That Ackie Monitor bite looked ROUGH. Emily was SUCH a trooper, oh my God...
I mean she literally got bit by a green tree python for a vid she is so brave XD
I'm just glad that it missed the vein running down the arm, so close!
@@FredbearTheDorito what vid is that? :)
@@Artbyissyhanna search for Snake Discovery, types of snake bites or smth like that
That was the most squirm-inducing thing I've seen in a long time.
Emily's casual, "Oh hi!" when Brayden walked in on her being eaten by a lizard was funnier than it should have been. Meanwhile him trying to catch cricket escapees while Ed continued to pry the lizard off with scissors, and a third person filmed it all was a pretty good summary of what it's probably like to run a zoo lol.
JuSt AnOtHeR DaY iN tHe OfFiCe, I gUeSs...
I feel they should get a veterinarian chuck for opening mouths XD
lol
IMAO

Emily cheerily informing us about the "naughty animal of the day" board whilst getting bit by an ackie monitor will never not be funny 😂
She should've dunked it in the turtle tank
Yes
Emily: You never know whats gonna happen here!
Kim: *Literally curling what looks to be doug*
I was hoping to see at least one comment
@@navystgfiance I know i was shocked when nobody talked about it so i had to be the one
@@Fox4life2597I know right!
I like to your video
@@siljelangeland6512 what
Emily is remarkably calm when a lizard has a death grip on her. I'd be swearing up a storm from the pain.
Oh I’m sure when he clamped down she was swearing. Lol
@@theRock-hh1gl lol I would to
It’s the fun of reptiles, you get used to being bit. So many times my bull snake would latch on my hand and I’d be like “aww, I’m not food you silly thing” and then later “wow, my hand kinda hurts, lol”
@@MEKCreations I guess it's like getting scratched by my cats, then. I shrug it off most of the time.
@@tuvelat7302 pretty much. Although I would wager an Ackie bite is way less fun than a bull snake.
Calling the monitor a jerk was the most "colorful" I've ever seen Emily's language towards one of their own animals. While he was doing his best interpretation of the jaws of life. Adorable.
I know, right?!
I'm pretty sure they call them much more inventive things off camera. They do have a snake named Foreskin after all 🤣
@@TheIamyourmother lol Im pretty sure it’s name is Scrotum
@@TheIamyourmother goddamn, I couldn't figure out the name in years, thank you! 😃
The only other thing I’ve heard was in an old video and still then it was blurted out Lol
I can't believe they demonetized this video over an ackie monitor bite! If anything, you deserve more money for handling it so well!!!
What? Really? That's ridiculous.
How can you tell it has been demonetized?
RUclips's demonetizing everything lately.
*AGREED.* Still! Imagine getting bit by an ackie monitor and filming it!
@@VermilionLotusthey mentioned it in another vid. It's partly why in some vids Emily has to cover her hands if she gets bit buy a snake. Yt didn't like the blood or smthn ig
The "Roach Roach your boat" got me laughing!
Me to every time i laugh a bit
I can see the sub-categories now. "That's Not Food," "You Don't Belong There," and "Staff Hijinks." For all the shenanigans, Snake Discovery looks like a great workplace.
Totally 🤣 Also, "Where in the World is Chloe Sandiego"
"Escape From Alcatraz" for the escapees and "Bitey Things"
@@9sheri9 "Terrapin Location"
...maybe they can put a gps tracker on them 🤷
@@9sheri9 i can hear the a capella now
Don’t forget animals and appliances being derpy. Like the vacuum.
Chloe is now my favorite. She is sneaky and a good diver 10/10.
I think she´s earned a larger enclosure.
@@mikekuppen6256 agreed and a more secure one…
@@kimdenny7978 Like the big pool Rex had pre-Facility, ideally with a dry spot since she seems to like it and a fence or something around or on top... Also, they could block access to the feed pallets.
With glass
I may have accidentally reported this post - I hope not. If I did, my sincerest apology - I was trying to edit my own post directly above, & clicked on the wrong three-dot thingie.......
I'm just a random drop in here, but I love that the snakes and the lizards, which aren't super fast and the turtle that's downright slow are so determined to have little adventures and find new hiding places. Love to hear some commentary about what inspires their wanderlust, how they feel in their time away, and why they pick the places they do to settle down again.
The way she always manages to make weird situations with animals positive and interesting is amazing. Emily: "You never know what could happen here!"
Also Emily: Proudly saying that the Monitor would be on the naughty animal of the day board for chomping on her arm.
That tricolor hognose trying to mate with himself was like a living art piece. 😂
I agree, it was also kinda funny/cute to watch.
If it doesn’t have a name Oroborus would probably fit😂 also he needs a lady friend!hope he gets one this year
I've seen it before with my doofus tricolor...His motion dug himself into a hole. 🤣
Like a snake chasing its tail. xD I second the Oroborus comment.
Gotta rename him Narcissus
I remember Rex's black pool was eventually going to go to Chloe. Sounds like moving into a bigger house might be just what she needs!
I agree. It seems like she's in a pretty small enclosure with not much enrichment. I'm sure they have plans of upgrading her eventually though.
Its great to know how to handle situations like that! The escapes, the skizzers idea, the behind the scenes laughter. Looking forward to a tunnel of snake vines much like the Dallas aquarium shark tank tunnel! You guys are doing awesome!
Glad they're continuing the series because I love these shenanigans
I love the chaos of the ackie monitor video! The lizard refusing to let go, the spilled crickets, it was hilarious. Hope your arm is all healed!
That’s gonna get you an OSHA visit 😂
Hijacking this comment since it's the most liked right now: but wouldn't submerging the monitors head under water make it want to let go? Like, they wouldn't let themselves drown, would they?
@@mikerich32 I just commented the same. Yes this is the trick I’ve used with lizards at the store I work at.
@@mikerich32 Probably would work, but I get the feeling Emily wouldn't want to risk hurting the ackie by getting water in its lungs.
@@Soph-xr4br Ah, good to hear that it's a useful tactic. I don't have lizards, only snakes, so I don't have any experience with lizards latching on hahah. However, one time one of my snakes latched onto herself while I was feeding her and she refused to let go. But once I put one drop of vinegar in her mouth she let go instantly, and still ate her meal a few minutes later!
The snake snuggled into the belt holster is the cutest thing ever, he’s so cozy!
@ lol!
Hi
7:32 The “no.. NOOOO-“ was deeply felt.
Okay I love the Shenanigans episode! Please keep doing them. Truth is any post from you guys is well received and loved by so many thanks for everything you do for the animals and us!
Yes!@!! They are the reall lovers of reptiles.
I'm sure you could fill this whole series with "Clips of Snakes Chomping Down On Things That Are Not Food" 😂
That needs to be a 'shorts' series. Add name, species, and a counter for how many times that one's been caught. 🤣
I’d click on that video so fast😂
Definitely
1:32 I see this a lot in rabbits as well, an intact male will go in tightly closed circles around himself thinking that his tail is a female. Sometimes they get a good bite on their back and it trips them up. The look of confusion when the female they have been chasing suddenly disappears is adorable.
Rabbit: noms booty x confusion as to no womans x
cloie was like dang it she got me again why is Emily so good at hide'n'seek
Toco is so cute with his mouth open on the bascing light stand
Basking*
I have on odd feeling Chloe is going to be a frequent character in these episodes... just a hunch.
also having a naughty reptile of the day board is the best idea ever!
I kind of want them to post on socials who the naughty reptile is each day!
I find it funny it's naughty reptile of the DAY and not WEEK, so we can see how often shenanigans happen
Yes best idea evarrrr
Yes more!!! You need a sign that says “X days since escape” on the naughty board.
Maybe you should make a video showing how secure the venomous snake enclosures are so that people aren’t worried about them escaping. I’m sure it’s perfect and inescapable but I could see how future zoo patrons may want to see that they have an extra secure enclosure. Just a thought.
I second the "how many days since escape" !!! 😄
I agree
They did show off how they’re even more secure in the Justin timber snake video :3 they screwed on the light screen, triple foamed anything that looked even a little loose, has a 5inch glass overlap to prevent people from sticking fingers in, as well as double locks that only Ed and Emily have access too :3. Chloe just loves escaping and is super sweet (she doesn’t snap really according to some of Emily’s past videos). Notice how Emily’s hand placement on her. If Chloe snapped easily, Emily would not be holding her there but as far from Chloe’s head as possible. This video was just so much fun to watch!
This is an excellent series, love to see the behind the scenes shenanigans.
Just rewatched this and I'm loving the "eff the government" energy of all these reptiles. Especially the snake at 10:39 trying to eat the snake hook, absolute rebel 🤘
OOF that bite! Love the shenanigans! I do hope Chloe gets an upgraded set-up soon. She's such an escape artist, and it's funny to watch - but I am hoping it doesn't become a never ending occurrence. For her safety and everyone's sanity, lol.
Funny you say that. I used to have a sign on our bathroom door when my daughter was a toddler that said to please keep the door closed at all times for “her safety and mom’s sanity” lol.
Dang!! Emily is a champ for chatting calmly to the camera while an ackie tried to eat her forearm. Also, can't wait to see more of the caiman lizard!
😂
Quote of the day: Roach Roach Roach your boat!
That was funny 😂 but your right about Chloe’s new hiding place
Hope there will be more of these, I think this could be my new favorite show 💚
The tricolor mating with itself was great. 😂 And yay for new tadpoles! That lizard bite looked really painful. Please keep the series up. Great to see how mich fun you all have!
Literally turned himself into Ouroboros.

I hope Emily is okay after the lizard bite! Ironically enough that’s how I started watching this channel back in 2019, it was the video where Emily shows how to get snakes to stop biting you. That’s the video that got me hooked. Yes I want to see more videos like this
The video that got me was her giving Rex a bath.
@@TiffARMY wow same
That bite was crazy bro
2:06
I am glad I am your hardest working employe (my name is Ava to) 😂
Emily being bit and still in education mode about lizards. This is why they are the best
As someone who has worked with animals a lot over the years, I can tell this is gonna be such a fun series. The behind the scenes antics at any type of animal care facility can get so funny
Chole the adventurer. She really gets around for someone so slow.
Please keep posting these videos! This is so fun y
Lmao I don't think it's escaping at this point 😂 more like Chloe's weekly walk
🤣🤣🤣🤣 FACTS
Her constitutional
OOOOOOH I ALREADY KNOW I'M GOING TO LOVE THIS SERIES!!!
I hope this continues on forever tbh
Me too

Ditto from Western Washington..

@@dilciardgz SAME!
2:34 That crocodilian on the right is like, "Lady, WHAT are you doing?"
Love this video! Such fun! I really needed a laugh tonight, thanks so much! Love your channel!❤
I think my heart stopped when you explained that if you put the ackie down on a flat surface, he would have started tearing your flesh off. Lizards are adorable but scary! Would really love to see more of this series, the staff all seem like so much fun and I'd love to get to know them better through clips like these :D
I love this series already. I don't know much on snapping turtles but seems like Chloe may need an escaped proof container, undersides of pallets can be dangerous loose sharp peices(found this out at work a few times)
Here's a weird idea in the meantime while you guys look at the possibility of an upgrade. You clearly don't intend on moving those pallets anytime soon. I know you had (and hopefully still have) some decent quality scrap wood in the greenhouse. Might be time to make some impromptu kick boards and block those pallets off, use screws instead of staples if you want to remove the kickboards and use a pallet jack again later
This is footage from back when they were still moving animals into the zoo. Chloe has her own big enclosure now (or at least that is what I have heard).
@@Ryodraco I thought she did, but I couldn't remember lol
@@Ryodraco Oh really? I don't live near where they are. So I didn't know Chole got a new enclosure
Chloe wants a new enclosure like Rex she feels left out.
The tri-color guy trying to mate w himself gets me every time lol
More!! Watched 1 and 2, can't get enough 😄
Thank you, for Finally identifying a behavior that has perplexed me for years. The Milk Snake moving in perfect sync with himself is something Corn Snake has done many times, usually when he comes out of his pseudo-hibernation in the middle of winter. I always thought he was just energetic after a shed or being inactive. I had no idea he was actually trying to breed with himself. I learned something today!
Milkies and Burms, brothers in stupidity
That's not a milk snake, it's a tricolor hognose snake! I would've thought it was obvious, based on the... well.... nose? Lol.
@@_veronica_r Fair, wasn't paying attention to the snake, just releveling in finally having an answer to a question about my own snake's behavior. No need to be nasty.
@@OrcDragon65
Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to come off as rude. Sorry if I did.
Funny, with they snake breeding with themself. At least, trying to
Watched this with my dad a while ago and he agreed that the monitor bite was worse than a snake bite then added "but in my experience the crocodilia family is the worse to get bit by." Its the in my experience line that gets me. This is a man who when I was 8 years old ran into the middle of the road to grab a 4 foot rat snake to show me and my little cousins. A valid conversation we have is if we should adopt a snake but we have deemed our house was too busy for them. But anyway I asked him how he knew what was worse and he said he had been bitten by a snake, a monitor, and a small alligator.
You and your dad seem cool
Can you tell me the story of the alligator? How big was it?
are you from Florida?
@@juliusroman8616it was small
Love Shenanigans!! Please keep them coming!
8:05 I think you need to take that lizard to AAA meetings - ackie alcoholics anonymous
Who knew I wasn't the only one using my snakes as free weights. Awesome.
Not many people are talking about the girl using the snake as a weight and thank god I found one I just didnt want to be alone with it
I do the same thing with my 10 month old. If I didn't, he'd quickly outpace how much I can pick up and sling around.
He's already 20 lbs. Add in carseat, diaper bag, and my own purse, and... 😭
The staff should be added more into the series. They all seem so interesting to experience.. of course if they're comfortable with it but I'd love to see them more for this series...
Also, since chloe keeps escaping, wouldn't it be nice to put a net mesh or something over her enclosure?
I thought they were going to upgrade her to Rex's old big pool, but then again, they are probably lacking room for something that big in their backroom area.
@@demonqueen881 I also think Rex's pool is too shallow for her
@@_.-._.-. on Rex’s birthday they got her a big pool to replace the kiddy pool and said Chloe would be using it once Rex was in the zoo. That pool is deeper and bigger than the one Chloe is in now
Where would be the fun in that? She likes to explore & hide. Doesn't hurt her a bit.
@@peanutbutter8744 I think they had to use it for something else I vaguely remember something along those lines in a previous video.
1:57 POV : you are Chloe 😂
You guys need to do more of these episodes, so funny!
This was so fun and I was laughing out loud at the snake trying to eat the leaf. I really hope you continue this series because the hijinks are such a serotonin boost (not so much Emily being lizard food but you know).
It's actually a good idea...especially for someone considering getting an exotic pet but never had one ,besides care and such ..it shows others issues someone might come across alot of RUclipsrs don't discuss ..please keep making these ♥️♥️
This was a fun video. I enjoyed seeing the lighter side of your day-to-day with the reptiles. I'm still catching up with the videos on your channel, so I haven't seen if this series has indeed continued. I hope so!
8:53 that casual “oh hi” just killed me I was not expecting that
I think Chloe needs a bigger enclosure with a lockable lid, could that be the reason she is always escaping?
This episode was awesome.
I agree
Oh yeah she 100% needs a bigger enclosure. I wish they had a nicer set up for her. I'm sure she'd be much happier and less prone to escaping.
That and maybe a cave and basking spot. I'm only mentioning the cave because the majority of the time they found her Under things.
@[ Toaster Strudel ] Thank you for reminding people of this. Too many people are ready to throw ya under the bus without even knowing the full story. 🧸👑
@[ Toaster Strudel ] It's been like a year now though, no?
In *desperate* need of another installment of this series!! The only reality TV I'd watch ❤️
excellent taste!!
I loved this so so much!
Emily and Ed are so patient with their animals ❤
I would LOVE for this to become a series! Just goes to show all the hiccups and mishaps that can happen that we don't normally get to see!
I enjoyed how Ed had no capacity to tak while trying to free Emily- like he wanted to laugh at the lost crickets; but knew how bad Emily was hurting and just wanted to get her free. True gentleman
Omg I love this please continue with these types of videos because I love them and I laughed so hard
I needed and am thankful for the laughs!
Does Chloe maybe need a bigger (possibly covered...) tub? Thanks for the awesome videos! Really enjoyed the Shenanigans!! :)
I thought they mentioned in another video a while back that they were going to give Rex's last tub she had at home to Chloe... maybe it is too big for the office area though?
Was thinking the same, maybe they could just add a dry nook onto her tub where she can hide? She's so brave and adventurous 💕
Or maybe move the board that looks to be a ramp?
Probably haven't had the time. They're crazy busy
Yeah, it was silly at 1st, but obviously Chloe isn't happy in her current enclosure, and it's honestly pretty small for her size; I'd want out, too. I'm really hoping they upgrade her soon, or pay someone to if they're too busy. I absolutely love this channel, but it is kinda sad to see Chloe in such a small enclosure. 😢
"That's not food."
Reptiles are two-year-olds, confirmed.
I'd love for there to be more episodes of this. Perhaps a monthly series?
yep exectly!
yes it would be so ffunny

Yessssssss
6:14 “roach roach roach your boat” got me dying
Coleo is so cute and ed is so funny on these vids I love shinanigians they are so funny and Chloe is so cute when she dives
I love this video and I desperately hope everyone else does too so we can watch more shenanigans!
I do have a suggestion. Maybe since Chloe loves exploring so much she should get an enclosure and enrichment upgrade? She a looking a little small for that enclosure recently
According to other replies that is quite an old video. She is in a enclosure built for the zoo now.
It was only temporary till the big turtle pond was put together
Ah! That’s good to hear then! I wasn’t aware, honestly.
@@itz_elioftw she's still in the small tub. they confirmed in a different comment.
I love these! The best sort of 'naughty' animals, where none of them actually get hurt and are otherwise taken care of
I love that!
The”everyone thinks their sexy” quote is my favorite part
They’re not their
Emily is adorable. Her calm and class under the worst circumstances... just one of the most charasmatic youtubers. Great show you guys put on.
This was so funny. I enjoyed learning about lizard’s bite versus snakes even though Emily was the target. I love seeing the shenanigans.
I love this series. I'd love for it to return! I loved when the tri color tried to breed with itself. Also your comments make it even funnier!
It also shows that nothing is perfect but it works out eventually!
Haven't been around here in a while. Forgot how much I loved you guys
I just love watching your shows
Im so impressed how you managed to stay so calm with a lizard digging into your skin!
The face told me it really, really had to hurt
I love these please continue. Also question I've had since Chloe's introduction to the facility......why no barrier if she keeps escaping?
i believe thats older footage with Chloe having her own enclosure now if i'm not mistaken
They commenter on another comment that things are in the works but they haven't announced anything for it yet.
I did enjoy it, that would be awesome to have more of these Em
I love blooper videos. Keep 'em coming!
Love the concept even if it's a hassle lol
The Oroburus trying to mate with himself has now a special place in my heart ❤️
Love the future tadpoles already!
This was so fun to watch! Emily is far more calm than I’d ever be with a lizard clamped on my arm
I know
I just love this with all the escapes.
the boa/burm curls at the beginning sent me!!! If i ever accomplish my dream of housing, rescuing and rehoming reptiles...that's gonna be my workout goal XD
Emily now has the cutest little extremely painful wound though, and I'm envious of her future tiny dinosaur bite scar.
This is GREAT!!! I love this format.
The intro reminds me of when I used to do squats with my 18lb cat 😂
Nice lol
we need more of these, this was so funny
Love seeing these "behind the scenes" clips
7:28 so glad to see this is an universal experience for anyone who interacts with animals regularly.
I can't tell you how many times I have had to pull non food objects out of the mouths of my reptiles
i cant tell you how many times i have had the "that is not food" conversation with animals and children
what about Lunar?
Props to Emily for educating us while being bitten by an Ackie
"Roach, Roach, Roach your boat"😂
1000% love this format... not super stoked about ya getting bit.. that looks like its gunna leave a mark Oooof.... Love ya'lls content.. Plz keep going!!!!
Hi Emily, Ed and SD crew! Would you guys ever be able to do a video on "weird, but benign" reptile behaviours?? If I ever saw my snake trying to mate with itself, I would immediately assume there is something neurologically wrong, and run to the vet. Maybe not a "weird, but benign" vid (as every behaviour relies on context and the animal itself), but possibly a video on some odd behaviours you have seen from your reptiles. Can be either common "odd" behaviours or random ones specific to an individual reptile. I think it would be helpful as A) these actions could be documenting patterns/ behaviours we have yet to learn about in certain species. and B) as a new reptile owner I am constantly overly worried about my pets health and wellbeing and maybe a behaviour new owners may interpret as odd or worrisome could be something that is most likely a harmless quirk! Maybe you could just add them into these vids!
I don't think trying to mate with itself is indicative of a neurological issue (plus, if it was, Emily probably would have said) I think it's just because snakes are pretty stupid. My snake once latched onto a pair of tweezer tongs for 2 hours trying to eat them lol
@@lemolea9571 that's what they're saying - they would've initially panicked over that behaviour however clearly its not a big deal and are there any other things that might seem concerning that actually reptiles do commonly. The hognose twitch is one I can think of, although if you're getting as far as putting two hognoses together and don't know about the twitch then maybe you shouldn't be putting the two hognoses together. But there must be a fair few examples
I loved this! The part that actually get me laughing out loud was when Emily said, " Oh your a jerk." 😂
The new gameshow: "Fit inside Snake
Discovery lockers!"
1:40 “ everybody thinks they’re sexy right?” 😂 sometimes I just can’t with the things that Ed says😂
