    @oli2034 8 лет назад +13

    Honestly, I'm gonna vote for the scorpions because I never expected them to be housed in a wall in the UK. The slug was also good though, it's just glowing scorpions are cooler. Great video guys!

    It amazes me that they stay there at the same port they arrived at 250yrs ago

  • @H4WK6969

    I remember David Attenborough doing a programme on those scorpions about 20 yrs ago, fascinating stuff.

  • @TheCucuyo9779
    @TheCucuyo9779 8 лет назад +18

    let's keep it civil guys. this is a FRIENDLY competition. You know, "Oh yeah? Hold my beer and watch this."
    That said, Imma have to vote for the sea slug. To be honest, I didn't even know giant sea hares existed until I saw it in Coyote's show, let alone that they secreted gooey ink. That's...pretty weird.
    As much as I love scorpions, they're everywhere.
    That's my vote, and my reasoning behind it. Love you both, and keep up the great work!

    • @williamlowry8809
      @williamlowry8809 8 лет назад +1

      I saw some in France, don't think they were the same species but they definitely were pretty big. Ofc I don't know if they use ink and slime to scare predators away.

    • @epiccarrot88
      @epiccarrot88 8 лет назад +3

      They're not everywhere here in the UK. The closest things we have to scorpions other than at this one port is microscorpions, which don't exactly count. It'd be like finding a population of velvet ants in one port of America; it's really strange over here!

    • @Nadiki
      @Nadiki 8 лет назад +18

      Agreed. Scorpions are awesome, but Coyote's sea hare is MUCH weirder.

    • @hapiestar7164

      That's mainly cause Scorpions are pretty common in the US

  • @siddharthsantosh6608
    @siddharthsantosh6608 8 лет назад +6

    I'd say a brow sea hare beats a scorpion every day. But the scorpions are really interesting too! But in terms of sheer weirdness, Sea hare wins.

  • @mattchandler14
    @mattchandler14 7 лет назад

    Hiya! Brave Wilderness fan here - glad to have found your channel through this competition. As an East Coast, US resident this is a tough one, the Pacific coast is just as far from my home as Kent. I've never seen the Western US, so many of the animals there are strangers to me. However, I did live in S.E. England for 2 years after finishing University, and even though scorpions are pretty common where I live, I NEVER thought to see one in the UK. Great Find!

  • @whoboy3
    @whoboy3 8 лет назад +5

    New here from coyote but you guys win for sure!!

  • @areallyboringname
    @areallyboringname 8 лет назад +1

    Amazing work as ever guys! But is that the weirdest we have in the UK? If so you may have to ask the beeb to stump up some more travel funds if you want to win the next round, because that crazy sea slug unfortunately trumps the mini-scorpion... even though it is very, very cool. Keep up the good work - I look forward to seeing what you come up with next time!
    Would be interested to know how far those scorpions have spread as well? I've heard reports of them living in London? Do they cope OK with our winters? As far as invasive species go, they're definitely one of our oddest!

  • @devanneuenschwander6004

    Scorpions are way cool, but in terms of what's more bizarre, then the sea hare has got to be the winner.

  • @businesscatlimbo
    @businesscatlimbo 8 лет назад

    I'd have to say the sea hare that Coyote found was the most bizarre out of the two. Great video though! I hope you and Coyote do more challenges and collaborations together in the future.

    @DanHarkless_Halloween_YTPs_etc 8 лет назад

    Didn't expect a Brave Wildnerness shoutout in a BBC video! (Not going to declare a "winner" as requested, as I'm very glad to have both of your channels capturing different sorts of wildlife.) Very interesting about the invasive scorpion population at the port surviving for so long based on what must have been a very small initial population size! It never occurred to me that there would be no scorpions in the U.K., but in retrospect that does seem somehow intuitive. Wow, only feeding 4 times a year? Crazy. I also didn't realize it was _all_ scorpions that glow in UV. Thanks for the great video.

  • @Molb0rg
    @Molb0rg 8 лет назад

    that is absolutely cool, never ever thought they can glow like this under any conditions.

    • @Molb0rg
      @Molb0rg 8 лет назад

      although never ever knew that huge slug exists, taff choice, but it is sea there are a lot of weird creatures, so I'll go with glowing scorpion which exist there where it should not.

  • @MaDmanex100
    @MaDmanex100 8 лет назад

    Very interesting find! And in a urban area aswell. As exiting as the scorpion is i do think that coyote has won finding the very strange slug that i have never seen before.

  • @lalaAddicted2Music
    @lalaAddicted2Music 8 лет назад

  • @jamesrusso2977
    @jamesrusso2977 8 лет назад

  • @JustCause951
    @JustCause951 8 лет назад +2

    Even though I really enjoy Coyote I'm going to say that this scorpion wins.

  • @alanbattison3544

    some animals like chickens can see as they're looking in a black light and certain bugs glow to them.my chickens can spot seemingly invisible bugs do the camouflage(in regular light , not in ultraviolet) and get them even at a distance

  • @RayPayumi
    @RayPayumi 8 лет назад

    While scorpions are indeed bizarre, it's nothing out of the ordinary. Spiders are bizarre, and they are everywhere. I already knew that they glow under UV light. What I didn't know was that slugs can have ink. So for me, Brave Wilderness won this round.

  • @theghostslayerhd2389
    @theghostslayerhd2389 8 лет назад

    Coyote wins. He too has found a creature that gives off a strange color, however not through UV light, but naturally. I also find the brown sea hare to be a little more exotic, because I'm dutch and we don't really get creatures like that here. Well played though

  • @janetlapham3919
    @janetlapham3919 8 лет назад

    The habitat of this scorpion makes it much weirder than the sea slug.

  • @asemdaghistany8610
    @asemdaghistany8610 8 лет назад

    i think these guys have won cuz wt they showed is pretty bizarre.. like why would the scorpion glow in the dark under UV light?! i cant see a reason how this can be a surviaval adaptation for the scorpion, and thus i think this vid deserves to win for showing something that is very weird and alien-like

  • @jennotaro3741
    @jennotaro3741 8 лет назад

    thats amazing i would never belive there was scorpions in the uk

  • @Christopher-vj2ie
    @Christopher-vj2ie 8 лет назад

    This is a tough one.
    I was definitely more stunned to find out there were scorpions in the UK.
    But I also think, that as far as bizarre goes, Coyote found the motherload.
    On the other hand I was more amazed by the scorpion, whereas the slug mostly just grossed me out.
    No! I'm going to give it a tie.

  • @unkown352
    @unkown352 8 лет назад

    I'll admit the secret scorpions in the UK is pretty cool. Although the goal was to find the strangest creature. I believe coyotes got you beat with his brown sea slug.

  • @TheNinjafrostpn
    @TheNinjafrostpn 8 лет назад

    Where in Kent is this? Scorpions in the UK? That's awesome :) Still think Coyote's is weirder, though, since sea slugs just look so alien

  • @spiritualjester7577
    @spiritualjester7577 8 лет назад

  • @dinodare1605
    @dinodare1605 8 лет назад

    Sorry, but I believe Coyote has it in the bag.
    Scorpions may be a bit creepy, but their nothing too bizarre. While you are holding a scorpion, coyote is holding a gigantic, 3 pound black slug, as well as a Sea hare that squirts purple Ink. Cool videos on both sides though, I never knew the thing about how the tail and claw size can tell you how toxic a scorpions sting is.

  • @washedmaffle11
    @washedmaffle11 8 лет назад

    I think in principle, the scorpion is weirder and probably especially weird to anyone living in the UK who thought they were safe from scorpions. As a resident of Arizona though, I come across them all the time so as for stranger looking, it's the sea slug.

  • @HireDeLune
    @HireDeLune 8 лет назад +11

    • @spopple88

      a slug isnt more interesting than a scorpion unless your biased.

  • @meganno8930
    @meganno8930 6 лет назад +1

    coyote won because a slug that sprays out PURPLE INK?!?!?

  • @TheBarrelsBottom
    @TheBarrelsBottom 8 лет назад

    I think people are missing the point. Yeah, scorpions really aren't that weird. I live in Arizona and I see them all the time. But, it's the fact that they're in the UK and just in one isolated spot.
    I'm not really sure who won. I think that the sea hare was a more bizarre animal, but I think that the happenstance of the scorpions is strange.

  • @JonathanHawk101

  • @NinjaSushi2
    @NinjaSushi2 7 лет назад

    I think scorpions in the UK is more strange than slugs off the West Coast. I never thought in a million years the UK would have scorpions. I thought it was too cold and wet. (I'm from Texas so it's mostly hot and dry here.)

  • @tim1556
    @tim1556 8 лет назад +1

    I'd have to say coyote won with the sea hare but if this was a contest of who's was a more interesting animal I'd say you won

  • @somegamer7658
    @somegamer7658 8 лет назад

    I can't really choose because they both are just so unique in their own ways
    The scorpion can practically glow in the dark
    And the brown sea hare can ink
    So they both are equally cool
    I would say they tied
