Me: You lower my blood pressure, I'll make sure you never go hungry or face a physical threat.
Cat: Deal.
Me: Oh and also I'll be picking you up and tickling your tummy a couple of times a day.
Cat: Wait...
If your cat is anything like the cat I had, your cat doesn't need to be afraid of the world, the world needs to be afraid of your cat.
Cats are the only species that domesticated themselves. We had granaries teeming with rodents, they came to eat the rodents and we liked that and were nice to them. And so started a friendship.
Then the little scuzzball goes and gets hit by a car and we spend weeks nursing him back to health

Crabs: Its free real estate
Housing prices in Vancouver have really gotten out of hand..
It’s the only time someone is happy about getting crabs lol 😂
@@soothmoth i've always been jealous of boomers who already had homes in cities like Vancouver or similar cities. My uncle got a zero interest loan from my grandparents to buy a home (he's the youngest, so he got spoiled rotten) for about $200k (adjusting for inflation), they sold it for about $800k 5 years ago, bought a new house with that money, and now that bigger house is worth over $1mil. My dad's gift when he turned 18? A car with a gaping rust hole in the floor that you could see the road through, because he was the oldest son so he needed to be tougher and more self reliant.
*its free renal estate
"You got a friend in me" can be quite literal.

I wonder if the coyotes and badgers have to rediscover mutual benefits every generation or has it been going on long enough for them to be born with a natural trust of each other
What if they organized baby coyote and baby badgers playdates
@@jm98 That would be so cute! But they probably learned from observing the way their parents behaved, I guess
Just shows Theory of Evolution is not perfect.
@@ssa6227 Not really. This video explicitly calls out how some of the animal partnerships actually resulted from co-evolution (some species of goby and shrimp literally _need_ to form partnerships with another another, and some mite + beetle partnerships are legitimately lifelong due to their clutches being laid and born right next to each other in the same chamber). Coyotes and badgers, at least in areas where their partnership is likely/necessary, have also likely been allies long enough for individuals to be born with some natural trust, especially given coyotes and badgers wouldn't really be enemies if they weren't teammates.
@@mrreyes5004 Are you telling me that Theory of Evolution is perfect?

Scientists: How can we study the relationship between frogs and spiders?

Everybody else: I see no problem with this
When I worked at a beef farm the cattle went ouside every day all year round. The birds knew this and crows among other went on the back and took ticks and stuff like that. And fur when the wintercoating fell of. The birds used the fur when nesting. The cattle loved it when the claws scratched the back and when they took the ticks.

Shrimp throuples make me laugh and I want to know more
Check my channel, I've always had pairs in my aquariums and have multiple videos with these. Please leave comments.
The shrimp is called a pistol shrimp, they are blind and keep an antena on the goby at all times when out of the burrow. They are from Alphidae family.
The goby is called a watchman goby. They are keeping an eye and warn the shrimp if any danger. There are multiple families of watchman gobies, my favourite ones are Amblyeleotris and Stonogobiops.
The shrimp will maintain the burrow. I have a suspicion that they're also cleaning the fish of any parasites, also taking care of the fishes' eggs until they hatch.
@@um02122 1 million from now:
Judge: Does the defendant plea guilty to charges of involuntary shrimpslaughter, negligence, life endangerment and conspiracy to commit murder?
Goby: No, sir, I don't. I warned Tony the gang's out there to get him!
Judge: But the tail warning, as shown by the bubble surveillance, was only struck two times by the defendant. The required amount is three.
Goby: That's clearly watershopped!
After 3 hours of deliberation: We, the jury, find the defendant guilty of all the charges.
Judge: I hereby sentence you Mr Gobynou to the maximum penalty allowed in the coral reef of Krabzonia, death by suffocation by expelling the defendant from the Oceania via balloon with enough water and oxygen to last him 5 minutes to the abyss above. May Neptune Forgive his soul and bring it back to the world underneath. Case dismissed!
@@belladonnahigh9206 thats a better story then anyone in hollywood can come up with
2:24 i actually have both of those in one of my aquariums. The tiger pistol shrimp is an EXCELLENT natural architect. They are smart enough to pick and choose rocks, shells, and rubble that would best suit particular spots in their burrow. He'll use rocks and small shells on the walls and flat clamshells on the ceiling. Its absolutely fascinating
Anyone who wears the skin of my friends are my friend, too.
friendliest thing ever
Midsommar energy
I want to know which person came up with the idea to glue the skin of a frog onto another frog so I can actively avoid coming into contact with them for as long as I live.
You know, if you happen to find out who, let me know too. I really don't need that macabre energy in my life either.
@@eanschaan9392 I really like how you called it macabre.
One of my favorites is the honey guide (bird) and human African hunters who get called and guided to where honey bees have their nests. The hunters use smoke to neutralize the bees And both share in the feast after they get the honey nest down.

It be interesting to preserve endangered species with consideration to their potential mutualist bonds.
Personally, If I get a reef aquarium,I would love a goby and shrimp pairing.

We as humans actually have done this as well. Our ancestors teamed up with wolves to hunt for food and for protection for each other to survive. Now we have different breeds of dogs around.
Badgers are gonna start domesticating coyotes 👀 then in a million years be the dominant species
now we kinda have dogs and cats as emotional support, some of us don't reaaally need them but some people who live alone actually do feel way better with a dog or cat. Since we are very social animals, it makes sense that having a buddy who is literally designed to be way more loyal and loving than most human friends is a good investment.
@Mohammed Ali the g I've read it's more likely that wolves started hanging around human camps for food and we began to help one another like the badger and coyote. We'd follow their hunts, the wolves ours, and over generations came to rely on each other more and more.
Cats are a case where we know for certain that they domesticated themselves--eating rodents that eat our grain and over time we began to tolerate each other until friendship formed.
@@watsonwrote that's unlikey as if that were true wolves would still exhibit that behavior in areas with modern nomadic people. However an ongoing study on Silver Foxes has shown that domesticated traits can be bred into new generations through selective breeding. Studies have also shown that Grey Wolf (ancestor to all dog breeds) pups grow up to be wild regardless of domestic rearing thus domestication can only be bred into canines.
@@cookeymonster83 The coevolution of wolves and humans is well established. Most scientists agree that it probably went down something like; Wolves hung around humans for scraps and the nicest wolves got more food , and over generations the nicest wolves started partnering up with humans to hunt and guard.
The fox domestication project just sped the process up because the *only* selection pressure was how nice the fox was, rather then just being one of the selection pressures. Basically early human/canine relationships where mutualistic, the wolves got food and the humans got camp defenders and alarms, and probably sleeping together to keep warm, then hunting partners, *then* they started with the selective breeding for tasks (in some places).
This is a perfect example about why I love this channel. Hank and all y'all are great.
“Well maintained Panic Room”
We all need one of those.

Imagine an alternate universe where humans never evolved and sea turtles were the dominant species. They created the internet, one of them started a youtube channel dedicated to answering science questions, and every day for several years, an anonymous sea turtle continuously left the comment "Why are there crabs on my butt?"
Was that...Carry-On Beetle?

Carrion
Nice joke. But these types of bettles eat rotten flesh
Another cool one is minnow nest association. A chub will pile stones to make a nest, other species of minnows will also lay eggs on it, and it helps improve the survival of all of them.

Wow this video is amazing! I was especially fascinated by the shrimp and fish that no longer always have to communicate consciously, evolution is amazing!
Nice episode, learned quite a bit, nice seeing the nicer side of nature
If only schools taught science like this when I went to school...! I honestly think students would have much higher grades, if it was taught like this!
Finding your channel recently, I can now learn new and interesting facts about the world; and be entertained at the same time from the excellent presentation of your chosen subject matter - this is absolutely brilliant! 😊💗🙏🏼
Education is not about being bombarded with facts, it's about seeing connections, understanding concepts and obtaining skills. All of that requires effort on your part and is not accomplished by passively watching a video. You feel good about yourself after watching educational videos, because you are not doing a test afterwards to show you how little you actually retained.
@@MrCmon113agee and disagree i agre with your point logically disagree with you emotionally
This is one of those topics where even when you think you've heard it all there are still more cool examples.

A few days ago I actually made a fictional relationship between T.rex and Spinosaurus: the spino hides underwater while the T.rex chases prey towards the water, there's a lot more to it, but that's the short version
Anyway I just thought it was interesting that this video was posted so close to when I finished that thing about a mutualistic relationship I'll probably never post anywhere
Never thought about dino relationships.. frustrating that we will never know... :(
@@WillArtie I'm nearly certain that those sort of interactions did happen, but good luck finding fossil evidence to back it up. The T.rex, spinosaur thing could've never happened because they lived on different continents at different times. Carcharadontosaurus and Spinosaurus though...
@@melvinshine9841 Yeah, there's lore behind how there's a spino and rex in the same place, but I'm don't think I'll ever make any of it public, as it's mostly writing practice
imagine being that beetle that was removed from their best friend mouse, just to be paired w a stranger mouse that killed them instantly. how scary
#6 I've seen that and was horrified by it. Phoretic mites little arachnids which can move incredibly fast for such small (~2mm) critters. I thought they were attacking the carrion beetle and I tried to brush them off it. Then was too creeped out thinking the mites would get on me. They are really disturbing. Amber, eight legs, never still. I discovered a new fear.

I watched a video about these hippos that have a relationship with these fish, when the hippos are resting underwater, the fish feast on the hippo’s dead skin cells and even going as far as inside the hippos mouth to give them a full clean-out. Hippo gets a spa treatment and the fish get a meal. Sounds good 😊

Crabs and turtles was the best, nice video!
Fish cleaning stations, check it out, totally awesome to have sharks, barracuda & other predators waiting for their turn to be cleaned & don't attack each other. You said it's not like they have a fish cleaning station, how did you miss this? Sir David Attenborough covered it ages ago
The turtle crab pairing made me think about a video where people were helping a turtle they found in the middle of the ocean covered in barnacles. However, as well as the barnacles and other parasites, they also removed a crab that was on the turtle and I'm now realising that maybe they hurt the crab AND the turtle by doing so.
Wow! No sponsor at the end of the video?
