I knew they were predators but I didn’t actually grasp at how much of a predator they were until one day a massive rat twice the size of my smallest ferret got inside and lets just say the rat got rekt. I had never seen something that was so small, so cute and so friendly and silly ravage another animal to this extent...Would love to see a tier list of both wild and domestic ferrets/weasels/minks etc :)

    Last year I had a job surveying birds in the short grass prairies of Colorado. Pronghorns were pretty common and were very curious, I think largely because they knew they were far faster than anything else out there. They would come up pretty close behind me and make a weird and loud bark / grunt noise which could be quite startling! Upon turning around they’d sprint a little bit away and then stop and stare at me as if they were trying to taunt me because they knew I couldn’t catch them! Very cool animals - I’m glad they are getting some love as I feel they’re very under appreciated!

    I’d really like to see a video on the ratites. Despite facing similar problems wherever they live, like the struggle of nesting on the ground, they all face different challenges depending on their specific environment. In particular cassowaries and emus are often praised as ranking above the rest of their family. I think an appropriate title would be something like “Are all ratites low tier?” as I think it’s unfair to lump them all into F tier.

    • @maj84
      @maj84 9 месяцев назад +7

      I think the ratites get a bad wrap bc of their extreme vulnerability to neck strikes. Also their struggle with lateral movement is a huge barrier . Any medium sized predator build worth its salt could easily take down a ratite despite the risk of a kick.

    Just a minor correction, pronghorns arent in the giraffe family, they're the only living members of antilocapridae. The closest relatives to this family is indeed the giraffidae so you are correct they're more closely related to giraffes than antelopes and other ruminants, but antilocaprids are not actually within the giraffe family itself
    Giraffa is also a genus, Okapia is the genus for okapi and both are in giraffidae.

    These are truly amazing animals. I was driving on a little two-track trail out in the desert one time when a pronghorn buck started trotting alongside, about fifty yards off to my left. I pushed the gas. So did he. Pretty soon we were doing about 35, and he was staying even with me out there in the sagebrush, not even working hard. I dropped the gas again. So did he. Now we're doing 45, I'm bouncing all over on the rough barely-road, and I get the feeling he's just getting started. All of a sudden he got tired of the game and took off. He was just GONE. He must have been doing about 60. Just left me in the dust. What a cool guy.
    Then there are the times I see them when I'm out trail-running. They always stare at me with a facial expression that says, "Aw, how cute."

    Rather than being particularly great in one skill spread they've instead chosen to be very good across multiple stats having higher than average power and speed. By avoiding stat dumping they've given themselves a high but still balanced skillset that I think makes them very noteworthy amongst avian builds.

    I’m so happy you’re covering them, I remember doing a report on these creatures. They are to me a national American treasure.

    I have a suggestion for a future video.
    I think you should do a video on tails and the things that various builds use them for both good and bad. That way new players who want to incorporate a tail into their build will know what to do and what to avoid.

    you mentioned humans disabling their own tech to help these players out - i'd love to hear more about the ways humans use their high stats to either nerf themselves/others or buff other builds in order to level the playing field. humans have done so much to wreck the meta and it's nice to see that many of them recognize this and do their part to fix it

    Of course I know what the second fastest land animal is! I did my fourth grade project on it. My teacher apparently didn't even know what it WAS, because she described a bighorn sheep when I asked her what it was.

    pronghorn are literally everywhere in my area. one guy killed 11 on the way to work this winter with his mustang as they were huddled on the highway. and yes, they do absolutely run 60 mph and its impressive to watch. they are also very fun to bowhunt, it is not that hard to get close if you have some ridge lines and thermals on your side. the mountain lions still eat quite a few of them based on the carcasses ive found.
