If I was the leopard in the tree in that first incident, I would be so mad at the camera and lighting person. Like thanks for shining a spotlight on me, FOR THE REST OF THE SAVANNAH TO SEE WHERE I AM!!!
7:35 that is one of the coolest shots I've ever seen for demonstrating the effectiveness of that spotted camouflage. Amazing how the cheetah completely disappears when hitting the deck!
My dad works in oil field maintenance and construction. There are all kinds of venomous snakes, hornets, wasps, mountain lions, coyotes and even bears at some of his locations. None of those phase him even slightly. BUT, when you and ask him what he does fear, he will tell you hands down, “The Honey Badger. If I catch even a hint of one of those, I’m out.” He says that years ago, one charged at him for nearly half a mile. He made it to his work truck and no joke, that thing was trying to tear through the metal and fiberglass to get to him. They are not easily deterred and they are, in my father’s words “Downright evil, without a cause.”
Professional army of well armored and geared up men, working in team and having designated friendly and hostile targets just by fast analyzing pheromonic markers. They have some impressive hierarchy and tactics for each battle coordination, more brain than some of our generals 😂
@@alexsiniov Either that... or the Bees set themselves up as helpless Homeowners - in order to launch a covert “Sting Operation” - but underestimated the strength and numbers of the Home Invaders, who turned the tables on them by executing a series of devastating “Pincer Movements” that cut off their “Headquarters.” 😉
The first clip made me laugh. The leopard looked down at the other one like "Bro you are gonna make this personal, showing up to my house like this." Also let me correct the Smithsonian here, the honey badger has no weaknesses, it's just pure ruthless aggression 😅
Mongoose vs Snake my favorite. The squirreld backed down as the cobra hitman showed up to smooth things over. But at the end the snake scored. Not only the cameraman/woman deserves the credit for the shots but also the one who humorously wrote describing whole event.
Just imagine been spot by a leopard an then quickly rush unto a tree thinking " haha he'll never catch me here " then suddenly your making face to face contact with him 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's a well known fact that drop for drop the King Crobra's veom is weaker than a Black Mamba....and plenty of other snakes. Make it makes up for that in venom yield by not letting go of its prey a l lot of the the time. The king cobra is also immune to other snake venom and much stronger and aggressive than other snakes so it just bullies it until it's venom finally does take over and then the king cobra eats the other snake head first, and whole.
Jeez the mongoose is an absolute unit. They’re like the animal version of Deadpool - immune to harm, and they know it. So they dance around with their prey before ending the battle with one swift bite. Such a cool animal, well done evolution!

So unfair of the developers to make the venom meta useless by buffing the mongoose with an antidote. I'm surprised the community isn't outraged by this
Seeing those hornets fight each other in such a vicious attack is unbelievable, watching one hornet decapitate another as it’s head just rolled down the ground was something. Then they went in the hive (if that’s what they’re called) or nest and eating all the future queens a larvae was brutal! Just like watching that wart-biter eating the grasshopper alive and if you watch it purposely eats it’s rear end/abdomen first, because if you watch after it’s fight with the praying mantis and goes back to the grasshopper it had the choice to eat it’s head but goes back to the abdomen like it wants to torture by eating it alive
Mortal Kombat came to mind the very moment the grasshopper crawled away in an agonizing display with it's torso missing from the savage attack from the wart biter. And in the end the Wart Biter "Finished Him"! Lol.....Like that was pretty freakin savage all the way around and a brutal way for the grasshopper to die 😳
they can sense eachother pretty sure, they have their own form of recognizing. I assume its something like smell, but since theyre insects its probably more like vibrations?
Imagine the first person to find out leopards can climb
They didn't have time to imagine, they were dragged down instantly
All in the name of science
No way I’m out running that beast i better climb a tree
Imagine being a leopard hiding for your life in a tree and some humans come along and shine a spot light on you.
i learned from “Go Diego Go”😃🧍🏻♀️
Mongoose to squirrel: "you're not that guy pal"
Squirrel : "you?"
Mongoose: "absolutely"
I am afraid
hehe
1:43 the leopard’s face is too funny
Bro said “😳”
Watching bugs eat each other, especially alive, is the creepiest thing ever.😳
It's beautiful
@@barefootprofessor3455 In a sense, yes absolutely!😅
Our government has been doing that to us for years.
ikr.
world is a savage place. the worst of it is the ocean and the bug world.
It’s amazing how they get the footage of this. It must be difficult and patience is the key to get the best footage.
Its there job or course there gonna have cameras on them 24/7
It was hard, Because there was no way I was getting in the Middle of some of those Mean Animals.Thank you your Concern about me though!
These videos are staged. The animals are pets in controlled environment. They have names
The honey badger is no joke. Just like the wolverine. Amazing speed by the cheetah.
Big facts and that snake picked the wrong one to mess with
The mongoose was impressive, too!
Those Mongoose are badass...brave as they come and fast as lightning.
Respect 👍
The meerkats a mongoose as well
If I was the leopard in the tree in that first incident, I would be so mad at the camera and lighting person. Like thanks for shining a spotlight on me, FOR THE REST OF THE SAVANNAH TO SEE WHERE I AM!!!
its infrared light.
The scene was spliced to illustrate what goes on. The lions and cheetahs were not in the same place this time.
not cheetahs they were talking about leopards and lions
@@ghostofredemption6182 No it's not infrared it's definately a spotlight, you can see from the shadows cast by the leopard and the tree branches.
Bukusu songs
I always wonder how they get these shots. Like inside a killer bee nest
boroscope camera
@@ghostofredemption6182 what are those
@@moonftv small tube shaped cameras
Q man
..
They set up so-called "camera traps" and also some hidden cameras controlled by remotes. Some use superzoom lenses.
Honey Badger is the badassest one.
7:35 that is one of the coolest shots I've ever seen for demonstrating the effectiveness of that spotted camouflage. Amazing how the cheetah completely disappears when hitting the deck!
I cracked up when the last mongoose hit that blade of grass and jumped! 😂😂😂
I woulda jumped too!
That was a squirrel lol
It thought it was finished 😂
2:23 Jack be like : Can u plz turn the lights off? There are eight lions coming at me 😂😂😂
I need to get me one of them "Resident Cobra Hitman" 🤣
Bro, it's so mean can eat all of your livestock and eat your kids as a dessert, it's illegal in most countries to import a Mongoose
Why did they make a bug fight seem so intense?
You mean it wasn't?!?!
edits cuts and some tense drums seem to help.
@@ghostofredemption6182 the punches sfx were also funny lol
Mantis is a small monster. It's sharp blades can rip off a snakes second in just a flash of seconds. Their speed is beyond imagination.

Bugs are so twitchy. It’s crazy watching this on my 75 inch. 😂
Weird flex lol
@@zChunkzz-0 try it bro, it’s trippy
That flexibility from cheetahs, awesome!
I am confused cause i do not know whether i should cry because of the cruelty in the video or laugh at the hilarious comments on it

That stuff was awesome. I was actually rooting for some of the animals
Me too I was rootin fa da Honey Badger dat snake musta not had no poison
Cuz dat snake was tagging dat head boi!!
Can we just thank the bug who recorded the bug fights🙏🙏🙏😭😭
😭😭😭😭
😭😭😭😭

16:13
Hornet: Hey you dont mind if I bite your head off do ya?
Hornet:
I wish cheetahs rolled in a pack.
Would give em more of a fighting chance.
There’s a real video of 3-5 brother cheetahs and they destroy anything in their path
That camera man/woman deserves an award, amazing how it’s done
Now this is quality content
The short grass plains of the Serengeti at 6:46 are so beautiful!!!
Mongoose vs Snake my favorite. The squirreld backed down as the cobra hitman showed up to smooth things over. But at the end the snake scored. Not only the cameraman/woman deserves the credit for the shots but also the one who humorously wrote describing whole event.
Fally
amazing animal fights in the wild, the best👍👍👍
22:13 Moongose : 50,000 Snakes used to live here; now its a ghost town.
I imagined the leopard climbing down after hearing the lions is saying, "Oh sh*t, oh sh*t, oh sh*t"
Nat Geo WILD thank you for the great and engaging video content!
The asmr in these animal videos get me every time🤣
So it's not just humans that have a killer instinct after all! Wow! That cheetah went straight for the throat! Clever.
Finally
Steve got into smash bros
If only you did crash
Nightshot101 ya but Steve is still cool
Too bad they nerfed his meat 🍖.
I’m high as a kite watching animals eat each other
It's so interesting to watch. I can watch these kinds of videos for hours
These battles are absolutely wild-nature at its most raw and intense!
All those other animals watching the cheetah get the gazelles were thinking "thank God that isn't me🤣"
First time I've ever seen a snake win a fight against a snake eater.
It happens more often than people might think, but most nature programs seems to focus more on the mammals victory than the reptiles.
They didn't win any fight it's a draw
20:11 the sneeze did lighten the mood a bit, ngl
Hahaha Yea, dusty food
4:02 most realistic sound I've ever heard
And the winner is.....Ricky ticky Mongoose!!!

Thats crazy i never knew Mongooses had anti venom.
Me neither
Well, they don’t have anti venom, they are just immune to the venom
The sound effects during insect fight got me dying💀💀
Bruhhh the wasp lower half with the wings flew off without the head 😂😭😂
*The 1st person to learn leopards can climb must’ve had the saddest look dangling on that branch*
Mannn
It's incredible how much we can learn from observing wild animals in their natural habitats.
Just imagine been spot by a leopard an then quickly rush unto a tree thinking " haha he'll never catch me here " then suddenly your making face to face contact with him
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The edits on the mantis fight were hilarious
woww...great videos
Sting ray:👀
Hammer head: this is for Steve Irwin
How do they get cameras and the timing to film this stuff 🤔 Amazing!!!
No idea
preset motion sensor activated cameras and drones I assume
I'm pretty sure they camp for weeks waiting and hoping for action
Some of it is staged on purpose. Pretty sure that wart biter and Praying Mantis were thrown against each other
The music and sound effects are super cool.
Leopards are one of the perfect fighting animals. They can hunt on the ground and in trees
8:24 "I must be the hero" ahh look
Does anyone know who did the narration for 9:41 ?? (Hammerhead V StingRay)
COOL!! 😮

that was a cape cobra not a king.
I know they be making them bugs fight 🤣
The whole wart biter vs praying mantis bit looked like a stop motion
The hippo is laughing in the water 😂😂
Bug fights are like old jousts and wars. Leopard treetop fights are like kung fu movie battles
Jeez the mongoose is an absolute unit. They’re like the animal version of Deadpool - immune to harm, and they know it. So they dance around with their prey before ending the battle with one swift bite. Such a cool animal, well done evolution!

Creasing at this comment 🤣
right? as a former snake main i am very upset.
Honey Badgers are beatiful
Shining a light on his Hideout was pretty messed up
Ikr they’re always doing that
Cats can see in the dark.
infrared cameras
saying these things without knowledge is also messed up. They use infrared.
Did that narrator just say that a snake tried to "run"? 🤣😂
That hammerhead was just pushing the other sharks out of the way like Karen on Black Friday
The spiny anteater was pretty wild looking
This video was absolutely amazing. Loved every second of it.
How did the shark not get stung at all by the stingray?
I was wondering the same thing
that Cheetah has crazy speed hunting the springbok
Beautiful video
Those hornets vs.hornets are just like me and my siblings
We are sooo lucky bugs are small, they're so savage
Hippo VS Rhino who would win?
Rhino probably
I saw a video on TierZoo that said Rhinos have low intelligence, and that makes the hippos intimidation more scary to them.
Tru tho
Watching the bugs made me feel itchy 😖
Okay but how do they get the footage of the bug fight?
Am I missing something or did nothing happen in the Leopard v Leopard “fight?”
Dey was bouts ta
Lions interrupted

Badger is the most badass in animal kingdom,also he's immune to poison and has a thick neck defense
Stingray be doing the most with being stealth, but still, lol!!!
Tortoise vs. Giraffe. I can't wait.
Hippo 😁smile after entering into water
How do the hornets know who's who when 2 hives go against each other like that? I can see a lot of team kills happening
they can sense eachother pretty sure, they have their own form of recognizing. I assume its something like smell, but since theyre insects its probably more like vibrations?
Pheromones
@@thefisherking78 I figured as much, I just didnt know they were THAT complex
Some have on red bandanas and the others have on blue
@@GoatedCulturePodcast see, THIS makes sense
dang momma cheeta was haulin
The insect battles reminds me of monster bug wars
2:52 When has bug "armor" actually been effective against an attack? It's like worse than Minecraft leather armor at 25% durability.
9:15 I had no idea cheetahs behave like mountain lions: slapping the ground with their paws to intimidate the trespasser.
wow this i literally screamed out loud
Imagine being chased by a cheetah
