"abraço da morte" that means "embrace of death" is a phenomenon that happens between two plants: one serves as a host and the other one as a guest. The guest needs to develop attaching itself to the host's stem, it allows to emit roots, which will serve as support. According to guest's growth, it compromises the life of the host killing it by strangulation caused by the growth of guest's roots around the stem. The embrace of death is a phenomenon that occurs commonly with Apuizeiro plants (Cecropiaceae) and happens when birds defecate its seeds, they settle and germinate in the bark of trees. Thank you for visiting, we hope you had fun and see you soon! Greetings from Brazil
Everytime i go driving around Japan, this is exactly what i see all over the country. One of their prettiest flowers grow on a vine they call Fuji, the wisteria, and so much of it has been choking out entire forests. All parts of the plant are also toxic from a chemical called wisterin. So while they have cultivated wisteria vines growing on metal brackets for viewing and the bunches of flowers are gorgeous, in the wild, wisteria is causing a TON of tree deaths and they can't do anything about it because it's literally named the same thing as their holy mountain. Apparently like another Chinese/Japanese import kudzu, they're becoming a huge problem in the SE United States as well as an invasive species, but the edible Kudzu could be taken care of if the US employs more herds of weedmowing goats. *Wisteria in Chinese is directly translated as "purple vine flower" 紫藤花, but they can be several shades of purple, but also white and pale yellow/green. Their vines can also grow to around 15cm(5.9") diameter.
Common misconception. Orchids aren’t parasitic as they don’t take nutrients from the host plant. But they are epiphytic meaning they attach to trees and rocks and take in the nutrients from insect/bird poop and bark/leaf debris in the water that runs off the host.
yea you get consistent audible volume and the vlogger gets to commentate on stuff which they might not be able to do during the actual recording. the editor is also having fun with the annotations! this style of vlogging probably also takes more effort since maya has to dub over the clips herself.
Brazilian dessert pizza IS a thing, there is no mozzarella in the chocolate one though. We do use some cheese for a particular guava paste flavor, called "Romeo and Juliet", it's *good.* Anyway, if you really want to try Brazilian pizza, you'd have to go to Brazil again and go to São Paulo, because in terms of Italian descendents, São Paulo is just like New York, so the pizza game there is on another level. The sushi game ALSO is great here, although that's a bit of a new thing (biggest japanese population outside of Japan baby!). Anyway, if it ever interests you, you should go to Brazil again to do some videos on some of the other biomes we have. Caatinga, Mata Atlântica, Pantanal, Cerrado... It's a lot of diverse life, these places are also documented way less often compared to the Amazon to foreigners so it'd almost be an exclusive scoop!
I love how the summary of this content is: Come to Brazil! 😂 I think i will one day visit Brazil too. You seem like suuuuch great people and i'd love to see Brazil

the "hug of death" at 8:29 refers to when a parasitic plant laces itself around a host plant's trunk until it (the parasitic one) develops roots, killing its host (this is an oversimplification because I'm not a bottanist, I'm just translating). If you google INPA Abraço da Morte there are some pictures and articles about it (in portuguese)
as a brazilian myself, I really enjoyed in how you got into details about pretty much everything related to people’s cultures, lifestyles, local flora and fauna, between a bunch. I appreciate vlogs in this style a lot. hope you make more videos like this aswell as I hope your editor also keeps adding a lot of funny twists to it. awesomez :)
I could relate so hard every time you freaked out bc an animal is so pretty or majestic- the people around me always look down on me for saying how cute fish or insects are bc they freak them out... but they ARE cute. And Im not gonna stop praising them for keeping our world going!
8:30 'abraço' means hug and 'morte' means death, so it literally means hug of death. Searching around the internet it seems to be a term for when a plant grows its roots around another plant, effectively starving and strangling them in a "hug of death"
Im skittish around bees and wasp because i got stung once by accident since i was sitting down on a floor and accidently put my hand on a dead bee and got stung by it
Ik it weird i don't know why i started having apiphobia when a bee didn't stung me i just started having intense fear of bee and wasp after that @@irishguyfromireland215
@@irishguyfromireland215also i was a kid when that happened i did not know that a bee can still sting after it death but i also didn't know there was a dead bee next to me i was distracted cause i was doing exercise and was tired and sat down put my palm to the sides and got stung by it
The desert pizzas are actually a big thing in brazil, you will find them in every pizza shop with various different flavours. HOWEVER there is a huge debate regarding if cheese should be put in it or not. Some places do, some places don't. I personally dont like it but some people love it

Loving the Brazil content, and your "unique style of voiceover"! It's much like when I look at upcoming dates in my calendar and see that past me has(helpfully) written "12 O'CLOCK!!!" No clue what she was on about but we're all here to find out☺️
It is so amazing seeing you show us so many AMAZING insects that haven't even been LABELLED. AND THE FRKN CAIMAN WAS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. I can't wait to see more of these videos!!!
If you get a chance to come to Colorado you should check out The Butterfly Pavilion. It's small and modest, but what they do with the space is awesome. And if you get yourself a tour in the back; you wouldn't be disappointed with some of the kindest and most knowledgeable entomologists, as well as every species you could imagine. Grew up next to the area, and when I was young. If it was a cold winter day in Colorado, I'd walk over there with a book and read on a bench inside the pavilion. Little slice of humid butterfly heaven in this cold desert. insect conservation at its finest.
I'm loving these type of vlogs with your voiceovers. I love how enthusiastic you are remembering what happened when a new clip suddenly show up. Keep up the great work!
WHO ELSE CAME FROM THE PROP TREE LIVE?? also maya you are such a cool human the conservation work you do is so dope we really need more humans like yourself 🙌
I love that you have no idea what's happening during the voice overs, it engages me more than normal because im not getting spoonfed whats happening lmao
I love that the staff got all these super cool, handcrafted wood sculptures of animals native to the amazon, and Connor just got a slide whistle, but we know from future videos how much he loves it! haha
We have green collared parakeets in cologne, Germany, its so cool to see them! Almost all our native birds are muted colours, grey, black etc but some 50 years ago some pet parakeets were released by someone or broke free and now theres about 2000 parakeets swooshing through the city in a big green swarm or individually, its so cool to see :) (Though dont just buy exotic pets and release them because you cant take care, thats bad!)
0:30 just 30 seconds in and the community reminds me of the community my sister lives in with her family in Costa Rica. I LOVE these communities because it truly takes a village and these people are utilizing theirs for great things!
7:12 it so weird how many undiscovered species exsist with in a rainforest and how dense it can really be that we still finding unknown creatures with in the earth and deep-sea
I was about to write about my arachnophobia, and how every time I see one on even film it freaks me out, I get goosebumps and itchy sensations from anxiety. It was really nice to include a time stamp. Even more of a reason to support Maya and her team. Ps. I don’t hate spiders, just have an irrational fear of them.
Maya drinking brahma was not something I expected to ever see in a video, hahahahahha, I'm glad you enjoyed your stay in Brazil. We have other very interesting and biodiverse biomes here, like the "pantanal" (a very large flooded biome) and "mata atlântica" (a tropical forest), as well as "caatinga" and "cerrado" (savana-like biomes), and "pampas" (grasslands). I'm from Rio, so a little biased, but here we have a very large tropical forrest (Tijuca Forest) in the middle of the city with very nice trails. It's really good to show the difference between the concrete jungle and nature, especially in terms of temperture and air quality.
shoutout to whoever edits these, flawless work. Also this vlogs filming, nuance, structure and feel make it a masterpiece. Emmersive, funny and entertaining. Reminds me that videos with millions in production don't make up for genuine story and humor. :)
I literally just followed u today, and i was crying watching this vlog, it makes me so happy to see someone outside of brazil going there e being so respectful and happy to be there, thats actually makes my day !! so thank u for loving my country so much
That was really cool! I watched the whole thing. Im not so into bugs personally, but some of them are quite beautiful. Looking forward to seeing more soon.
I love voice over maya! It's always fun hearing the unedited excitement (especially in the comfort of your own recording space, since it does get awkward vlogging) Keep up the good work!
I am SOOOOOO excited for the video next week! I’m so glad you got to go on this trip I hope you have more opportunities to educate and travel in the future!! These videos are so fun!
20:10 dessert pizza is definitely a big thing here in brazil, but the mozzarella cheese is controversial 😅 some people love it, some hate it. It's very traditional to keep the mozzarella, but most pizza places will not put it in if you ask, or just not put it at all. If you ever have the chance, try the banana with sugar and cinnamon pizza! It's my favorite both with and without the cheese😊 (people here in my region even make sandwiches of this combination, it's very traditional)
You’ve become such an inspiration to me. I’ll be finding a way to support you and alveus because wow. If I could plan my dream life, I’d be going to Brazil to help educate and preserve these beautiful species. YOU ARE AMAZING and your animals and staff and team is amazing. Thanks for sharing. (I’ll be obsessively watching all your content now. See you at the next PO unboxing video :)
Hey Maya, just wanted to say how incredible your Brazil Vlog was! Your dedication to capturing the essence of the local community and the breathtaking nature around you is truly inspiring. Keep up the amazing work, you're making a real impact with your content!
17:37 while there are parasitic orchids, most are not. Instead most are considered epiphytes meaning they live on other plants (mostly trees) but do not steal energy from the plant they are on!
Maya i just wanted to tell you that through watching your content I have discovered my love for the environment and for conservation!!! Genuinely you work is so important and I thank you for opening my eyes!! I hope that in the future I can do more for our beautiful world and the living things in it.
This was so much fun just to _watch,_ I can't imagine how excited you were!! Congratulations! Thanks for sharing this experience. I hope to visit Brazil some day, and I'd love to go to some of these places as well. Edit: How did I miss the FOSSILS?? If you have more footage of the bones and fossils would you consider uploading it? I wanna see more 😭
damn i love when people express joy of how cool nature is. i love garret the guy that posts his time in the florida everglades and amazon, it makes brain go :) seeing so many critters
The food u mentioned in the vídeo, it's called pastel, one of the most iconic Brazilian dishes. I can't be anything but happy to see that u got the full Brazilian experience with cheese in the chocolate pizza 😝. These vlogs were amazing, can't wait for the rest of the videos, and be more then welcome to come back to our country! Theres a lot of amazing things regarding forests and eco system's, like the place withe the greatest bio diversity in the world, the atlantic forests, and so much!
this video and the last video have been so amazing to see all of the different plant and animal species in brazil and it really makes me want to visit and see all of this amazing wildlife for myself!!! Another banger video Maya as always
Orchids actually are not parasitic! They are epiphytes meaning they lack traditional root systems and latch on to the side of other plants (think ferns or mosses). While they are attached to a larger plant, most orchids are air plants and get the water they need from the atmosphere around them and are not taking anything from the tree or whatever it is on. Additionally, being epiphytic may have conferred a selective advantage in the orchids ancestors because they are not competing with the plants on the ground for resources causing them to evolve to be that way :)
Seeing you in my country in a Waterton shirt made me cry lol. I went on an exchange program 9 years ago, only for a month, but stayed 40 minutes away from Waterton, and it's one of my favorite places ever. Seeing you wear a shirt from one of my favorite places as you show my country just made me emotional idk why. ❤
Sooo nice to see you get so excited about insects :)) when I visited manaus I also went crazy seeing the collection on MUSA! (I work with insects) It's so cool seeing a non-brazillian loving manaus as much as I did ❤ Really liked the video btw

Common misconception. Orchids aren’t parasitic as they don’t take nutrients from the host plant. But they are epiphytic meaning they attach to trees and rocks and take in the nutrients from insect/bird poop and bark/leaf debris in the water that runs off the host.
In addition they form a symbiotic relationship with the tree and the fungi and other microlife that the host has sharing resources
i have to say, i really enjoy this style of vlogs with the voice overs

Orchids actually are not parasitic! They are epiphytes meaning they lack traditional root systems and latch on to the side of other plants (think ferns or mosses). While they are attached to a larger plant, most orchids are air plants and get the water they need from the atmosphere around them and are not taking anything from the tree or whatever it is on. Additionally, being epiphytic may have conferred a selective advantage in the orchids ancestors because they are not competing with the plants on the ground for resources causing them to evolve to be that way :)
Great content, love the voice over. Excited for the next one!
Seeing you in my country in a Waterton shirt made me cry lol. I went on an exchange program 9 years ago, only for a month, but stayed 40 minutes away from Waterton, and it's one of my favorite places ever.
Seeing you wear a shirt from one of my favorite places as you show my country just made me emotional idk why. ❤
that insect collection is amazing
I hope you always do voice overs like this, because it's like we all get to be surprised together, even though you were there! xD
Sooo nice to see you get so excited about insects :)) when I visited manaus I also went crazy seeing the collection on MUSA! (I work with insects)
It's so cool seeing a non-brazillian loving manaus as much as I did ❤ Really liked the video btw
