The *anxiety* when Emily and Ed were just casually walking on a freshly frozen lake
Yeeeeah I saw her standing on the lake and I'm oooh that could've ended badly
Was low-key waiting for Emily to plunge through the ice xD
I was just Jelaus they actually HAVE a Frozen Lake. I am from Nothern Germany. We didn't have Snow this Year
That ice had minimal chance of breaking (to the point of them completely falling in) given how thick it appears. When given the chance, people in Minnesota like to skate on the "wild ice" of frozen lakes. In fact I guess this year was particularly good in conditions to do exactly that.
Especially at 6:19 when you see the ice cracking underneath their feet.
"just chillin'" "the coolest thing I've done"... The unintentional puns were thick in this one.
Took me a while to get it
Arnold Schwarzenegger would be proud
🤭😉
I have a feeling all the puns are very intentional...
😂
Love how alligators show their snoots for booping
Hehe... Wanna play a game of boop the alligator?! 😂

"If a turtle loses its shell, is it homeless or naked?"
Emily taught me that the correct answer is dead 👀
And is missing their most important bone
It's spineless
Broooo I’m dead
@@paigecoleman1628 so is the turtle lol
Yeahhhh.........
As a person from Wisconsin, that clip of the ice cracking as you walked scared me soooo bad 😂 my heart sunk a little
As a person from North Carolina, where pond ice almost NEVER gets safe to walk on, I was petrified!
Thankfully the water doesn't look very deep, it'd still be very cold to get drenched tho ❄️
A friend and I fell through the ice on a small pond when we were about 10. It was the very coldest I've ever been.
@@SueChicago Saaaaammmmme. I literally did so alone because I was like 8 at the time and I was a very foolish kid. I could swim, but I couldn’t get a hold of the ice. My parents found like 5 minutes later and I nearly got hypothermia due me having a genetic hot and cold indifference. It basically means that while I can process coldness and heat, I can’t feel it. I can’t warm up using artificial heat or cool off in it either. I need the temperature to change outside or I could get hypothermia or heatstroke.
@@rosejin3429 How can you not warm up using artificial heat?
Emily: we are going to be going herping for turtles
Cranky turtles: what are u doing in my LAKE
(Shrek reference)
Doesn’t roll off the tongue as well tho
@@paigecoleman1628 true
Alternative title : finding squirtles in the middle of January
In the widdle of minter
Yeah
Its January actually
@@odilebartlett8191 the ice looks to be about 4 inches thick, so not thin at all

Mom: Do something productive
Snake Discovery Uploads
Me: THIS IS PRODUCTIVE!!
Well..you are learning
Snapper: minding their business
Emily: *in a muffled voice through the ice* 1:33
OMG, this is the coolest video ever! I knew about turtles breaking through their butts, but I didn't know about them being able to survive in anaerobic environments and their ability to break down lactic acid!!!!
I just checked if they posted and as I closed the channel I got the notification lol
IKR
Lol same
The video says 16 min ago, but your comment says 17🤣
Ha ha!!
“They breathe through a whole different way”
“THEY BREATHE THROUGH THEIR BUTTS”
“I was going to save that.”
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think she said "I was gonna say that" not save that
She was going to save it for later dummy
@@skylarbrown42 no she said save
@@skylarbrown42 i think she said save not say
@@AnonymousEquestrian doesn’t “say” make more sense in that sentence??
Never in my life have I been more excited to learn things.
Thanks snake discovery.
Next do the frogs. You know the "I'm going to become ice now thing. That would be fun."
Commenting to boost this because the frozen frogs are amazing and I'd love to hear Emily talk about how they do it.
I now also require a frogcycle video.
Yes.
Yes!!
Boosting this also
Froggo's are great :D
I didn’t know turtles hibernate. Ya learn something new every day
Wait what did you think they did?
@@The_Geni idk I thought they just did like they always do. I know basically nothing about reptiles 😅
@@si-gi-gi5174 that's what Emily and Ed are here for! An Ed-ucation 😊
Well they sure don't fly South...
Haha just messin' with ya.
teacher: Now children today we will be learning about chloaceal resperation
Student: what's that?
Teacher: fancy words for butt breathing
Student: yay!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I have given that exact lesson many times!
I used to lead field trips at a local pond. I also got to use a beaver puppets. It was a great job!
School don't teach cool stuff
You’ve made me want to get my first snake I got a ball python from my husband on Christmas 🥺
Lucky!
@Ella Vollmayer cute!
Your husband needs to have a discussion with mine so I can get one also. But apparently we "have no room" and yet he constantly discussed a bigger fish tank 😂
@@jordannahgalea9506 lol we live in a small apartment and this man wants ontop of a dog and snake an ant farm fish mice and hamsters like LOL NO WE DONT HAVE ROOM
Aww wow that's so cool!
1:48-Everyone look at how big this snapping turtle is!
Me: Aw there's a painted turtle too!
He looks so cutely
I thought i was the only one who noticed!
Only after a while of watching did I realize just HOW thick that layer of ice was, cause I swear I was having heart palpitations watching y'all walk across that ice! I had no idea the ice could get SO thick! That's crazy! VERY cool video! I had NO idea how they'd survive, under the ice the whole winter long! Thank you so much for always being so informative! Lots of love from GA!
“We are here on a local lake that has recently frozen over”

Perfect timing just clocked out for my lunch break!!
Same!

I LOVE THAT MOVIE
snake discovery: uploads

Wait...what are you doing out of Minecraft?
AAAAAA-
VILLIGAR NEWS
Villiager i hate u u dont give fair tradesss
Incredible footage! Really neat to see the actual turtles under the ice. So many amazing adaptations that turtles have!!!
Turtle POV: just keep swimming just keep-- wait, what the heck! Jesus is that you? Walk on water over someone else's head
This needs more likes 😂
Emily - the "mom" in me feels the need to remind you: Put on some form of boots with tread, so you don't slip on the freakin' ice! Love you guys and don't want you cracking your head or backside on that hard, cold surface.
For anyone who wants to try this after watching PLEASE test the ice in your area SAFELY FIRST, BEFORE walking on ice and NEVER go alone! Unlike turtles we can't live in cold water nor breathe through our butts, so safety first! ♥
Seeing wild turtles brumating through a sheet of ice is one of the coolest things I’ve seen! Thank you for this video, I really needed to see cool turtles resting after a crazy day.
PS: Your hat looks like there’s sushi on it & it’s honestly really cute 😊
They reused the clip at 1:50 in the highlights reel at 6:48, with the caption "Can you identify both species?"
I saw so many people saying Emily missed a turtle, but no! She was testing us. 😊
Ohhhh I saw it thanks I didnt know 😊
Did anyone else notice at 1:48 when she was on the snapper that there was a smaller turtle right in front of it?
Yeah I saw it😉
Yep
Hiiii I love your vids so muchhh!! You take such good care of your animals! Thank you for teacher people all over about these fascinating animals! Again, love your vids!
Amazing you guys have made the time to do great videos like this with all the work you are doing at your facility. Thank you!)
“does that make me a shellebrity?”
me: wow. ok. nice pun Emily!
I remember growing up in upstate NY and discovering this completely by accident one winter as a kid. The ice at the pond near my house had frozen thick enough to walk on with no snow on it, and I walked over to a rocky shallow area where it was very common to see painted and snapping turtles basking in warmer months. Sure enough, there was a whole group of BIG snapping turtles under the ice, just sitting there, and even a couple painted turtles moving around, surprisingly active like you saw.
Love your channel you guys got me interested in exotic reptiles and now I have a red-footed tortoise and I'm planning on breeding lots of different species of geckos
Thank you Emily and Ed for teaching me how (some types) turtles hibernate! I already did know turtles hibernated(being an animal nerd) but, never know how. Thank you so much or educating 10000's of people learn every-time you post a video! Thank you so much!!!
I love that Emily gets mad when Ed says "it's through their butts" She really wanted to say that XD
Edit: OMG WHAT THE HECK HOW DID I GET THIS MANY LIKES?? if only that was my sub count jk BUT SERIOUSLY THANK YALL WOW!!
Edit 2: GUYS OMG WOW how am i getting this many likes on this comment this is the most I've ever had
I would be too!😂
@@SerialAnkleBiter XD same haha
That was funny
Yeah
@@cheyannebevers9642 Thanks!!
Emily: posts
me: drops everything
also love the green/blue hair Emily!
Omg I went through all the comments trying to figure out why nobody was saying how cool Emily’s hair is. Glas I’m not the only one who noticed it :)
When the ice started cracking, my heart definitely stopped-
I literally never comment, and I'm sorry, but, i need to say that you guys are amazing. Not only that, but extremely informative.
SO many people do not know how to properly care for the pets they own, and i appreciate you helping them learn with the proper information.
Thank you. 💚
In my neighborhood my house has the biggest pond so we kinda become the turtle sanctuary and I have always wondered what that do in the winter, this is really interesting...can they tell when your ice skating?
They can definitely tell, have you ever been in the bath underwater and ran your nail over the bathtub
Sounds wack 😁
This is such an awesome educational video! Thank you, Emily and Ed 😊
She's walking on ice and says " I don't want to stomp, cuz I don't want to scare them."
This is so cool!
I am 32, always loved animal documentaries and nature shows, etc and I've never seen anything like this so thank you so much!!
"Gotta breathe through your butt!" - Ed's quote of the day
i love how informational the videos Emily and Ed create but they’re still really fun so you don’t lose interest 😁😁

Logic at its finest!
hope u n ed are nice n warm now..thank you so much for taking us along ur amazing adventures..
1:48 i can’t be the only one to have seen the little turtle right next to the big snapper right?
Wow I'm 54 and you learn something new every day I never knew that about Turtles thank you Happy New year Guys xxx
1:48 If you look next to him I actually think I see a painted turtle I don’t know if you guys saw that but look right next to his head
Those frozen bubbles are so cool.
Also love the hair Emily!
1:48 There's another turtle right next to the snapper! I think it's a red eared slider but I'm not really into turtles.
Good eye!
I seriously hope that's not a red eared slider.
@@EclecticallyEccentric They were invasive weren't they?
Its a painted
@@notabot756 Again I'm really not that into turtles.
Ty for putting in your time and determination to bring us these videos. I never would of guessed that took 3 days.
it may be called cloacal respiration, but butt breathing just has a better ring to it 😂
I have a red eared slider that lives outside all year and I knew moast of this but it shocked me how long some of the other turtles can be under the water without air!
We learned this in our Science lessons, this year, and “butt breather” has become a normal term around our home. 🤣🤣🤣
This is one of the coolest things I have ever seen. I have seen them dig into the mud to brumate but not under the ice. Being from Ontario, Canada I may have to look in my pond not just around it.
1:48 there are 2 turtles there. Look closely.
Now I wanna find a frozen lake in the middle of summer in a tropical country just because that looks beautiful!!
Nice shots 😍
Lots of love from Brazil 💜💜
When your facility opens i am takeing my daughter here she loves u and has a albino pastel ball python
oh man that sounds soooo pretty
Yeah it does
Emily and Ed, I LOVE your channel and for the longest time I thought that there was only things like king cobras bu then I started to watch your channel and it opened the gates to the world of reptiles for me.I was always an animal lover and you told me facts that also made my mom who used to be afraid of snakes not be afraid of them anymore. I hope your channel grows to tell people about awesome reptiles all around the world. Please keep moving and I hope doing this is what you love. I always wished one day that I could be like you. :)
I said moving in the second to last sentence I meant going
I’ve never been this early to a video, I guess being sick and having nothing else to do does that to a person lol
I'm so jealous of where you live! That's a perfect site to go ice skating!
(I'm Dutch, we haven't had a decent cold winter in years, and I miss ice skating :') )
Emily and Ed walking on a frozen lake and I'm having to run the AC.....
The proximity to Canada gives them a cold resistance buff, obviously.
"Shellebrity" LMAO good one xD
This is some of the neatest footage of turtles that I have ever seen! Thank you so much!! 😄
"Danger, thin ice"
Hummm >_>'
Dear Emily and Ed
I really like your videos and trough your videos i Lost the fear of snakes and other reptiles and started getting intrest in them and i learnd many stuff about these animals .Love your vids and stay safe!
"they breathe through a whole different way"
"it's through their butts!"
then i suppose you could say it's a *hole* different way.....
yes bad pun i am aware
Ba Dum Chhhh
This is one of the best science videos ever. Congratulations.
no one:
my anxiety: imagine Emily fallkng through the ice and on a turtle
LOVE THE VIDEO!!!! I’m such a big fan of you guys. You are my FAVOURITE REPTILE RUclipsR!!!!!
"They brsth throght there buts" Ed that way emilys line
One of the coolest things I’ve ever watched! Also interesting facts regarding Turtles!
Looks like I’m hibernating for now
Watching cool videos while hibernating is goals
Lol yes
I've been watching your chanel for years and years and i am amazed at how you keep suprizing us with new informations all the time!!! I thought i knew plenty on turtle but i realised now that I didnt xD thanks Em and Ed!!
How do humans hibernate atleast 7 feet underground? Asking for a friend
Forever?
Dude... Are you ok?
They are so informative. I always learn something new on every post.

Informative, charming, entertaining, fascinating, delightful... par for the course for a Snake Discovery video. Thanks for all of the content you put out, thanks for everything you do in general
Yo that’s so cool! Btw I was early but I know no one cares
I know it's awesome
I’ve been watching you guys for months and I’m SO excited to learn you guys are also from Minnesota!!! Don’t know how I missed that?
I may not be super early but im not 7 years late. So hello people from years later, Hello, Finding this comment will give u good luck. :) bai
This is so cool! I feel like you all show all the nifty reptile info on RUclips.
Crazy vegans: “YOU’RE HURTING THEM BY STANDING ON THE ICE!!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬”
(Exaggeration, no offence to vegans. Just the crazy ones.)
Vegan teacher
The Void that’s who I was referencing, gj 🌝👏
Not going to lie, I live in WI and was anxious watching you walk on the ice! Didn’t want to see you go through!! I know you guys are safe, but it’s just crazy that the ice was that thick and clear!
this is really cool!! when they look under the ice, it doesn’t even look like there is water, just little pockets of air the turtles are under!
This looks so dangerous being out on the ice. I was scared for you guys! Our bodies of water don’t freeze like that in southern Oklahoma. Thank you for the amazing video 😍
The shots of the turtles under the ice are amazing
This is one of the coolest videos I’ve seen from you. I like the education of this video.
Awesome Info about Turtles I didn't know growing up! you make a an awesome wildlife teacher.. thank you
I love your animal channel because you love animals like I do and I just love every single one of them
I was a biology major but this blew my mind. I didn't learn about any of this. The footage is so cool, too!! Holy cow
Thanks for the info, I have a 500 gallon pond in the front yard. I live up in the mountains above los angeles but the pond freezes over in the winter. This summer we adopted stumpy, a turtle who had 3 of his legs chewed up by a predator. Originally, I only wanted frogs and fish in the pond but my wife fell in love with the turtle. Because of his injuries he can't climb out of the water so he has remained in the shallows. I hope he does ok this winter!
Hello! I'm new to this channel and so far, I love it so far!! Keep it up!
This was actually a really cool video. I never thought of turtles in the winter till this video.
i did a couple research projects on hypoxia/anoxia tolerance in fish for some of my classes and i kept seeing turtles when i was looking for sources, but since i was focusing on fish i never checked them out and always wondered why they included turtles in papers about underwater hypoxic zones... thanks for answering that question!
Great FOOTAGE! Love you guys!
