I'm embarking on a lifelong quest to find and film every single animal in the UK! There's 742 critters that I'm after, so that should keep me busy for the next few decades.
Now, I'm not exactly an animal or a photography expert... but join me as we learn as we go and uncover some of the more mysterious little creatures, as well as your day to day pigeons, together.

There's something so humorous about watching a guy be ecstatic over finding a lizard. Hope you have luck in finding all the animals, it'd be interesting to see how things differ from here in the States. That blackbird already looks way different than the blackbirds we have in the Midwest.

Haha yeah I'm sure everyone from lizardy countries is a bit baffled but reptiles are super uncommon to see here! I hope you enjoy the future episodes 😄

Possibly the best video I have randomly came across on KZfaq. If you need some ideas on how to better find reptiles and amphibians there are plenty of herping videos you can watch on KZfaq. You already are doing one good thing in that every stone or piece of metal or log you turn over put back how you found it as that is someones home and you don't want to destroy it. Also, release any animal caught back where you got it. I look forward to following you on your journey.

@CreatureChroniclesUK Ай бұрын

You just made my day 😃 I'm thrilled that you liked it and I'll definitely check out some herping videos for more tips. I can't wait to get some good adder footage especially.. I'm going to attempt to find a green lizard in Bournemouth next month too!

3:57 I think thats a Latticed Heath moth. I know you're not planning on doing insects, but maybe consider a moth special sone time. Borrow a trap from someone and stick it out on a warm, cloudy night. You may be surprised at the variety we get here in the UK.

@CreatureChroniclesUK 19 күн бұрын

@doingmybest6438 awesome thanks for letting me know! I actually have a moth trap I haven't gotten around to using 😂 I will definitely do a moth special at some point that's a great idea and I'm actually really curious to see what we have.. There's a few unidentified ones in my most recent video too if you happen to know what they are

That is a great start especially the 2 lizards. I lived in the UK until I was 28 but I only ever saw 2 lizards one of which was in the dunes at Studland. I could tell you where I saw it but that was about 1967, so I think he would have moved by now!

@CreatureChroniclesUK 11 күн бұрын

Haha yeah he might be in a slightly different spot now 😂 I saw more lizards yesterday near Bournemouth, I got some waaaay better sand lizard footage which was awesome!

Just like Pokemon but in real life and without the catching lol. Good luck on the quest, I'm tuning in from the Netherlands. Gotta see 'em all 🦔

@CreatureChroniclesUK Ай бұрын

Haha 😂 I so nearly called this series Pokemon IRL! There's so many similarities, if I find them and they get away before I film them it's just like Pokemon running away in the game! I'm basically working on a real life Pokedex.. thanks for joining the quest!

I know nothing about British snakes but here in Australia, if you are going to pick up a piece of corrugated iron you ALL WAYS lift it with the opening AWAY FROM YOU!! Why you may ask ?? If there is a angry snake under there, the tin is between you and the snake if it decides to try and bite you. You for 1 have a sheet of iron between your body and their teeth but 2, you can drop the iron back on top of it quick smart and hope that gives you time to run! Any poisonous snakes in pommy land?

@CreatureChroniclesUK Ай бұрын

Thank you for your concern ☺️ we only have one venomous snake here, the adder, and there's only been 14 deaths since 1876 from them so they're not really worth worrying about.. I'm pretty sure if I did this series in Australia I'd already be dead 😂

@jaded9087 29 күн бұрын

@@CreatureChroniclesUK lol. Just out of concern , dont be number 15. Yes there are lots of things here that want to kill you here but most strike out of fear so we manage to say alive by treating wildlife with respect and lifting tin is a safe manner. You are looking for that adder, yes ? Just keep in mind that with venomous snakes, the babies are the most venomous as they are born with all the venom of an adult but they have no control on how much they release. They will pump all they have in to you in one bite.

I'm pretty sure your number of mammals includes many species of cetaceans some of which are quite rare. I think they'll be your most elusive. Really great quest btw

@CreatureChroniclesUK Ай бұрын

Yes it will include them.. they'll certainly be a challenge 😂 down the line I hope to recruit the help of experts for the real tricky creatures. Thanks for your support!

@Jon-hb4yd Ай бұрын

@@CreatureChroniclesUK For land mammals the very rarest, like wildcats are very site specific and experts will be easy to find recruit (I live in the Cairngorm and have found prints in winter). Wild stoats and weasels are really hard to spot.... but I guess you'll be spending a lot of time in hides. Again, really epic quest. Hats off for even contemplating it.

@CreatureChroniclesUK Ай бұрын

Thank you mate 😊 that must have been exciting to even find prints of the wildcat! I'll definitely need to do a lot of Scottish trips to find a lot of the creatures. Hopefully I'll get some good luck here and there to help me along the way too!

@Jon-hb4yd Ай бұрын

@@CreatureChroniclesUK I’d been out solo for several months by that point. A lot of magical moments, but finding fresh paw prints so crisp and clear, and being far enough away from any farm or residence to be sure it wasn’t domestic, it was a very special experience. I tracked it for about 10-20ft and even over that short distance it tells a story. Of course will be happy to help if I’m in the area anytime you’re passing through.
