The Collotheca Doesn’t Mind Eating Its Own Babies

- Imagine that this is the beginning of the last thing you’ll ever see, an empty landscape with thin lines scratched across it. But those lines suddenly sharpen and gather into a dense mass that spreads from the crown that sits atop a giant, studded with greens and yellows. A giant that is in search of one thing: food.

I mean who hasn't eaten their own babies in a moment of weakness?
💀💀💀
Yes officer this man right here
I ate fetus soup
Kronos moment
I mean, it's called getting by... isn't it??
Received your microscope for my birthday on the 14th of January. I am....WAY more impressed than I thought I was going to be, and I thought I'd be super impressed by the tiny world before! You're right, the youtube footage can't begin to show how AMAZING the 3D effect of actually looking through your own microscope is. I've already collected multiple samples, and goodness I've seen so many moving critters! It's almost impossible to tear myself away, if I'm honest. It really is like peering into some mythical dimension of gemstones and wonder. I'm actually about to move from California to England, where I'll be living aboard a narrowboat and cruising the canals-- this gives me a fantastic opportunity to sample all along the routes. I'm buying myself a journal so I can note down locations and conditions and I'm going to catalogue as much of what I find as possible. Hopefully I'll be able to share my journey into the microcosmos too. Thank you for inspiring me to find such a wonderful hobby, and a new purpose in life.
We tend to get a 2D view of this world! I can't wait for the day that the technology exists for us to view them in a 3d space!
3D microsoposcy...
I'm waiting for the day a 3d star map can be displayed.
It /should/ be possible to gather the required information by just sweeping the focus, but you'd need someone who can handle the truly horrific mathematics to turn that into a voxel image. You're looking at the most hellish of deconvolutions.
@@ShadowWizard123 I'm pretty sure those exist already!
I recently discovered this channel and find it super fascinating, can't wait to see more content.
Adhd gaming
"But we're getting away from our original topic."
Good, that makes it more fun to learn. Sometimes things become more interesting when you learn more unrelated stuff about them.
Exactly 💯
Great intro! Excellent episode, well as usual. If I had to introduce someone to this channel, this might be the one. I'm so happy these organisms are in fact, microscopic.
Good choice actually, this ep is a good one for someone to start the journey to this channel, the beginning of it is soo driving
The microorganism that took "A Modest Proposal" literally.
I was literally about to watch this channel by coincidence and then they uploaded that moment - wild
Bizarre certainly it is,beautiful when understand more than only the surface ,but it is a fascinating sphere where I believe we only grounded with our small knowledge!
Thank you again for this upload !
Why is watching such violence so soothing and peaceful at this level?
I believe it’s because about the micro world ,which doesn’t affect at any level,it only makes us aware about this …
Unique,cruel,full of interaction and very difficult to interpret even for those who study for more than a century this branch of science …
We like violence, we need it to make our boring lives easier to put on.
Collotheca responsible adult in the room: I'm thinking of eating in tonight.
Collotheca family members: oh, er, um, youth club/visiting local unicellular pals/not hungry, off to gym🤭😱
This stuff is so chill before bed 🤝
YESS ANOTHER VIDEO BEFORE BED!!!
I've watched so many journey to the microcosmos videos that Hank is now the voice in my head whenever I read through lessons in my bio class
That's one funky looking bean.
A baby-eating-bean.
Having been introduced to microscopy while I was still in elementary school, (a Jason/Empire as I recall), I must say it was a _wonderful_ surprise to hit this channel by chance. As many microscope films as I've seen, I _still_ didn't know there was a microscopy version of Stanley Kubrick out there. The magic is in the details!!!
My grandma always used to say i was so cute she could "just eat me up". Now starting to think she was serious lol
My uncle used to say the same thing & I'm a girl
Gotta say I'm increasingly glad not to be a unicellular critter of any sort, haha
2:06 In the lower right corner, the end of the strand of green algae looks like its hat came off.
Imagine this captured on IMAX 70mm film
I gotta admit... I've thought about it myself a few times.
It's hard for me to think of life as being just a very complex variation of wind blowing through tree leaves, but then I hear the reliable anthropomorphic descriptions.
I cannot believe these beings are not sentient.
That's one beautiful but scary little world!
"Honey, wheres the baby?"...
* *burp* *
Babies ARE a great source of protein
Spring Semester starts tomorrow for me, thanks for the entertainment today.
Microbes smart ok? Microbes know it's smarter to eat the baby than try to steal the baby's candy.
There are other animals who eat their own and it is a surprising method of species survival.
Then there are animals who will keep their clutch of eggs only a certain number, and to add one in only causes the mother to kick one out to return to the right number.
There might be an optimum number of offspring so that nutrients can rightly be given to all. Too few, and the species might die out. Too many, and the species might overpopulate and starve.
Given the opportunity where resources aren't limited and control of the family lies with the childbearing person, a human person would choose to have 2 or 3 children. In the 1970's, I believe I remember the average to be 2.38 children per family. (the .38 child only appeared in a fiction book, _The Phantom Tollbooth)_
Good video to watch while eating dinner.
"Gelatinous Safety Vest" would be a great name for a psychedelic rock band.
"Perhaps it was a mistake".. Oups!
Always very fascinating content💚🦠🔬
Rotifers are wheelie cool!
A minute early?
_A minute!????_
Would the Collotheca be visible to the naked eye or a regular magnification glass?
God, I hope not.
From the scale refs in video, adult collotheca can be about 50 um (micrometers) across - roughly the same as a human hair. Their bodies also appear ~2-3x as long as they are wide.
With enough contrast, it may well be possible to see something that size with the naked eye, though it'd probably be impossible to tell what you were looking at.
How deep is the space between the slide and the cover?
this was ASMR before ASMR was ASMR..
barnicles have alot in common with rotifers
That thing is HUGE lol
Awesome..
It looks to me that some of the potential prey stole the bait and got away.
She probably just had enough of her spawn’s whining.
More Deboki!
Quick question - after I download this video in the English setting, the file is saved with a spanish audio track instead.....does anyone have an idea how this happened? No other YT channels have had this problem for me.
Waw that's weird, hmmm have you tried to redownload it or download it from another account?
check the 'audio track' settings on the video and make sure you have the right one selected. most youtube channels do not have to worry about this because they do not provide audio in anything other than english.
Awesome channel
James's microscopes are so sharp it makes my university ones image look like a smudge puddle 🤦♂
lil theca
Compared to the fungi I examine - this thing is enormous!!
Collotheca. Human. Same difference.
I'd love to know more about the species of rotifers that are all female. Honestly, I'd just love more rotifers. Remember in a vid talking about growing a fondness for certain microbes? Yeah, rotifers for me.
3:15
So basically it’s Charybdis
These are so similar to sea life
Thank you😋 an oll for the beautiful sharings😋
Oll injoy beïng🖖🌈🍀🌳🌻🌳🍀
Rotifer, "Imma eat mah babies! Nom nom nom nom!"
WEF, "This seems sensible..."
Is it possible to do a time lapse of live plant cells moving within a plant? If so would you try it?
The cilia around the mouth are so long!
🙌🏽
Cool!
I love that the music in these videos reminds me of the music from Subnautica.
Can you show me what’s contained in a booger, or loogie?
Very crab of them
Mmm, tasty babies.
🌮
I dont want to watch this in spanish I need original audio, help?
Iä! Iä! Cthulhu fhtagn!
are you using the microcosmos microscope?
Whoa I did not think these little dudes could reproduce sexually - is the male rotifer classified by the y chromosome or by his role in reproduction?
edit: are those separable?
Hey I'm a physics major student but i really love your videos.
Can you mark organisms with red circle or like in this video you are tell it's eating it's babies so which one is exectly baby 🐣 i couldn't identify....
So can you mark organisms.... thank You
Tastes like chicken
Kinda sus 🤨
Pésima traducción
they are just woke and a bit ahead...
The default dub is Spanish?
I love your channel...but, the Spanish version sucks! The voice has no personality, and no pause... The English female voice is great! Keeps the charm, the tone. Believe me in Spanish sounds just cheap.
Pois é, a dublagem está horrível!!! MELHOREM!!!
Like the video, scripts just get cringier with every episode.
A cool video that didn't try to promote that evolution pseudoscience. Good one, JttM.
