Disagree. The island of Mljet in Croatia was a nightmare from hell. 50% of kids used to die of snake bites. The Habsburg emperor Franz Jozef brought the Indian mongooses to the island in 1910 and now there are no snakes on the island. None, zero. In fact, they cleaned all the neighboring islands. The people loved them.
Source? What type of snakes? I doubt that was all the work of Vipera ammodytes, which is usually considered the most dangerous snake that area should have to offer. I find a lot of sources talking about how there were a lot of snakes, but none that talk about the 50% number in particular.
Wrong there are still snakes on that island just no more venomous snakes. Also it wasn't idian mongoose. It as Small asain mongoose. This a perfect example of you have an idea but don't actually know what your talking about
Definitely, look at the horrible rat and rabbit problems that Australia used to suffer from. Florida is still dealing with their massive boa constrictor ,tegu lizard and iguana invasive species problems . Cane toads were a big issue in several places.
There is a 23 foot monster of a crocodile and you are afraid of spiders, that damn thing could swallow you in gulp, but no it's going to bite every last flesh of you and you are afraid of some tinie whiney snakes and spiders.
They got imported to Hawaii also. I don't think they cause as much trouble there. When I vacationed in Hawaii, I saw a toad and picked it up. Toads are nice and tame. But soon my skin was burning - the cane toad has unusually venomous skin. Not too bad really, I just had to wash my hands frequently while handling them.
Perhaps not as bad as what we did years ago in the Southern California region. A city had bats living under a HUGE underpass region, locals were complaining about the bats, concerns about them being rabies carriers. Even though the Center for Disease Control stated that there was no wide-scale concern or problem with this, the city decided to react anyway. So they caught and relocated the bats, it was a very expensive project. Within one year, the mosquito population exploded so badly that the local hospitals were noting that there was a huge amount of diseases from mosquitos impacting the people in the area. There were actual deaths involved. They had to, at great expense, go where they relocated the bats and put them back under the underpass.
Imagine the surprise of those crocodiles on Ramiri Island, when there were suddenly over 1000 humans voluntarily jumping into the water they were living in….. The animals must have thought that it was EVERY croc’s BIRTHDAY……. 😂
This reminds me of an old Warner Brothers cartoon where Porky Pig is sick of seeing a mouse in his apartment. Bugs Bunny convinces him to buy a cat. Mouse moves out but cat annoys Porky so Bugs sells him a dog. Dog chases cat away but dog leaves ‘droppings. Bugs then sells him a tiger and dog vanishes. But tiger keeps Porky scared. So he buys an elephant from handy Bugs. Elephant tears up apartment so Bugs sells him a VERY expensive mouse which scares elephant so much, it runs through a wall…

Even more deadlier islands is Amazonian Island. It's infested with beautiful women, but they'll make your pockets bleed, leading you to homeless & famine.
It is hilarious that these people didn't even consider the nocturnal nature of the venomous snakes and the non-nocturnal nature of the Mongoose animals. Talk about not doing the right research. LOL... Great video.
Many scientists in the world made too many mistakes introducing non natives species and later becoming invasive, and Australia suffered a lot. That Island in Japan is lucky they fixed the problem before its too late
Did you also watch the video? Hanu snakes hunt at night Not all snakes hunt at night Especially when Snake island has different various snakes not just one type of snake@@MrJdebest
I will any day take the crocodile island in comparison to the spider island. Even the snake island is better. Just the sight of these millions of small spiders all over the island freaks me out and I am thousands of miles away!!! 😱😱😱😱
Mongoose were brought to several Caribbean Islands in the hopes of reducing the rat population. The rats fed at night and the mongoose hunted in the daytime. So instead of rats, the mongoose fed on native species. I'm surprised Japan didn't know of this.
Poorly researched. Satellite picture looks like Keeling island. There are several Cocos islands. Also off Costa Rica. Definitely not Cocos off Guam. On article mentions spiders on Costa Rican Cocos Island
Not always, Australia imported dung beatles to deal with the dung from imported cows, a moth to eat imported cactus and lady bugs to eat aphid which were imported accidentally... Hmm maybe the leson from all that is that it would have been simpler not to stuff up in the first place.
Agree, New Zealand and Australia got an alien species called Homo Sapiens, who are known to destroy any native eco system they set foot on, it destroyed 90% of species
Mongoose and Cats are virtually the same. You get them with the expectation that they will take care of your vermin problem but they just lay around being useless.
I remember taking a tour of Martha's Vineyard. The tour guide said that the island was overrun with rodents, so skunks were brought in. Guess what - the island became overrun with skunks.
Another scary one: There is a whole planet floating through space somewhere which is infested with two legged greedy critters destroying their own habitat while thinking of themselves as superior beings
After living on Okinawa for 3 1/2 years, seeing habu snakes, and watching habu-mongoose fights, I recognize this video as a lot of falsehoods. It showed snakes the look nothing like the habus there. And, the mongoose looks very much like a weasel, not the animal shown. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying
Snack Island?! Sign me up! I know it was a typo, but it sounds like paradise ... unless it's just licorice ... then snake island ain't sounding so bad. :)
Out of all the islands that he mention, sharks only resided in the shores around the reunion island so we don't know what is other wild life or any live in that place that are harmful to people. Suppose if there locals already living there, they can never leave the island off shores since its surrounded by sharks.
They tried the same thing in Hawaii back in the 40s and it didn't work. The research was there to be discovered and they didn't apply themselves to it.
Hearing 'Amami Õshima Island' over and over is like hearing 'Mount Fujiyama' over and over. Analogy: it's like someone saying 'Isle of Wight Island' or 'Mount St. Helens Mountain'.
Another island thats even more dangerous is robot pirate and cyborg ninja island. Every year people are explicitly murdered by these two warring factions as they battle to achieve the highest coolness factor in retro-futuristic villainy and terror.

Illinois has yellow sac spiders. I saw 7 when I got up one morning. I found out that they were hanging around on two small trees in my backyard. I cut those trees down and the issue went away. I think they nested on trees due to the amount of insects that landed there.
RABBIT FENCING, black plastic garden fencing kinda rolled up somewhat to intangle the cridders. it works real good. saw many snakes entrapped by the stuff at an abandoned construction site. the whole place just stank of the dead serpents.
St Kitts and Nevis did the same thing. They bought in the mongoose. No Snakes on St Kitts and Nevis anymore, but now they have a mongoose problem.. lol

In Australia, we imported cane toads to eat bugs in cane fields. Bugs too high for cane toads to eat . Now cane toads are in plague proportions.
They got imported to Hawaii also. I don't think they cause as much trouble there. When I vacationed in Hawaii, I saw a toad and picked it up. Toads are nice and tame. But soon my skin was burning - the cane toad has unusually venomous skin. Not too bad really, I just had to wash my hands frequently while handling them.
They also tried Indian Mina birds which are also now a pest species and did nothing for the bugs.
Wasn't Bart Simpson the culprit?
There's a great documentary on the cane toads in Australia

Nocturnal venomous snakes are definitely pretty scary but so are millions of venomous spiders...hmm 🤔
