How many of these animals have you seen?
two: red squirrel and wallaby
Seen 3
i am so sure i saw a pinemartin up in scotland
A Red squirrel in northwest isn’t uncommon
I saw a sphinx in cornwall once
they are introducing the Scottish wild cats in pairs, making sure the male and females have come from different families and different parts of Scotland. I really hope they do succeed and breed.
@@nedkelly5866 definitely not if they have more genetically similar compatriots also there.
@@nedkelly5866 They'll only breed with another species if they can't find a mate of the same species. It happens everywhere. I would say 9/10 they choose the same species even if another species is present, but not the other way around
The breed with domestic cats thus diluting the genes.😑
Isn't another reason red squirrels are disappearing is due to grey squirrels carrying a disease that doesn't effect them but instead effects red squirrels?
Yeah sadly
That's what I was told years ago.
I've had a black fox local to me, used to seem him as a small cub in a nature reserve and saw him every now and again but haven't spotted him for months so I guess he either left the area or has been killed.
I believe these are why the stories of black shuck came about.
Wild foxes don't live for long in nature tho, so he might've passed away not due to hunting. Saw a female fox in my area almost every day, easy to identify because she didn't have a tail (most likely lost it after getting hit by a car or something). I saw her for about 2 years, and then nothing. And I don't believe she was shot, as she lived in a rather "akward" hunting area, she dissapeared outside of hunting season and she didn't have a tail. I believe she could've been 4 years old around the time she stopped appearing, which is on the "older" side for wild foxes
We have a few red squirrels in Formby, here in Liverpool. They are looked after by the forestry commission.
Yes Ive seen them in Formby, Morpeth, Northumberland, in the Lake District and in Scotland.
I'd say the rarity depends a lot on the location. I live in the countryside in the North West of County Durham, I used to see loads of Red Squirrels when I was younger. I probably haven't seen one in 5 years or more. Same goes for water voles, and I'm out hiking every weekend. The biodiversity in my area is terrible.
We moved to Tyneside 30 years ago, and there were still red squirrels in the Derwent Valley and the north of Newcastle. Not any more. The greys arrived in Gateshead and now the parks Newcastle city centre. :(
Love idea of re wilding a lot of our lost species BUT, When any animal has been brought up in any type of captivity, they are fed so NOT used to living wild and a lot die die from starvation PLUS with the way we are taking away a lot of the moorland and green spaces this would also be bad. Of which n one hears about. So im actually on the fence with any re wilding at all
Bro can you do more fitness videos like the 1200 calories one 🎉
mink have destroyed the wildlife of my local river
Sadly its the same story in so many areas of the UK.
I'm English,but saw loads (by loads I mean four or five) red squirrels in Germany in the............. Not going to tell you my age!😵💫
The huge growth in numbers of grey squirrels in Great Britain have cut the Red Squirrels to 140,00 from a population of 3.5 MILLION. This is a continuing process that will very likely render the red squirrel from "least concerned" status, to "concerned" to threatened if left unchecked.
And yes, you doff your hat in respect for someone, but it simply means to remove an item of clothing. One could doff their trousers instead of their hat, but the reaction might be very different!
I really enjoy your content!
I remember seeing red squirrels in England in the late 90s and early 2000s but since then only seen them in Scotland. They are such lovely creatures!
I think the argumentative lad needs doesn't understand the meaning of rare, less than 10,000 animals globally. If you work it out a a percentage of the UK's land mass on a world scale then every species on this list is probably within the rare bracket
Red squirrels in Cumbria and The Lake District to see easily, recently they did discover that the Cumbrian Red squirrels are different to Scottish red squiggles. The problem is the speed the Grey Squirrels are moving north. They carry a disease that they are immune to but kills red squirrels horribly.
Wtf I've seen a black fox in rainham u sure ?😂😂
I used to hear cookoos a lot in my local woods but haven't heard one for a long time,just disappeared...
Otters are about twice the size of pine martens and aren't as arboreal. They tend to stay near water. I've seen red squirrels in Dumfries and Galloway. Seen otters it Thetford Norfolk and tons and tons of badgers in Cambridgeshire. I now live in Corfu where we have a lot of Beech Martens. Very similar to the Pine martens. Not as reclusive here. I see them in the villages as well as the olive groves.
I live north of Inverness.
Been fortunate enough to see a wildcat, capercaillie plenty of pinemartins and red squirrels
I could go on and on 🙂
Near my house there is a black fox that walks around i have seen it 2 nights ago and the schools near keep talking about it.
Such a funny relationship... You two seem like you get annoyed with eachother.
Goshawks should have been on that list.
I have seen a few Red Squirrel. On Brownsea Island. I would agree Water Voles are not rare i see them quite alot when i am out fishing.
I have heard Cuckoos never seen one.
I’ve seen red squirrels in the Lake District. They’re much more inquisitive animals than grey ones.
Early to mid 80s remember seeing the red squirrels in Handsworth Birmingham now nothing but greys
I was devastated to find out that cattle are on the verge of being wiped out. I ordered steak at a restaurant and the waitress told me is was rare.😢 I struggled to finish it knowing i was compliant in their extinction 😞
I have seen a red squirrel in the Lake District. They can be found there as well.
I’m with you Cookie. People confusing, probably on purpose for attention grabbing reasons, declining and rare.
Contradictory comments by the commentary it is classified as rare shut up
Just watched your video about rare species very good but you do mention invasive species at least 2 . Just gave me the thought have you ever do a video about the top invasive species. Which ones have helped if any and which have done the most damage. Keep up good work
No.1 on that list should be humans 😂
Black Squirrel s will drive the red and gray Squirrel s away
Red squirrels are rare compared to invasive greys so they are rare.!!😅
As Pine Martins move south Greys disappear as they're not used to be predated.
Ummmmm, you might want to look up the meaning of ‘predated’.
@@ArthurTanner-d7s
Predate
/priːˈdeɪt/
verb
past tense: predated; past participle: predated
(of an animal) act as a predator of; catch and eat (prey).
There is a black fox that lives near me. He has some red in him too no white from what I could see
Black wild rabbit's are rare only seen 2 in the lasr 30 year's
i've seen loads of those. they taste awful. 3/10.
There are no grey squirrels there all red they just get older
Minks and pine martens are weasel family
I can honestly say, I’ve never seen any of these animals
Is a black fox not a silver fox?
I've seen Red Squirrels in the wild.
I've seen a black blackbird.
Nice bit of argy bargy on the niceties of 'rare'. 😂
I once applied for a part time position at a well known Eco related charity in Auckland and because I challenged the interviewee on the rarity of the NZ native pigeon a bit I didn't get the job.
Problem was I had seen a number of them regularly where I lived in the city and also a large no of Native Pigeons in Titirangi when I went on a bush walk in the Waitakere ranges.
Many people see nothing in the NZ bush because they stomp through it thinking they don't have to keep still or quiet to see most Native wildlife.
I just walk off the track a bit ( always within line of sight though as even the Waitakeres have cases of people bring lost forever or falling off bluffs in the often thick rainforest) . If you just sit down and shut up & keep still birds will appear. Normally all you will see close up on a fast tramp/ hike are pied fantails which follow people around for the insects their feet throw up. Or the odd tui which are also fairly common in gardens anyway.
(The interviewer was a nationally famous conservation activist)
Now I'm in a much more rural area I haven't seen a native pigeon for over 10 yrs. So- Who was right?
Debatable isn't it?
Animals can often be locally common but nationally rare. Or just very cryptic/well hidden.
ThOsE aReN’t rArE
Sensible humans are rare
Capercaillie ???
Rock lizards are rare
I recently moved to a town near the outskirts of London. During an exploration of one of the local nature reserves, I was shocked to see a number of wild rabbits. This led me to wonder if this area was also home to badgers. Having never encountered a badger, my next thought was, "Are badgers dangerous?" I didn't have the answer, so I decided to make a swift return to my house just in case. I think it's fair to say that many Londoners have very little exposure to British wildlife.
The black fox is super common tho amoung "Silver Foxes", the 'domestic' fox breed which is just a captive bred red fox with different coat colours. There's SO many being kept privately and in petting farms/zoos that do get out a lot, so that claim by the metro is even more silly...
Saw several Red Squirrels in one day in the Lake District, and we were just driving.....
I'm sure I've seen a black fox and a white squirrel before in Aberdeen. I also saw a pine marten in the city centre too. I think it came in on the bin lorry that's usually near the woodland on the outskirts of the city
Cuckoo’s and water voles are definitely not common. Especially where I live in Scotland. I haven’t heard a cuckoo in decades were I used to hear em almost daily during summer in the exact same place. Does uncommon automatically mean rare? I’ll leave that for you guys to decide however Cookie you seem to be only looking at it from the point of view of your area which is a great place for wildlife. If you take the whole of the UK into account and work out how many sightings in the whole of the UK they may well be considered rare.
There's a colony of Pine Martins discovered in Shropshire, there's no record of reintroduction.
You should come to Scotland and stay in the loch awe cabins and film the pine marten there are a few breeding pairs in the park that feed from the squirrel feeders, lots of red squirrels too ❤
I've seen quite a few pine-martens here in Culbin Forest over the years, and always in daylight. Also to be seen in Assynt.
red squirrels also souly habitat a small in land island cut off by a wide stream, near Liverpool i believe.. as the stream cuts off greys getting to that area
&.. #sasquatchlives 😎
There's definitely pine martins on the island aswell as near aviemore awfully cute little things
Yeah I live in the north east of Scotland and my local woods in full of red squirrels
sour black panthers does more of them the black foxes trust me just cause you ain't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist
I have spent a lot of time out at night over about 35 years and never seen a badger but have seen 3 big black cats
you know how to get rid of the grey squirrels get a feeder get an air rifle and do your bit become a red squirrel Ranger grey squirrels are good eating
Maybe the article means these animals are “rarely seen” in England or the UK.
Black squirrels are not native to this country - very rare and near Woburn
You missed natterjack toad
No I seen 2 im less than 15 years old
16000 pairs is rare for an entire species in the entire UK. You've annoyed me with your silly insistent attitude.
Not having it
It's not for a mammal or bird, there's way more species with less populations that aren't on this list that are seen regularly, like buzzards for example
@@WildlifeWithCookie unfortunately for you that's pretty irrelevant. I get what you're saying "not rare, not rare" I think your video was more about endangered species than "rare". Plus "not having it" is an extremely poor argument if you ask me
surely seeing or not seeing an animal has little to do with its rarity.
I'm 49 years old, never seen a red squirrel. Rare???
Thank you. Subbed.
Best wishes.
Go to the Brecon beacons in Wales, you find them
Wild cats are bigger than house cats.
I've also seen sea eagles in the west coast of Scotland
Loving the mossy earth mention
Sand lizards are in Southport :)
There are sand lizards on shell Island in Wales
I sensed a little bit of hostility
Bears are rare. We only got Paddington. Not sure if Rupert is about, he was an albino as well. 😢
Jokes aside, would live bears to be reintroduced.
By the way, I saw black fox
Water voles in my area and can be seen easily
It is indeed “doff” Cookie.
Hi I am a big fan
P r o m o S M
Smooth snakes are legless lizards not snakes
Absolutely not. Smooth snake is a snake in the family Colubridae 😅 colubrids are like one of the biggest snake families species-wise.
Although, all snakes you could say are legless lizards as they’re still in the Squamata (lizard) order.
@@albytross8681 so why is the smooth snake's face reminence of a lizard and not that of a snake. Legless 🦎
@@daevanpatel4207 you’ve gotta be thinking of something else. Google smooth snake. They don’t have eyelids or ear holes. Legless lizards have eyelids and ear holes. Smooth snakes look like every other old world colubrid
@@albytross8681 you are right. I was talking about a completely different species the Slow Worm which is a native of the United Kingdom 😊. I apologise for the ignorance of my thinking. 🤔😂😂😂
@@daevanpatel4207 I figured it had to be something like that 🤣 I was trying to figure out if there’s some anatomical trait of smooth snakes that make them look like legless lizards or something
Red squirrels are on the isle of white
That is the other side of the beach I always go to
Just before watching this video i had a poop which was 89 percent water
@@nedkelly5866 looked at it, felt it then gave a educated guess
Am having a poo while watching. It's water content is higher than 89%.
shot plenty of black foxes in my time
Why.
‘Black foxes’ are silver foxes that were released/escaped from fur farms. And are now interbreeding with our red foxes.
Cuckoo’s are rare rare 🤡shoes 🙁
Cookies a balloon 🤡😱
Most animal species are rare and getting rarer in the UK because they are threatened by foreign migrants. Hahaha.
