Did Lex bring a suit into the jungle and table for his podcast? Like, "i havent showered and shaved but i got to look classy for my podcast"

@jamesfullwood7788 Ай бұрын

To be honest I still don't get the whole suit thing Lex religiously adheres to...

Nightime in the Amazon is louder and busier than midtown Manhattan!!! I will never forget my first night trying to 'sleep' in a treehouse there

It's easy to find Puma sign but hard to see them. They leave tracks which are unique to them. They leave spore which is usually full of deer hair. Other animals don't eat the hair off the deer but Puma's do. Puma's like to lay at a high spot overlooking an area. They make a slight indentation in the soil. If you search you can find Puma hair which is unique. So maybe you never saw the Puma but you definitely know they are there.

I live in the high mountain desert and, believe it or not, there is one rabbit who appears to be fascinated with me. He will just stop, stare at me and, if I don't move, he will hop closer (pause and repeat; pause and repeat). We have played this 'game' many times, and under different circumstances I'd totally be feeding and petting it. However I show my love and affection for him by NOT encouraging such behavior - as my 100-lb dog would just *love that little snack* ... I guess one could say we are in a 'long-distance relationship' 🐰💞 p.s. Love listening to you both. Wish I could share my Amazonian experiences with you (it's definitely an unpredictable place 💜)

He was hunting you. You are obviously not very intimidating, sir.

It is so incredibly hard to start a fire in the rainforest. I couldn't do it

Last week I was driving across eastern Oregon. Nearest gas station was 100 miles away. I was on a 2 lane road in the middle of nowhere when a pronghorn deer crossed the road 100 yards in front me. I was traveling at about 70 mph when I quickly slowed to 10 mph. It stopped and stood in my lane and just looked at me. I went to pass it in the oncoming lane at 10 mph when the thing turned, ran back in front of me and almost got hit. I share this story for 2 reasons. Some animals are really dumb. And it's best to come to a complete stop when you see a deer in the road because they almost act as if they want to get hit.

Pronghorns are basically squirrels. So dumb. 😂

Please be gentle. They have anxiety and don’t know where to go.

Instincts and critical thinking are two separate subjects. So awesome seeing this discussion. So interesting too me. But throw the theory of relativity at anything besides humans

I think parrots and some sea mammals are really intelligent

@timmy-wj2hc Ай бұрын

Apes, crows, octopuses, dolphins, and most animals are intelligent.

he‘s always talking about „seeing things“ (like the Tapir the size of a cow). Aren‘t Cameras one of the most important things for conservationists and scientists doing field work?! We want to see it too 🙃

@guitarriff123 Ай бұрын

Dude immediately comes out and says JJ’s dad doesn’t make things up and then proceeds to say a Tapir is the size of a cow. 🤦🏼‍♂️😂

@danielharrington5690 Ай бұрын

Tapirs can grow to around 700 pounds which is about the size of a 200 day old cow calf. So.. ehh yeah you're right.

@wejsmith5446 18 күн бұрын

It coulda been a dexter( around 600lb) or a mini zebu( around 350lb) Since hes all aover the world, his idea of "cow" may be different than a domestic cow in merica or england etc. Bigger is better only works for very large pastures and/or high amounts or completely grain bag fed. Youd need a smaller breed thats good at foraging since supplemental grains likely isnt happening out their in/near the jungle. OR hes just a filthy fuqin liar

@albertc2390 16 күн бұрын

To be fair, that is his statement. He didn't say the dad said it was that big.

@brycerunyan889 12 күн бұрын

Worked at a butcher shop, butchered plenty of 700 lb cows.

@davidbrickman4880 Ай бұрын

Cow is at least twice as heavy as a tapir

Apes, dolphins, elephants, orca, octopus, ravens, crows etc are all extremely intelligent animals. Octopus can solves fairly complex mathematical problems, ravens and crows have regional dialects and a very complex language and social structure. Elephants actually morn their dead and hold ceremonial "burials" for them. Orcas have been obersved very recently coming up completely new ways to hunt their prey. If that isn't intelligence, I don't know what is...Just because we can't communicate with them, doesn't mean they aren't intelligent. If humans weren't around, or didn't evolve the level of intelligence we did, one of those species wphkd have gone on to be the dominant super intelligent species on the planet.
