You should have a section in to zoo dedicated to the invasive species and teach why they are a problem.
Every species in the zoo could be an invasive species somewhere.

@@PinaaaColaaa It's sad so many invasive species have populated Florida.
Yeah, Florida is basically a massive staging point for invasives, the conditions are just perfect for pretty anything that gets accidentally dragged in there from the tropics. Reptiles are bad but it's even worse with arthropods.
and most of them are from the exotic plant trade,wood imports and stow aways on transports but the media craps on pet owners most of the time
I heard a small herd of hippos have found there way into the wanted list of florida
My grandparents - let's release our finches into the wild
Me - d o n t, y o u a r e t h e i s s u e
If your grandma ever wants to release a finch tell her I had a co-worker who came in crying because she let her cat out on her balcony and when she let it back in it came in with the fresh killed body of a little blue parakeet. Never seen it, obviously a pet breed of bird. Apparently landed on the balcony after the cat was out lacking instinct and not knowing many cat would see it as a nom nom.
My mom tried to do that when we lived back in NY but she did it right next to my red tailed hawk. Bird made it a whole 5 feet before my hawk jumpped up n caught it mid flight n ate it in front of her lol I just laughed like crazy. Told her u NEVER release animals into the wild. She just hit me wit the broom lol were puerto rican so the broom attack is normal lol
I love how Emily completely forgets about an entire animal in her hand.
yea lol just like losing the tv remote but its in your hand the whole time
i live in florida and my brother lost his cat. i heard rustling in the woods so we went with a whole can of cat food and multiple flashlights. it was something big cause it broke a whole branch.
a neighbor called saying they had our cat. i’m pretty sure we messed with an alligator that night
The thought of you making kissing noises and pspspspsp at an 8 foot alligator and it responding is just so funny to me idk why
As a European I can't imagine seeing a wild alligator. Like I know they are wild animals but I only ever saw them in the zoo. Living next to them must be terrifying, but you're probably used to it but it still baffles me.
It feels unreal.
Edit: Grammar
"Two invasives in one shot" three if you count Emily as a non Florida native...
Emily playing shadow puppets with the anole is killing me.
Oh fun, hurricane andrew also introduced another invasive... the lionfish.
I heard that Roomba is creating subaquatic vacuum especially to capture lionfish
I'm glad that when you spoke about the burmese pythons, you explained that the introduction that caused the breeding population was a mass escape caused by a hurricane, and didn't perpetuate the myth that it was caused by individual owner releases.
I was fully braced and ready for Emily to explain they needed to cull the invasive lizard they got, and if anyone in the world could do it humanely, it would be her and Ed. I was delighted when she said they were going to make him into someone's pet instead. Steve Irwin would be so proud of these two!
I was really anxious too, but I was so happy to see them keep him and give him a home.
Which lizard? Most invasive species you have to make sure are legal to keep as pets.

Oh those guys are all over south Florida. They are very mean and VERY crafty. I have one that I accidentally tamed, so hes kind of a pet? I dropped bits of chicken off my balcony to feed him on my porch and now hes here every day. His name is Gordito because hes gotten pretty chunky since I met him 😅
"I have no arms and legs but I can still climb better than you." - cornsnake in tree
My first snake was a Burmese python whom I inherited from a friend. Her name was Monster (a nod to her eventual size and to how most people react to snakes) and she was the sweetest snake I've ever met! So docile I could take her out in public and she'd basically be my bracelet or necklace. She had this pose she liked where she would wrap her tail around her own neck and hand head downward making her look like an animate necktie. I don't have her anymore, and I still miss her.
Emily: Apparently in Florida, in the winter, you can only find one iguana if you're lucky.
Haron: Found one! *nom*
My dad always tells me this story about a guy he knew. Apparently one day after we had this guy came across a bunch of dead iguanas so he does what any sensible Florida Man would do, and he piles the dead iguanas in this back seat so he can go home and make some iguana stew. Although in the warmth of his car all the iguanas start coming back to life, and the guy ended up running his car off the road.
@@sixoffcenter80 that's funny, disgusting, and horrifying all at the same time!? I hope the guy was o.k. but since it's a second hand story I would assume so?
@@DJDroz-tz4qc I've heard similar stories a few times - when it gets too cold, the iguanas brumate and fall out of trees. They appear frozen and dead... Until you warm them up.

Me the whole time during the video: Looking at emily's majestic hair color that looks like cheyanne's feathers
@Rex And Friends He dyed his whole head like Emily's streak. You can see it in the newest fan mail vid :)
what this video taught me is that green anoles get bodied by everything
They're actually quite prolific in other southern states like georgia, alabama, and the Carolinas. It's just unfortunate so many invasive critters introduced to florida eat smaller reptiles. I've maybe seen three in my whole time of living florida. They're really an absolutely stunning anole, just unfortunately becoming scarcer and scarcer in Florida.
They're actually going through a period of forced advanced evolution- their natural habitat is hunting bugs at the bottom of trees, but they're quickly evolving larger ridged toe pads in order to climb higher and higher into trees to avoid newly introduced predators! It's really pretty cool, just a bit sad that they have to learn to adapt so fast.
I love how Emily said she didn't want to take the corn snake out of the tree like she could reach him!😂

the squirrels in my parents yard purposefully throw pine cones at you just like those birds. animals have a weird sense of humor
The squirrels in mine throw acorns at people. You don't even have to piss then off, they'll just start chucking acorns.
The last place I lived had a resident squirrel who threw pinecones only at my one neighbor. It left the rest of us alone, it was only ever just him and he never did anything to the squirrel so we thought it was funny.
When I arrived in Florida three decades ago, the green anoles were EVERYWHERE. As a northern city boy, I was amazed by it. Sadly, they're mostly gone now thanks to the much more aggressive (and invasive) brown anoles. The remaining green anoles have since moved up into the trees, and the brown anoles are found on the ground, in shrubs, etc. I miss those little green guys, it's been a couple of years since I've even seen one
I saw one over the weekend sitting in my little cypress tree :) Obviously nowhere near as common as the invasive ones, sadly, but at least they still exist.
@@GilraenTook it's been a couple of years since I last saw one. I look for them all the time, but no luck
This is literally the most chaotic snake discovery video and I’m here for it
I absolutely love the curly tail quietly sitting in Emily's hand like "Yes, all is correct, I'm an arsehole"
the lizard was like "why is this giant animal holding me and speaking to a light"😂😂
Emily: They will eat ANYTHING that they can catch
Curly Talied Lizard: I hope you aren’t the same way. I don’t want to be eaten
I love how Emily is so strong she gets bitten by so many thing and doesn’t take anything from it, it’s funny how Emily is always the one catching the animals and Ed just gets scared. Lol, they put in so much effort into their videos and always takes care of their animals and us 💗💋
“There’s 8 verses I came up with!” Lol she sounds like a great road trip buddy.

Lesson of the story almost everything in Florida eats Green Anoles
I’d say the brown anoles / Bahamian anoles outnumber green anoles 20:1 in Florida. Very sad reality.
They’re everywhere dude. I’d walk into my bare driveway some days and see 30 of those suckers just sprint for the hills.
I hardly ever comment on videos but I needed to say that I just admire Emily so much for being so knowledgeable about the reptiles that she cares for and just the production value of all the videos are so amazing to watch and it’s so nice to see someone so passionate about something.
The fact that you guys take care to know so much about your wildlife out there is super important and impressive.
First time finding them and keep watching because they are so informative it's fascinating. Like Steve. Irwin and Forest Galante!
It’s Emily wanting to beat up the bird over that green iguana for me 😂😂
I love how pure these videos are. Just a normal couple filming something that makes them very happy and sharing it with the world. You guys are awesome 🤩
Omg... Being able to go somewhere where parrots are just flying around like their pidgeons, is a dream of mine.
Just seeing a bunch of parrots in the wild. Sigh! Dreams!
You should go to Australia. They have so many parrots and other stunning birds.
It's truly a BEAUTIFUL sight to behold. There was a flock that flew overhead in my neighborhood everyday when I lived in ft. Meyers!
I like anoles because they are super mad when they get caught but won’t get off your hand when you try to release them :/
Its like my baby beardie, i put my hand in the enclosure to pick him up and he makes a huge fuss and runs around tryna climb the walls, then i put him back in the enclosure but he wont let go of my finger!

They don't let me get them out of they cage, but then they refuse to go back in
The poor green anoles EVERYTHING WANTS TO EAT THEM!
I've got one that hangs out under a board next to my window and every day I hope nothing has eaten him
I used to visit Florida a lot and I hardly ever see green anoles anymore 😔
@@paulaelisamenacho4882 I know I love them :(
My neighborhood actually has green anoles, brown anoles, and curly-tailed lizards, and the brown anoles have been doing the best by far, so I'm not 100% sure how accurate the thing she said in the video is, but it could just be because curly-tailed lizards are a relatively recent introduction up here in the center of the state
Crane eating an anole
Usually its a french fry or cig so AYY good job crane :>
Emily: **scientific speech about lizards**
Lizard: *:0*
You should take a trip to the Florida keys, there’s literally rows upon rows of green iguanas sun bathing and there’s other invasive species too
As someone not from Florida, going down there and seeing wild iguanas and parrots is amazing to me. We don't have anything cool up here along the east coast.
@@blobbertmcblob4888 when I went to Disney world I was pretty amazed by all of the lizards
They're also very common in the Caribbean. I did a horsback riding excursion there once and the stable where the excursion took off from was crawling with iguanas, some really good sized ones too.
Emily: gets bit by a dinosaur
Emily: I'm fine!
Squamates are nothing compared to dinosaur bites, even tiny little birds can be pretty painful if they want to hurt you.
I really wonder what dinosaurs will look like if they were actually more related to lizerds rather then birds I don't hate feathered dinosaurs but I wonder
*LOVED THE VID GUYS!* you almost found them all, there are a few lizards n chameleons left but you did incredibly well! haha
@@actuallydeer and speared a python and iguana to death. And stuck an iguana under boiling water .
glad you're watching Snake discovery, maybe now youll learn how to take care of animals
There was also a blue crown conure up there! Beautiful birds, it's sad that they're invasive.
As a Floridian I would LOVE a part 2. And yep, in certain areas outside of restaurants those curly tails will hang around in groups where people eat outside, just waiting for something they like! I hope you come across a chameleon, they are amazing creatures!
Oh snap, I'm also a floridian! From the SWFL area, I've seen the curly tails near Naples and Bonita a lot.
I know they're invasive and all, but living on the east coast where we don't really have reptiles and birds (we got rat snakes and 5-lined skinks, that's all I know of and no super cool birds since the carolina parakeets went extinct hundreds of years ago lol) I love going down to florida and seeing all the reptiles and parrots, invasive or not. Florida is North Americas rainforest. The invasive species are there to stay, I'm afraid.
@@blobbertmcblob4888 Where on the east coast? I regularly see green anoles, tree frogs, house geckos, skinks, etc just around where I live or work in the Carolinas, as well as the occasional rat snake or copperhead (and once one that might have been an indigo!) while out herping.
Oooh, and up on Long Island, NY there are tons and tons of garter snakes to find.
My daughter watches all the time. We moved to Naples in March of last year. So she was super excited to see that they were so close!
Those would be cute. Here in California we've got some type of lizard that's green.... I've found two in my bathroom once. When I was younger, I tried feeding lizards meat, but they never took it.
moral of the story: everything in florida thrives
@@edman79 I disagree, even the absolute craziest people survive in Florida
Nice video! I find it really interesting how there are many species that I often see and are native to where I live (mid-wetsern Brazil, where the biome is cerrado, a kind of savanna).
Some examples are BCCs, green iguanas, macaws and white eyed conures.
It's quite common to see blue and gold macaws (even in the city) and boas near bodies of water around here.
Pretty much any tropical/savanna species thrives in Florida based on what I can see
I remember I always had a frog come onto our porch to eat bugs. A few days later I saw our chickens running with a big frog then I never saw jimmy the frog again. :<
Also. I have another story. There is one season at our first rental and we had these trees with small red berries birds would swarm in fall I think I can’t remember but, there was one time we somehow had fishing line in a tree once, my mom was mowing the lawn and I tried telling her but she didn’t hear me, I told her after that there was a bird flapping it’s wings rapidly, we realized it was stuck in fishing line and had to call animal patrol, the bird was okay, thankfully. The bird flew away fine, :D
I have so much respect for Emily for not even swearing when she got bitten... if I was bitten, that audio footage would not be usable
If it's a cat bite, I'm used to it. If it's all the way through my epidermis/dermis then my brain just goes "RIP IT OOOOOOFFF" while I go and bit my lip in pain.
shout out to that curly tailed lizard that was so chill with emily holding it that she forget she even had it in her hand
I love how Emily is so fearless to catch animals lol
Just imagine being a person driving by, and then seeing how Emily is posing next to dead animal
I fully understand that one less Burmese Python in Florida is good for every other native species, but gosh it does hurt my heart to see such a gorgeous snake lifeless like that. I could feel Emily's struggle with it too, and I was right there with her
such a sad sight, I'm a huge softie for pythons and although they are bad for the environment, any loss of life is sad
As an owner of pythons(ball,not Burmese ) I struggled too…poor snake,at least it wasn’t laying there hurt and suffering 🥺
I mean it sucks but they reproduce extremely fast and are threatening alligators and cougars by eating their food sources.
Emily is the type of person that you are instantly friends with as soon as you meet her
One of the weird species that you can find in France is Kangoroos in a region in France they escaped from the zoo because of a storm and now they live year round in a small region (not in all the territory)
Hello, person from California here! I happen to see the cherry headed conure frequently in my area, and I had no idea they're a non-native species in Florida as well! Love your videos and I look forward to your next one!
Emily and Edd getting distracted for 26 minutes straight and I love to watch that. It's always nice to listen to such passionate people that are just nerding over everything they see XD
Especially when they're doing something interesting, like herping. But seriously, even if they found nothing, I would be interested. Emily's a fact spewing machine.
The anole looks absolutely baffled at how they could have gotten into this situation 😂

It makes me very sad that people release their pets. I remember trying to talk someone out of releasing their pet rabbit because they thought keeping it in captivity was cruel.
Did you point out to them that captive bred animals often don't have the skills to survive?
Also that wild rabbits don't live near as long as ones in captivity due to being food for pretty much everything
😅 releasing captivity pets/animals in the wild is cruel. Did they ever release their pet?
@@SpeedDemonStar they didn't care. They saw it as cruel to keep a rabbit in captivity and thought it would be happier and more natural outside...despite the fact it probably got eaten by an owl or coyote.
You guys have so much enthusiasm for animals. It’s contagious. Keep doing what your doing. God bless!

‘Then we tried to catch it anyway’
See ant this is why Ed and Emily are my favorite people hahah
You do not need to have a hunting license or any kind to be allowed to “help” with the invasive species problem, which it is legal to do with the invasives.
However, it is still illegal to keep an invasive species as a pet, because there is a chance that you will not be able to take care of them. Since it has been your pet and you have grown to love them, then you most likely will chose the option to release them, causing them to breed and repopulate.
I think they were allowed to do it because they are relocating it out of the state to a new state where it can't survive in the wild (those Minnesota winters be too harsh for tropical cold blooded lizards)

"If you do a grabby, I do a snappy!" - Cuban knight anole
you mentionned how you were gonna keep or rehome the knight anole, but what about the curly tail and brown anole? I assume same thing but since you didnt mention it, I wanted to ask
She stated the brown anoles are part of the ecosystem now, so there is no point removing it. Knight anoles arent super well established, so removing individuals can slow down the population growth. Not sure about the curly tail though
I'm curious about this too actually. I would actually love a whole video on protocol herpers follow when dealing with invasive species in a bit of detail.
