Have you ever noticed that Giant Anteaters do have panda legs before? It looks like a crooked panda sniffing the ground. Look closer, and you’ll see its thin snout, tiny eye, and one ear right above an astonishing panda-like leg. The illusion is caused by the colors of the anteater’s fur, as its black and white coat forms what looks like a panda’s eyes, ears, and nose.
I had, and that’s what drew my attention to this video. 🙂 I had suspected it’s to draw the attention of a predator away from the defenseless snout to the legs with strong defenses. Plus, it’s confusing to a predator to see an animal with two ‘heads’ when viewing from the side.
thoose Panda legs (bear face leg) do good idea to scared off the predators once the ant-eater head busy stuck at ant-hole during eating... but in reality Panda are dangerous , or do they ?
its even more amazing, since Giant ant eaters are found in Central and South America, and Panda's are not. a whole Ocean divides them, and the predators,lets not mention the things that eat ant eaters, then we might wonder how they know what a panda sniffing the ground looks like.
Did you know that Giant Anteater pups spend the first year of life riding on their mother's back? And hey, did you see the young one cruisin' around with its mom in our video? 🥰
Even Anteaters understand that one doesn't overexploit resources and should be sustainable. They don't eat all the termites so they can re-build and the anteaters can feast again. Makes me wonder why sustainability is such a hard concept for humans to grasp.
it's really not very hard to grasp... it's just that overexploitation has enriched some very greedy bastards who now use their ill-gotten wealth to bulldoze their way through regulators and activists.
Yes these animals are native to the cerrado a unique not so known eco region in central brasil similar to the African savanna. It sad cause the cerrado is being destroyed at a faster pace that some regions of the Amazon to make way for soy farms
Love anteaters, they are so unique and fascinating. Also, the baby riding on it's mothers back was too adorable! Top notch camera work too as usual, you guys have swiftly become my favorite RUclips channel!
Amazing video! I never knew that giant anteaters had the lowest body temperature of any mammal! The footage is incredible as always! Keep up the good work!
This channel, to me, is better than national geographic. Hell, even better than school. I've been in school my whole life. Still am. But I learn something here in 5 minutes or even less. Keep it up 👍🏾❤️ If I had the power I'd give you millions and millions of subscribers, but you'll get there one day. You deserve it. A very detailed summary.
The only information missing was the local name of the anteater, Tamandua, name inherited from the Tupi language of the native peoples of Brazil which today live at risk like many native Americans. It is also the name of a Genus of Anteaters.
But what's the name of the owner of this enchanting voice here on Terra Mater? Only her voice let alone the exceptional content , gives me the boost to watch Terra Mater again and again
"Allowing the termites to rebuild and repopulate"...🐜🐜 At least the anteaters have a consideration and care for other living things which they exploit...☘️🐜☘️ And about humans..... Do I have to say that..😏😏 Sad reality🖤🖤.
You should consider making the thumbnail more attractive so that more people clicks on the video. Else, the Title and the Content are always good at your channel.
2:45 Am I the only one afraid of a baby anteater introducing their 60cm long tongue in my ear while sleeping? (I guess it will be smaller for a baby, but still) 2:37
Except none of these animals are related, anteaters are more closely related to sloths, whilst armadillos, aardvarks, and pangolins all have their own orders.
We Brazilians know that these beautiful creatures are ones to be seen from distance. They're super dangerous, when you come here and see one, stay away.
@@lenafromterramater3690 They have claws attached on two incredible strong arms. People were actually killed by these creatures, some of these cases appeared in the local news... I strongly sugest to not underestimate the strength of these beautiful animals.

@@leongliyang6946 they have long canines and the bite force of a panda must be high since it eats bamboo I’m expecting 2000 psi -2500psi

I love this channel cause they talk about animals that aren't normally talked about. Thanks for another great video.

And hey, did you see the young one cruisin' around with its mom in our video? 🥰
yesss, they are soo cute. thanks for always putting up amazing content :)
0:10 it's so cute that they just ride their moms like that.
That is true...the strong bond between the mother an her baby is amazing 😍

Exactly!
We should start to learn from mother nature!

@Kunal Kashyap What a sad reality....🥺
@@alveolate Ya that's true...
it's easy to grasp but hard to implement
Despite everything that is happening here, it is nice to see Brazilian fauna featured in the channel!

Never would have guessed that giant anteaters have the lowest body temperature of any mammal.
You can always learn something new from our videos 😉
Why lowest temperature?
@@tim40gabby25 because they are the coolest mammals 😎
@@Envision_ ha.. but my question stands :)
Termites are great architects creating massive earth structures compared to their size.
They are indeed 🐜
@@lenafromterramater3690 Maybe a video on termites and their building skills?
This animal and its relatives are so interesting.
True that! 🤗

Glad we could help you out there 😉
I love how they don't overindulge in their meals so they can have future ones.
That is indeed really sustainable 😊🐜
so many cool interesting adaptations. Cute; at 2:45 youngster play-probing for termites in poor moms ear while she is trying to sleep.
They truly are amazing animals 😊🐜That is true...this little one is a hand full 😅

Wow your words mean a lot to us Tyler! Thank you so much 🥰
Are the anteaters immune to the Ants stings?
Sticking their tounge in an anthill wouldn't be very comfortable for most animals😆
The thumbnail was so perfect I thought there were 4 anteaters
Their fur really has a unique pattern 😅🤯

I never find Anteaters to be cute until this video. They're really adorable
They truly are 🥰🐜
I thought that the panda's knees were an evolutionary relic from the time when it ate bamboo.
Didn't expect it to be this wholesome!
We are happy to hear that you liked it 😊
i just want to say thank u //its rlly fun to watch these videos //new sub
question is answered at 3:32

Imagine your name being Anteater and you dont even eat ants
But they DO eat ants ans termites - that´s why they are called Anteaters 😉
Another outstanding video ❤️❤️❤️
Wow this means a lot to us - thank you Katuwal 😊
But what's the name of the owner of this enchanting voice here on Terra Mater? Only her voice let alone the exceptional content , gives me the boost to watch Terra Mater again and again
Anteater is hungry but not greedy
That is true...they really do think ahead of time 😉
The animal sure looks interesting and the behaviour of not eating the whole ant colony so it can repopulate is too damn good on the animals part
They really do have good thoughts on sustainability 😉🐜
Great work, keep it up guys!
I love your videos
Thank you so much for your kind words Nikola 😊
Another awesome Terra Matter,so that's awesome.
Also I wish y'all a good day.
Thank you so much for your kind words 😊 Good day to you too!
One notification from this channel can change my mood .
Hopefully into a super good mood 🤩
Great narration.
Ant Eater: "which brand do I want today"
"Allowing the termites to rebuild and repopulate"...🐜🐜
At least the anteaters have a consideration and care for other living things which they exploit...☘️🐜☘️
And about humans.....
Do I have to say that..😏😏
Sad reality🖤🖤.
Cool animal 😎
True that, they're pretty awesome! 😎
Thanks to this vedeo bcz I ever this animal before in vedeos a nice information nd l like animals.keep going
We are happy to hear that you liked it that much 😊
Nice ☺️
Glad to hear that 😊
Great lifestyle! Wouldn’t be to bad to be a giant anteater
Especially for the little one 😉
unique animal
They are indeed 🐜
VERY INTERESTING
Did you know the mascot for UCI is the giant anteater? Zot! 🦡⚡️🤏 And pandas 🐼are my favorite animal. This just killed 2 birds with a stone. 😆👍😜🙌⚡️❤️🤓😎
Can't imagine how long it takes for giant anteaters to be fed by thousands of soil insect.
Mess with termites but don't mess with ants unless that giant ant eater wants a little spicy chili in it's meal.
anteaters: okay, that's 3000 have a good day.
Panda Knees reminds me of the anteater video by Animalogic
Never realized Ant eaters are so dinosaur like
Never heard of this animal in my life
Well now you did 😊😉

Indeed 😊🐜🐼
Hello my name is Ade Arip, I’m from the trans7 trending program in indonesian. I want to ask permission to use videos on your youtube channel. Thanks
even ant eaters know about sustainability.
They really do 😊
I want that same ride 🤭😊
That really does look comfy 🐜😊
If you see 2 anteaters on a motorcycle in Brazil..you are doomed..
A large and cute anteaters with panda-like legs. A truly unique animal that needs protection from illegal hunting.
They are truly amazing animals 🐜
"Like cowboys they snatch the well armed soldier termites and slurp them up"

Anteaters eat 50% Ant 50% Soil
How do they know when they've had enough of one mound's population?. No way can they count that fast on those fingers..
My favorite South American animal! Sometimes I call it a Bug Wolf! 😊
Hi Jeffrey!
They are so cool!
Anteater's will slice open even the biggest of jaguars with their claws.
How has nobody made the joke about anteaters and their rights to bear arms yet!?
Pangolian, aramdrillo,ant bear, and aardvarks all have long tongues
Except none of these animals are related, anteaters are more closely related to sloths, whilst armadillos, aardvarks, and pangolins all have their own orders.
How do they defend themselves from predators?
Because they do
But did you know why? 🧐
@@lenafromterramater3690 because they do
Does sand disturb them in digestion?
Like gall stones In humans?
I see this story's on animal's planet but 😊 thanks
Glad to hear that you also watched our version of the story 😊
I wonder if the anteaters shout "GET OVER HERE" when pulling ants and termites 🤔
I don´t think so 😉🐜
That is hilarious!
Tl;dw: it's roughly the same reason skunks have that eye-catching black-and-white pattern, to warn predators
Those are wrists, not knees.
We Brazilians know that these beautiful creatures are ones to be seen from distance. They're super dangerous, when you come here and see one, stay away.
Fun fact, wilbur soot hates ant eaters
omg what's that 1:30
Hi @GiraffesEatStuff! That is the anteaters snout.
😊😊😊😊
How do the babies drink milk?!
Don’t the termites bite their tongue?
Hi Ellie!
They eat them realllyyyy fast
Why do pandas have giant anteaters knees on their bodys?
Very dangerous animal. It could kill you easily if youre not careful.
They are only feeding on ants and termites and they have no teeth 😊
Lmfao ur drunk
@@lenafromterramater3690 They have claws attached on two incredible strong arms. People were actually killed by these creatures, some of these cases appeared in the local news... I strongly sugest to not underestimate the strength of these beautiful animals.
panda? stop smoking what you are smoking
I see a sloth 🦥
I was wondering what the Ante-ater is.... Ante? is there Post-Ater? I thought it was some kinda latin word.
big huge nose
Because they come from Alabama?
Or because they're bound for Louisiana?
The ants must feel like in Attack on Titan
Эи тут русские есть!?
The explanation for the panda face was unimpressive. I thought it would be something much better than that.
