dB difference is equivalent to 10-fold difference in the energy of the pressure wave but you're right that this is experienced by the human ear as a 2-fold difference in loudness 😁
I just had a dream where I was on a boat and a volcano similar to Krakatoa erupted and 3 random men landed on our boat and for some reason I went underwater and saw a freiking GIGANTIC SPERM WHALE and it was so scary This was the last video I saw before I went to sleep, but it’s still unusual that my brain combined the information learned from this video
If anyone is interested in how the cicada's tymbal works there is a fantastic video by Smarter Every Day that shows it in slow motion. it functions a lot differently than you might think
For the past month, I’ve listened to old worlds wildest episodes to fall asleep at night. New episodes are so exciting now, ❤ new content to be added to the weekly rotation❤
I’m in northern Alabama and we have a pool and had so many cicadas die and fall from the trees that we had a whole layer on the top of our pool almost every day
when I was a kid for like three summers in a row i collected every cicada shell i found and added them to a plastic bag in my room, i dont really know why, i think i just liked the bug and was a fan of their shells. since they were so delicate, they all mostly disintegrated except for the occasional arm though, so instead of a cool cicada shell collection i had cicada powder
I remember reading with the periodical cicadas that the reason could be it's beneficial not to have predators specializing at eating you. If they emerge every year, there could be like insectivores expecting the snack every year when they have young. You can't specialize at eating something that only pops out every 13 years though.
It was mentioned briefly at the end, but yes, decibels are an exponential(/logarithmic) measurement, each 10 dB increase represents a 10x increase in power, but because of the way sound propagates and is detected, it is APPROXIMATELY a doubling of perceived loudness. So when compared to the sperm whale clicks, the sound of Krakatoa erupting is estimated to be around one hundred million (100 000 000) times more powerful and would, to us, sound about 256 times louder - the same ratio between dead silence and a busy highway
Another fascinating episode with some incredible wildlife facts...this has quickly turned into one of my favorite channels on UA-cam. Btw, was Maya slightly tipsy today!😊
i live in Tennessee and we had both types of cicadas (it was magical). my bf and i got back from a concert and saw a bunch molting so we sat outside and watched them for hours. best bug ever
The loudest known bird record holder is the White bellbird (Procnias albus), from South America hitting 125 dB. The previous record holder was the Screaming piha (Lipaugus vociferans), also from South America hitting 116 dB.
i have been here from the beginning and i will be here until the end u will never get rid of me i am a passionate animal lover and learner thank u have a nice day everyone!
Smarter Every Day did a slowmo video of how cicadas make their noise! IIRC there's an initial sound when the cicadas essentially cave in the tymbal and continue making sounds as each section of the tymbal clicks back into place.
Hey guys! I love the show so much. I listen in my car, could you maybe balance the audio a bit more? It's really tough to hear the quiz portion or when either of you speak really quietly
About the cicadas cycle: I heard/read that these are typically "larger" prime numbers (13 and 17 are both prime), so it's less easy for predators to remember when it will happen. I don't know if there's any evidence for this though.
The channel Smarter Everyday did a really cool video about how cicadas make noise. They're are awesome slowmo videos showing what it is like when they make the noise!
connors cicada story remonded me of when i sniffed in a fruit fly down my nose at an overnight camp, we were lining up to enter the foodhall and the fruit fly decided to fly right infront of my nostril as i sniffed in my runny nose ( i have pollen allergies and they were bad that day) the sniff was powerful enough to make it go down into my mouth and i spit it out.... anyways how yall doin
Please check out Smarter Everyday's video about Cicadas. He got great slow mo video of how their tymbals move/work. They're kinda like rigid accordions that make the sound just by snapping against itself but with a hollow resonance chamber in its body
I hope cicadas are at least and honorable mention… ok cool nevermind 😭 cicadas are so cool. Im in Maryland and theyre just clumsy lil guys! It wasn’t as crazy here as i thought it would be but they cute friends
I live in St. Louis and it wasn’t quite as bad as that cicada photo but I’d go running and they’d cut through my noise cancelling buds and I’d get headbutted by no less than 5
For the most part Water boatman aren't typically Flea size, most are bigger maxing out at around 12mm give or take. There is a family Micronectidae (Pygmy water boatman) where Flea size Water boatman can be found, like the Lesser water boatman (Micronecta scholtzi), only maxing at about 2mm so typically Flea size. In the US the word Bug is over used on Arthropod that aren't Bugs, but Water boatman (and Cicada) being Hemiptera are true bugs.
Does Maya’s buzzer say “peepopog wow!” If not, why not? Also world’s largest recoded specimen in history? Or world’s last known specimen of extinct species. Or oldest rediscovered (or rumored to still exist) species thought to be extinct.
I want to shop for clothes with Maya!! She always has the coolest stuff and most times its thrifted. 19:17 can anyone tell me what to google so I can see this meme?? Havent heard of it
I love that "Maya" is now a standard unit of measurement for this podcast. It makes is easy to put things into perspective and it's hilarious.
Americans will use anything but the metric system 😂
@@klanmasterio Awa is 1.12 Maya, Georgie is .03 Maya, Chips ahoy is 2/100000th Maya. It's just so convenient.
@@taylorstumpp4005 I agree for big stuff, but measuring rats or frogs in mayas is crazy xD
@@klanmasterio At least it's not 'Football (Hand Egg) field' measurement!😂
The lengths Maya goes for the animals
I love how maya uses horse as form of measurement, and Connor uses maya's as measurement
Worlds freakiest. Animals who reproduce in the wildest ways
SNAIIIILS
This is my new lawn mowing podcast, it takes about one episode to complete my lawn
Can we get a lawn mowing rate measurement of Mayas squared per World's Wildest episode?
@@sophieYoffe I hate that this made complete sense
Actually the perfect episode to mow your lawn to!
@@sophieYoffe lmfao
How can you hear 😂
Forget the metric system, real ones measure in Mayas and horses exclusively
1 maya is 100lbs. 1 horse is 1000lbs its actually a used system 😊

Maybe we should consider Cicadas a subterranean species. Cause they only come up to reproduce and die.

Re-listening to this in the morning. surprised Connor's yelling at the end didn't wake me up last night

"I bet I could beat the record now." is so funny.😂
42:30 I only know it from that episode of Spongebob where Squidward yells it as he is dressed as a volcano lol.
