I am shocked how clearly and easily you are getting this information across. This feels more like an introduction to a series of university lectures than a youtube video!
clint is extremely informative
Yep, this is why we like Clint. He has a gift for being informative and entertaining in equal measure.
Yes, and you should check out his channel, Clint explains! Lol
Maybe because he is a professor
I regret not taking biology in ASU
wait, wait, wait...A GECKO'S EYELID IS FUSED SHUT OVER ITS EYE?! I always heard that they just didn't have any and that's why they were always licking them! They basically just have a clear helmet in front of their eyes that keeps the air and debris out? That's so stinkin rad!
Well, today I learned that geckos’ feet are magnetic at a subatomic level. I always assumed it was suction.
That's the frogs, innit?
@@cerberaodollamno?
There’s a legless gecko?! How did I not know this?!
I love geckos so much! Especially how most of them look eternally skeptical of their surroundings, like they're always a bit suspicious of what's going on. It's very funny
This was a great video. I love learning about reptiles. Measuring people “snout to vent” would be hilariously awkward. I laughed out loud when they were measuring you and my kids were looking at me like I was crazy. 🤣
These videos are becoming my favorite!!! I love learning about reptiles at a deeper, more scientific level. I love the eyelid geckos 🥰
Man i was trying to find a video to put on in the background while i was drawing, and by the end of this video i looked down and my paper was still blank lol. great video, i love these style of videos, theres so much to learn!
good luck drawing a gecko now😂😂
I am in exactly the same case lol, ended taking a break to watch
All three families of parrots and their genera would be a great video.
The part about the toe pads and how gecko’s “stick” to surfaces was my favorite part. That’s so interesting how they work!
Wow! I knew geckos were RAD, but not this much! I want to be a herpetologist when I grow up and you’ve been a HUGE inspiration! I love the vids!
same over here, Clint is awesome
@@CRISIS_Official Nice! I totally agree!
Petition to call the legless geckos "Snekos"?
Yes. Just yes.
Slay the spire fans be like
I just found this channel and it's amazing. Not only because I find these animals fascinating. But Clint just seems so excited, it delightfully weird, but in a way that's totally wholesome.
Extra points for causing my 5-year-old to ask me to pause the video so he could go grab some magnets, and giving me a chance to answer his questions about atoms.
i consider myself desert-dwelling and i have a leopard gecko, so eublepharidae would be my favorite! i love how bumpy their scales are and just how happily smug their faces look. the western banded gecko is my favorite wild gecko!
This just solidified my love for geckos. My daughter is crazy about skinks but I want a Gargoyle gecko so bad I can't stand it.
Geckos and phylogenetics are two of my favorite subjects. What a delightful video!
I live in central Israel, south of Jerusalem. One day when I was sweeping my floor, I found a teeny tiny baby gecko! It was nearly clear, with spots that looked like it was sprinkled with sand. It wasn't even a half an inch long. I have big house spiders, and I was afraid he'd get eaten, so I scooped him up and put him outside. So adorable!
With a few more measurements, we can describe Clint's holotype and confirm his species.
Homo sapiens Laidlawi
I've been working with reptiles and other animals for 10 years and videos like this remind me that I know nothing. That being said I love these videos, Keep them coming !
Man I love these phylogenics videos! They're probably my favourite videos you make (other than, of course your usual series!)
Definitely eager to see the next one haha
I just want to say I love your overall energy. You're always so happy and excited to share all this fun animal knowledge with us. It makes me happy 😊
I love these phylogeny videos! So neat to learn about how our favorite critters are related to each other.
Hands down one of the absolute best videos on the channel
Okay this is an older video and I'm not even all the way through it yet but I'm SO EXCITED you just gave a probable explanation for one of my crestie's behaviors!!! The cone cell thing in the eyes may be why my crested gecko loves to watch UA-cam but almost exclusively cartoons, and loves the Christmas tree and other colorful lights- she may like bright vivid colors because she can see them really well! THAT IS SO NEAT.
I've said it on each of these videos so far, and I'll say it again (for algorithm purposes), these videos have quickly become my favorite videos on the channel. I love everything else as well, but these are the most fun. I know it is a much larger undertaking due to the many snake families, but I would love to see snakes broken down in this format.
the phylogeny videos are my favourite ones you do honestly
My eyes were glued to the screen. Geckos are so stinkin' rad and you are so good at teaching about them! I love all geckos but I'm a little biased toward diplodactylidae because I have a crested gecko who I absolutely adore and cherish :)
JUST finished editing a chapter in my book and was looking for a cozy video to unplug to. PERFECT timing with the upload! :D
Loving the phylogeny videos, Clint!
Measuring people snout to vent will never stop being funny
Systematics videos are great ! Please keep them coming !
I'll be looking forward to snake and chameleons families.
I have always been fascinated with nature in general and have watched nature shows my entire life. I'm that person that almost always has a oh did you know.... When different animals are brought up, but I learn something (usually many things) from each of your video's. I love the fact that you really break everything down so anyone no matter thier age can enjoy and learn. I mean you are a professor so that's a good skill, but you do it with such passion I can't help but get excited as well. Thank you for making these videos and somehow making it sure fascinating if you are an animal nerd or even just casually interested. My kids love your videos too and how can I say no when they have fun and learn. Thank you for your content
Your phylogenic videos are the best.
This was the most I ever learned about Geckos! This is the kind of video I like to see! My thanks to you and your production crew!
These are your best videos yet! I think tons of people have the same craving I do for academic level understandings of the earth's biodiversity presented in a way that's fun. I love these so much. Do snakes next please please please!
this is one of those series im probably gonna watch every video of at least once a year.
I absolutely love these taxonomy videos of yours. There's just soooooooo much to learn here and it's easy to take in.
You definitely should do cephalopods next! Give some more love to the invertebrates!
Very awesome video Clint! Love geckos and it's always interesting learning more about them. Currently I'm carrying for a pair of leopard geckos, a pair of Australian leaftail geckos, a pair of pictus geckos, a rough Knobtail Gecko, a leachianus gecko and a frog Eyed Gecko. Love lizards from all over the world
Lots of families represented there!
As a science teacher myself, I love learning from these videos!
Thanks Clint (and team) 🙂👍
My life is forever changed, for today I learned of the legless geckos. Geckos are by far my favorite lizards and I learned so much from this video, especially useful now that I’ve grown very interested in phylogenies. Thank you for the great work you do, Clint and crew, please keep’em coming ❤️
I have been looking for a scientific gecko loaded video like this all over UA-cam. Well excruciated Clint team. What a treasure!
I think you meant executed.
I hope it wasn't excruciating!
This was actually so helpful lol. There's a guy in my lab who's working with gecko systematics. I've never really understood too much of what he's talking about, but I've also been too lazy to look up the phylogeny lol
I edited the comment and lost the heart lol. I wrote it while half asleep, and it was not legible lmao
I absolutely love the dedication Clint has to researching more well known and obscure gecko species. amazing video man. you should do a top 10 geckos list covering some species as well
I love Geckos! I have since I was young, and have kept a few. Cave geckos and NC species are on my short list, but wonderful video! Thanks Clint. So fun and informative.
Snakes should be the next one on this phylogenetic series.
And I would also like to suggest that you should make a video about tips for people who want to take a zoology and/or herpetology course in college. Like discuss what should we be prepared and other stuff about it
I love these type of videos, this one especially bc i have a gecko of my own
It's so cool how geckos eat their shed like I've seen my own gecko (a leopard gecko) be super pale and then over night become so vibrant in colour
This is really helpful as I'm currently studying reptile zoology
I think geckos are amazing and this video was fantastic
Great video. Why are the Eublepharidae geckos the only ones with eyelids? Because of this i once thought that were the first family of geckos to split from the others, because all of the other families dont have them. Did the Eublepharidids evolve from geckos with no eyelids? Or did the all the other familes lost their eyelids more the one time in the past? And the toe pads have the same problem
given that they tend to be arid species i wonder if it's to keep sand from damaging their eyes, since a fused eyelid could get scratched and impair their vision
@@micah1848 African fat tail geckos are eublepharidae and are not a arid species and have eyelids
@@FBIandre123possibly vestigial
My first and only experience with Gekkos was in Hawaii. They are all over your walls at night "singing". They are GREAT bug catchers so everyone just leaves the be. They are soooo adorable! I wanted to catch one to take home but my cousin stopped me by telling me if I did that not only would it die but that it would have a broken 💔heart because they'd miss their family members. That was all she had to say. I just had to share that with you..Ok.. back to your show!
Thank you so much for making this video. Very interesting!
I loved this video!! I loved the little physics lesson, and just the overall structure as following the tree. As well as just it being informative in general, instead of just pet-focussed. Thanks!
I love science so much! Thank you Clint!!
You wouldn't expect such a large animal to stick to a smooth surface like glass. That's the coolest thing about geckos.
I truly honestly believe the evolutionary relationships of varanids needs to be covered. Everyone seems to believe they're all much closer related to eachother than they really are and many would be surprised to discover how diverse their lineage really is.
3:08 Clint, no! You drew your atom with 3 electrons in the innermost 1-shell, rather than 2 in the 1-shell (the maximum it can take) and 5 in the 2-shell (which is where the fun stuff happens). And as soon as an atom is charged, it's an ion, not an atom. It's totally ruined ;)
Van der Waals forces are weird as heck. The thing I find weirdest is that on the atomic level they're super-weak (compared to fixed molecular dipoles) but at the macroscopic level they're unbelievably strong. When I worked in a semiconductor cleanroom lab and was lifting off metal foils by dissolving the resin underneath them, if the solvent evaporated and the foil fell back onto a dry surface, it was never coming off with anything other than strong acid. Fun stuff!
The leachie looks so bad when you’ve just looked at a day gecko. xD
These videos are great. It’s nice being able to get all of this information in one place.
Thanks a lot, Dear Clint for this wonderful video !
I love this series. A video on vertebraete eye morphology would also be a dream since you mentioned it. The different ways eyes have evolve to deal with changing light is fascinating. My favorite is the plecostomus teardrop in their pupil. And maybe a couple on invertebrates, cephalopods deserve their own video
Clint keep at it. You, and the support team behind you, are rockstars. there's professional studios and education companies who can't get it as right as you guys do. You're enriching the world around you, and while my daughter is only 6 months old i hope your videos are still around in a few years so that she can benefit from them too. You guys kick ass, thanks for keeping at it.
Watched a vid this morning that made me feel depressed. Came here to cleanse my soul and learn about geks. Win win!
Clint have so much charisma that he could be a cult leader if he wanted to.
Nice to have options 😉
Absolutely love the videos!! The reason i am now a reptile owner is due to your videos and reviews on the reptiles 😁😁
Amazing! Super informative and clear. I wish I had this video before my herpetology final haha
This video is simply amazing, thank you so much!
I didn't expect to learn this much in this video, awesome job Clint. I would love to hear more about the geckos from New Zealand in the future!
I actually would love videos like this but for other reptiles like snakes. Agamids?
I love being introduced to sicence in this exact way.
When it's initially easy to understand then it's also easier to dig deeper later on.
Thank you for your work and effort put into your videos 😃
I'm glad that you guys have fun 😂
I just got some horrible news this morning and your uplifting and positive attitude is really helping me cope. Thank you, Clint!
I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm glad we can help brighten things a bit :)
Absolutely fantastic video I appreciate you and your crew very much! thanks for always keeping me learning.
I Iove when you break down different animals families. Please do more of these!!
I love eyelid geckos. Sure, they don't have the super stinkin' rad toe pads seen in many other geckos, but they're in my opinion possibly the cutest animals on the planet.
Love these videos!!! I hope to see you cover isopods like this :D
Wonderful video...I liked all of them. Would you do skinks? They are by far my favorite lizard species.
The Gecko is a perfect teaching model for biology, physics, and chemistry.
Side note: my brain went on an adventure, I thought to myself ok: there are Lizard-like geckos (of course most are like lizards, this was just to establish a baseline), there are Snake-like geckos (no legs you're like snake), Are there any Turtle-like geckos? (did not find any, yet), Are there any bird-like geckos? (YES, well no but gliding is sort of flying, Ptychozoon kuhli from Family: Gekkonidae)
Great leaping mind Batman!
.
Glad I got in so early! Thanks for giving me such an interest in reptiles and amphibians!
This year, I'm working towards pet Dart Frogs. I hope to eventually have Emerald Tree Skinks, not really anyone breeding them in Canada yet.
OMG!! I’m getting the same species next year! This year I’m getting a cherry headed tortoise and will name it Clifford.
@@The-Critter-Box One of the biggest barrier for me is the lack of breeding in Canada
Clint, this video was SPECTACULAR. :) Thank you so much for making it, I had so much fun watching it and learned a lot of useful info.
Thanks for liking my comment! I’m currently going to East Tennessee State for biology, with a focus in mammalogy and herpetology and a minor in environment studies. :) Your videos are so fascinating and really push me to expand my knowledge of the natural world! I would love to see more videos about how to travel for biology work, I hope to someday study geckos in tropical habitats!
Charlie
Love this video. I’d love to learn more about the more rare species of geckos you mentioned
geckos are so cool, very hyped to see more phylogenetics on this channel 👍👍👍
I loved this video! Maybe a interesting topic for a similar video could be the skink family?
Hi Clint!
I love geckos and own a few species. But your video taught me so much more about them. Could you make a video about diplodactylidae teaching more of these cool and very different species? 🦎🥰
Love your chanel! ❤️
Greetings from Germany! 🇩🇪
Never knew I was in a house divided- half of my geckos are diplodactylidae and half are gekkonidae… maybe I won’t tell them
So beautifully informative!! I love this.
Please keep the phylogenics vids coming, this stuff is fascinating!
12:50 I think that the only time i looked at an animal and thought "hot damn that looks like a pokémon" was with knob tailed geckos. They look like the pre evolution of a fire type starter from an australian based region.
Another amazing video!!! Skinks? Tegus? Rattle snakes?
LMAOOO seeing them measure clint snout to vent XD that was the most awkward moment but the funniest as well
So much to learn. Thank you for all the research.
Awesome video! Thank you so much. I love geckos! I also love skinks. Any chance you could do a similar video about them?
My current collection = 3 leopard geckos, a pink tongue skink, a Russian tortoise and a Hermann’s tortoise.
Possible future additions: emerald tree skink, Schneider’s skink, day gecko but not sure which one, knob tail gecko.
A lot have already been saying it, but these videos are great. On par with or better than the pet series for me.
How about a ranking video or a phylogeny video about carnivorous plants or vampire crabs/crustaceans (I know that carnivory has evolved independently several times across several orders and families)?
Ohh I love these type of videos even more than "Is [Species] the best pet [category]". Also laughing wayy too much at human snout-to-vent lenght (78cm in my case btw - this should really be a thing cuz funny)
I really enjoy these types of videos
Man I love that clip of the tokay gecko at the beginning. Tokays are such cool animals! They’re my dream reptile.
Was watching this with my Tokay gecko and he just looked at me funny when the tokay call started playing lol!
I agree with you on the family choice, especially the New Caledonian geckos.
