My thoughts exactly. At first, I was wondering why they don't just have a captive breeding program to save those fish from extinction. But then I saw the section of the video that shows that they do,in fact,have such a program.
Apparently, Devils Hole is also important because it can detect earthquakes from as far away as Japan, way before any tsunami or quakes reaches American shores. Whenever there's an earthquake, the water rapidly rises and falls (Probably deals with plate tectonics).
They should send a few thousand meters of camera line down through there and see what they see upon pulling it back in. Id imagine it’d be quiet interesting to see what’s beyond that point!!
In my state of new mexico by the valley of fire volcanic field, in a deep natural spring ponds , there are fishes that only live in those ponds and they are close relatives to the pup fish. They look very similar as well.
Daaaang I'm here too. Never visited the valley but want to go. I wouldn't doubt carlsbad and the blue hole as well as what you're talking about are all connected with this cave in the video
You know what, this is what makes America great. That Americans (most Americans, nevertheless) care for this tiny fish and its habitat. In any other country they'd have become extinct long back.
I wouldn’t dive in there. Too claustrophobic. But so amazing how much water is in there! You’d never think in such a place. Who discovered this place??
This is a little late but past 457ft, there is another hole the size of a bicycle wheel that leads to and underground ocean estimates to be over 2000miles long. In 2013 an earthquake in Mexico caused the water from far below the spring system to shoot out of the entrance to devils hole leading scientist to believe that the underground ocean may be continental in size.
Ops,...I commented too soon. It turns out that they do have a captive breeding program for those fish. I commented before that section of the video "came up".Well,...I'm glad they have that program to save that Species of fish from extinction.
Im amazed by how many people want the fish to go extinct. The people who want pupfish to die should be put on an island and be isolated for the next 5 - 10,000 years, just like the fish.
Scrotie McBoogerballs exactly, and they fact they already spent 4 f-ing million dollars to build a few fish an entirely separate habitat that they can thrive in must just irk the surrounding population even more.
@I'm a full-on the rapist. the whole state is on a drought and the colorado river is running low. California farmers and cattle ranchers are one of the most wasteful farmers in the world. They don't even contribute to half of the gdp. Fun fact: californian famers were the first welfare millionaires. It's not sustainable to farm in the middle of a desert unless you have a desaline system.
It's the panda bear of fish. Seemingly created to go extinct and only through intervention kept alive. They haven't even been able to discover how to keep it alive in captivity. Though they did find out when it was moved to a similar habitat that instead of breeding with others like itself, it bred with a different species of pupfish, creating a hybrid that was successful in its new home. Of course, making a hybrid was not exactly ideal since saving the pure species is the whole idea. It is a damn cute stubby little guy, and its electric deep blue color is gorgeous. I'd love to keep a tank full of them. Heck, I'd give them a 2000 gallon tank at 93 degrees regardless of expense, but thats highly unlikely to ever happen because it's so darn touchy. Then there is the mystery of its only home in Death Valley, the Devils Hole. A location which scientists now think may be connected to an underground ocean/cavern system stretching from South America all the way underground to the midwest of the USA. With depths exceeding 1000 feet, I can't imagine a more mysterious and frightening place. This might be the location where real-life mythological sea monsters dwell. There be monsters here. Supposedly at the bottom of the hole there is a small opening that at times becomes an underwater whirl pool with unreal suction ready to vaccum the unlucky that venture to close to the hole into an ocean no one has yet explored. Makes my heart beat hard just thinking about it. A real-life underground OCEAN... IMAGINE!
2024 update for anyone interested: the replica Devil’s Hole breeding project has had a lot of success. And the population of the original/natural Devil’s Hole has been on an upward trend as well. The population is still critically endangered, but there’s kind of a limit to how many pupfish can exist at one time with such a small and isolated habitat.
This is where Charles Manson thought he found the opening to the bottomless pit where he thought to be his family’s hideout for the race war he called Helter Skelter.
@@thegoat9237 It's just about impossible. The current strength, pressure, and temperature would destroy anything a civilian could create or purchase. And if the government does or has done it (maybe impossible even for them), the mission and results/mappings would be 100% confidential.
@@mystic95 hm I was thinking that the pressure couldn’t be more than a drone or anything could handle due to the fact that divers have been able to get down there.
@@thegoat9237 Almost all of them have a tether and go ~200m max. The hole is ~130m down and then could go possibly thousands of meters down. You'd need a very expensive black market/military grade one, and it still likely wouldn't do to job. I heard a diver let a weighted string down and it went over 900m/its max and didn't hit a bottom.
the price of a fish depends on a lot of factors and do to the life cycle if it it probably would not be that expensive because they are small and have a short lifespan in the hobby they would probably be about $5 each
so the hole has a fish that only lives there an they have never been to the bottom an 2 kids died an were never found but there gear was found. they could have been eaten by something that doesn't live any where else
So you think something ate the kids and is able to survive in there eating sporadically just once every, oh 60 years or so?? It would have to be big and would require a massive amount of calories daily to sustain its mass. There simply is not the ecosystem in there to have such an apex predator. Those pupfish are on their own and have just enough food (the algae on their small rock shelf in the sunlight) to sustain their small population. It's a microsystem in balance. Go checkout Ash Meadows just down the road. There you will find a few dozen other endemic plant and animal species found nowhere else on earth. The great inland sea that once was dried up (Salt Lake is all that's left) and species became trapped in little pockets all over the desert where they evolved to survive their unique environment.

Current, pressure, and temperature. You'd need something really fancy/expensive to maintain control and functionality at such a depth. Unsure if there even is anything small enough to fit that would survive.
They should be bred and sold to the public. Put them in lakes and stuff. You don't want them to go extinct? Neither do I so create incentive to keep them alive.
probably make an artificial camera equipped fish just as small and put it in the hole and get to know the devil's hole and whether it is actually a connection to the underwaters........
So nobody knows how deep the hole goes....they have a backup reserve fish farm. Why not turn death valley into farmland or something useful to humans while we are here? Some industrial grave pumps and a very large well or just pipes into the hole (take remaining fish out an add to the farm) and see if the land can be restored? Also probably find 2 bodies eventually an bring them home? It could lead to an underground lake that rain will naturally help keep filled? I'm not a farmer but I dont see why if they already made a fish farm...they couldnt transfer the fish from the real hole,to the farm an start pumping an see how much water is really down there. Could produce many jobs. Who knows what other discoveries are down there too.
Well you see, here’s the thing about efforts to protect one single species. It’s never just about that one species. Let’s look at monarch butterflies. Conservation efforts for monarchs don’t just help monarchs. The milkweed planted, the areas protected, it helps a wide variety of insects and small animals. The pupfish is important because as barren as it seems, Death Valley is an ecosystem with over 400 species of animal and 1,000 species of plant, and having a charismatic animal like the pupfish there to remind people of that helps keep them from paving over all of that.
Um... Devils Hole may be an entrance to Inner Earth..maybe that's the paradise Charles Manson was convinced of that lay "below the water". And to have water deep enough that divers have gone and bodies never returned is a sign to send underwater drones and cameras down to explore though, isn't it? We finally have the technology.
I read a study that said they were able to recreate the mutations in other pupfish that the devil's hole pupfish have by increasing the temperature and giving it a couple generations. If that's true then there wouldn't be any good reason to have those fences around that hole and more people could explore those caves and see how massive they truly are. Now THAT would be awesome!
@@derekschinke2512 Well that is the end goal of any conservationist to eradicate any if not all invasive species. So they spend millions of taxpayers money to recreate a habitat. Oh, they did not tell you about the lake right next to Devils Hole? Why not? They have expanded the pup fish’s habitat into the lake as well. So what is their real agenda? Their agenda is to control people through the endangered species act.
Hey, let's save this cute fishy fish. Which is a great idea. But, maybe they didn't need saving but just left alone? Put on all this rubber & plastic garb, go down with huge spotlights, flail around the fish's habitat, maybe stab some crap with these long poles, put some plastic tags all over everything... That should do it. Look we saved the, whoops. Sorry they're all dead. You bad people that aren't environmentalists, "like we are", killed these poor fish. Dang you! Poor fish from fish heaven... "We never saw that one coming"
Do you people feel something is off? Ok these fish are great! But why the millions to preserve these fish? We Flippin over harvest our oceans. Species go extinct every day. Yet we dump millions to preserve these fish? Yet we give squat to help people, who are suffering also. Would these fish be as concerned with our demise? Or would they just acquiesce to life without thought? Something isn't right about this whole deal. What would happen if the fish went extinct? Ever ask that question? Do they serve some ecological balance which threatens our existence? Or would maybe investing in our youth. Who might produce a noble prize winning scientist. Which would invent a concept that would save all life in danger of extinction. That guy who just loves those fishies is a bit too involved? No kids? No wife? If yes? Hmmm, how happy is that union? Since fish are reason he gets up in the morning. Good God we've devalued our humanity. We only have ourselves to blame. If something was to threaten humanity, how important are those fish? They wouldn't even know their own extinction. We would! Yet Do nothing! We have a very warped view of the universe, and our place in it.
It’s not just about the fish is the thing. Death Valley has over 400 species of animal. By declaring one off limits, you make it easier to protect the rest of them too. That’s how a lot of conservation works, actually.
damn good place for a secret underground lab of some sort ... for someones to do somethingzzz 🤔 1976 or mountain biking or hiking ( foot traffic only) 😐
They are surviving. They use the fish to control people via false information. Control the water; control the people. They conservationists have an agenda: Communism through projecting false claims about plants, fish and other endangered/threatened species. Just ask Harry Reid how he got all his millions! He put thousands of people out of work; then stole their land from them. Does Nature Conservancy ring a bell? It is pure genius to use plants, insects and any other endangered species to steal peoples land and livelihoods. Then turn around and profit from it.
If you have a multi million facility to keep the fish from going extinct, let the farmers have the water. It improves the economy without damaging the environment.
but if the farmers take the water it would ruin the environment the fish live in and who knows what kind of damage that would do to the cave system once it was no longer submerged
can we get some of those pupfish in the fish keeper community's so we can help preserve the species out side of Nevada they look like a really cool fish to have in the hobby i get that they are an endangered species and the laws don't exactly like that kind of stuff but maybe we could make acceptations and letting some well know fish breeders get a few so they can start breeding them to be able to spread them throw-out the community and then we could breed them exponentially and that way we would never have to worry about them going extinct because hobbyist all over the world would have breeding populations we could reintroduce into the wild if something happened
Dre Eason it was million not billion, still a stupid about of money. And after they built the separate habitat they should’ve opened the water up for the inhabitants of the land. Humans>30 Fish
When a fish is more important than a person we are either doing something in secret at devils hole and thats an excuse or people have no heart or common sense.
Really appreciate the efforts by people to preserve this
My thoughts exactly. At first, I was wondering why they don't just have a captive breeding program to save those fish from extinction. But then I saw the section of the video that shows that they do,in fact,have such a program.

The fish are absolutely a cover for what's really going on down there.
One should never trust the f**king fish. They are suspect,
I think that if people were to explore it, there would be some strange discoveries.
there were 2 divers whose bodies were never recovered.
yes maybe we can give the fish cam,era
They should send a few thousand meters of camera line down through there and see what they see upon pulling it back in. Id imagine it’d be quiet interesting to see what’s beyond that point!!
I’m really happy to see all the effort to keep them alive and florishing.
Many props to the folks who preserve the species!
This is so interesting to me and it plays into my small fish in small desert body of water habitat fantasy
There is an ocean underground that connects other parts of the world that’s really the thing about it

Which would invent a concept that would save all life in danger of extinction. That guy who just loves those fishies is a bit too involved? No kids? No wife? If yes? Hmmm, how happy is that union? Since fish are reason he gets up in the morning. Good God we've devalued our humanity. We only have ourselves to blame. If something was to threaten humanity, how important are those fish? They wouldn't even know their own extinction. We would! Yet Do nothing! We have a very warped view of the universe, and our place in it.
It’s not just about the fish is the thing. Death Valley has over 400 species of animal. By declaring one off limits, you make it easier to protect the rest of them too. That’s how a lot of conservation works, actually.
damn good place for a secret underground lab of some sort ... for someones to do somethingzzz 🤔 1976 or mountain biking or hiking ( foot traffic only) 😐
interesting. The more you know.
Whatever happened to survival of the fittest?!
Mark Volker .....Democrats
They are surviving. They use the fish to control people via false information. Control the water; control the people. They conservationists have an agenda: Communism through projecting false claims about plants, fish and other endangered/threatened species. Just ask Harry Reid how he got all his millions! He put thousands of people out of work; then stole their land from them. Does Nature Conservancy ring a bell? It is pure genius to use plants, insects and any other endangered species to steal peoples land and livelihoods. Then turn around and profit from it.
That no longer applies if you remove the animal's habitat or would you feel good without air?
why are conservatives so mad about a fish
mukhang Tilapia
When they where searching for the 2 bodies they went to the bottom and found a hole so the one guy don’t know his history
If you have a multi million facility to keep the fish from going extinct, let the farmers have the water. It improves the economy without damaging the environment.
but if the farmers take the water it would ruin the environment the fish live in and who knows what kind of damage that would do to the cave system once it was no longer submerged
love all animals but this times a thousand I can see why California or any states are broke
Beer and vomit lmao I remember when that happened
These fish will die because of man trying to save them.
I thought you might
I WANT SOME OF THOSE PUFF FISH!!!! 😋
its not a puff fish its a pupfish LOL
I wonder what species these fish were before becoming trapped in that hole ...
can we get some of those pupfish in the fish keeper community's so we can help preserve the species out side of Nevada they look like a really cool fish to have in the hobby
i get that they are an endangered species and the laws don't exactly like that kind of stuff but maybe we could make acceptations and letting some well know fish breeders get a few so they can start breeding them to be able to spread them throw-out the community and then we could breed them exponentially and that way we would never have to worry about them going extinct because hobbyist all over the world would have breeding populations we could reintroduce into the wild if something happened
Wow all that land fenced off for sum fukkn fish...
Not in God's eyes buddy, are you not worth many sparrows
So you think God wants abortion clinics on every corner? No he doesn't so it will always be republican
mmmm me parece que al Guardaparque le gusta que el Diablo le haga el Hoyo! XD
SPEAK MURICAN BOI
4.5 billion on 35 fish. When people are hungry everyday wow ... Fish fry anyone... I love animals but 4.5 billion.. #crookedgovernment
Dre Eason it was million not billion, still a stupid about of money. And after they built the separate habitat they should’ve opened the water up for the inhabitants of the land. Humans>30 Fish
When a fish is more important than a person we are either doing something in secret at devils hole and thats an excuse or people have no heart or common sense.
