      In the vast digital savannah of UA-cam, we find a remarkable comment from none other than the UA-cam company itself. It appears that this corporate entity is attempting a rather fascinating feat - disguising itself as a humble human, blending in with the commenters, as if it were a rare chameleon among its prey.
      Behold, as UA-cam, in its peculiar bid for engagement, steps onto the stage of this comment section. The corporate entity adopts a tone of friendly camaraderie, attempting to establish a connection with its fellow netizens.
      We observe the UA-cam commenters react with a mix of surprise and amusement. They are akin to the curious meerkats, standing upright and peering intently at this unusual interloper, wondering if it truly possesses the spirit of a human being.
      As the UA-cam comment, disguised as a human, continues its interactions, it is a moment of profound intrigue in the online wilderness. Will this corporate entity successfully integrate into the digital ecosystem, or will the commenters eventually discern its true identity, as a jaguar might reveal itself amidst the dense Amazonian undergrowth?
      Only time will unveil the outcome of this peculiar experiment in the captivating realm of UA-cam comments, where the line between corporation and individual becomes blurred, much like the intricate dance of predator and prey in the natural world.

      @@emmafountain2059 - I might have misunderstood your comment, but I don't think the flying creatures back then were dinosaurs... or at least not all of them... pterodactyls weren't, I think. Actual dinosaurs were the walking land-bois with wishbones and other shit. Chickens evolved from the tyrannosaurus rex, and the birds we have today evolved like that, not from the flying creatures back then... I THINK. The reality might be a mix here, I dunno. Either way, birds are classified as dinosaurs, because creatures never lose the category they attain, even if they are currently in a new category, is how the system works.

      Wild Emu are not inherently aggressive. An Emu is going to run from you, not confront you, however they are very protective of their young. You can count the total number of reported Emu attacks on one hand, meanwhile Cassowary attack a couple hundred people each year.

    Weird comment but I am reading a series, children of time, and I this video hits different after reading most of it. Long story short it is a space scifi that is like the planet of the apes but instead its jumping spiders (in the first book), and the way the different animals articulate their feelings made me appreciate this type of content so much more. The way maya interacts with these animals makes me believe she has a different kind of empathy that is lacking in the rest of us. Being able to learn different species way of communicating is extremely complex and while maya still understands she doesn't know everything, she has a very inspiring way of working through communication barriers. TLDR I think if aliens land within 3000 miles of her I vote she is our ambassador.
    P.S. You should name noodle, Bianca (reference to children of time)

    I love animals, and I wish I had more opportunities to experience them. It's part of why I decided to start horse riding lessons during high school. Getting to know you through other channels I watch is one of the coolest things I've seen, and seeing Stompy in my recommended videos always makes me happy.
