American animals seem pretty mundane to me, but we have all sorts of folk stories explaining our animals. It's just how humans do. We make stories and try to explain things.

@@GuyNamedSean what exactly do you mean by mundane

@@GuyNamedSeanI have examples of crazy american animals for you- the snapping turtle, the grizzly bear, wolverine, loads of snakes, gator, buffalo, elk- I could go on.

Underrated

Gotta maximize all potential stat gains. But start with minus in everything.

*pushes randomize

Yet people seem to think that in real life, there is no designer and it’s all a big wild accident

Custom builds yo the platypus is like one of those weird Minecraft mods that creates new mobs

Make sure that the inventions of that not so evil professor end with "____nator" in it's name..

Tri-state-inator

I’m pretty sure you meant evil pharmacist.

Curse you Perry the Platypus!

We should train all platypuses to push a destructive button

This is both hilarious and horrified

This man is using his big brain for evil.

Platypus custard.

working on it :)

Yes please do. genuinely very fun and interesting to watch. Your work is highly appreciated

Yesss please do

Yes please do

Do Dropbears ??? They're Australia's most feared mammal

Severely underrated!

the irs is here for ur money

@@Think_Inc was thinking the exact same thing 😂🤣

omg, im a mammal too!

🤣🤣🤣

Holy crap, this animal is truly alien. Tbh before seeing a platypus side by side with a human I thought they were about the size you described their ancestors had

To add more details 1. Platypuses are pretty small, about 50 cm in lenght so three feet would be 2,5 times bigger. What's interesting is the fact that extant platypuses are toothless as adults and take stones to their beaks to crush their prey. 2. The issue with stomach is pretty complicated but they do appear to lack it.

Even more details (left out of the video too): 1. Platypus and Echidna species are the only mammals to have a single hole for mating and pooping/peeing (like most reptiles/birds/fish/amphibians) called a cloaca, which is partly where their name "monotreme" ("single-hole") comes from! 2. They have the lowest average body temperature of any mammal, putting them a bit closer to "cold-blooded" category than the rest of us (while still being "warm-blooded" mammals of course)! Truly, monotremes are a creationist's worst nightmare! lol PS: Correct me if I'm wrong, but since "platypus" is from Greek, "platypodes" is technically correct and "platypi" is technically incorrect (since that's the Latin plural form). Although at the end of the day, I like putting that old fashion anglo-saxon plural ending and be done with it "platypuses" :) PPS: On second thought, sorry for being "that guy" xD

@@caviramus0993 Ooo and another one! 3. They walk with a sprawling gait, which is more reptilian/ancestral! (Think of the way a Komodo dragon or lizard walks, verses a cat/dog)

thank you Rohit I enjoyed these facts

Its back feet are on backwards and it has a four headed penis, im scared

@@egziverpendlebury2431 getting the notification of this reply without any context whatsoever is also quite terrifying

Echidna look pretty adorable when they are swimming aswell!

@@egziverpendlebury2431 yea just based on that I’m not convinced it’s less weird than a platypus

2:30 how that even happen with the kangaroo

He vanquished the door-inator.

Platypuses have no patience for weird human contraptions. Just ask dr doof

Doof: Perry the platypus? Why do keep breaking down my door? Why don't you knock first? It's not even locked.

They glow blue under uv lights!

And most importantly Where’s the hat!?

Perry

I wonder how expensive this evolution was.

When a platypus burps, it's called the gas bill

@you did what on video? What? Are you high?

@you did what on video? the only victims are us after reading your comment

@you did what on video? no i just didnt understand wtf you were talking ab so i just busted that out lmao

"Yet" yeah because it's the matter of time right?

There isn't much use for it, except maybe as an exotic pet.

@@hungvu262 other than inspiring human machinations, nature is indeed useless

It is quite close to extinction due to poisoning rivers with sewerage run off, and massive corporate farms redirecting the rivers to supply themselves with water which dried up long stretches of rivers. And also the eroding of riverbanks due to dying flora that once lined rivers banks and stopped them washing away. The massive dam's also don't help at all since they rarely release enough water to allow several rivers to run freely. Also people setting freshwater crayfish nets across rivers which entangles the platypus and they end up drowning.

Let's hope that never happens we wont wont get a special animal like this any time soon

Amazing

Hilarious 🤣🤣🤣

And………. they don’t do much.

@@joyyu7753 yes!

Agree love the more odd n often (sadly) less popular species ...if you like intriguing and old animals have a look at the pangolin too. At 80 million years they really have been successful in their specialisation. No teeth, instead a long tongue and sticky saliva to catch the insects (termites, ants etc) they eat. Spiny shoots of ketatine inside their gut help to process their food. Some stand up on two, and can even walk bipedally a short distance. The tree pangolin uses its tail to hang in a tree while digging for food (kind of like those old cartoon depictions of opossums...only they don't do that). Sadly they're covered in scales, so they're now heavily trafficked. Because in some traditional medicine people still wrongfully believe that the keratine; same as rhino horn or our nails, will cure disease 🤨 😖. And the pangolin defence, which works well if a tiger attacks, is to roll up tight in a ball. The scales prevent them from being able to dig in, so they walk off after a while. But this does not protect them from greedy and thoughtless humans who can just pick them up. So despite being one of the least known they're one of the most trafficked😢. I've been trying to raise awareness and hopefully there's some light.. Sir David Attenborough has a campaign now, I really appreciate him continously using his platform to help...if you or someone you know wants to help: www.fauna-flora.org/appeals/pangolin-appeal-dig/#:~:text=Please%20help%20save%20pangolins.,are%20pulverised%20for%20mythical%20medicines.

Nice one (・o・)

Underrated comment. Edit: Still underrated.

😂😂😂😂😂

So true. Plus ducks live in better neighborhoods

What came first...the airplane or the bird? In our (earth) atmosphere, birds fly. In a different atmosphere, there may not be a need to fly the way they fly now. I think most people would say the bird came first. We noticed them and then became smart enough to make a plane that can cover distance in a similar way. The evolution word is more for physiological changes and adaptions, and not for what we call intelligence. Evolution took/takes a long time. The lightbulb 💡 that suddenly flickers on in our brain takes a second. Then you will notice or become more aware of the things around you, internally and externally. This process of getting to a desired point could take a long time like evolution, or take a few years as exemplified in the technology capsule...like a time capsule but of course we didn't travel anywhere. Thanks for sharing the analysis. The human anatomy should be of interest to us because we are the most functional beings in our world. All these stuff was not known until the 20th century. Like the fact that there exists trillions of tiny cells which are lifeforms in our bodies. The cells die and more are reproduced to replace the simple lifeform, its predecessors, until our system (our body) 'dies'.

Study break?! I'm doing the most learning! ☺

Totally agree I should be higher rated n some dated wildlife documentaries with stupid voice overs stating things like these monsters or blood thirsty beasts so on ...should be way down. Your stuff is informative and intelligent 👏❤

Because they produce it only during mating season

You might say that معاذ but to us in Australia it's all normal. As a kid in the dryer inland I watched an echidna bury itself in sandy soil for safety - they sink straight down - wonderful to watch but quite "normal" for us. رأيس
