5 Problem Invasive Species In Florida
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 июл 2024
- What are the worst invasive species in Florida? In this video I will be trying to answer that question as I will be going through 5 problem invasive species in Florida. Florida is a very strange place as it's both known for it's people and it's wildlife. Florida has a very unique climate and ecosystem with means that in some cases it's easy for non native fish and animals to spread. In this video I will be covering the Burmese python, the oscar, the black and white tegu, the brown hoplo catfish and the cane toad.

Thanks for watching I hope you enjoyed :)
What invasive species do you think is the biggest harm to the ecosystem?
Let me know in the comments below? 
Животные
This man's whole channel is so good (also I really like that you're shifting from fish or anything aquatic)
Thank you i really appreciate it and i'm glad people are happy with me including other animals :)
Good video but I would replace tegu's with domestic house cats. They have by far done more damage than any reptile species has to the everglades ecosystem.
That's true for every country and state though, not just Florida. Tegu eat cats and smaller dogs, and absolutely destroys eggs of rare native species.We have a huge problem with them here in Hillsborough county; they were well established already in South Florida and they've spread farther north into Tampa Bay (they took a similar range path to the cane toad).Now they've started spreading into central Florida up to St.Augustine
@Javier Lugo yeah...iguanas are extremely destructive, but we can eat iguanas at least. They're quite tasty too (they have a taste kind of like game hen) When it gets cold enough to where they start dropping out of the trees, people collect them and euthanize them for the meat, and will eat it, sell it, or both. Ever since the FWC started the campaign in 2019, it's gained serious popularity. Green iguana meat was a really hot commodity from November - Feb of 2020-2021! Best way to get rid of an invasive species (or most species as far as humans are concerned), if you can't beat em, eat em!
@Javier Lugo the FWC originally said to avoid python meat, or at the very least be cautious about how much you eat, because python meat has a VERY high mercury content (as do the rock python and the articulated python, which are also in the everglades.)They changed the avoid part in 2020 I believe.
The problem is catching them. Snakes are *very* good at hiding, especially in ideal habitat. The 2019 python round up had 10000 people signed up, about 1500 snakes were caught. 2020 was better at 2k for the year. The skin and the bones would do well in sales, but I hate wasting all that meat...would make a good fertilizer though.
Expect pythons eating alligator eggs 😂
**New specie enters in the waters of florida**
Alligators: new food
I’d love an episode on west Europe. But I think you’ll eventually get there since you live there too. Anyway, keep up the good work man. I’m loving it that you’re using other animals in these vids too now!
Can you cover the Great Lakes? I would love to see how you talk about the ecosystem of it as it’s very diverse and is also a the biggest lake chain in the world so it’s kinda special.
Great idea as I’m from northern Illinois
as someone from michigan, i’d love that!
Just going to add a correction about the way constrictors kill. They don't suffocate their prey. They heavily restrict the blood flow with the amount of pressure exerted on the arteries. The restriction causes cardiac arrest to occur. They constrict until they can tell that their prey's heartbeat is no longer active, which can be a bit of a challenge when taking down reptiles such as gators or a croc due to their ability to slow their heart rates down to almost seeming dead. -Giant snake specialist, keeper, and educator.
The cane toad. In Australia there is problem with tripping dogs who have learnt how to lick the glands just enough, not to kill them, but enough to give them a psychedelic trip. The dogs seeks them out for a licking.
The "it's okay I'm a actor" made me giggle. I really did enjoy that.
haha, I thought it was a little sad to see a dog like that so i thought i'd brighten it up a bit and i'm glad you liked it
I'm so glad you got to talk about Florida! It truly has so much biodiversity that I feel you can make so many videos off of it alone!
I visited a friend in Florida a few years ago and he complained of a new lizard that was invading the area. He said it was driving out the american anoles (also know as a chameleon, they turn from brown to green and the males have a bright reddish dewlap under their necks that they flash at competitors or potential mates). These new lizards look a lot like the chameleons in their brown phase, but they are fast and skittish. When you walk near them they take off running and it sounds like rainfall among the dry leaves because they are so many of them skittering away. There were so many of them that they probably are eating all the things the chameleons eat, out competing them. Those invading lizards run around like they are on meth.
I wonder if they are on the list of invasive species. I would like to know the name of this lizard.
There are green anoles common in the pet trade and Cuban anoles. Some of them can interbreed and are sold for $1-25 depending on size and colors
So happy I found your channel I love that your videos are short but don’t leave anything out and you put so much attention to detail in your stock footage, something rare even for big channels. I’d love an episode on New Zealand
this channel needs more subscribers..love the channel and great video as always...keep em coming sir
This channel is so underrated...these videos are just amazing...good job sir
Love the content, I am always learning something new watching your videos!
I’d love to see him do this for each US state
I really want a oregon one
@Anthony Mercado i forgot Connecticut was a state
There needs to be one about Texas.
Cause there’s A LOT of invasive species there
Especially large manmals, like Barbary sheep, Nilgai, Ibex, and many more large ungulates
@@Levimillsap07 we are wgoing to come here over we’ll get w some food
@@Levimillsap07 you got w
Another upload from the fish master
Another amazing video! You have a small fanbase, but its a great one. I have a suggestion, how about a video discussing the most mysterious fish/creatures in the ocean or freshwaters? I think it would be very interesting, and could bring in a new audience of people to your videos.
Another video that always made my day! 🔥
Are you going to cover all of the other states and their invasive species problems? And are you planning to cover other regions around the world? Love the content, keep it up 👌
Another great vid as always, learning so much :)
thanks i appreciate it :)
Don't buy into the hype , it's all exaggerated , fake news .
Feral cats: am i a joke to you people?
I love this channel! Your videos are so entertaining! Do a video on Puerto Rico!
i absolutely love your channel! i have been binging your videos a lot recently and just subbed. i don't typically watch animal videos, but i do now :)
cheers, from a Floridian
You forgot about the brown anole! It's native to the Caribbean Islands, but it was introduced to Florida. It is now the most numerous lizard in my part of Florida, and you almost can't go for a walk without finding at least five of them!
I know you don't get to many views on these vids but keep them up man. I really like watching them
Nice video. Florida is basically the battleground of all the invasive species lol. I've been in the everglades and the oscars are there for sure, think I've seen a bunch of cane toads too. Never any burmese pythons though, surprisingly.
Great video. Thanks!
It'd be cool to see what invasive species are in Wyoming, since Wyoming has such a "unpredictable" climate
I love your videos! I think an interesting location for a next video would be invasive species in Hawaii. Like Koki frogs and myna birds just to name a few 🤙
Thanks for making more videos on invasive species :)
Excellent video very informative, actually the black and white tegu is starting to be a problem in South Carolina, where I live..someone had it as a pet…and it’s range spread to the County I live…sure hope it doesn’t get out of hand
I love these videos your one of my favorite youtubers
thank you i appreciate it :)
loving the new content
*This dog is so cute!🥺*
I love everything aquatic,
but sometimes it's a nice change to see and learn something else. Great work! 👏👏👏 (Meaby I just love every animal on this planet, aquatic or not).🤔
Honestly with how many invasive species are in florida…you could make a series for this 😂
Despite catching 1 inch long, young Brown Hoplo catfish before, i have NEVER seen them in ANY petstore around here in the central areas of florida.
(I can, and have caught young brown hoplo's not even a mile from my house though.)
(interestingly, they had white vertical bands on their sides [mirrored on both sides] )
Love to see more episodes of this, maybe some focusing on specific parts, like the ocean or everglades
Yeah most of these were affecting the everglades, except for the tegus which also come up to the beaches. For the Florida sea he could do the lionfish for sure, but I'm not too sure what else.
@@neo-filthyfrank1347
The lionfish is the only TRUE destructive invasive species , the others just feed the natural , native predators .
Except the snow birds , they destroy everything.
Luv the vids bro keep it up
Yay a new series one of the best channel on RUclips and do Colorado please
Love that you used the idea of doing invasive species by location... waiting for you to reach my home country of 🇧🇿 Belize
Please do more on Florida, very interesting 🧐
Good videos man!
Poor mans @ 3:20 is always called a unresponsible fish keeper lmao🤣🤣
This Channel Rocks!
thank you i appreciate it :)
Awesome contents. Very informative.
you should do a video on Australia and talk about the many invasive species we have, such as European perch, weather loaches, rabbits, foxes, cane toads, carp, tilapia, goldfish, Indian minor birds and eastern gambusia.
Add these invasives next:pleco,iguanas and walking catfish
Snowbirds.🤮
My neck of the woods! Florida! And yes, pretty everything people say and think about Florida is true. This channel is so dope. Love it.
I use to be against snake hunting in any state but after learning about invasive species and what effect it has on the environment I can understand
❤️💖 Hello Tsuki, I loved your channel. I loved your narration on RUclips videos regarding nature and animals. Since you do a great job with Top 5 Problem Invasive Species in Florida, why not do a video of Top 5 Problem Invasive Species in New Jersey where I live? We do have some invasive species in New Jersey. Please? 😃😀😄😁😊😉 👍🏻 💖❤️
I have several animals including an Oscar Cichlid and several Common Plecos and I absolutely HATE that people release such hardy invasive species into the wild
These are so good and fresh.
South Africa maybe? idk, i love your content keep it up :)
yeah that would be pretty interesting, thanks for the support :)
Very nice channel, just found it today….
Florida is great choice as ther is a lot of non native animals . Keep it up waiting for next video
Can you do Kazakhstan please? Because there isn't much info about it and it will be interesting for everyone to learn something new. Cane toads are boring cause everybody knows about them. In less popular regions there are many interesting invasive species. For example, africa, central asia, saudi arabia.
i love your intro
The State of Arkansas is a curious one. Would love to see what you find out.
you should do invasive species in the Mideast region of America (north Carolina-Pennsylvania) next
I can think of two plant species.
Creeping Charlie and Norway Maple.
Yes, a tree can be an invasive species.
@@GODZILLA2915
Don't forget the snowbird , they destroy your environment almost overnight
I live in Florida and this video is factual an spot on for the Florida invasives
Make this a series, invasive species in Florida specifically, I stg like every other thing you see there is invasive 😭
Love these videos
I'm glad you like them, thanks for the support :)
when I was still in Junior High School, I can easily find big fish in ditches and rivers. big fish I mean like Chana, Catfish, Sepat, Betok, Pleco, etc.
but now The fish in my area is decreasing. In Ditch, I can only find Guppy. I miss my old days.
I'm Now trying to Cultivating rare fish : Three spot gourami
The lionfish is also invasive in Florida, but are considered a delicacy in the state as well as the Burmese python
I would be interested in an episode about new zealand. There would be quite some to choose but i wonder what your top 5 would be
interesting video im surprised that feral cats dident make the list tho
Would be interesting to see you do one on Australia. Not only does it have some recent arrivals, but if you include the Dingo as an invasive species, as some people do, it's got an "ancient" invasive species too.
Dingo's Only Live In Australia
@@Handlesareawful2008 they aren't originally from there. They only arrived within the last 9,000 years.
Honestly florida is like africa for cichlids
there's so many south american cichlids in the everglades it's crazy
@@TsukiCove
The birds and bass love them.
Yup ❤️
Can you do one for the Appalachian mountains next ! And also one for invasive flora
canada and I luv ur videos
Thank you i really appreciate it :)
Nice content man thanks
Can u please make blog on indian invasive species fish animal birds.
Thanks again
Can you please do a video on texas? It would be cool if u included a few invasive plants too because we have alot of those and it would make the video longer so u could get more views
Dang this man does a lot research to make these videos for us
The topic is actually very exaggerated , however the truth wouldn't get any attention.
maybe do a comparison invasive species video. for example the snake head was introduced in to the USA and has had something of an impact there and on the other hand the bass or more to the point the peacock bass has been introduced to south east Asia notable Singapore where in now rules the water. i find it interesting how American anglers are concerned that the snake head is killing off the bass where as in another country / Singapore they are concerned that the bass is killing of the snake head.
good job tsuki
Hudson/Mohawk Valley in NY. Or the Adirondack State Park.
Great video as usual, but the Burmese Python max size is 26 ft, the biggest one caught in Florida is almost 19 ft long big enough to eat a mediums sized alligator or full sized man or deer.
7:38 Cute Actor😂🐾
I lived in miami til 2008 and a few yrs before moving I remember iguanas being a big problem down there where you can just catch him in your yard
Do the US pacific northwest invasive species for a video please ❤️
Can u do one on rice lake ontario canada. we have numerous invasive species such as common carp, northern pike, crappie, gobies, zebra mussels, cormorants, etc etc
Please do more on the invasive species inhibiting the United States as a whole, not a tiny portion / state in the country. It'd be much appreciated.
I do think it is worth noting that although, yes Cane Toads are invasive in Florida, they do occur naturally in the USA. They occur naturally in the Rio Grande Valley in extreme South Texas in Cameron, Hidalgo, Jim Hogg, Starr, Webb, Willacy and Zapata counties
I'm not sure if there are invasive species in antarctica but if they are it would be great to make a video about it. P. S. Love you videos 😍 all of theam 👁️
yeah or maybe a video on the strange fish of the Antarctic Ocean, such as the Crocodile Icefish, the Antarctic Silverfish and the Antarctic Toothfish to name just a few
What is that intro song. Great vid
Can we please get a part 2?
yeah i will do at some point as theres so many invasive species in Florida but I'll probably do another location next
@@TsukiCove
Do one on the REAL
destroyer , the apex invasive species the
SNOWBIRD
Destroying the Florida habitat and economy .
Gators : Why i need to carry the whole team in fighting these invaders ??
Would you do Utah, alligator snapping turtles and bullfrog are both invasive here.
Pretty sure you're talking about common snapping turtles. Also, Utah is nothing compared to Florida when it comes to invasives lol
@@sthui2866 I do mean alligator snapping turtles. I do not know how much of a problem they are currently, but they were introduce as a food animal but got out of hand. I found information on the 2021 dwr report. You can have as many as you want, so long as they are dead.
@@sthui2866 though yes, Utah has nothing on Florida.
Please do a video on invasive fish in South Africa.
Iguanas are really invasive in Miami and South Florida. They were falling out of the trees a few years back when south Florida had a rare hard freeze as the iguana being native to South America.
PIne borer beeetle, the japanese beetle, gypsy moth(carapillar), Spotted Lantern Moth, Giant Toxic Hogweed aka cartwheel flower, giant cow parsley. It is related to carrots and parsnips, and is also invasive in Canada and the UK. There are all invasive in New England.
Don’t mind Alligator eggs being eaten. So many here in Northeast FL that you worry near beaches
Yeah I've heard that they're everywhere
Plecos. Oh my the plecos.
the brown hoplo catfish in my country we call them kwie kwie there really delicious
yeah end they are really thankie we dont see them as pet
Sweden would be interesting!
This one need at least a top 10000
You forgot the snakehead fish in this video
I keep the Cane Toad out of my yard with a Golf Club. I like the 3 iron.
Oscars didn't just get dumped into Florida waters by pet owners. FWC is also responsible for introducing them along with peacock bass to combat the snakehead fish. And as for tegus, most invasive ones are around farms and have made for great pet control killing nutria and other rodents. Yes, they eat eggs but there has been no actual proof of tegus raiding nests of Florida crocs, gators, or sea turtles. They even been seen sharing burrows of gopher tortoises and not eating their eggs either. It should also be mentioned that wild tegus can make great pets after being captured and are the most social as well as intelligent of all reptiles as well as also being partially warm blooded.
