I'm SO confused on how they LEAVE IN parts where animals fall off tables and are LITERALLY dead. It's not like they forgot and let their mistakes slip, they literally aren't even trying to hide it, they do edit their videos.
Sad but true, as long as they think people won't notice. I worked at a kids location once and we had a couple events raising pupas to butterflies, and baby praying mantis. The company was getting publicity shots and one of our regulars age 3, was asked to hold her palm out flat to hold a baby praying mantis. The child promptly closed her hand and squashed it dead, I'm sure not out of any malice (she was a sweet little girl), I think she just didn't understand the instruction, maybe got confused or overwhelmed with us employees and the photographer. Yea the newspaper still published the picture of the girl with the dead mantis in her hand. What's the difference, right? *sigh*
"Guys it's sleeping lol let's let him sleep"
*stops recording
"Yup the 69° one this weekend"
@@maribeld84 There is no difference. I am extremely sensitive to seeing dead animals, including insects.
Like if they genuinely try to keep them alive but they fall off once, that’s fine. But… this. PLUS HAMSTERS ARE EXTRMELY DELICATE SOOOOO
@@soniathesmolfox5560 Kids aren't evil
UA-cam Kids has always been a cesspool of questionable content, but at this point I'm just disappointed about this.
I've been real sick and tired of people using fish as props and not treating them properly.
I've already seen fnf UA-cam kids content but I don't want to see UA-cam kids videos that advertises animal abuse.
Yeah, it's unfortunately true. I watch a fish youtuber named AVNJ and he recently reviewed sh'tty aquariums, it's honenstly so sad seeing people treat aquatic creatures like some kind of decorations or props
As a kid I always wanted to have pet fish, but I’m glad my parents didn’t let me..
@@crowruffles lol i watch him too, great content
Yeah
It's so incredibly stupid how UA-cam condones and promotes content featuring animal abuse, but won't let creators *talk* about it.
I'd rather buy a fighter jet and shoot missiles at their stupid hq
They don’t want creators pointing it out because it makes them ad revenue. Same reason they let other harmful content stay up on this website for so long-profits over all else.
I think it's fucked that UA-cam demonetizes adults content for swearing or something, but they're fine with content for kids abusing animals and/or basically being nightmare fuel.
@@singingwolf8997 I agree. It is fucked that UA-cam fine with content for kids that promote animal abuse.
@@singingwolf8997 i think they need demonetize both type of content...
People treating animals like toys is the most disturbing thing ever in my opinion.
It hurts my heart so much as an animal lover
I form connections and bonds with them when I can, even if they're not as smart as us they're still incredibly intelligent and their lives are precious
@@lilydoherty5050 it really is, I've got my cat cuddled up with me right now and she's my world, I've only ever owned cats but even fish and hamsters deserve the respect of their lives
People can be truly cruel
@@starchild8822 You are very inspiring. Glad we agree on animal cruelty. It makes me really upset, like how can they do this without feeling so guilty.
I own rabbits but I still feel for this other animals.
@@lilydoherty5050 aw rabbits are awesome! I once took care of my cousins for a few days and he was one of the big ones (flemish giant or smth?) Very cute dude
It it they used fake fish and hamsters, it would've been totally fine, but those are literally real animals, being used as TOYS
Seeing the cat fish struggle to swim was just hard to watch
Fr
The "best" part was when the catfish decided it would rather take the risk of drying out in the search for habitable waters than spend one more second in that sad puddle and just left.
As someone who has observed and caught catfish in the wild it’s heartbreaking, some live in deep muddy water, other catfish live in secure pools and hunt toward the bottom. They get massive and need lots of space and food, not a little bin with a bit of water inside and no filter
I feel bad for the catfish in the 1st video. The poor fish fell out because it was so cramped.
@@summerthelammyandliftykinn2186 Depending on the species, it may have left intentionally. Smaller catfish can move on land pretty well for fish, their flat underside allows them to stay upright and push forward using their tail. Some species like the walking catfish have more adaptations to moving on land.
I constantly have to block channels like this on my daughters phone. She only gets videos aimed at 6years and under, yet every time I let her watch UA-cam she finds another one of these weird knock off videos. I hate it.
Omg you're a parent who actually moderates what their kids are watching AND doesn't like the abuse shown on there? you're a blessing. most just mindlessly let their kids sit on their devices and watch what they want because they can't be bothered taking care of them.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏You seem like an amazing parent, actually moderating your daughter's viewed content.
I recommend you create a playlist of videos that are safe for her to watch, and thank you for moderating what your child watches, it will benefit her in the future
I think UA-cam doesn't let you make playlists with "made for kids" videos
@@otomodachifan UA-cam does, but UA-cam kids doesn't. At least for the younger age groups.
im not even a water animal person but knowing how much these poor babies are suffering just enrages me
Same
Same it makes me sad
Theyre fish💀
@@totallynotobsessive lmao they’re living creatures 💀
@@Zee__1 its a literal fish
the small reptile in the video is not a gator but a baby caiman, which are generally far more aggressive than gators 😅 which makes it even worse tbh
I don't know where those Videos are made but where I live you definitely need a license for keeping animals like that
I feel like the only reason it wasn't attacking the hamster was probably because it wasn't aware of the hamster. I feel like that would've been a whole different video if it had been facing the other way.
Caimans and alligators are in the same family
@@singingwolf8997 it could've also been traumatized or exhausted
@@lonely_saturn but they're still not alligators, they're just related to them
I feel incredibly bad for the poor animals that have to be put through that. And ever since i started to watch this channel it opened my eyes about the truth about these sort of videos same with the tiktoks thanks soda pets for helping me.
Same
Agreed.
Agreed
Same here I feel really bad 😔
Agreed.
I don't have those animals and don't know much about them, but it is so extremely obvious how unhappy and stressed they look. It's honestly disturbing.
Even a cat mixed with a hamster like come on dawg
I agree so much I used to have some of those... This is sad...
Ipad kids life be like 😍
Poor pets
Seeing that turtle laying upside down broke my heart I’m 95% it was dead I have never once seen my turtle float on her back
Well as someone who visibly takes on more care of them it can happen if they get dizzy or sick or when people give them too shallow water and when you see that you turn them back IMMEDIATELY since it is well known to create life long trauma to their brain when they survive
@@draalttom844 i learned something today about my turtle lol I knew it wasn’t good for sure but I’m hoping the poor thing was just dizzy
I want to note how some of these videos still have comments enabled despite them clearly being made for children. Videos uploaded have to declare themselves as being made for kids or not, and videos made for kids have their comments disabled, among other things. I love UA-cam not actually moderating their platform 😍 /s
True
And when they try to moderate they get rid of the helpful stuff and keep the bad stuff
Tbh it’s probably good that comments are enabled so we can comment on the abuse in the videos so kids can see
@@GarnachoEmpire712 I agree but I also don't want to give them more views than before.
@@mspeacepanther trust me it doesnt make a difference your view wont even give them a penny but if you comment on these videos you could warn kids not to copy the video and potentially save some animals
UA-cam kids really hasn’t gotten any better even after the Elsagate controversy. The fact that they still allow similar content to make it through the algorithm, including content with blatant animal abuse, just goes to show that they wanted to save face.
What’s Elsagate? Surprisingly, I’m not a 5yo that watches else spider man-
@@prettyiestsnakealive It was when everyone realized the fucked up cartoons being shown to kids and called for UA-cam to take action.
@@prettyiestsnakealive a kids cartoon which was banned from youtube because they sexualised elsa spiderman and other characters in 2018
When I’m older I also want to spread animal awareness so animal abusers are more a aware and it should also become a crime.
exactly, why isn't it a crime? these people clearly have tons of poor suffering animals INCLUDING EXOTIC ONES LIKE ALLIGATORS stashed somewhere, and they're literally uploading evidence online for anyone and everyone to see like they're proud of it. the police could do everything about this for once if only they cared. they could literally wipe this kind of video abuse off UA-cam if they just tried..🤦
@@sunnypeach1328Same! I will FIGHT and ROAR LIKE A TIGER for the animals' wellbeing!!
In most western countries it is a crime but the sentences are a joke at best.
In the UK the maximum sentence for animal cruelty is 6 months and a ban on owning animals but usually the abuser gets a fine or community service and the ban is only temporary and easily circumvented.
I also think many of these videos are filmed in countries where there are no animal protection laws so there is nothing stopping these people other than the court of public opinion so maybe one day you could be the one who changes that.
@@pinkdiamond1847 thanks it’s my dream
It is a crime depending on the animal
That first video was heartbreaking, the fact that youtube enables these videos to tell kids that its ok to do something likes this but strikes videos speaking up on these disgusting videos is horrible
Oh my- when the catfish just fell off of the table 😭 I can't anymore
Especially since they aim for kids who (most) will believe anything that they see, these videos are basically saying that putting solitary animals together is ok, just dropping fish into shallow water is ok, placing a whole freakin cat in the middle of it is ok!! These videos are also just really weird in general too... and I am concerned for this new generation that I am part of.
True also soda is so good at informing people on this crud!
@@bye427 Hey!! Yes she is informative but also cool and humorus at the same time!
I feel so bad for the catfish the poor thing must've been stressed it probably didn't even make it that long since the drop looked pretty tall
Ok but like for those kid videos, those robotic fish toys would literally be perfect for it, like they even swim around and all of that, but doesn’t involve animal abuse
YT kids has always been weird, it made one of the kids I used to look after obsessed with playing kid napping with her friends and hanging/tying up her dolls with any and all string she could find. I'm sure their was some semi adult stuff in those vids too, I told her mom about my concerns about it but she never did anything about it. But she would never take responsibility for anything, she would just blame me and everyone else for every issue.
Tbh I can't help but wonder if there's more going on with that child her parents sound neglectful at best.
Though I've seen borderline porn on UA-cam being classified as "for kids" on UA-cam before so.
@@pinkdiamond1847 oh they are shitty, I'm still trying to deal with the trauma that I have from that family, and I haven't seen any of them since 2019, it got really bad and I'm very worried since the older girl had the same behaviour I did at her age b4 I started hurting myself.
Just goes to show that UA-cam kids isn’t as innocent as it looks.
Oh, there are so many messed up things on UA-cam kids that this is just the tip of the iceberg.
UA-cam kids is one of scarier places on the internet
They should take them down for animal abuse
@@lmaobirth1321 Fr, but we all know that isn't going to happen in our lifetimes.
and I hate how youtube takes down Soda’s videos for talking about these awful youtubers who do this
These altered reality videos feel like a fever dream. Like aliens trying to understand the human mind. Like the internet is developing sapience and suffering.
That's really f up to see a dead turtle and then a fish fall down. All this is animal abuse. UA-cam don't seem to care. People like these people who abuse animals for likes and views are sick
And let's not forget what they did those goldfishes. Those goldfishes were cramped, and they were literally gasping. It became worst when the dude put more fish in the small area that the goldfishes were in, it only made them even more cramped!
@@summerthelammyandliftykinn2186 that part made me so sad :(
@@kelsi7987 As a someone who used to have two goldfishes, I just wanted to yell "WTF?!" when I saw that dude put those goldfishes in that cramped area.
@@summerthelammyandliftykinn2186 It is so fucked how people care so little about fish, it really is not that hard to do some simple research on proper care for these animals. goldfish grow huge! they need space! people suck man
@@kelsi7987 Goldfishes need be in a gallon water bowl, they can't live a cup.
That poor catfish! It’s crazy that they even let that footage into the video! I have an axolotl at my house, and sometimes I’ll have to pick her up with a container since I’m cleaning her tank. It’s a really really stressful experience, even if you have the right tank requirements, this is because your moving them out of their home without a warning. But this footage was completely over the top! They really shouldn’t have taken the axolotl out with their hands, being brought out of the water and being touched by a hand is really damaging their slime coat. Not to mention the water was pretty shallow and their were fishes everywhere! Thanks for addressing this video! Keep it up!
Them keeping that catfish footage in is extra baffling since, just like the turtle, it just suddenly disappears after its scene
Does removing fish out of the tank with a container help them with stress? Because I’ve been putting my fish into a small separate tank (for about an hour at most) when cleaning the tank. I do it because he’s a telescope and I fear he’ll get ragdolled by me putting water in the tank or if I accidentally scoop him up with the bucket. The idea of my fish being hurt stresses me out.
UA-cam:sees bad video that is horrible
UA-cam: that’s ok 👍
Sodapets: calls them out
Also UA-cam: NOPE NOPE 👎 no no no no no no!
These videos do have a real affect on how kids view animals. My 6 year old sister is now a monster. I no longer contact my old family its been a year of no contact and I am better for it. I would rather not stick around where I have no power then watch the family dog and cats be tortured by her and her parents.
I'm sorry that sounds terrible.
I'm really lucky to have come from a family of animal lovers.
Contact the animal welfare authority in your area
PLEASE READ THIS IS VERY SERIOUS
My parents don't do anything with my dog. He's a newfoundland and is a boy named levi. All he does is sit and laydown, eat, sleep and go outside to go to the bathroom. If he moves at all when he is sitting. He gets yelled at or sometimes get told he'll be killed. Its also true that my parents hate levi because imheard my dad say "i hate this dog hes so stupid i dont want him anymore. My dad is much worse then my mom with him. If he doesn't listen, he'd drag him to his grate with so much force, put him in his crate and hit his cage(sometimes)then leaves. I remember once levi didn't listen I think was to like sit or something when he was outside, he didn't listen so he was dragged so hard and he was thrown into his cage. But it was so bad my mom got mad at dad. My brother always laughs because he deosnt understand yet, I tell him its not funny. I also remember levi got his fave pushed into is food bowl for eating when he wasn't sopposed yet (just so you know, levi has to wait like 10 minutes before he could eat, longer then that at night when it's his dinner).the messed up thing is, my brother thinks it's normal and made a pet for a character which is a black dog like levi but a girl and he thinks that dogs only need to eat, sleep, sit and go to the bathroom. I don't wanna tell anyone, in real life but I will tell on the Internet because my parents will never watch these videos.
@@WATERDRINKERRAHHH this is horrible animal cruelty and I’m so sorry for Levi. I don’t know how old you are or if it’s safe for you to tell your parents how you feel, but you should consider telling them what you think, or showing them a video or some reading if you think it could help. If possible, contact the animal welfare authorities in your area and ask them for their advice or file a report.
@@camdendodik3190 thank you for noticing my reply. And I'm 12 and ganna turn 13 in 4 days. I should tell them about it but they probably won't care. But I'll try to tell someone soon
Gotta love how the COPPA update was supposed to "protect the kids", but actually just gave everyone free license to expose kids to more damaging content.
And for some reason it prevents parents from making playlists of content they themselves have screened and know to be appropriate.
I understand why comments and targeted ads had to be banned and I can sort of understand the logic in disabling mini player but I can't for the life of me understand why they won't allow "kids" videos to be put into playlists.
@@pinkdiamond1847 I still don´t get the logic behind the miniplayer thing. Why is it disabled?
Playlists were banned because ppl with an unhealthy interest in children were caught sharing playlists & timestamps where kids unknowingly did things they liked. F-cking disgusting but I think the playlist feature should be brought back for content aimed at children which does not feature any child participants.
Poor things! I saw my little sister watching one of those "aquarium videos" where they throw random salt water and fresh water animals into shallow little pools. I tell her to stop watching those videos but I don't think she understands... Another video I saw was the took a flipping axolotl to a beach, a salt water beach and let it swim. They then took it out of the water and it died... they said "AWWWW look it's sleeping" 0_o and as someone who owns an axolotl all I can say is- what the absolute f***??? Seriously, are adults this dumb? (No offense to those who are actually knowledgeable on how to take care of an animal-- like keeping an aquatic in water...)
10:14, exactly... don't pet an axolotl as if they are cats or dogs-- they has delicate slime coats.... an occasional boop is fine but-- wow. these youtubers...
I think the best thing to do is either tell your parents or explain to her yourself. Depending on the age it’ll probably be a pain to explain since kids loose interest so easily (I have little brothers can’t tell them anything). But I think you might have to tell her that they’re dead. But the better option is to tell your parents.
definitely explain why you don't want her to watch, and how they are hurting and killing these animals. Knowing that animals should be treated with respect and what isn't acceptable conditions for an animal is important.
I still have memories of how I brought a few tadpoles from the nearby pond to school to show for kindergarten. It was a small container and I had only meant to bring them for the day and then release them, but the teacher had me keep them at school. I had a bad feeling about it and knew something was wrong, but couldn't articulate it and just trusted the teacher.
Every single one of them died and I still feel guilty for bringing them in.
@@callmecharlie4250 WTF is wrong what that teacher?
How do you make it to adulthood and make it through at least 2 years of university without realising that animals of all kinds need food to live? I highly doubt that the teacher knew what the tadpoles ate or fed them.
@@callmecharlie4250 hey we've all been on that route too. When I was in Kindergarten I brought my guenia pig sam to school and lookng at it now... wth. guenia pigs are social and also are prone to stress.
THOSE PEOPLE ARE BITCHESSSSS
Has anyone seen the tik tok of a woman finding her kid on youtube kids with some kid shows characters saying things like "your worthless" and "your a bad person" and other weird fucked up things
What??? Do you have a video link for this, because wtf
@@ijustlikebees yes please
I need to know what on earth that is because wth
@@sunnypeach1328 youtube kids channels are a deep disturbing rabbit hole
Wasn’t that cartoon incorporated? The UA-cam channel Mamamax did a video on?
@@embroideredragdoll I don't think that's it? Cartoon incorporated was a whole other can of worms
At that age the alligator is probably in more danger than the hamster, you can even see it moving away.
I think the "swollen face" is actually just the mirrored image at the bottom of the "tank" (the fish in the same shot is also mirrored, just higher up so there is a clear separation)
Otherwise I absolutely agree, this is gross. Kids are just going to see bright colours and not think twice about the health of those animals, and many parents also won't
"tank"😂
The fact that these are the videos that get monetized, and are 100% made for kids, yet some peoples entire careers ended over night due to coppa marking there channel made for kids even when it’s wholesome content.. 🙄
Ikr
YT 2017 but way worse
Reporting them and telling UA-cam that it’s child endangerment will help keep those videos off the platform if enough people do that.
There should really be a category for animal abuse when it comes to flagging videos.
I remember finding a video with a dog puppy and a baby macaque (yes, a baby macaque) eating a chocolate surprise egg.
OH *GOSH.* LINK IF YOU CAN FIND IT?
What's a macaque?
@@E0003-j9f It's a monkey (rhesus macaques for example.) Highly intelligent, very social and should not be kept as a pet.
They really said “hey cat here’s some different prey items that are already stressed and vulnerable, take your pick”
Judging from the markings, that probably was an actual croc baby or possibly a caiman.. I sure hope they have the proper housing for it somewhere, or at least gave it to someone who can take good care of it as it grows..
Turtles can't breath while on thier backs, and they don't sleep like that. Rest in piece, little turtle. As well as all the animals those videos have harmed.
And the fact he saw the turtle on it's back and didn't save it and let it die is infuriating
Imagine this, you are just chilling in your bed and someone puts you in a tiny freezer with little oxygen, thats basically these "aquariums" for the fish
thank you so much for doing this, not enough people realize how wrong it is.
I love your content and you spread awareness, Because if anything happened to my snake I would be SO SO sad
So thank you!
It might be kinda sadistic to watch these but, thanks so much for warning us! I remember that when I was younger I used to watch similar videos but fortunately without the poor animals, they were like... cringy play-doh videos with elsa and random disney characters 💀 but now seriously, why do people do that, and they're ADULTS
I researched why the axolotls face might be swollen! Someone wrote this!
"This sounds just like what happened to my axolotl Fang before she died.
It was a case of a swollen jaw as if she was choking, and curled gills but there was absolutely nothing she could have choked on in the tank + the parameters checked out just fine.
I THINK she was experiencing heat stress or stress from temperature change due to a water change i did the weekend she died. I know this post probably means nothing because you say your water is cool, although i thought i'd share what happened to mine since the symptoms are so similar.
But, I did find one really good article which said amphibians experience throat convulsions in situations of heat stress"
God UA-cam kids stuff really keeps looking like thinly veiled fetish content, especially the stuff involving doctors and needles and shit
It's also infuriating seeing people in videos forcing their axolotls to crawl on land. Just because they have legs doesn't mean they will willingly go out of water. If you want something like an axolotl that can go on land, get a tiger salamander instead.
Axolotls can’t even breathe out of water, so forcing them on land is like putting a human in water and holding their head down.
I love your video s and love the fact that your spreading awareness but I don't know how abuse is entertaining to some people like HUH???? But yes sadly people do that the magnetic cubes videos they sometimes have chemicals and fish can't be half covered in water mixing animals without having the experience with the animals together can end badly
YESSS THAT IS VERY TRUE!!!
@@FMISKY94 Yas YOU UNDERSTAND 😮
Does this person realize that he would still get lots of views if he'd just use robotic fish, dolls, plushies and stuff? Leave the animals alone
Agreed. OR USE TOY ANIMALS MADE OF RUBBER OR SMTH
Doesn't even need to use animals either, I'm pretty sure most people would still watch it even if it was just showing off the stuff they've been making
First time I saw any of their channel I thought it was just a magnet builds channel and I was delighted and bookmarked the video to watch later and wanted to subscribe to their channel. Then i saw they kept putting animals in unsuitable situations and that creeped me out too much to subscribe. Magnets are great, animal abuse is not.
@@HarleyHerbert Yeah I was enjoying it when it was just building cool stuff out of magnet's.
If they are only in it for the monetized views, you could even argue that they'd make MORE money by using fake animals/toys:
1. They wouldn't have to replace toys as often as the real animals who die from abuse, stress, etc.
2. They could set up a store or a sponsorship/affiliate to sell they same type of toys they feature.
There's also some weird channels that treat baby chicks in a similar way. I haven't see any youtubers raise awareness about those, unfortunately.
Imagine getting kidnapped. Put into some weird toy house set up. Get locked in the weird toy house. Barely fed. Treated like a toy. Forced to fight others. Forced to jump and go in near death obstacles and treated like that for weeks and months
Sadly this will continue until the public stands up for the most vulnerable.
It's incredible what people are willing to do to fish and how many people turn a blind eye to it.
Ah yes... UA-cam bashes on people doing doing educational videos about human anatomy and bodily functions, people that show medieval arms and armor in a really fun educational way but they ignore these and those videos of horribly mislead "live feeding" that is less of a "give a live rat to a big snake" but rather a "give a random animal that's barely small enough for the other animal to eat and look at how both struggle and possibly suffer".
I mean yea... A lion hunting a gazelle in the wild might not be a quick deal and the lion could get injured... But if you feed pets it should be as save as possible while being as natural as possible...
Edit : As pointed out in the comment below, even for bigger snakes live rats can be hazardous and I've heard some controversy about feeding live rats. I'm not a reptile owner and the most likely non mamal pet I might aquire would be a pacman frog or a pair of dumpy frogs... Those will get live insects... But even if I get a pacman and it gets big I wouldn't give it live mice even if they would fit in its mouth...
Giving a live rat to a big snake is already abuse, a rat can easily arm that snake for life
@@draalttom844 yea... I'm not a snake person... I will definitely add that as an edit to my comment.. I knew that if you do give rats to big snakes owners have to make sure the rat gets killed quickly and one has to take the rat out if the snake doesn't show interest. As far as I know it's always a bad idea to just leave prey animals in an enclosure without checking that they are spotted, killed and eaten in general... And that is my basic knowledge from watching the occasional reptile video by people like Soda, Snakediscovery, Clint etc. purely for entertainment as I am most likely to get a frog if I'll ever get a pet that's not a mammal.
@@annasstorybox7906 their is not good reason to feed live, it's not like a hunting guear in an enclosure is fun either. So just play with a corpse if you feel it's so important to teach them to snap without warnings
@@draalttom844 yep... As I said, I've heard a lot of controversy about it and think that even properly sized prey can be stressful or could injur a snake... I don't think I will ever get a snake but if I got one I would never ever had the idea to feed it a live animal.
I will likely get a frog and I'll feed it live insects with a tong as suggested by suppliers like joshes frogs. Apparently it's not as easy to keep dead insects as nutritious as frozen thawed mice... But I would definitely always make sure that every feeder gets eaten and that there won't be any staying in the enclosure... Depending on the kind of frog I'll get I might even move it into a separate container for feeding...
Farmers/ hunters get punished for making purely educational videos about humanely dispatching animals that are well within animal welfare guidelines whilst this shit gets a pass.
2:25 WHAT THE FRIG, poor catfish : (
Thank you soda for these videos, they are so so important! I refuse to watch any videos like that, I'll only ever see them through channels like yours so I appreciate being updated and knowing what's happening in regards to how social media portrays the treatment of animals
Oh my gosh. Those videos were disgusting. It's so frustrating when they say like "oh, they weren't in these conditions for long" or "they liked it" or "they're fine actually" because kids will accept that at face value without seeking out the information as to whether or not this is actually okay.
I think they infringe one every single one of the five freedoms of animal welfare. Clearly they aren't given the right to be free from illness and injury, considering we've seen the axolotl and their messed up face. They are not free from stress considering the excessive handling. When they touch the alligator/attempt to touch the alligator it snaps at them which is a pretty clear cut sign they are stressed. The goldfish gasping is another example of the stressing of the animals. They aren't free to express natural behaviours since a fish can't really do much in a small barren bin that doesn't even cover them. How's a fish supposed to be able to swim when their belly is constantly dragging along the floor. They're not given the freedom from discomfort since that poor axolotl is probably uncomfortable or in pain. Tying gauze around a hamster is most likely uncomfortable for the hamster.
The only thing I'm not 10000000% sure of is the freedom from hunger and thirst. Technically the lack of continual access to fresh, clean, drinkable water does block does encroach on that right. We don't know what their diet and water situation exactly looks like though.
Because of all these factors I think it is well within reason to call these actions animal a*use
I said it before I'll say it again I have an odd fear of fish but I would never wish harm or death on them so it's just so sad to see, also thank you soda I've been watching you for awhile now, I've learned a lot that I didn't know before that I do now 😊
Some fish in the video are mollies (gold dust/doubloon). I have a juvenile female named Zippy and I'd really want to upgrade her tank. Most if not all mollies in videos are lyretails. I also have a lyretail molly, a platy and 3 guppies, all very active and healthy fish under my care. Filter? Check. Air pump? Check. Now we need a big tank...
I am honestly concerned, i don't even want to know what is going on in these ppl's heads for them to think stuff like this and worse is a good idea. 😭😭
I’ve looked at the channel and it’s all the same thing! All the comments ignore the blatant animal abuse and comment on how ‘satisfying’ the build is. Some even say how much ‘fun’ the fish are having. How do you report a whole channel? This is disgusting.
Fr I hate those people bro and the rainbow magnets dont match the color of the area where the animals came from which is unhealthy
My little sister watches these videos a lot so I told my mom why she shouldn’t let her watch them. She said that it’s fine because the people are just making cool things for their pets 🙄
Block the channels yourself, then. That’s what I did.
@@johnnyjohnnyyespapavideos5699 Okay if I see her watching them again I will
There needs to be a show where they do the whole hamster maze thing
The goal would be to spread awareness about the hamster maze videos
This is why some kids find animals just wandering around (very irresponsible of owners) and abuse them for fun.
THIS
100% true and sad :(...
I know for experience honestly... When i go to a park, where there's some pigeon feed merchants, i obviously want to feed the pigeons *in peace* ... but there's *some KIDS* that SCARE them because they think it's funny >:( so i can't give the corns to the pigeons by hand...
And it's the parents' fault for letting them do that!💔
That baby turtle is absolutely dead... Probably because that person kept screwing with it. Wow, how disgusting. UA-cam needs to get its act together and take action against these people.
Man I get little kids liking bright things and interesting noises but like what happened to like those movies that just had cool toys and sensory things that I watched as a kid, I was perfectly content with that.
You mean Baby Einstein?
I think it was proven to be damaging to kids or something like that but it's still probably less damaging than anything on UA-cam kids.
I’ve always been fascinated and amazed by animals. I’ve loved them all my life and I’m fucking crying rn
Thank you for bringing light to these awful videos. As a childcare worker these are my worst enemy.
Those poor animals! :(
Despite the absolute horrors in these kids videos, your birds always make me vocal stim happily
Whenever these channel says they have the animals in better condition off camera it comes off as "Don't worry! We only abuse our animals for a little while!" Also if they know the behavior is wrong enough to make a pinned comment they probably aren't in better condition cause they don't really care
It’s honestly worse that it’s for kids because they think it’s fine
**(they) is the kids
It's sad to see these types of videos on youtube especially since it for kids, it's heartbreaking. Are there anything that we can do? Like reporting the videos and spreading awareness on those videos? Though I also don't want to give view for them either.
have you ever reacted to that one popular tiktok that's just like "HOW MANY TIMES DID I TELL YOU NOT TO FLOOD THE HOUSE?!" I feel like it would be super stressful and scary for the animals in that one, it's sad...
Plants: fake
Animals: real
Checks out, cool
Poor babys don’t deserve to go through so much, its cruel.
Glad someone said something- my daughter is 7 and watches those vids- I believe the parents need to be aware of wat there kids watch
I like this channel a lot because I see so many things where I’m like “That doesn’t seem like a good idea” or “This is kinda sus. Is it harmful to that animal” but I never really know. I love how you explain specifically why things are bad and being attention to it!
The problem with the magnetic ball houses is kids could have them, and put their pet hamsters onto a house made of them without anyone seeing. The hamsters could eat the magnets if they got some loose, and would die
Omg this needs to stop! Poor little animals 😭 UA-cam needs to do something about this cause this animal abuse is not okay
Also Soda if UA-cam keeps removing your videos please reach out to them and tell them that the other person’s video is animal abuse
i wish parents actually knew about content farms and how awful they are
If I had kids, I’d avoid letting them go online. DVDs and old console games for them from now on, no online access.
9:29 Why the hamsters life like why these adults are like trying to make children do this I hope the hamster is ok and that man gets therapy he seems obbessed with animal abuse
3:42 we also don’t know if anything did happen behind the scenes... since if the cat ever attacked any of the hamsters that would be taken out video anyways
UA-cam when you abuse animal: that’s fine
UA-cam when you show a naked leg: THATS ILLEGAL
Man, people are absolutely horrible.
I walked into hobby lobby and there was this vase with a beta in it and it said “aquarium vases”
It made me so sad
this is horrible!
it annoying that no one even pays attention or knows the harm they are doing. just thinking about it hurts my heart, the poor catfish.
they cant even move-
can i just say i love when the bird jumped on her shoulder and she didnt even jump or looj at the bird she was so comfortable and so was the bird she is a professional with treating animals humanly.
I've seen this sort of thing before too. And I hate this stuff. You've inspired me to speak up on my channel next time I see this kind of thing. Thank you.
I actually used to watch the magnet fish tank videos and my goodness am I happy I learned how to properly care for fish and now goldfish are one of my favorite pets I have ever owned
So many videos involving animal abuse all have that cutesy stock music over it, which for some reason makes it all the more sickening for me. Now I straight up leave any animal video that has cutesy stock music in not only because it’s annoying but because I now associate that audio track with animal abuse.
Someone please bring this to Mamamax’s attention
I'm glad I'm not the only one who does that.
I also now get stressed out by the cutesy music itself even if nothing bad is happening because I associate it with abuse.
I'm honestly concerned how they even managed to snag a catfish and an alligator in the first place. These people clearly aren't even able to keep a turtle in reasonable conditions so why bring in two other creatures that grow bigger, are carnivorous, and need a flipton of space?
I hate it when people use the excuse *“the animals are treated amazing 90% of the time!”* It doesn’t matter, treating them well afterwards doesn’t make up for the fact that you abuse them.
It makes me sad that this still happens because I remember watching it when I was younger and it’s still around.
I feel like UA-cam shouldn't allow these animal abuse videos on the platform.
6:15 just wanted to point out that Syrians and dwarf hamsters are two different species, not breeds. That's why they can't breed with each other 🐹❤☺
Finally, someone's talking about the magnet house videos with animals in them.
my baby siblings have a few hours of tablet/tv a day and i see them watch this stuff. i've tried telling my mom just how mind-numbing and even dangerous these videos can be and she won't listen and i'm honestly sick of it. i adore animals and i just can't watch that bullshit
Maybe see if the kids want to watch a kid friendly animal documentary? Something that will educate them and hold their attention.
Maybe you should try and convince your mum to watch some of the content with the kids instead of using the TV as a babysitter.
I've managed to convince a few parents to give up UA-cam kids this way because they instantly think "it has kids in the title it can't be that bad" but once they actually watch what their children have been watching they understand.
I actually didn't even know such videos existed in the Kids side, i am absolutely enraged that they would do this to their animals let alone normalize it to kids. This is not okay, i really hope these animals are alright because my goodness would that be terrifying for them poor babies.
That catfish scene was unbelievable, what in the actual AND THEN THEY PLAY A SLIDEWHISTLE SOUND EFFECT AS IT FALLS ON THE FLOOR
Thanks for warning us because my brother watches a lot of these video's I love your videos by the way 💜
Thanks for making this video. I also putted a tweet warning parents about those elsagate videos and how I'm just worry for their well-being.
Them birds are like "I CALL BS"
12:01
That is what I think an infection. It makes sense given how mistreated the axolotl is :(
the background audio is exactly what my house is like constantly
NOOOOOO WHY IS HARMING ANIMALS LIKE A TREND?!?! NOOOOO!!!! ITS HORRIFYING HOW MANY VIDEOS THERE ARE THAT INVOLVE HARMING ANIMALS!!! and yes im an animal lover but sometimes scared of SOME but i dont HARM them 😔🪦
I'm glad that Soda is educating us about disturbing children's content because when I was a kid I watched some weird stuff, (not as weird as what we have now) but even as I kid I kinda knew that something was up... 😢
