Of course he thought eels came from rainwater and mud. If they bury themselves in mud during a dry spell they would come out when the dirt became mud due to rainwater. He probably watched an eel unearth itself while it was raining and his problem was solved.
Right? Legit, the rainwater-and-mud hypothesis would have been explicitly supported by observational evidence, at least. If a society has no previous tradition of scientific enquiry, they have to start somewhere.
@@angerberd7829 of course. Otherwise I wouldn't have said not to ask them. Truly strange creatures. That's the kind of things I expect in Alien movies. Not human looking bipeds.
When I was a kid my dad's friend had a huge aquarium filled with stuff. We went camping once and he caught a handful of baby eels for his tank. Soon after all his fish started acting funny, dying, etc. It turned out to be from the baby eels. I remember one fish swimming sideways so the guy "put it down" and opened it up to see if there were any obvious reasons. A live baby eel popped out. His fish were eating them and they were eating their way back out. Eels man... Eels.
Possibly. Nobody knows how big they can be. In my country we have legends of giant eels. Stories from my elders about encountering them and we even have evidence in a museum of giant eels. I heard a story of my uncle had found a giant eel and he thought it was a log till it moved while he was trying to move it.
For my 5th grade science project about eels and I got a 50/100 because I couldn't find out where they came from, or how they reproduced in any book. I cried because the teacher thought I was very lazy
Eels burry themselves in mud when a pond dries up. Rains come and eels arise out of the mud. I would think that that plus the lack might lead an observer to jump to an eelogical assumption.
So Freud thought he would be the first man to discover eel balls, then quit after dissecting 400 because of emotional fatigue. Seems sane and rational enough.
This just shows how big the ocean is and how much we haven’t explored, the fact we were able to narrow it down so much yet we still can’t find their breeding grounds is scary. There’s so much about some sea animals that we don’t know about and it’s kind of scary.
We actually do know the breeding grounds. If I'm not mistaken they attached a gps to an eel. The sargasso is where they breed and larvae was found there way back in 1920. We also know how they breed because they were breed in captivity with the aid of hormones to sexually mature them and closely studied afterwards. This was done in the 90s
Wait you’re telling me that he was hanging around a dried pond and when the rain came and the eels came out of hibernation, he was crazy for saying that eels were born that way?????
It turns out that eels have a migration rout that takes them to the Saragossa sea. They use the salinity in the water to find this place and this is where they meet. They have found the larva of baby eels and tracked the adults to this location. Meaning, the female will dump the eels and the males comes by to fertilize the eggs….this was discovered a year ago…you’re welcome..
@@momokolove eels are born in salt water. The ones in lakes were too but move into lakes from stream systems. These are called catadromous eels. You’ll only find a lake dwelling eel if there is some stream system upriver to it. So if it’s damned off, no eels…
TLDW: We now know that Eels develop testes based on environmental cues (and are agender at birth), explaining why Eels taken out of the water are very unlikely to have testes. This also why Freud only found one devloping male out of all the hundreds of Eels he dissected.

@@anthonyacuna5507 sadly global warming has stopped that 😢 if we cared for the environment eels would make it to their final form, we'll never get to see an eel in its final form unfortunately
the difference between an old crazy guy and the "founding father of modern science" is just if people remember the shit you were right on or your other... usually more entertaining ideas
I imagine those are just the theories that stand the test of time. The shit that was almost a magically correct educated guess, and the ideas so dumb that mellinia later we are still giving them shit for it.
What if the baby eels leave empty eggs around, that can be recycled when comes into contact with some adult eel parts? Kinda like jellyfish do, just a tad more complicated. How do the males know how and when to spread said adult stuff? Maybe similar on how frogs can navigate to their birthplace.
@English person the point of the video is that eels still are largely a mystery, and that exactly how they reproduce still hasn't been documented. they don't know how they are migrating either at such young hatchlings. They just know, that they do actually have balls that develop once they migrate back to the seagarssa ocean, and once they live that specific area, their balls glands dissapear again.. thats why, if you want to find an eel with balls, you have to go to the seagarssa ocean. we don't know how they mate, the habits and behavior of them, their reproductive lifecycles down to a specific, theirs more work to be done to understand the eels.
@@anulfolantigua6291 lol sorry you suck at talking to girls. Not their fault, its yours. If a girl you arent interested in flirts with you, you have the right to say no, why dont women? Get therapy you cant habdle your problems effectively
I'm thinking parent eels mate somewhere close to shore and the eggs, much like the trash in the atlantic, get swept up in ocean currents, end up in the Sargasso, where the eels hatch. This gives explanation to the absurd distance of that 2 way trip and how nobody has seen adult eels in the sargasso
The thing about "killer whales aren't whales, they're dolphins" is that dolphins are arbitrarily categorized toothed whales. One species of dolphin isn't necessarily more closely related to another dolphin than it is to, say, a porpoise or a pilot whale
Absolutely. If you take the cladistic approach all the way to its logical conclusion, then mammals are also technically fish. Cladistics is great for classification and evolutionary research, but when it comes to common-language terms like "bird" and "whale" and "fish", maybe we should just let them be defined by common usage rather than trying to science them up after the fact. Botanists seem quite happy to let lay people call strawberries, blackberries and mulberries "berries" without getting all pedantic about how none of those are berries in the botanical sense whereas tomatoes, bananas, and watermelons are. (Also, you never hear anybody grizzling that starfish and jellyfish aren't really fish. Which further demonstrates how arbitrary these arguments usually are.)
@@neondennon nah because all birds share a specific common ancestor that nothing else shares. Dolphins don't have one common ancestor that isn't shared by things like beluga whales, porpoises, narwhals. There's an evolutionary branch of "toothed whales except for the sperm whale" and dolphins are spread throughout the branch

2 Freud probably learned psychology to try save his mind after the eels traumatized the poor man
3 Eels unknowingly tortured multiple men of science and really brought out the crazy obsessiveness of humans

Those ancient “scientists” really had scary accurate theories or just bat shit crazy things
the difference between an old crazy guy and the "founding father of modern science" is just if people remember the shit you were right on or your other... usually more entertaining ideas
I imagine those are just the theories that stand the test of time. The shit that was almost a magically correct educated guess, and the ideas so dumb that mellinia later we are still giving them shit for it.

What if the baby eels leave empty eggs around, that can be recycled when comes into contact with some adult eel parts?
Kinda like jellyfish do, just a tad more complicated.
How do the males know how and when to spread said adult stuff? Maybe similar on how frogs can navigate to their birthplace.

I can, its the slime.
@English person sit this one down. Your kind thought eels came from a horses tail
@English person nah I was just messing around. I'm not american and the gag was after your username.
@English person the point of the video is that eels still are largely a mystery, and that exactly how they reproduce still hasn't been documented.
they don't know how they are migrating either at such young hatchlings.
They just know, that they do actually have balls that develop once they migrate back to the seagarssa ocean, and once they live that specific area, their balls glands dissapear again.. thats why, if you want to find an eel with balls, you have to go to the seagarssa ocean. we don't know how they mate, the habits and behavior of them, their reproductive lifecycles down to a specific, theirs more work to be done to understand the eels.

I'm thinking parent eels mate somewhere close to shore and the eggs, much like the trash in the atlantic, get swept up in ocean currents, end up in the Sargasso, where the eels hatch. This gives explanation to the absurd distance of that 2 way trip and how nobody has seen adult eels in the sargasso
Sam O'Nella found out how they do it and they got him. That's why he is missing for so long
“Satan is not a pogostick” just popped in my head

The thing about "killer whales aren't whales, they're dolphins" is that dolphins are arbitrarily categorized toothed whales. One species of dolphin isn't necessarily more closely related to another dolphin than it is to, say, a porpoise or a pilot whale
Absolutely. If you take the cladistic approach all the way to its logical conclusion, then mammals are also technically fish. Cladistics is great for classification and evolutionary research, but when it comes to common-language terms like "bird" and "whale" and "fish", maybe we should just let them be defined by common usage rather than trying to science them up after the fact. Botanists seem quite happy to let lay people call strawberries, blackberries and mulberries "berries" without getting all pedantic about how none of those are berries in the botanical sense whereas tomatoes, bananas, and watermelons are.
(Also, you never hear anybody grizzling that starfish and jellyfish aren't really fish. Which further demonstrates how arbitrary these arguments usually are.)
@@rhonafenwick5643 life is very messy and doesn't like to fit nearly into the limitations of our language
Maybe the difference is more like beaks are on birds
@@neondennon nah because all birds share a specific common ancestor that nothing else shares.
Dolphins don't have one common ancestor that isn't shared by things like beluga whales, porpoises, narwhals.
There's an evolutionary branch of "toothed whales except for the sperm whale" and dolphins are spread throughout the branch
100% convinced that thoughty2 came up with "sexual eeling" and then just built a video around that
It's crap like this that makes is halarious that people think we went to the moon and we live stream in real time from Mars when I can't even get cell service in North Carolina.

And bites off your snout
That's a Moray.....

Atsa.

I’m confused, he said the debate about reproductive organs “had been put to bed” but doesn’t give an example of someone seeing or discovering them… did I miss something?
I understand that it makes sense with what we know but that’s not objective evidence.
@@jasoncoffee I can't actually seem to find any information on who observed it or when the development was witnessed at all. My information gathering skills probably aren't the greatest but I can find into on everything eel related we know and when we learned it, everything other than who and when all i can get is that "it happened". Bit odd indeed.
Eels "create and destroy" their reproductive systems based on environment so when not near a mate they are unlikely to have those characteristics

@@joelle4226 In the book they come across a super computer. The computer asks them what the meaning of life is. The answer was 42. It comes across as funny especially in the film. Its also kind of a clever way to refer to knowledge.
The way I see it is, everytime a human has a nightmare an eel of some kind comes slithering out of a random crevice in the ocean
This is such a great example of why grouping animals based on morphological characteristics is inadequate for phylogenetic organization.
