Does it feel great when your country was mentioned by other countries that dont expect people from that country they mentions are not gonna watch ! why did I say ? I live in Philippines
I can't believe this channel has been around almost two years and is barely at 100k subscribers, the narration is amazing and so is the cinematography. It's a shame you haven't been introduced to a wider audience. Good luck for the future guys
Well I've been watching nature related channels from 6,7 years and believe me u guys have opened up a new angle of nature that everyone else was kind of missing
I think most people don't realize how much they change themselves to fit in and how much our enviornment shapes us. We do much of it subconsciously. It's just part of being human and being part of a certain culture. Granted, "fitting in" comes easier to some, than others, but everyone does it to some extent. I often wonder how I might have been a different person had I grown up somewhere else, far away, and completely different.
More like, blending. Some humans want to "*fit in*" to be accepted among a certain class of society. Seahorses and other creatures are *blending in* to protect themselves. Blending in and fitting in are essentially two different things. One is focused towards a trend or style by choice, the other has a life purpose that is aimed towards survival.
*Pygmy Seahorses: Masters of Camouflage* Tiny and delicate, pygmy seahorses survive by attaching to vibrant corals where they become nearly invisible to both predators and researchers. Now, biologists at the ***** have successfully bred them in captivity for the first time. Finally, they're able to study the seahorses' amazing act of camouflage up close.

We are like Pygmy seahorses. We are born neutral, small and plain creatures. And then we are put into an environment that begins to define us. Our parents may be orange, but we may turn out purple.
Tbh though, I kinda disagreed with that line. We humans _don't_ think of ourselves as fixed, because we're not. We're more complex and have more capacity for individual expression (well, some of us; note the comment above mine for a counterexample). Having to stick to the exact same organism your whole life because you'll die if you leave sounds a lot more fixed to me lol.
"In the ocean identity can be a fluid and mysterious thing." So very true about any community of people too. You think you know someone, unless you happen to interact with them under different circumstances.
El caballito de mar es un animal de lo más curioso desde su forma hasta su peculiar forma de procreación en la que es el macho el que "pare" las crías, es precioso. 🙋🏻♀️🇪🇸
Probably nothing. Since there's probably no green sea fans they don't have the 'programming' to change to any other colors. They don't look at the colors around them and try to match it, when they're born they basically have a choice between a certain set of polymorphic forms and they become the one best suited to their environment. Another example of this is grasshoppers from the African plains that will turn green when it's humid, regardless of whether or not there's actually living vegetation, brown when it's dry even if surrounded by greenery and black when they detect the smell of smoke and ash even if the area they were in is protected from fire.
Salmon Saladsandwich Fair, I can concede that they won't turn green because green sea fans don't naturally exist. But I still don't understand how they choose which polymorphic form to take. Either it is random/genetic, and they find the fan to match their colour after, or something in them must actively decide which colour to express.
This channel is fantastic. I've been on youtube for what, 10 years? And in those ten years I've subscribed to 44 channels, congrats on being the 45th. You have great footage, great music (I've noticed even subtle things like how the video syncs with the music), and great narration. And the content is great too. Makes me want to donate.
Thank so much for the excellent compliments! We love bringing these videos to UA-cam. If you'd like to support KQED, San Francisco's PBS and NPR affiliate, you can donate here: www.kqed.org/donate/
How can they produce the colors corresponding to the thing they are on, that must be really advanced. Flamingos get pink by eating pink stuff, that seems logical, but just producing any color you are close to seems really advanced....
we were extremely suited for the environment we lived in back in Africa and other warmer climates. we gave that up for inventiveness and joined together in clans. we left our evolutionary fitness in our physical capabilites for our evolutionary fitness in our brains. Our brains, that's what helps us survive.
We became more complex, more emotional, more advanced. Even at this stage however, small groups of people were still really suited for their environments. I.e. Aboriginals would do what was sustainable for the ecosystem. However another group of us wanted to become comfortable, I think? That ideal was pursued and well... Good and bad at the same time.
cortster12 sorry, you are wrong there sparky, "moderation" is not the key, if one side argues evolution is real and the "other" side argues it isn't, that is not an argument that needs an equivocal moderation. evolution is fact and the right be damned, they don't get to teach people bullshit as an "alternative" to a science proven beyond a shadow of a doubt, same with global warming and being gay is not a choice, the left is correct and the right is "unequivocally" wrong on these subjects and more. the right doesn't get to cry foul and get their bullshit spread thru public t.v. politics should be left to pbs political shows and not programming.
***** Let me rephrase that: being a moderate is key. More specifically, a moderate who puts science and reason above all else. Which neither side does.
Every one of your videos leaves me wanting to know more. Well done! Perhaps you could start a channel, "Deeper Look," featuring 5-minute videos on these same topics...
Ladies and gents, prime example of how evolution works... creatures adapting to their surroundings in order to survive! Nature and science are amazing!! Btw this channel should have way way way more subs
Ahhh. Watching from the playlist. Thank you. I didn’t think I needed such a curated playlist, but this was nice. This video is shorter than what I’m used to from Deep Look, but it was a nice video 🥰
I still remember, years ago, i had diving leisure trips in philippines, malapascua to be exact, during one of the dive, the dive master pulled put one magnifying glass in front of this coral. I did not understand what he wanted to do, and finally he pointed to me to look at the coral. I hover around the coral did not know what to do and decided to have a look at the coral. After sometimes, i noticed the “coral” started to move and then i realized it was not a coral. The cutest thing ever
Look at the last clip where a seahorse is beset all side by plankton, that's like you live inside food. Imagine how it would be in your life -- you wake up in the morning, there's a cupcake on your table, on your chair, on the floor, even on your chest!
I was lucky enough to come across a family of pygmy seahorses off the coast of Dumaguete, Philippines, at 30 meters below surface! It was truly amazing.
This channel is so underrated.
Right? I've been telling my friends about it ever since I discovered it last week.
Does it feel great when your country was mentioned by other countries that dont expect people from that country they mentions are not gonna watch ! why did I say ? I live in Philippines
mine too :( the deep look channel should have like a million subscribers cuz it's awesome
i am from the philippines also! 😁🙋
I agree

UA-cam time rules = No 10 minutes videos? = no recognition
+Kevin H.A exactly, and in my opinion that's the shittiest policy ever, good channel like this should have more recognition
Proably it's also about no "flashing" and "booming" editing like on Discovery.
Just enjoy your good wine, sir.
Michael A J I think they experienced a modest boom of subscribers in the last 8 months

aaaah i need to discover it tooo!!
When they started dancing I almost cried cause it was so cute 😂
With that song on the background it was just too perfect.

what if they added a rainbow sea fan they would look fabulous
That is a neat thought; I wonder how they'd all turn out :0

Or a neon sea fan
this channel should have way more subscribers!
We think so too!
no they should not. this is a ad revenue mine.
buddy guy they give useful information, they do

They look like claymation, so adorable. More evidence of triggered adaptation in the end there, i like that.

@Sweet V. it's a seahorse fact. It has been studied
They are such beautiful creatures! I learned something new today!
The video felt so short. I'd love to keep watching those sea horses for an hour.

That's actually a very accurate comparison!
What a beautiful video.
Evan Hershey Thank you, Evan. I hope you like our other videos as well.
I've said it once, and I'll say it again: Deep Look is the best science channel on UA-cam.
“We humans tend to think of who we are as mostly fixed. But in the ocean, identity can be a fluid and mysterious thing.”
Beautiful!
Yeah that's the part I thought was the most unnecessary. We don't need pro homosexual social commentary. Just tell us about the animals

One Word: AMAZING!
Obdachlos Two words - THANK YOU!
This is the most wholesome channel. Please keep it up, love what you do.
Thank you for the kind words!
The Pygmy seahorse courtship dance you captured at 1:14 brought tears to my eyes: kudos to the director and video crew
+Kar Al Many thanks!
+Deep Look Whats the title of the music playing? Its so soothing
+Rawda. K. It's an original score by the very talented Seth Samuel: www.sethgsamuel.com/
These videos are stunning. The music choice, the camera shots, everything. Major props to you guys, keep it up!
that is absolutely beautiful
beautiful! love how fluid the video is underwater. Even enough, so we can see these adorable creatures.
That's absolutely amazing, they take the color that's around them, that's awesome.
So this is the video from which this all started 🎉❤
"In the ocean identity can be a fluid and mysterious thing." So very true about any community of people too. You think you know someone, unless you happen to interact with them under different circumstances.
This are really adorable animals. Thank you for this very informative and lovely video, great work! :D
These creatures always inspire calm. Just magical...

Your videos are literally meditation for me..Thank you so much.
I'm curious on what would happen if the babies were let to grow without any coral at all. Would they come out orange?
Jozshua Cuellar wow! good question!!
Jozshua Cuellar No one knows! But I think it would be hard for them to survive without any corals at all. They have evolved so closely together.
Jozshua Cuellar they'll die. or just like Ian Malcolm said: life, uh, finds a way
Deep Look Maybe give them green or blue coral? How about black coral? Transparent coral? The possibilities are intriguing!
die mabye?
That was some pretty nice narration.
What would happen if they used a green simulated fan (assuming they can live on a fake one) I wonder.
Probably nothing. Since there's probably no green sea fans they don't have the 'programming' to change to any other colors. They don't look at the colors around them and try to match it, when they're born they basically have a choice between a certain set of polymorphic forms and they become the one best suited to their environment.

They involuntarily choose which form to take depending on their surroundings.
Salmon Saladsandwich Yes but I am curious by what mechanism their body can distinguish between their possible environments.
+Blake Hagar I did wonder those questions, I guess we hav to learn more(prob God/aliens created us to be genetic or random)ze world is noice
Seahorses are such pretty creatures, dancing in the water together, so sweetly and innocent. I really adore the bright color of these ones. Wow. ♡
Wow. This is amazing!!

Cool science designed for my attention span!

These are gorgeous.

We could not agree more... what else should we film?
How about beautiful overlooked insects in the world.
A video on the world or bacteria/microscopic life forms!...and if you do so!...please include tardigrade !
I woundnt say insects are beautiful
How can they produce the colors corresponding to the thing they are on, that must be really advanced. Flamingos get pink by eating pink stuff, that seems logical, but just producing any color you are close to seems really advanced....

Dude U R the first comment ever
Brilliant video, there is still so much to discover about these wonderful creatures!
Why does it seem like every animal in the world is perfectly suited and in balance with its environment except for humans?
we were extremely suited for the environment we lived in back in Africa and other warmer climates. we gave that up for inventiveness and joined together in clans. we left our evolutionary fitness in our physical capabilites for our evolutionary fitness in our brains. Our brains, that's what helps us survive.

However another group of us wanted to become comfortable, I think? That ideal was pursued and well... Good and bad at the same time.

as long as there's no politically forced equilibrium of right wing idealism.

Actually those tiny things are brine shrimp - not baby seahorses (thankfully).
Ohhh thank you for clarifying that😉
baby seahorses cannot have babies
The only channel that has an amazing first video
This
Is
amazing.
+Christian Galesias Thanks so much!
if we introduced artificial coral. would the sea horses change colour? doesnt that mean we could produce more vibrant colouration?
I support you tiny gender fluid seahorses

they're not genderfluid their color fluid duh~

what the heck
Theyre color fluid
So interesting! You guys deserve wayyy more views

Awww they look so shy and cute!
I was marvelled by the creatures n their survival instincts...... GLORY be to the one who created all and guided them too on their survival tactics
