Yeah, you are right. Only some Ceratiodei species are known to have parasitic males.

I think the strategy of multiple males is perfect since it is so rare for them to find each other. It helps with genetic diversity.

Depending on who you ask, it could be argued the the genus Homosapien has parasitic males... and parasitic females too.

question, miss,,, do large cephalopods have short lifespans and does their copper blood imply the "reverse-supphocat"e at shallow depths..==? @@Seamemaria

Monsters walk on 2 legs

As someone whose followed him for a while on tiktok and has a pretty good animal sense I knew he was good but I'm so relieved to hear he meets standards that mean I will continue to watch him for entertainment and info!

He does but you shouldn’t judge that from one video

Oh damn really? I ....should go check more out...I've grown really weary of those kinds of channels because too much woo woo and not enough book learning. If he's all about getting it right and being hilarious I am so down.

Of course. I’ve seen most if not all his videos, and as someone with a zoology and marine biology degree, I think I have a decent idea of what’s correct lol

He's awesome.

even got a bit of Nicole thrown in the Mix too!.. 🎉

Unrealistic they can mean harm but like with shark and most animals they are not as dangerous as you all believe cause of movies. They can be but 9,2 times its just a normal encounter A bull shark is more aggressive and still you only have like 1 - 3 bull shark incidients each year. If he was that way down he needed to make decom stops multiple times Meaning it dosnt make a difference if they wanted to harm him thy would had. They 100% knew he was there they can see more in water then we since they live there of course. For me this sound like a woobie doobie ghost story of somebody who was never diving.

@@sonicartzldesignerclan5763 tell me you've never encountered Humboldt squid without telling me you've never encountered Humboldt squid.

@@spdcrzy Said by an guy who looks like an muslim terrori

@@sonicartzldesignerclan5763 Humboldt squid are actively aggressive towards humans. This guy was lucky to get out unharmed. They've been known to attack divers and even pursue them all the way to the surface. We believe the reflective properties of most diving gear is why Humboldt squid attack people. The squids can communicate with each other via bioluminescence, so shiny diving gear is interpreted as aggression.

​@@sonicartzldesignerclan5763 bro really just used shark statistics for humbolt squids lol

Its the scientific method. You are right until you are proven wrong

@@roddo1955Also: You are only right when you can no longer be proven wrong

Yupp

I would like to hope most professionals become professionals because they can admit it when they learn something new, but I've seen enough bad apples to know that's not always the case.

Thats what makes them ✨️Professionals✨️

I mean they're literally named "hag fish," those things are just abominations

They may be gross and ugly, but they're cool and wonderful, too!

😂 Discrimination! 🤣🤣🤣 Now lemme see how ugly it is 🏃‍♀️

@@kwarra-an my mom talking about me to her friends single son

i think they are so cute lol 😭 To be fair though turkey vultures are also one of my favorite birds so the eating dead things doesnt phase me I think they look like living sock puppets they are so goofy and constantly tie themselves up into knots and they cover themselves in slime. It looks so silly!

😂 A lot of them look like monsters. But we still Love them. And try to protect them.. I won't eat any of them . 😂

Yep. I stay out of the water, the sharks don't come on land. Besides, where I live the ocean is too cold to swim in anyway.

@@r.awilliams9815 Atlantic?

@@r.awilliams9815 Sharks are the least of your worries. You're more likely to get struck by lightning. Twice. I'm way more scared of jellyfish and all the other stupidly venomous critters down there.

@@sandrawilkinson3782I'd eat any of them once, as long as they weren't toxic or endangered.

What's awesome is that an actual marine biologist can go let's fact check this, and then "I didn't know this" from a semi comedy channel. Casual Geographic earned serious respect for doing his best to keep it real.

I know! I really enjoy watching their videos. Nature is fascinating enough without having to make stuff up about it!

@@Seamemaria I don't know many fiction writers who could come up with how Anglerfish males and females interact. Nature, especially in the deep ocean, can get Hella weird.

I got hooked on Casual during the pandemic. I'm happy that this video corroborated his obviously extensive research on his subjects.

@@SeamemariaAnd you know what I enjoy about your videos is that you laud them and lift them em up! It's so wonderful seeing a fellow animal lover praising Mamadou & Lindsay for their hard work and funny videos. I also love that you're not nit picky about things...some zoologists/marine biologists have picked apart every little thing that Mamadou & Lindsay have said in their videos, which really doesn't do anyone good. Keep up the good work and one day I hope you get to come visit my home state 'cause I think you'd fall in love with this place! Sending lotsa love & aloha from Honolulu to you & your entire ohana! 😁🤙🏾 ♥️🌈☀️ (Hawai’i symbols)

Good thing sharks are typically quite friendly

Youre mentioning sharks cause youre following mainstream thoughts. Let me tell you something There are onl y 6-15 incidents each year with sharks And most are accidents through their test bite Since sharks dosnt have arms of course they use other methods to test things out. Well that dosnt mean it will come up and bite you every time a shark appear But if you lure a shark with specific methods like a bottle or fish box They dont come naturally and investigate you out of curiosity You lure them and they come in hunter mode And can hardly difference between you as a human thats not his food and the things you as human used to lure him. Of course the chance to get bitten is high And of course most times incidents happen it was through such things with amateur diving leader wanting to show of the sharks to tourists and stuff. Trust me the chance that dolphin will have special playtime with you is far more high then a shark attacking you. Id personally take my chance rather with a shark then with a dolphin that is highly intelligent and has fun out of making other animals suffer. And with suffer and special playtime yes i mean they will make you their little toy it happened already you can google it up.

this is true, but the more cool, gigantic things in that ocean, the better lol

Only if you go anywhere near where they can go!!

​@@Khaleel85are you new to the scientific community?

it's the type of reaction content i'm here for!

I found it annoying that she kept talking over what each contributor was saying. The few times she paused and then spoke were not enough to keep me watching. I'm fascinated by the deep ocean and it's secrets. My daughter wants to be a marine biologist. The trick is with these "viewer reacts" videos is to pause and explain, then restart and move on to next clip. I quit a third of the way through

I, too, personally prefer when they pause the video to comment about it, I have a hearing loss that makes it almost impossible to understand anything when there is multiple people talking at the same time 😢

It's adorable, but upsetting. Couldn't finish the video.

You people should be watching a "reacts to" video for the person reacting and not the videos they're reacting to, that makes literally zero sense, you can quite easily go find the videos that these people are reacting to and watch them for yourself especially given that a good reaction channel like this one will go out of their way to link the original channels in the description as well as the videos themselves. If you click on a reaction video and get upset about the person's reaction it's literally entirely your fault and not even remotely theirs, go watch the videos yourselves if you want the information from the videos themselves, and leave the reaction videos for until afterwards. What you're asking for is ostensibly for her to steal other people's content by showing it in full and uninterrupted and saving anything that would be transformative for afterwards, which evidently you have no interest in.

Definitely about the anglerfish

This. I’m scared from touching the bottom of a pond. I will never go in any deep water.

yeah the kelp worries me enuf already...

Casual Geographic is the perfect teacher. Entertaining humor and information.

great whites are so derpy looking sometimes it's adorable. I recently learned that since they don't have lungs they can't sneeze so if they get anything in their noise they just just gotta try shake it out heh

​@@felixhenson9926See the parasites some of 'em have hanging like bogies out of their nostrils!😖

@@felixhenson9926 they just get goofier the more I learn

Yes this!

When I see a squids eyes I'm just so envious. Their eyes are a lot better designed than ours are. In fact their eyes are not related to ours. That part of creatures split from our trunk in the tree of life before eyes were developed. So they had to develop eyes on their own. In other words they are really as far from our eyes as the facet eyes of insects are. And the eye construction they use are better than ours in just about every way. The only problem I think they have are a very short lifespan. A bit more life and a slightly more robust brain and they would be competing for apex predator on earth.

I ❤LOVE❤ HER!🎉 And did you see that she actually got sponsored by the Vlog Brothers? The SciShow (?) guy & the history guy? That was SO COOL! The only problem with The Octopus Lady is that she just started so I've already been through her backlog. Sob!

SHE PLAYES SUBNAUTICA?!

Uhh right! I corrected it because I was thinking of plural vs singular. But you are right. Thanks!

Yes! I love the subjunctive mood. You are worthy of the name of 'bard', sir, and I'm glad to see someone else who comments on the English used in videos rather than just the topic of their content. You encourage me! P. S. Yeah, I know single quotation marks are nonstandard in American punctuation, and that the comma should (supposedly) be inside the quotation, but I insist on writing this way because I think it makes more sense - and because I'm a Tolkien admirer. I know, I'm getting unnecessarily defensive. Cheers and God bless. :)

So im not the only nerd in here 😅

He's *Casual Geographic*

Pausing to comment is great, talking over him to comment is not so great. Very informative nonetheless.

They come up shallow to spawn here in the Puget sound. They get big, but not that big. Amazing creatures though, I saw one washed up once.
