The ostrich is such a unique bird it can be hard to know where to start. Flightless and songless, they are the tallest, heaviest and fastest of any avian species on the planet. Contrary to popular opinion, ostriches don’t actually stick their heads in the sand. But especially when it comes to mating and breeding, they display extraordinary behavior, from the male mating ‘dance’ to the female tendency to share nests. 🥚
Filmed in Namibia, one of the hot, dry climates in which ostriches make their home, our new video explores the fascinating lives of these intelligent birds.

Meerkat: Watching ostrich porn
I mean it can be interesting even if you are not a furry
ostrich blinks
owl: W I D E - E Y E D
this is straight up ostrich voyeurism
Meerkat is always watching. She has see the wort the desert has to offer. She flinches at nothing! She remains at her post no matter what!

The meerkat has seen things.
😂
True
You can see it in his emotionless eyes
At first i was wondering why you were talking about meerkats. This is about ostriches not meerkats. Then... Oh
lmao
I thought it was going to be some sort of universal mothering instincts, but nooooo. That was some Game of Thrones shit putting the concubine kids as meat shield.
Ikr. Nature is scary....
Regarding the survival of ostriches in general: the established brooding habits of ostriches has nothing really to do with the known advantages bestowed on the alpha female and her eggs. Instead, it has everything to do with the reduced vulnerability given to egg-laying females. Simply put, in a world full of opportunistic predators, it’s massively maladaptive to have multiple brooding ostriches exposed to vulnerability, as opposed to one alpha female sitting on all of the eggs.
@@richardwalton6993 g
@@richardwalton6993 so in this putting all eggs in the same basket is the adaptive strategy
It works and effective
Ngl, first time hearing an ostrich make a sound
Dunno what I expected but this wasn't it
Ikr it was way deeper than expected

Also a single nest can be defended better than mutltiple nests.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The meerkat is like wth did I just walk into
"The largest bird on earth"
RIP the Moa gone but never forgotten, hopefully we can clone them back from the dead
Yes, sadly
Don't forget the elephant bird too!

The elephant bird was bigger
the Elephant bird was bigger
Is it really ethical, though?
Ostriches : (matin:)
Meerkat : 👁️👄👁️
Ostrich at 1:08: I'M READY I'M READY I'M READY I'M READY!
1:57 I was as shocked as that meerkat😳😲😱
Your username is kinda shocking too-
@@acidmizer now you got some in your mind
Yoo the way that Lemur looked back at the camera at 2:05 like, "did yall see that?!" That shi got me 😆 🤣
That was a meerkat
m8 you think that's a LEMUR? TF?
Lemur! Imma cry
IKR LMAO
Ok guys we get it it's a meerkat not a lemur can we acknowledge the point of the comment? It was funny
Whoa, this is the first time I see the back of an ostrich's head, i.e. ears. Just whoa 😮
I like how they use kilometer and kilogram
Thanks! :)
I wish theyd use both
@@Chanhee The whole world uses the kilogram and kilometer, fuck outta here
It Europe heritage, they use km, kg, met,unlike American that opted to another system.
@@abdulabadkumbati664 If you didn't grow up using the metric system and you don't use it regularly it's extremely difficult to visualize. The metric system is inherently better but the same can't be said for your attitude. The country one is born in is outside our control so quit acting like a child.
That mothafucking meerkat😂😂
Just watching them
Glad you enjoy it 😁.
@@terramater he enjoyed watching ostrich hentai?
XD
@@hamz5791 i mean who dosent like some good nature hentai? (humans)
BMA
You as well...
2:01 that was x-rated stuff for that poor meerkat, he can never unsee
I just would like to say, i have watched some of your videos and have to say in my 30 years of watching nature documentaries, yours are #1. Please publish more and thank you so much.
Wow I actually had no idea Ostriches had a third eyelid! They really are descendants of the dinos!
Doesn't camels have three aswell? I think?
Almost desert animal have 3 eyelids
@@zxcv97 True. And many other animals have, some are non-working, like primates.
Ask your dog how many they have.
Actually they aren't just descendants, they are also considered the only living dinosaurs themselves!
It's funny how small their heads are relative to their body
The body is probably a lot smaller than the feathers make it look.
@@pepesylvia848 it’s 150 kg mate. That’s twice the size of normal human.
@@buckethead133 A human with good hand weapons who's good with hand weapons would make mincemeat of an ostrich that tried to attack. But without any weapons, you're kind of at their mercy.
The last time I checked some bird brains voted for Biden.
@@firstlast1357 There wasn't a reason to vote for Trump. By the end of his term he was basically running for re-election entirely on personality, and hollow or non-existent fulfillment of promises.
The idea of Trump was good, but the execution was a tremendous failure.

My Dad brought back an Ostrich egg one time when he came back from one of his trips to Africa... that thing was huge... way bigger than an American softball.

When I was 10 we visit a ostrich sanctuary and I remember being so scared of them but amused by their fathers and giant eggs, also is kinda of amazing how sweet they were with us and how powerful their legs are
that eggs saving method is amazing
Thank you terra matters for the additional knowledge
Thanks for watching!
the ads got me here...now I'm subscribed.
Welcome! 🤗
Ostriches really do be impresive and a little weird, if in captivity or in a farm some will be atracted to the owner im still confused as of why but i heard beacuse you have 2 big legs, and the mating dance is hillariously good

The largest dinosaur alive today. I love the ratite birds so much. They give us a great view of what some of the extinct dinosaurs might have looked, sounded and even behaved like.
that meerkat is traumatized
Totally amazing! I never knew anything of their mating behaviors or egg laying behaviors. Thanks for sharing.
That ostrich was

These mugs got 👂 ears in the back of they HEAD??🤭😂!!
I love this biiird
1:22. "this one is ready to mate" owl: "wait what?"
Owl and meerkat: we've seen some shît
They should name this ostrich "Casanova" because of how many he was mating with.
I died when I seen the rabbit 🐇 shocked 😭😭😭😂🤣
Not to mention that it turns out that the more baby ostriches in a “flock” the higher the survival chance for each baby.
Thank god for that 3rd 👁 lid😀
Why does it sounds like a honest review of a new smartphone?
Poor Meerkat 😂😂
Meerkats was thugging to the beat
I fed one!!! He looked me right in the eye!
For the love of God, now go and watch " ostrich song by zefrank" 🤣
Wow it can *RUN*
Oddly enough, I cried.
she sacrificed the eggs of her husband's mistresses. Hmm...makes sense.
Meerkat has seen things 👀. 😂😭
Hi lovely docu.
However you forgot to mention the Ostriches rain prediction capabilities.
The male ostrich has to ensure that the eggs will hatch when the rains start otherwise all the hatchling will die. If he fails his Harem often leaves him, if he succeeds they stay.
We use the mating period of the ostriches as a guide when the rains will come. I live in Afrika Namibia.
And they were really good as the villains in The Dark Crystal.
Great video! Though I thought it was the male ostrich that incubated the eggs.
I guess you really can put all of your eggs in one basket LOL ha ha ha
Good one lol
TY 😊
Built different
The look on that meerkat’s face was classic. “Feck this shite. I’m out....”
Share your man , share your nest ,share your home! There is always love in sharing

Ostrich: SUM BUDDY GON GET HUR SHE DANCIN LIKE A STRIPPA
Owl: wtf
2:02
"😵💫🤯...yuuuck!!
I ain't seen nuttin'!!😣"
Wow👏👌
It’s the sacrificing other ppls eggs for me
I dance like that ostrich when i have to use the restroom
wow the Ostrich is more like an alien or a dinosaur than anything else
Built different.
True that!
Impressive
If an ostrich was a predatory creature and had the intelligence of at least a Crow... It would be extremely terrifying.
