Fun fact about cats and their purring: they'll often purr for themselves when they aren't feeling well, as it can help soothe aches and pains. Because of that, if they can tell you're upset, they'll purr on you as well. It's why so many people with depression share the experience of having their cat just... curl up on them and purr while they're sad. They're trying to heal you!
Oh my heart ♥
And now I’m even more of a cat person than I was before
Oh man, our orange kitty named Flame just finally died but not before becoming a legend around these parts. He just always spread "the love" wherever it was needed most. Countless disaffected and depressed teenagers became transformed upon encountering Flame. From the moment we picked him up from the high kill shelter (which he was nearly timed out at), he exuded an enduring sense of "gratitude" from the moment he came into our house. He took long walks with us, and loved, loved, loved EVERYONE that came in contact with him.
He was fearless. Our new dog would run full speed at him, charging in the most aggressive way, and Flamey would sit unaffected and perfectly still as Doggy stopped abruptly an inch in front of him.
He lived a full 17 yrs with a chronic lung infection which we tried to manage. He weighed half of what he did in his prime, but gave full love till the very end. He died naturally in my son's room one night after we pampered him the day before. It was expected.
Never missed a cat like I do Flame. Some creatures are exceptional.
Fact: a cat's purr against your neck is the best sleep-aid ever lucked upon. Also, the room is quiet and peaceful because there are no insects or rodents anywhere near that bed.
This literally warmed my heart, that is so cute.
Not only did humans hunt the same prey as wolves, but we also used similar hunting strategies. We both were persistence hunters that hunted in packs.
and then us and wolves were like "oh w8 we use the same strat might as well make the packs bigger"
Yeah its wild how the red states are trying to eliminate them. All those years of friendship lost to bloodthirsty ignorance

Agreed. What makes nature special is that for every scary and depraved sight, there's also a beautiful and heartwarming moment to witness.

honestly manatees probally just taste terrible so the alligators leave them alone
As a Floridian the manatee is also #1 on my list by default
@@thestarseeker8196 as another Floridan, this is accurate to me as well
One time I had a (thankfully) very rare but very heated disagreement with my other half, stormed into the woods and sat on the ground to have a good cry in private.
Then I had the strange feeling I was not alone, looked up to my left, and on the tree stump next to me was a red squirrel staring at me very intently.
It sounds strange, but I felt that it 'knew' I was upset and that I needed a bit of company for a while. Amazed to be so trusted by this normally very shy creature, I quickly dried my tears and we sat for a few minutes just looking at each other. Then, when my breathing finally steadied, it hopped lightly away, in no hurry, but obviously it had work to do.
An amazing experience with an animal I can normally not get within 20ft at the closest.
Same exact thing happened to me with a turtle ❤
@@ppfraBro turtles can't run☠️
@@gianscavone6354 they can swim tho, i was near a lake
@@gianscavone6354 a good number of aquatic turtles can actually run very quickly seeing as they have unstable gaits, tortoises are rather slow because of how big they are and because they have a very slow metabolism
Yknow what, I was surprised when I got to my university and the squirrels would literally walk past you like you were nothing. It’s a beautiful place too.
The fact you added pangolins onto this list really solidified that you are one of my favorite youtubers. Pangolins are severely underrated and I wish more people knew about them.
agreed
They are beyond adorable ❤
I just learned about them from finding this video. They look awesome
They are my favourite animal. I wrote an essay in my free time about them. I wished they lived in Australia :((
"Animals arent good or evil ,they're just them." Very true and powerful words. Animals serve a purpose . Thats what I love about this channel . Respect to nature is so important .
Animals do not serve a purpose, they act out functions of chemistry and entropy. They deserve our respect because they are just much a part of this world as we are and yet they are not fucking it up with their greed. Animals are a beneficial part of this world while far too many of us are very much like a cancer.
they dont really 'serve a purpose', they simply evolved with time and natural selection let them prosper, its like a super improvised card tower, without any calculations or plannings but that still stands, and when you take a card away (a species goes extinct), the entire tower collapses
Except for geese. fuck geese.
The rest of the animal kingdom doesn’t have existential crises nor make up lies about themselves because they can handle their own existence without going nuclear. Only humans do their best to make others miserable for wealth and power.
The atheists have arrived I see 🙄
Manatees being called "Sea squishy" is honestly one of the cutest things in this vid 😆🙌 I thank you for this
This has now become the official term for a manatee, by decree of awesome.
@@karmacheese Why, are you from Manateesota or something? x'D sorry.
I was thinking the same thing😆😆
Honk honk = nose sound when scrunch
I was about to make this comment but I saw that someone already did and it's super well received-- glad we all loved that so much!
The cat segment had me in tears.
The fact that those cats protected their owners the way they did is genuinely beautiful ❤
Love cats so much.
The video recommendation I have right below this is one of those stories,btw
When I would have disassociative episodes in the bathroom as a teen, one of the family cats, Taffy, would meow, and if that didn't work, she'd put her paw under the door to try to get me to snap out of it. When I would finally open the door, she'd meow and try to direct me until I went to my room and lied down on my bed. After we moved homes, she'd wake me up in the morning, stay with me while I got ready, and then sit with me while I had breakfast. She had already had food - I wasn't the one who fed her. She also would spend nights with me, lying down next to me while I play games, and when I turned off the lights, lie down next to me for a short while. After some snuggling, she'd sit on the corner of the bed and stare at my cracked bedroom door, keeping watch. Sometimes for over an hour, before finally leaving to do whatever she did while I slept. I grew up with both cats and dogs and I can tell you, both love their humans. Cats are just more subtle, I think.
As for my bias, sheep. Sheep are snuggly, get lonely easy, recognize their favorite human's faces, and are bouncy bundles of fun who love to play.
A fun fact about cats is that their purring stimulates healing of physical injuries. Presumably this was meant to help themselves heal, or maybe other cats, but it works on humans too.
Despite their reputation, they literally have a built in help friends ability.
Dogs are also great, but their help comes from them being gross. Children of mothers who spent most of their pregnancy near dogs are 30% less likely to have alergies than children of mothers who didn't live with dogs while pregnant.
And both are great emotional support companions, living in close proximity to humans necessitates that much. Dogs just tend to be more transparent about it.
I love sheep too! They’re not very intelligent, bless their hearts, but so sweet. ❤
As someone who’s been around manatees my whole life, I am so happy they got the top spot. They really deserve it.
yes they are adrorible
I’m so jealous you can interact with them ❤️🙌🏿
does the sea cow description also apply to taste?
Can someone tell me the background music playing during the seahorse section? Please...
They definitely deserve it, but my question is How? How has this blubber baby survived?
the fact this man is able to keep a straight face while either making everyone smile or causing children to lose sleep is amazing
Well part of it are the amount of takes he has in his videos. Evedienced by the massive amount of cuts in his videos.

My dog Samsung (we called him baby) had a cat best friend (our cat ABY (A-B)) loved eachother lol. So when aby had kittens baby would climb all the way up the steps just to go see them. He was a sixteen yr old chunky old boned dog who could barely walk. But he loved kids and babies so much he didn’t care. He went to go see them anyways. Never seen him so happy and energetic. He’s been gone two years now but it’s like he’s still here. Our dogs will leave a space for him all of the time and play with the “air” about his size. My cats aby and Yolko are sad that he’s gone so we gave them his blanket, the cats drag it to me when I’m crying because they know it will cheer me up. God I love animals 😭
❤that is so wholesome!💜
Is he really there though...
Now, i am deeply sorry for the loss
But samsung as a dog name is fucking wild 👌 died a GOAT honestly
I love manatees. I live less than 10 minutes from a spring they migrate to every winter to breed and keep warm. You are correct they are to polite for their own good. But watching how they all work together to protect their young is an amazing thing to see. It's not aggressive in any way. They all circle the calf and it looks almost like they are dancing. I recommend you see it in person one day. It will change your life.
I swam with them when i was 15 in the Crystal River! Coolest experience of my life
That sounds so awesome! Pixie, I’m sure you know how lucky you are, I’ve never even _seen_ a manatee not even in a zoo, as I live in the UK.
@@JulieWallis1963 They don't have any in the United Kingdom? Didn't know that.
You live near the old nuclear plant? They come up there to get away from the coldness, well as cold as it may get here in Florida. I have gone snorkeling and scuba diving with them and the worst you may encounter is a "Dugong Hug". That, in itself, is fantastic!
**Yes, I know dugong are NOT manatees. They are related, but NOT the same animals. We always just called it a "Dugong Hug", because it sounds cooler 😎 .
@@christyricker8736 yes I do live near a old nuclear plant. I use to love free diving with them when I was younger.
Did you hear about the mother delivering twin calves this year? Other than the place being packed it was an amazing thing to see.
You opened my eyes on how important bats are to this world, I really didn't know they contributed so much.
Most of them carry rabies so pet them on your own risk
@@youtubestudiosucks978 Or... just don't mess with 'em
@@juanx3019 if only a certain country that spawned the beer-virus didnt eat them on the regular...
@@hello7o7 Not all of them, but some are more important than others. Case in point, humans are useless af. We're only good at being a destroyer of worlds to other animals.
You'd be surprised how many animals fit that descrption. Bees, bats, birds, sharks, wolffish, bears, ants, etc. In terms of plants, trees are actually way more useful than people might think. They're not just a good CO2 sponge, their roots also help keep the terrain together and prevent landslides. Kinda like the nature's version of reinforced concrete where the roots in the ground act as the reinforcers like the steel bars in concrete. Take the trees away and suddenly the ground is much more at risk of flooding, sliding, sinking, etc.
Fun Fact: when I was a little kid, I was snorkeling with manatees in Florida and we were told not to touch them but I was snorkeling and one came up underneath me and lifted me out of the water and I started crying. The adults there had to put me back on the boat so I could calm down.
It might have been worried that you were drowning. There’s lots of stories of Whales doing the same.
Dude, I just read that and this story made me emotional, imagine being there, wholesome AF
Bro tried to help you because it thought you were drowning and you just started crying ☠️☠️☠️☠️
Thanks for sharing your story Cum Master69
You blew it!
My cat passed away about 6 months ago, give or take. His favorite pastime was terrorizing house spiders. He wouldn't even eat them he'd just chase them around and make their lives miserable just because he could. Aside from that, I think his biggest crime was probably that he would wake me up by jumping on my bladder.
I call it the springboard. They have had 10k years to find our buttons, abs they LOVE to make us do stuff.
Yeah it's really sad
I Lost my 3yr old cat 🐈 🥺🥺too
buh mine his adorable and also annoying he doesn't eat rather he chooses wat he wants like some rich brat
He regular eats Spider 🕷️ cockroach and can't really eat lizard 🦎 and rats 🐀😅
That sucks. Hope you’re doing ok
Prob bc he ate all em spiders got to him....The death bringer finally catched up to those monstrous felines
Haha, my late cat also loved hunting spiders! He would chase down insects too and bop the flying ones around like a hackey sack, until a bee stung him. 😅 RIP to your cat and I hope you’re doing well!
I’ve never heard a manatee being called a sea squishy before, that’s adorable
"They look like the embodiment of 'excuse me, I don't wanna bother you'" sent me 😆 Love this list, love all your vids!

@@levimorales9053 OK and
Added fact about the Bat. In German they are called Fledermaus. Which literally translates into English as Flutter Mouse. How is that not cute AF
Awwww
Even better: have you ever seen the Zergfledermaus? E. Dwarv Futter Mouse?
Die Fledermaus?
@@pcharl01 great operetta
same fior dutch as vleermuis
I personally would consider putting crows on a list like this but I too am biased lol. Iirc they mate for life and have strong family bonds, and the stories of them helping humans they like and bringing them treasures are really cute
Also elephants! They bury their dead and grieve them, they help literally any animal they see (pulling a human it thinks is drowning out of a river, refusing to drop a log in the spot the owners indicated because there was a dog there, covering a human in leaves either to protect them or because it thought they were dead, etc)
Crows also developed a similar social structure to humans, where they ostracize crows who steal and kill others and even mourn over the death of loved ones.
Crows are absolutely my favorite bird, and them being an occasional menace brings em high on my list
I literally loved birds. Even the crazy motherfuckers I'm just like "but he's so cute though 🥺" as a bird mauls a small rodent.
Apparently corvids domesticated wolves before we did, and were likely the reason we could. Why have we never formed the same bonds with them that we have with dogs?
Inhale* they also have in common with adhd people via ooohhhhh shiny
Bats where killed off by a virus where I lived and it became impossible to spend time out side. I couldn't walk to the car with out getting bitten by mosquitoes it was awful. Also the spiders started getting bigger and bigger good for spiders bad for people scared of spiders like my husband.
Surprised that your government didn't take notice and attempt to re-introduce bats to the area
The only place I can think of is Australia..
This was in the Eastern Panhandle of WV, USA
The "White Nose Virus"? The bat population has declined throughout the United States. Mosquitoes were always plentiful, but are utter hell now in the Southern US.
@karensutherland9142 Is the local government doing something to help? God I hope you guys get your bats back
I've said this before, but I feel like my favorite off-brand cat, the opossum, is an honorable mention. They eat lots of pests, help keep streets and such clean by eating dead animals, and are rabies-resistant. Nature really gave North America this introverted garbage disposal and not enough people are appreciating them.
Possums are very cool animals. We had quite a few when I lived in the country. Unfortunately they only live around 2 years
I agree. Opposums are just little trash-cats that vibe.
I relate to those little gremlins SO HARD, I love the little Dollar Store Cats 💖
Agreed…one of my favorites since childhood.
I love you for saying this. They are 100% underappreciated, lovable, intelligent, and they eat mice and ticks. They are awesome ♡♡♡
Another animal that I find wholesome: humpback whale. These absolute giants are very friendly, and have documented cases of hiding seals under their fins while orcas are trying to eat the seal. One case showed a humpback trying to get a diver to the surface after spotting a 15 foot tiger shark. There really is no reason for them to do this, so it could just be how kind they are. Hope y’all enjoyed the wholesomeness (:
Watch his first video of 2022 (search *if you haven’t smiled yet today); he talks about how awesome humpbacks are
@@Tonyhouse1168 Thanks for telling me! I’ll be watching it.
Wow. They are truly giant heroes
The Maui Acquarium is running a 3D dome theater movie on humpbacks. It feels like you’re swimming with them and could just touch their tails. Awe-inspiring. They’re such beautiful giants.
@@raevandyer9422 CUTEEE
I love that the marital faithfulness of these creatures is one of the things that you believe makes them wholesome. It says a lot about you.
There's something hilarious yet oddly heartwarming about Casual's mom sacrificing sleep just to support her son.
Cats actually domesticated themselves twice! Once in Africa, and once in Asia. There are actually ancient scrolls written by Chinese scholars talking about their pet cats. Just goes to show how smart cats are to have charmed their way into everyone's hearts and homes.
Don't forget Egypt!

@@realitymatters4745wild kratts told me that was a bad idea
Hope the man got medical help. His eyes look very badly jaundiced.
headsome
@@jebbsredemptionFortunately they aren't - some African natives simply have a bit of pigment in the white if their eyes. It's an adaptation to scorching sun that allows less refraction and therefore better sight in bright conditions. It's most often lost in African-Americans and we don't really know why, perhaps it's an epigenetic response. Jaundice would be more yellow.
I love that you called manatees “sea squishy” 😂 ❤
I moved to the countryside from the city. The area I moved to has apparently the greatest concentration of greater and lesser horseshoe bats and pipistrelle in the south west of the UK.
The local term for them is "Flitter mouse"
There is a place in the local park (for local people....... "Are you local?") where you can stand beside the river and watch them flying along the path beside the river for 20 metres or so, and they will get within a couple of feet away from you before vearing off to the side. It is truly an amazing spectacle
When I was a kid my family spent 2 weeks on a houseboat with my dad's sister's family and our grandparents on Lake Shasta.
The mosquitoes were terrible until one night when, just as the sun went down and the mosquitoes started in on us (no matter how much DEET you used, the mosquitoes came) a huge number of bats showed up and were zipping around for about half an hour.
Once the bats were gone so were the mosquitos.
Ever since then, I have loved bats.
Where I live (southeast Alberta), the local parks with wildlife interpretive centers sell "bat boxes" that are much like birdhouses in looks and function. You can get a kit to assemble the bat box with all the necessary pieces, or a pre-built "apartment", ready to take in the bat fams once it's in place.
Sayonara, skeeters. The bats are wise to your whiny-buzzy, puncturary, blood-engorgingly, bitey, itchy, illness-spready tricks. You're their twilight Bat-Snacks.
I find that eating a lot of garlic keeps the bloodsuckers off.
The only animal I hate is the mosquito! I try to reason with them with no luck at all.
Dang they turned up to the bat Golden Corral and got down!
@@camerakitty8167 it keeps everyone else away, too :P
I've heard a story where a man had his house broken into.
The burglar locked the homeowner's dog in a closet and kicked his cat across the room.
Well the cat wasn't gonna take this lying down, so he went and opened to closet, letting the dog out. The dog then chased the burglar, who climbed on top of a bookcase, dropping his gun.
The cat was salty
+ respect
the cat and dog are an iconic duo
Talk about an unstoppable duo!
And then animals ate the man alive
I’m glad to see some love shown to bats, when I was a kid I was in an all boys group home and there was a bat stuck between plexiglass and the window pane, with the help of one of the staff members I was able to save him and he would visit me every now and then
Bats have a certain reputation for virus spreading, although rabies is the most famous one of concern.
But other than that they are a very important species as either pollinators or pest control.
Visually they have 3 main forms:
Flying doggos (adorable fruit bats)
Fluff balls
Nosferatu
The later two mainly are insect eating varieties.
And the virus thing is because they fly. Flying takes a lot of energy so they need a lot of oxygen which causes a lot of oxidative stress and their immune systems are good at managing/ignoring that. The damage from oxidative stress is very similar to the damage from viruses, so they can be infected and infectious without becoming sick, turning them into a reservoir species thats problematic for us. (Their insect eating services far outweigh this risk to us)
I’ve never met a manatee but, once cliff dived into the ocean and had a trio of dugong come to say hello as I was swimming to shore. They were so large compared to myself and I was young to know what I was swimming with (I was an inland Aussie and had no idea). The world felt bigger and better for that swim.
So, I know this is 2 weeks old now, but I've a story about Manatees. I grew up on the Suwannee River in Florida. Manatees were regular swimming partners for me and my sister. I dunno how much awareness the floating potato had about it's actions, but my sister had been swept into a faster current and was struggling to get back to the safer area. Just as I was beginning to swim out to try and help her, a Manatee booped her on the backside and shoved her close enough to get out of the stronger current. We pulled up grass from the bank and gave it to the gentle creature. One of the most wholesome animals I've ever encountered in the wild. I hope it's had a long and happy life.
😊
As I Christian I just imagined god himself intervening in that moment cause I can imagine him just being a Manatee and doing that but that's just probably me
@@theenderdestruction2362 My sister is a Christian as well, and the rare times I've heard her describe the story, she's said she felt it was sent by God, so it isn't just you.
@@Xavier_Destalis god works in mysterious ways until he wish to be upfront then he's basically a tungsten bomb dropping from orbit
So when bears attack people that is god’s way of saying ”Fuck you bitch”?
Best one ever! Manatees do deserve the top spot. As newbies from Ohio to Florida in the 60s, our first encounter with a Manatee was hilarious. Standing on a dock on the river fishing, a huge "Monster" popped it's face out of the water and snorted at us. We were so scared we dropped our poles in the water and ran away, screaming. LOL!!
I couldn't agree more.
Aw! It was just saying hi!
That's so funny I love it.
HUMANS ARE DUMB EVIL ANIMALS
ANIMALLS ARE GOOD

To be technical, Male Seahorses don't actually get pregnant, they just carry the eggs in a pouch, like a Kangaroo does for it's young.
The fact the he referred to a manatee as a “sea squishy” will forever be stuck in my brain space… 😂
Just realised cats formed a kind of symbiotic relationship with early humans because they adapted to be around us instead of us changing them. Kinda crazy to think about
They basically trained us and I think, that would track with the personal experience of many owners. Esp. all from all the adoption stories, that started with: "this isnt my cat/I dont own a cat".
😂
Humans forcing dogs to become either better hunters or utter biological defects/monstrosities. Meanwhile cats be like "okay, lets just not change anything except a few things. and lets help these humans every now and then".
It's absolutely true that cats were not domesticated like other animals. They just made a pact with us. You kill the mice in my grain and I'll leave you out a saucer of milk. Anything beyond that is firmly controlled by the cat.
It's refreshing to have someone say nice things about cats and not just "haha cat be evil" for once. I love cats and dogs equally and it breaks my heart to see the bad rep cats get for having more boundaries than dogs.
Yeah. People vilify them just because they don't show their love like dogs, cats usually just like to chill and have personal space, for example my cat loves to just chill in the same room with me and just leaves or comes back whenever he wants
@@bigdoggo5827 Same. Mine is rarely cuddly but she always wants to be in the same room as me
You did see why they weren't higher on the list right... look cats are cool but they are little killers and decimate local wildlife, I've had many presents from Tilly(my cat) because cats go where tf they want and have practically no bounderies. I see way more cats running about than dogs, where I am from dogs should be leashed and in locked yards usually tied up.
@@brianmcgarry1632 I understand why they're not higher, but the killing half of the local fauna is kinda on the owner
@@bigdoggo5827 The key word be usually because while one of my cats likes her space, my male cat is clingier than my dog oml
I'm so happy you included the albatross on this list. It's easily at the top of my list of favorite animals after I watched a documentary about their plight due to plastics in the ocean.
I watch Cornell's live camera of Royal albatross from Taiora? New Zealand. They fly in from Chili to lay their eggs or find a mate for first time and lay an egg. Then from Jan to Oct I watch them. They are astonishing to watch. Lady Hawk (human) provides videos and wonderful commentary of great moments during their time on the island.
Respect to this man for having these great birds on the list
I lived in Key largo Florida for 5 years.
I used to feed Manatees lettuce. I also used to scrub them with a brush and feed them fresh water from a hose, they love it!❤
Manatees are my favorite Animal!! 😊😊
Poor rats always get slighted :( They're teeny little darlings.
A few years ago, I think I lost a rat to depression borne of grief - or at least it very much looked that way. I had two rats, Leroy and Snitch, Leroy was kind of a runt, probably half Snitch's size. They were adorable together. Always slept snuggled up together, groomed each other, y'know, rat stuff;. Hell, if one of the cats got too close to their cage, Snitch would huddle over Leroy. I woke up one morning, and Leroy had died overnight. Snitch was sitting on his haunches next to him, and occasionally nosing his side, or neck, like he was trying to wake him up. Was kinda heartbreaking.
After that, he just basically stopped eating. He'd just curl up in their bedding spot and rarely get up. He'd fight me if I tried to pick him up which he'd never done before - used to love hanging out on my shoulders or in the hood of my hoodie. Only took a few days before he was gone, too.
Sorry for the novella, but I miss those guys.
Rats are one of the most social animals, and in mischiefs (and their groups are called mischiefs, I don't know how you could get cuter than that), rats will actively care for the sick, elderly, and disabled members, including feeding and grooming and socialising. Rats are incredible animals, and so cute, and don't deserve the reputation they have. They spend almost as much time cleaning themselves as cats do! And also their eyes visibly vibrate when they're happy and they hold their food with their little hands they're *so cute*
@@starlightlion8603 This kind of makes me want to get one. Are they a lot of work? And do they get very stinky?
@@chipmunkwarcry They don't get too stinky as long as you clean their cage regularly (once a week is usually good unless they get something particularly messy), but if you're worried about that I highly recommend getting females instead of males. They smell noticeably less. Also, since they are social animals, it's best to get two or three instead of just one; I had mine in pairs and they seemed happy enough, granted I was a kid and played with them a lot as well.
As for work, they're fairly low-maintenance compared to, say, a dog or an indoor cat, but they need plenty of enrichment because they get bored easily. You also have to provide them with things to chew and make sure to be careful about what materials you use. (I can't remember if you need to be wary of treated pine wood or untreated pine wood, it's been a while since I had rats, but it's very much worth looking into that sort of stuff and rat allergens and whatnot). Overall though, they don't need more work than having any kind of pet takes, and less than many exotic or fragile pets. They're pretty hardy little things too. Oh! And be careful how many sunflower seeds you give them XD Little bastards love them but they're very high in fat.
Final note, this is still a RUclips comments section and I'm not a vet or a rat expert, so it's definitely worth doing more research into rat ownership, but in my experience they're lovely pets
@@chipmunkwarcry In my opinion, the worst thing about rats is their short lifespans. 2 years is old. They're smart, they're cute, they're sociable, they're fun to play with and even just to watch, but prepare to have your heart broken just as you start to get used to them. But do your research, and all that. Every pet has pros and cons. Who knows, maybe rats would be a perfect match for you.
@@starlightlion8603 Thanks so much! :D I like the idea of having pets, but I’ve realized I don’t have the energy (or space) to keep up with a cat or dog. So I’ve been looking into other smaller animal friends. Domesticated rats are adorable, even though their wild brethren have a bad rap
"Flamingos believe in monogamy the way that Nick Cannon believes in birth control"
His deadpan delivery of these one-liners is magnificent
I used to have a black lab that would come to me and put his paw on me when I was sad.
His name was Geoffrey.
I miss him so, so much...
It seems like the chiller the animal is, the more other animals won't care (except if they're hungry)
I'd also like to add my own personal bias: the American Black Vulture!
When most people think "vulture", they picture a buzzard (which aren't even vultures, technically), but this bird has one rad aesthetic. However, despite their dramatically goth appearance, the Black Vulture is a pack animal - and this leads to them exhibiting some very endearing, dog-like behaviors.
I use to volunteer at a wildlife rescue center, and they had an "education" black vulture (one that could not be released due to medical problems, so was trained to be comfortable working with people); he enjoyed playing tug-of-war, snuggling, climbing up on people and riding around on their shoulders, and other social activities. I had to stop volunteering because of the pandemic, but I was able to see him again at a small education event. He actually seemed to remember me, even years later! He had apparently been cranky all morning, but as soon as I approached him he acted a lot less agitated. It made my day~
Black Vultures are cool, okay? They'll definitely go for your eyes instinctively given the chance, no doubt. But like... Playing fetch with a vulture and having him snuggle against your chest like a baby while you try to clean something can go a long way to making you see how cute and playful these guys are capable of being 🥺
Oh my god, once we got to meet this group of people who took care of birds that couldn't live in the wild, and alongside a 1-winged bald eagle and some other neat birds, they had a black vulture. The goofiest bird I've ever seen! Just kinda ran around and headbutting people!
My god I love American Black Vultures 🥰 I've never heard anyone else say they are 🤌🏼
I walked up on one by mistake in my neighbors back yard. He was eating sauerkraut 😂
That bird was over 3 feet tall! I was terrified and delighted. The vulture kept eating and I quickly left.
Wellll...... they've got their crappy side too though. They don't have nearly the keen sense of smell that turkey vultures have, so they often get their meals by watching turkey vultures and then bullying them away from whatever they found. And turkey vultures have all the same ecological and behavioral "wholesomeness" as black vultures, just not the food thievery.
We had a permanent resident black vulture at the wildlife hospital I worked at, named Escher. If we got too close he would projectile vomit at us, and that was vomit of decomposed rats, his daily food. Sooooo nasty. But I loved him anyway.
Someone’s gotta clean up, and there’s so many around my house, that it seems like they hold a funeral on the oil tanks in my back yard once a week. I never realized how big they were until I seen almost 15 of them lumbering around in the morning getting warm. I like them, but cmon quite circling and eat the dead stuff already it’s starting to smell.
@@sleepyproduction7166 Can you elaborate on what you mean about oil tanks in your back yard? I ask because circling vultures (specifically turkey vultures--do yours have red or black heads? If 'red' then they're turkey vultures) can pinpoint the location of a natural gas pipeline leak; the smell includes some of the same molecules as decomposing animal tissue, so they think there's something dead below, and just keep circling because they can't see a body but the smell tells them 'It HAS to be here!'
So, is there something that happens with these oil tanks of yours on a weekly basis (like emptying, refilling, or something like that)?
I remember when I was going through the worst of my depression, my friend's Tibetan Mastiff (Jess) seemed to know despite nearly no one else even suspecting I was suicidal. She would refuse to leave my side and whenever I would drink too much she would put herself between me and my drink and demand my attention.
It was kinda sad how long it took everyone to realize what she did so soon but thankfully because of her I actually was able to make it through those tough times. Just sitting on the back porch with her and eventually her pups was the peace of mind and quiet I really needed. Though now that she and her pups know I'm better I get destroyed by the tsunami of fluff everytime I go visit.
😄
Aww all the love to her and her pups and you as well! I hope you've been doing better now too.
Wow of all the types of dogs, I did not expect a Tibetan mastiff to detect depression....
Oh I've had many experiences with dogs being extra clingy with me as a teenager when I was depressed. Like annoyingly so, forcing their heads between your neck and shoulder and things like that lol
What a great loving dog. I’ve had some health struggles over the past year and my dog always seems to know and will snuggle against my back or my legs, just giving the right amount of pressure so I know she’s there but not enough to discomfort me. She’s wonderful and I can’t imagine life without her. Her head is resting on my thigh as I type 😊
This vid litterally made me cry out of cuteness and pure serotonin.
I just want you to know how much joy you bring to my heart man I'm 52 years old and I've learned so much from you, thank you man you truly bring a smile on my face. I wish I could support you more than I do and plan to one day
I'm not surprised that the Manatee got the number 1 spot. They were my grandfather's favorite animal and one of mine. The music used perfectly encapsulates the vibe they give off.
The manatee pulled up to the number one spot on the list.
I love how you will be just minding your own buisness and out of no where one will balloon to the surface of the water like saying "hi there, nice day out right?" Lol
One time I was on an airboat tour in the Everglades and our driver started freaking out. He said there was a massive group of manatees heading straight for our boat so he stopped the engine and we just sat there. They came right up next to us and chilled there for a bit. I got the most amazing photos and videos of them. Even the driver was excited because he said he's never experienced them coming so close in such shallow water before.
That's so cool, I wonder if they headed to the sound of the airboat to check it out, or if they just didn't see any reason to avoid it? I really want to believe they came to play with you lol
This is why we need National Parks.
They're really too curious for their own good, getting close to boats like that
That's awesome I always loved them so much since I was a youngster. Jealous af. Lol
I commented in the main, but yeah, they really are too curious for their own good. Once, we spent the better part of an afternoon in Fanning Springs with a group of them not far off, and one helped my Sister in the Suwanee River once (Albeit, I don't think that was it's blatant intention, but it earned our gratitude and some handfulls of river bank grass). Such sweet animals, it always upset me when I heard about a Manatee strike or saw the scars on one from a boat propeller.
If we ever go extinct and some other species digs up our remains, I hope in their textbooks they show a dog seated proudly next to us. They deserve to share our legacy.

When my late mother discovered pangolins, she INSTANTLY fell in love with them!! I know she's watching me watch this from above and smiling at the wholesomeness of how sweet they are. Thank you for including them in your video!🥰
P.S. Love how unbelievably funny and creative you are! Please keep up the awesome content! You're one of my very favorite creators! 💕
Pangolins are suspected of having started off viral pandemics, then again, the virus spread is mainly caused by human poaching activity. Some rich humans somewhere believed pangolin has medicinal value and put a high price on it. After eating pangolins, got infected, where do you think those rich bunches do? Travels, business meetings globally, handshake with others in business or social settings; making them the patient 0 superspreaders.
Now, do we still gonna blame pangolins for spreading a certain virus?
I'm sorry about you mother, but agreed
yes! pangolins are my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE!! I would probably pass out from excitement if I ever saw one, lol!
Your mother must be really happy with this video - I know I am! So, not only are you witty, erudite and well-informed, it seems you're also a good son. Small wonder then, that the manatees have awarded you the 1st place spot on their 10 Favorite Humans list. Thank you for educating us all.
I’ve watched this video at least 20 times in the last six months and probably shared it as many times. Good job my dude.
If you ever get the chance to pet a capybara, I HIGHLY suggest you take it. They aren't very soft, but the look of utter bliss on their face is SO worth it.
They feel more like straw
And the happy-noises they make!!! More than worth it!
@@icarusbinns3156 exactly
@@flickcentergaming680 and like cats, THEY decide when petting is done
Fun Fact about the Capybara: Here in Argentina they re-took a whole neighborhood in Nordelta.
Months before some rich people start building a neighborhood in a wetland and kick the Capybara's out, months later they just regroup and recapture the whole place. Now they live together, some Karen's doesn't like them but the rest of the people just told them to F off and leave the capybaras (Carpinchos) alone.
In all the news they were talking about the Great Capybara Invasion.
I actually saw this in the news 😂 I’m in Kenya lol
As they should
Ham-ham power!
Yeah, I remember that. That was one of the good things the pandemic brought, as since there was no people around because we all were at home, animals of all kinds retook the place, in this case carpinchos.
Yet, I never heard of any Karen complaining about them, maybe because everyone likes carpinchos so much that every negative voice was muted.
Bro the whole thing about cats defending is true AF, my cat seirra protected me from a big as dog as a baby, loved her so much, rip seirra you were perfect.
the comment about dogs knowing where you’re pointing is definitely subjective considering my two dogs look at whatever is closest , even if it’s not in the direction i’m pointing at lmao
The fact that the bison helped the wolves is crazy, also congratulations on hitting 2 million Subs 👍🏽
*ruclips.net/video/lE5U2d1shBM/видео.html*
Finally it's here.
Ooops all bots
To be fair it didn't so much help the wolves as help itself. It was this way or no way and screw anyone in that way.
he didnt need to outrun the wolves, just needed to outrun his bro
@Don't read profile photo stop doing that
Personal experiences with wild capybaras:
- male specimens will bite your boat and punch a hole through it if you happen to be near their puppies;
- if the males happen to fight, the loser capybara will be kind of exiled (and need some time to heal the wounds, they really kick and bite hard).
@Henzo8i8 I wouldn't recommend petting wild ones for a couple of reasons: 1- they are "chill" most of the times, but in my experience they prefer not to be bothered by people, they might just run away if you try, but those teeth are nasty; 2- they have ticks carrying Rocky Mountain spotted fever (RMSF), which is also a nasty disease. If you ever have the opportunity to be near them, I guess you should just appreciate them from distance (they impressive in many ways, mostly by their size and behaviour); and maybe carefully give/leave them an ear of corn, they absolutely love those.
P.S.: I'm no biologists or zoologist, but there is a rather big population of them in my University's campus by our rowing venue and I sometimes help the veterinarians with their population control.
@@CaioAguida uhhhh…. By “help with population control” you mean YOU KILL THEM????
@Henzo8i8 The only question I wanted the answer to, too.
@Henzo8i8 Don't try to pet wild capybaras, only if they are in a petting zoo or a designated park.
@@CaioAguida well to be honest if I were chilling I wouldn’t want someone coming up and petting me ether just let me vibe
Macroshiroptera Bats (like Flying Foxes) are actually just cuddly fruit-eating puppies with wings.
So yah, I was HOPING that you would show them, and by gawd, you did not dissapoint.
New favourite word for the adorable Manatee … ‘Sea Squishie !’ 😍🥰👌🏾
Can I just say, I’m glad that you made sure to emphasize you were anthropomorphizing these animals and reiterated in each one that they’re still wild animals. I think more nature content should do that. So many people forget how dangerous animals are or just generally have a warped view of animals because of things like petty privilege and stuffed animals and such. I think a bit more realism would prevent a lot of injuries. Great video!!
I mean I have a stuffed Orca-
Yeah I was really happy that he said that. So many people like to be armchair zoologists and act like every animal emotes the same exact way that humans do and get mad when you try to point to the fact that, yes, they're wild animals and no, they don't share our emotions.
Pretty privilege ? What
@@ussinussinongawd516 Pretty privilege. Animals that people find more pleasing because they’re cuter. Like how people think otters are so cute so they must be sweet and like to play when really they’d wreck your shit if you tried
It goes both ways. There are lots of people who anthropomorphize bad human characteristics on animals. Also lots of people who UNDER-attribute animals to having emotions or even feeling physical pain, like they're just objects simply because they can't talk or make as much facial expression as humans.
Bat poop is also a massively effective, naturally occurring fertilizer. The discovery of modern fertilizer happened because bat poop works THAT WELL on crops. :D
Love your videos!
@JJ exactly, bat poop is called guano. Fertilizer is basically synthesized guano that is the bedrock of modern agriculture. However, there is a problem now with fertilizer: 2 of its non-renewable ingredients (Potassium and Phosphate) are starting to run out, especially Phosphate.
Potassium+Phosphate together or Potash. Potash, is a non-renewable resource that is largely controlled by 4 countries. Canada is by far the world largest producer of potash,with over one third of the worlds potash coming from Canada. Russia, Belarus and China between 10-20% of world's potash. Every other nation in the world only produce 19% of the world's potash.
In terms of Phosphate only, it's a question of WHEN and not IF phosphate deposits runs out on Earth. At number 1, Morocco owns 70% of the world's phosphate (a lot of phosphate deposits are in the disputed Western Sahara occupied zone). China is second and is still worried and already stopping exports of its own phosphate!
Link: ruclips.net/video/GztRh8isKKc/видео.html
@@turankhan2381 Regarding guano, it was also used to make gunpowder as it consists in large part of saltpeter (potassium nitrate).
@@Harrowed2TheMind Oh you're totally right. Gosh that potassium finds itself in many things! And in biochemistry, phosphate is literally the building block of all energy. Triphosphate group splitting from adenosine, aka ATP, one phosphate group at a time, from ATP (tri-3) down to ADP (di-2) down to AMP (mono-one phosphate group remaining).
It was also the base for cosmetics for ages. I’ll never go to Carlsbad again..
@JJ That's just batshit insane!
I just want to drop a thank you for the amazing content. It’s some of my very favorite things to watch. Again thank you.
It is so heart warming to know that animals like Manatee exist ❤️
I'm so happy and grateful that you put cats on this list. They're too often needlessly vilified so it was nice to see them finally getting the positive attention they deserve.
Amen
Like he said, they’re tsunderes. Some people just only look at them being jerks or just had a bad experience.
I guess, they are domesticated. But those claws bother me. After I had a friend's very gentle cat be nice to me, I was able to be okay petting a cat. I was that scared of them, as a very big animal/dog person this bothered me for many years that I was so afraid of cats. Now I do midnight hang outs with the neighbor's cat when I can't sleep.
@@differentlyabledmuslimjewi4475 is it normal that dog person's dislike cats or is it my bias? Just curious
They are spawns is Satan, creatures of evil
Quokkas are some of the most adorable creatures I've ever seen. It always makes me sad to hear of animals who are not born with an innate distrust of humans since it makes them so vulnerable. It's how we have lost so many wonderful species around the world.
The quokkas you see are all from one island. They're not scared of humans (or anything) because there are no predators there. There are populations of quokkas on the mainland, but you never see them because they are naturally cautious.
It is sad, but true. If you look at the dodo, it didn’t die out cause it was stupid, it died because it didn’t have predators on its island and so didn’t fear humans. I do wish we could just stop killing out beautiful animals for such idiotic reasons.

Fun fact: I was crying and Bella, my Aussie dog, came up to me and sat next me even after I pushed her away.. I love her with all my heart. And of course I hugged her.
We don't deserve dogs, but dogs kindly ignored that memo.
Everytime my mom has a nervous breakdown(one most recent), my dog would come up to me and silently ask for my help. And when I would lead him to check on my mom, he's instantly licking her arm and trying to help calm her down.
Even when she was on the road, just the thought of him managed to help her calm down enough to get home safely and see him irl.
Sometimes, we do not deserve dogs...
Why push her away if you’re gonna accept her right after?
Dogs have a lot of empathy in them. If you whine like a dog, they will become concerned and will lick you to make you feel better or check what's wrong, because they do the same with littermates. I also once saw an unfortunate video back in the early days of RUclips, where a dog's companion, another dog, had tragically been hit and killed by a car. The one still alive kept nudging it repeatedly, then looking at the people walking past, as though wondering if anyone would help. After several minutes of this, it seemed to slowly...regretfully understand that its friend was no longer alive. It would nudge, then walk a few steps away, but then come back and nudge again, very reluctant to leave them. I think eventually, the dog moved on, but you could tell it was hurting without its friend. I don't think anyone in the comments finished that video dry-eyed. I still remember the title of it..."Please, Wake Up".
Good girl, Bella! It's my cat, Delilah, who lets me cry into her fur when I'm overwhelmed.
That food meow actually mimics the same pitch as the cry from our babies. The pitch human babies hit when crying urgently is programed in our brains to set us off, and bother the shit out of us. That's our incentive to care for the baby even when tired, because we want to stop the noise. Cats discovered that pitch and how it affects us, and started using it
Baby: *Waaaah!*
Cat: _taking notes_ *Meaaaahw*
Also cat: Auntie, you smell funny. >pounces on my stomach and leads me to the fridge, where juice is kept<
And then back across the house to give her treats for alerting me to a low blood sugar. She’s a good kitty
Oh, those clever little furballs
I can not agree that a cats meow sounds like a human babies crying...
Are y'all serious??😂😂
@@aidene5513 it's not that it sounds like it but that it hits the same pitch
I'm so happy to see someone talking about bonobos! They're absolutely fascinating
I love seeing some love for bats, they're one of my favorite animals! They're so misunderstood it's sad. And Cats of course are amazing little fur balls!
Dogs were the first domesticated species by a few thousand years. There is archeological evidence that humans and dogs have lived together for over 30 000 years, more than 10 000 years before horses and cattle. There's a reason that they are the pets that understand us best.
That's what I wrote my senior paper about, they were still wolves when we first began domesticating them though. Before they were even domesticated they would sit outside the camps and villages near our scrap heaps and keep watch for predators or other humans and would bark to awaken the tribe. All in exchange for our scraps so they wouldn't have to spend time or energy hunting.
It's too sad what humans did to a majestic creature such as the wolf though. So many dog breeds are so pointlessly small and have so many problems, especially with breathing; it's just animal cruelty at that point.
its unfortunate what humanity has done to this species. breeds like the pug, french bulldog, ANY teacup dog and some "showline" breeds are so drastically unhealthy, its ridiculous.
@@Dogmaaa On the flipside, actual working-lines breed with temperment and health in mind often lead to far more wholesome results.
Go look at workingline vs showline GSDs and thier breeders to see what I'm talking about. There's plenty of workingline GSD breeders who genuienely care about thier dogs.
@@kidwolf0015 yes! i am well aware of the working-line breeds and their benefits, and i actually quite adore how separate they are from the diseased showlines
Just to add on to the cat thing. I lost my horse and I was on the verge of tears. Azula (my cat) left her kittens, pulled herself onto my lap, laid her head on my shoulder and purred until I calmed down.
Although that is sad, that is also beautiful.
I’m sorry you lost your horse, I hope you smile when you think of him now.

My family had a cat named Precious, and she was a part of our family for 21 years... I miss her so much, but besides 21 years of love, comfort, and affection, she gave me my mother's life as well. My mother nearly died, but Precious came and got me... she refused to leave me be until I followed her. She led me to my mother's room, where my mother sat paralyzed in her recliner, with her body and nervous system slowly shutting down from an OD of three neurological drugs. She had fallen down a flight of steps and severely damaged her ankle 2 years earlier. She was in constant pain, had moved in with me after she could no longer readily care for herself, and as we found out months later, _all three prescriptions_ for her chronic nerve pain and depression all turned out to have one particularly nasty side effect listed in the small print... To this day, we suspect that those side effects, amplified threefold, were what caused her to do what she did. I almost lost her that night, but Precious knew she was not well, and she made sure I helped her. I love that cat, even today, years since we lost her... She still lives on in my heart, and my mother's heart. Cats are the perfect companions to humanity.
@Vyorus Thanks! Yeah, she was a cat that definitely lived up to her name a thousand fold! Her final day hurt so much, but she was at peace and was content. That day, she didn't eat. She'd been suffering from arthritis in her later years, and we did what we could for it, but it was getting worse. That day, Precious played with her favorite toys, watched the birds out her favorite window... She did all her favorite things, aside from eating, and then she went to my mother. She laid in her arms and looked up at her... My mother knew Precious was letting her know it was time for her to go. We have no idea how long it would have actually taken... My mother was not going to let Precious waste away and suffer as she let go, so she called the vet and they came out to the house. My mother respected Precious's final wish. Precious went to sleep and put up no fight with the vet when they came. They let her go peacefully. She isn't truly gone though, cause as long as her human family still lives, she'll remain alive in our hearts.
Don't mind me sobbing over here... Just hard to bring back tough memories like these...

When i was a kid there was a manati that spent a whole summer on a river close to my family's beach house. We used to go and caress it when it got close to shore, and it simply allowed it, it was hella cute and big. I don't know if it's alive still, but im thankful for the good memories.
I actually volunteer at a bat rehab center and they're so awesome and really cute! My childhood cat also tried to protect our house. My mom was home alone and had to call an ambulance but couldn't get up to unlock the door, so the EMTs went under the garage door that we left open about 6 inches. Our cat was in the garage, and the EMT said she thought our cat was going to attack her.
Not so sure about regular cows, but it makes sense that the "sea cow" aka the manatee would not only be as big as your mother, but as nice as your mother as well.
That toke a wholsome turn
You slipped a “yo mama” joke there…..nice
My neighbor once had a young cow that acted like a huge, grass eating dog. She did not live in a pack, as she only shared her pasture with ponies that didnt care about her. But she always ran to the fence whenever there was anyone nearby, would calmly moo at them, and if you got close enough, she´d lick your arm, and try to lick your face just like a dog. The only difference is that unlike dogs, her tongue was like a sandpaper, almost grinding through my jumper.
