Cutthroat Heresy so does my cat he eats tons of food finds a nice out of the way place then barfs it up to eat later also he bring live animals Into the house to eat later lol
The other day I threw some stale bread out for the crows that hang around my yard. One crow saw the pieces before the rest. He swooped down picked up several pieces and then hid them under some pine straw. Then he called out for the other crows attention to the remaining pieces of bread. Later in the day he recovered his hidden stash when the rest of the crows were gone. I know crows are smart, but this impressed me quite a bit. Even if it was selfish. (A crow's gotta do what a crow's gotta do)
Hey, SciShow, do you think you'd be able to create a video teaching about cerebral aneurysms? I had one rupture back when I was 19 and I think it would be great for more people to learn about them!
Thank you, Michael for turning into such a wonderful host! I had a hard time adjusting when you started hosting because you seemed to take so many mannerisms from Hank's delivery, but you have really found your distinct voice and made your episodes equal to and sometimes better than Hank's. Still love you Hank! But Michael has me charmed for science, too!
Squirrels farm up whole forests. They categorically bury more nuts/seeds into open areas than they will use, and this spreads their preferred habitat and food sources. Ants' farming and ranching techniques probably predate the rise of the mammals altogether, though. No way to date it for sure, but they've been thriving for like 90 million years. Humans seem to have started systematic agriculture less than 20 thousand years ago... so that's more than a 1000 to 1 time difference. Using tools & levers, constructed homes, agriculture, ranching, coordinated tactical combat/predation, transforming foods & minerals by chemistry, long-distance (even trans-oceanic) communications and symbolic speech, aesthetic artistic interpretation, social hierarchies, service industries, professional specialization, infrared & ultra-violet scanning, welfare states and subsidies, nets, networks, carbon-fiber constructions, armies, functional telepathy, utilizing the golden ratio and the Fibonacci series, even creating mass extinctions... all these things were done by other species long before humans came along, and some of their tricks still cannot be duplicated independently by science or technology. As for plants, most of the cool medicines (and materials) have always been derived from just going out into the wild to see what plants are up to for their own purposes; then copying or harnessing their brilliance for our own uses. Humans are idiots compared to the vast array of flowering plants when it comes to sorting out biochemical solutions to practical problems. The only significant things I can think of that humans have really paved the way more than other species are metallurgy, explosives, and stacking up piles of big rocks. Everything else we have been or done, another species got there first and we just copied it, for good or bad. We learn by observing Nature, which is the basic lesson and enterprise of all science after all :)

Thanks guys for always giving me reason to sit, mouth agape. staring at my computer screen uttering the words 'Nooo waay' over and over again. Oh....and thank you for making me just a smidge smarter too!
Leafcutter ants are pretty neat too. They grow mushrooms with the plant leaves they nibble off. They don't eat the leaves, they eat the mushrooms that they grow for food!
You can see mole worm collections when a mole habitat floods. Quite a sight. Find a spot with lots of molehills & go watch when there's a severe downpour.
Ah, yes. Lubbers. Those things are freaking special. They are also aggressive when they shed for the final time and become adults. Angry little buggers.
Ants are clever, too, because they have two stomachs: their normal stomach and social stomachs. The social stomach is what the ants use to store extra food and share to colony members who haven’t eaten yet. Some carpenter ant species have even been known to last for days without eating because of how long the ants’ social stomachs can last.
little did the worm know, that was a robin pecking at the ground mimicking the vibrations of a digging mole. all the robin had to do was peck at the ground and wait for the food to come to it.
mud daubers are another cool one, they sting spiders which paralyzes them then lay their larvae inside a mud cap with said paralyzed spiders which serve as food for the larvae
the more of these sorts of animals have this or that way of getting around some problem i read (or watch) the more i think that animals have far greater intelligence than they generally get credit for. we may not be significantly more intelligent than many other animals we just have a penchant for making tools and a couple of anatomy advantages (rotating shoulders and opposable thumbs)
We also have speech and social groups, which helps a lot. As for intelligence, it depends on what you’re measuring intelligence by. Is speech a sign of intelligence? Ability to survive? The ability to look at the world from another perspective?
This was interesting but i was disappointed that it didnt include leaf cutter ants fungus gardens.- They harvest enormous amounts of leaves which are given to other ants which chew (but not digest) and spit it out in a special chamber within the nest. This chamber is where the fungus grows and is used to feed the entire colony. But there is more to it than that, the ants are so sophisticated at nest building that they are able to carefully control the temperature and humidity for the fungus garden.
how would the earthworm instinct evolve? does this mean there were lots of earthworms reacting to lots of different things in lots of different ways (which leads to a multidimensional matrix of instincts) and only those with just the right combination survived? if this is true, do earthworms permanently evolve new instincts? if yes, can we see that happen? if not, how did the previous earth worms brute force through all possible instinct combinations to get the right one?
I thought that honeypot ants would be in this list. Feeding a certain caste of ants until they get almost spherically fat and having them vomit in your food hole when you need to eat is pretty creative. Also since insects make up most of the species any animal list should be expected to cover at least one of them unless insect are excluded for some reason
Lol... now i want to google image all of these little things in action. You guys should have had some visuals for shuriks, moles, shrews and pikas. There little homey things sound some interesting! I can understand (by understand i mean i have apathy/disinterest) the uselessness of some pictures, but better safe than not safe.
So like do the penguins know what they're doing when they store the food in their stomaches? Like is it a conscious process Or does their body subconsciously just already know to do it? How do they know when to do it/what tells their brain to kick this tactic into gear?
I have learned about the red squirrels in my province today. However, they're still beat out by the amount of shrooms consumed by New Brunswick humans.
good greif. if there were a creature we humans had evolved to fear the way worms do moles, every villain in any story ever would be made to look like it. ...assuming we hadn't hunted it to extinction the instant we figured out how to make a spear that is.
The more I learn about other animals the more I find that us humans were never really unique in our abilities. There's always a species that can do what we can, sometimes even better. Not only that, but it strangely seems like our idea that our intelligence is unique comes from our ignorance towards other species. Now that's some good irony.
I once saw this one red squirrel lugging around a massive fly agaric mushroom, don't know what happened to that fella later, but it must've been one bad trip. I mean the mushroom was atleast the size of the critter, it was quite comical. :EDIT: Apparently while googling about the topic of fly agarics and red squirrels, it doesn't seem to be toxic to them, so i guess he/she/it didn't die of it.

How do certain animals like Rams smash their heads into each other at high enough speeds to do damage to a human if we were to do it, yet ,seemingly, suffer no harmful effects from it, themselves?

Hey. Prolly not the best place to ask but hey whatevs. What are the animals with the most varied diet? Birds specifically. I tried looking it up but all of my search results are frustrating and I'm frustrated and ugh. K thx bye.
I hate when they say "animals are stupid", I absolutely don't think so. The other day I was watching in amazement this seagull stamping its feet to imitate rainfall and trick earthworms to come to the surface.
I was digging up my garden and uncovered a mole worm hole. It must have had about 500 worms in it, I ate well that night for sure

so there is a Farming worm? so does that mean the Ragworm first invented Farming and not humans?
Ants have been farming both fungi and lifestock for a long time.
Mike Kuppen I mean more or less like plants not fungus
