I'm loving the fact that you guys can afford to make these monstrously long videos and still maintain the quality of your shorter ones. Many thanks, and much love.

This feels like a full on documentary film, which is definitely a nice change up to have once in a while. Paints the bigger picture of a whole area, rather than just one species too. And I'm loving the gorgeous fur seals, bandicoots and penguins.

In an interview, Pikachu's creator Atsuko Nishida said that she based Pikachu on a Japanese squirrel and a stuffed rice mochi called daifuku. According to Nishida, her concept for Pikachu was originally a white rice ball with black button eyes and green leaves for bunny-like ears, but Nishida got a better idea for Pikachu while feeding squirrels in the park and thus Pikachu got its cheek pouches, tail and other rodent features. But despite that, this is an interesting documentary about Australian animals and wildlife.

@CMZneu 10 ай бұрын

15:30 This is actually very cool but could be explained better, just like a boat traveling on water fish leave a wake trail behind them, the vortices in the water can remain quite a long time effectively forming a trail leading right to the fish who made them, on contact whiskers can detect this trail fast and precise enough for the seal to practically follow it at a fast enough speed to catch up to the fish, they can even do this blindfolded, since some water has very low visibility so it makes sense how they are still able to catch fish despite not being able to see very well.

@martinellis38 10 ай бұрын

I live near a white Ibis nesting ground in the southeastern suburbs of Melbourne. I've never seen them outside the wetlands nor seen raid bins (that is the population here). I have them do that in Sydney. I think the problem is where Sydney built itself and how they treat their garbage.

No, their last common ancestor lived 100 million years ago. Hedgehogs are more closely related to blue whales (and all other placental animals) than to echidna. It's just an amazing case of convergent evolution!
