"Is that common?" Yes. A lot of zoos will raise baby cheetahs along side a puppy. They become best friends and the cheetah will pick up on some of the dogs mannerisms making them more docile and easier to keep in captivity. Before doing this, cheetahs in captivity would be extremely depressed, so having a friend to play with does wonders for their mental health too.
Had 2 friends while I was in school. 1, his family had some of everything at their house from goats to peacocks. At one point they had 2 baby lions.... actually lions, they were pretty chill until they were about a year old..... The other friend had a a pair of cheetahs that were deemed untrainable by a local magician. They lived outside in double walled chain link. My friends dad was the only one who could feed them, and would go into the cage one layer at a time locking the first door behind him.
They're also a nightmare for rehabers because by the time they recover from injuries, they're dang near domesticated and *can't* be returned to the wild. All of this makes me wonder if the cheetah we know today isn't really a "wild" animal but the descendants of domesticated Egyptian pets.
This man is a living thesaurus, his use of language makes his jokes soooo funny. Combined with his dry delivery, he's easily one of my favorite content creator lol
Ouch. I had multiple small kidney stones (small gravel size) and passing three was enough for me to chug lemonade like it was the only thirst quenching liquid left on earth. Lemonade dissolves them, if a doctor didn’t tell you that. It’s handy to have that knowledge in case it happens again. 😭
The female hyenas are the lucky ones. The life of a male hyena is no better and in many ways worse. The lowest ranking female hyena is higher on the social hierarchy than the number one male hyena. Among spotted hyenas the ladies rule and males are lucky to get the table scraps left behind.
@@sassyghost_8 Citric acid, lemonade is good, but take a few shots of straight lemon juice for added effect. Also, am I the only guy who experienced no dick pain from my kidney stones? The pain from my kidneys was astronomical, makes an abscess tooth look like a bounced funny bone, but my dick did not hurt.
Don't feel bad MrLBoyd. As someone who has had close encounters with many of the animals Casual Geographic goes over, I'm still a student in his videos. He just brings out some real treasure when it comes to information. ^.^
Even though octopi (Latin origins) is recognized and accepted, octopuses (Greek origins) is the correct and more widely used spelling - especially in formal writing and speech. Personally, I prefer octopi regardless lol
8:03 the main reason that they dont get much energy from plants is that sloths only eat the leafs of large trees, not the fruits of them, which gives the sloths next to no energy.

Sloths are also painfully stupid. Some of them have been known to mistake one of their own arms for branches, so when they're moving through the trees they'll grab their own arm, and then let go of the actual tree branch; at which point they plummet to their death.
My grandfather used to watch all the animal shows on PBS when I was a kid and helped foster my curiosity. I love these videos, but I honestly already know 99% of it…thanks Grandpa!
animals are extremely interesting, I've always been obsessed since childhood with researching animals and now i own around 30 pets consisting of lizards, birds, tarantulas, rats, snakes...you get the picture lmao

Idk why because I know nz is small and it’s birds are uncommon and strange but it always makes me laugh when someone says they’ve never heard of the Kiwi bird before. The bird that can’t bird is our national animal although if I had to choose a native bird that truly represents us I’d say it was the Kea. The kiwi is the only native Ratite left on NZ though, we used to have another ratite bigger than an ostrich or emu called the Moa but that’s been extinct for the past couple hundred years
Fun Fact: Kiwis grow on Vines. The fruit, not the bird... I planted some Red Kiwis this year. Surprisingly they can grow in cold climates... but they only grow to the size of big grapes.
Just a reminder, the selective pressures that work on variations in an organism really only apply up to breeding age. After breeding age any traits that would benefit an older individual really aren't selected for to pass on to new generations. That's why our bodies tend to fall apart as we get older as well. Genes that prevent bad backs when you're 50 for example never get selected for from a reproductive standpoint.
If you’re gonna start watching Casual Geographic, I would suggest watching his video about how to survive animal attacks, his video about honey badgers, and his video about what animals have black Air Force energy. They are some of the best!
There is a cryptid called the Mapinguari, a legendary creature supposedly living in the South American rainforest, which may be living Giant Sloths. These critters are definitely Sloths leveled up as they're still vegetarian, but rather than climb the trees they're knocked down. These brutes supposedly gnaw on the best leaves at the top of hte trees while everything else just avoids them because they're just too big to attack.
I would honestly love to see your reaction to the Weeknd’s House of Balloons mixtape. I always love seeing album reactions from analytical dudes like u so hopefully u do it bro been watching a lot of ur vids. U def gon get new subscribers and viewers as well !
15:28 Oh, now that is ironic. I noticed you've watched a few of these lately, and I was actually going to recommend TierZoo... But Casual Geographic sort of just recommended it in his own video, lol. I'll still recommend it though. TierZoo also uses comedy to dispense a lot of interesting facts about the animal kingdom, while framing it as if comparing and contrasting different video-game characters, class, play-styles, and patch notes. Trust me, it's more interesting than I probably just made it sound.
So, that theory about humans hunting the megafauna to extinction has a lot of holes. The competing theory is that they were wiped out during the comet impacts at the end of the Younger dryas. There are mammoth carcasses that have been recovered that have dislocated hips and broken legs as if they were hit by a shockwave, or wall of water. The supposed mass graves were likely what's called a "bloat and float". They are common in big floods, the carcasses float in the rushing water and all settle in a depression in the land. This creates a "graveyard".
I love these kind of videos because I always learn something new. I try to do two things a day, make someone smile and learn something new. At 71 I’m making my goals 👵🏼💜☮️
The plural for octopus is still hotly debated today, but most agree it's either octopi (Latin), octopodes (Greek) or the one we can all agree is the worst one, Octopuses (contemporary English.)
Idk if you've ever heard this but you remind me of that Book Reading Black Dude from "Harold and Kumar go to White Castle" where he was in a cell just reading a book because the cops falsely arrested him.
the giant pacific octopus is actually one of the most long lived of the family, and can make it to 5 years! impressive for an octopus. most of them are capping out around 1-3 years
@@joelcastro-reyes1667 thats the giant squid, the giant pacific octopus actually maxes out around 150 pounds! lots of seals, sharks, large fish, etc prey on them.
Hey guys, I think Mr. Boyd is a city kid; how 'bout you? I wish I could sit down with him and tell him my stories, especially the Alaska years. He would be such a great audience. He emotes his squick with his expressions so well. I do enjoy this kid, and I truly enjoy your reactions! Has anyone mentioned the platypus to you? 😳
Octopus usually don’t live more than 5 or so years for most species. It’s actually probably the best example of a species being screwed over by evolution. I don’t remember the exact source for this, but there is some evidence that octopus were such successful predators that overpredation would occur if they didn’t pass away, leading to starvation. So legit octopus were so good at existing that they overpopulated and starved out until they evolved to have shorter lifespans
No wonder hyenas seem to have such good sense of humor. As for those tooth hogs, I remember a time when cows had horns and some needed to be sawn off for not to grow into the cow's brain. We even have a saying for it that translates as 'horn crazy'.
Cheetahs get nailed hard. But in captivity but if given and bonding with an emotional support puppy while they are kittens themselves, they tend to become well functioning adult cats and capable of reproducing.
So something that makes evolution make sense for a lot of these animals, like the fiddler crab or peacock, is basically them being ballsy to attract mates. In a lot of animals the females are well camouflaged but the males are brightly colored. These 'defects' draw mates because they also draw predators. Being of mating age while also having some trait that makes survival harder is basically just advertising that they are tough enough to get by anyway so they have good genes.
I remember crying when I learned (most of..?) the moths have no mouth nor digestive system and just die few days later.. But I did learn now that about octupi.. damn..
The problem with Sloths is that they have evolved to eat leaves, only leaves, most herbivores also eat fruits and vegetables, and that is more than enough to sustain them. But sloths only have leaves, transitioning to carnivore seems a bit much
As an Aussie living in Hawaii, I hear the way you pronounce "emu" all the time. An "emu" the way you say it is a hole Hawaiians dig in the ground and cook in. The Aussie bird is pronounced "eem-you". Absolutely fany
its common to raise big cats that have been orphaned around dogs. the dogs teach how to live in a pack without the risk of them being killed by other cats in the pride

I love casual geographics narrative style. My favorites are how to survive an animal attack. And why moose are a national threat.
Casual Geographic has the most charismatic deadpan I've ever heard.
the horns growing through the head actually happens to cows sometimes. You have to cut off a few inches of the horn so it doesn't go into their head.

The longest living known octopus is the Northern Giant Pacific Octopus (Enteroctopus dofleini) who can survive between 3-5 years in the wild.
Happy to see this again with you, he's one of my favorites
I love his commentary!!! His delivery is epic!!!♥️♥️
