Being a fan of clints reptiles for so long .... HOW am I just now discovering this??!! Thank you for giving a shout out to your own channel lol. And I mean that more sincerely than you know. This is awesome!!!
Tidbits for those reading through the comments: This relationship also affects a creature's ability to store or shed heat, since that depends on surface area. A mammal in cold climates may find it easier to grow larger, because it looses less heat to the air for it's body mass. the opposite is also true. A Fennec Fox isn't particularly big, and it has big wide ears to add to it's surface area and aid in cooling.
Clint, you're the best! You have a unique gift of passionately educating people and this channel is exactly what the world needed! You were the one (with Snake Discovery) to make me hyped about reptiles and now I'm hyped about this channel and everything that will follow Mark my words, this channel will explode with subscribers within a few years (hopefully sooner)!
This is awesome! How long has this channel been around and why is UA-cam just now getting around to telling me about it?! Seriously! Anything with Clint should be at the top of my news feed!
I like what you got going on but i gotta say im super intrested in the anatomy of these animals and the way you explain them. Like the salamanders, i really look forward to that
Truly fascinating, so glad you highlighted your second channel, never hurts to learn something new from such a brilliant kindhearted person☺️. Hope your gorgeous wife, and adorable wee little ones are doing well. Thank you ever so much for sharing and best wishes always.
I like you on general principle because you're a great presenter. I love the reptiles and other creatures you have on your (other) show and am starting to really like this adjunct to your output. Outstanding work and greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Love this explanation, and the little graphics that illustrate the concept! Could Clint perhaps explain what good it does to get a tetanus shot AFTER you’ve already been potentially exposed to tetanus (bitten by a dog, stepped on a nail, etc.)?
I once saw a comment that it didn't matter if the larger dinosaurs were warm blooded by active thermogenesis because they couldn't help but be warmer than their surroundings because of their surface-to-volume ratio.
As a horse owner I can say for absolute certain they do splash when in the water 😂 they love it but joking aside fun video Clint thank you for your informative videos as well as your content on Clints reptiles
Danger ropes (snakes) have a great surface area to volume ratio! I imagine many of them would be fine falling out of an airplane! You even see many bacteria mimicking this cylinder/pill shape to take advantage of the higher surface area it provides (and thus better excretion and respiration)
"If a mouse falls out of an airplane, it will generally hit the ground."
You learn something new every day
Indeed, apparently they won't ALL the time.

Splash seems like a very kind way to say splat lol
Clint explains is quicly becoming one of the best science oriented youtube chanel out there! Even if this chanel just started out!
Yes, and I sooo looked forward to it!
I wish you were one of my teachers in school. I learn more from these short videos than I did all 4 years of highschool. this channel is awesome!

These are so great! Concise, entertaining, and a great review for all the things I’m forgetting from college! lol

So glad I found this channel!!!! Clint is amazing

I love you as a reptile expert and now I love you as a science guy. Great channels!
I love clints reptiles Channel but I can't believe I just discovered this one!!!its awesome!!!
This concept was also explained by a channel called kurgzgesagt.

I would love to see a Clint Explains video on how parthenogenesis works in reptiles.

That's a really cool idea!
@@clintexplains5327 ooh, or rabies! Incubation period would be a fun video!
Can you do a video on the evolution of monotremes??
That's a great idea!
🙂 even when I already know what you're talking about, I still love listening
The square cube law for the win!
I once saw a comment that it didn't matter if the larger dinosaurs were warm blooded by active thermogenesis because they couldn't help but be warmer than their surroundings because of their surface-to-volume ratio.
did not really learn something new here but a like is still deserved for sure
Is it that the insects dont have bones? So that way all their insect meat wont stay togheter for being so big?
An insect does have bones, they're just on the outside of the insect's body.
Please don't splash horses. I know a horse that is 18 hands and he loves pets and attention from everyone. He's like a giant dog
"our old friend the square-cube law"
Biblaridion anyone?
Just found this through Instagram.
As a horse owner I can say for absolute certain they do splash when in the water 😂 they love it but joking aside fun video Clint thank you for your informative videos as well as your content on Clints reptiles
This video reminded me of math class, which is why I liked it so much

I love this so much ❤️ thank you for making such great content. Wish you had been my science teacher 😂
If a horse is gonna splash, wonder what will happen to a blue whale, sheesh!! That will be gross, will it?!
Please please please please do an episode on parthenogenisis!
But I thought in prehistoric times insects were huge?
Bigger, but not the size of a cow or anything.
@@clintexplains5327 can u explain why they cant get huge? They would crush under their own weight?
If you take away the air would the mouse splash?
Absolutely
Well hi there!
Now what am I supposed to say??
@@clintexplains5327 Wops, I forgot that's yours legendary phrase 😲 Here, take it back 🤭 Btw as always amazing video
Wow!!
