- Thank you for watching me, a humble American, react to these 50 amazing wild animal moments from Australia. This was entertaining, as always! Thanks for subscribing!
You think hearing roos is weird? Wait until you hear a koala for the first time 🤣🤣🤣
You relax in your camp spot at the end of the daylight and you hear screaming, sounds like someone is being murdered in the bush and then you realise it's Koala's mating. They rape the females, the males are nasty.
Especially when they’re fighting
Or mating 🤦♂️🙉
or possums they are pretty wild too
@@sambaulch4377 Yes Possums sound like the devil grunting but Koalas mating is like someone is being murdered. we had people going out with their spot light wondering what was going on when the Koalas were mating. they really thought someone was being attacked in the bush. but it was just the Koalas.
Tourists should learn about our animals and how to be around them, before approaching them. They will react to your behaviour. Stand still, let them come to you if they want, or not. Our native animals don’t see people as food, so they won’t attack you unless you make what they perceive to be a threat.
This is true. Most negative wild animal interactions that get filmed involve tourists - which includes Aussies on holiday in areas with wildlife they're not familiar with. Saltwater crocodiles however, they perceive just about everything made of meat that moves as food, thus they will attack without provocation.
Ryan thought that roos were friendly when a single kick from one can break your ribs and the dogs and kangaroo weren't playful wrestling the roo was probably trying to drown them in the water
Tourists, or every people, should learn this at a really young age. I've learned it when I was 3 or 4.😂
went to a sanctuary and punched all the roos i could, they loved it
My friend is an animal rescue officer and she had to rescue a wild joey from a crowd of 30 foreign tourists, they were so angry when she took it away it was their photo opportunity. I don't want to say what country they were from :(
Hi Ryan, people don't realise how dangerous kangaroos are. Their bottom legs are very powerful with large claws. They can rip you open. Don't fight with a kangaroo!
I would like to see a vegans shock to find I beat up a baby kangaroo by kicking it like a football
Those dogs were lucky. A 'roo can easily hold them down under water to drown them. I've seen it happen
@@aidan2849 ..fck stik
Roos are definitely street fighters.
@@aidan2849 We're not mad at you, Kangaroos drown dogs, they deserve to get kicked once in a while
That’s a kangaroo’s angry noise. Normally they just chirrup, like “tsk tsk tsk”. Which is very cute.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk"
"What's that Skip? Little Timmy is lost in a cave exactly 2.3 kilometres west of Goldrush Hill, just by the old fallen eucalyptus tree? Thanks, Skip!"
@@becp488 Now that was real television!
@@becp488 Grew up in Turramurra - drove through Ku-ring-gai Chase National park every day to get to Sydney. Lovely area - think Skippy was the only roo there though 😂
4:48 “aussies are usually the brave ones”
Notice how we have no trouble standing amongst crocodiles and kicking highly venomous snakes in the head but cower in fear to the real dangers that are kangaroos, koalas and magpies.
Real Aussies are now hard to find. Most of those in our country were either not born here, one of their parents weren't born here or one of their grand parents weren't born here. And most of them live in the middle of major cities, rarely venturing out more that mobile phone coverage. Those of us who are at least six or more generations would never be seen dead in some of these stupid situations depicted in these videos.
Animals don't scare me. It's the people that do.
@@petemedium2185 that is a completely ridiculous comment. Every single person that lives in this country has a family history of immigration. Our great country was built on the notion of immigration from people all over the world and of all cultures.
@@seanbyrne7919 You are completely missing my point. I have nothing against migrants, I'm referring to new arrivals who assume our history books are the truthful. And also, that the original culture that brought most migrants here in our recent past, is no longer here. They're A Weird Mob, or Bush Christmas are just two examples of how we were before the very huge influx of migrants after WWII.
Kicking a brown snake is just utterly stupid. I have stood back and verbally abused a brown for 15mins until it buggered off but there is no way I would deliberately put my limb closer to the damn thing!
Thank you! Your excitement is infectious! The “porcupine” is an echidna. It’s a monotreme: it’s a mammal that lays eggs but suckles its young. The platypus is the other monotreme. 😀
Yep, the Echidna is BY FAR my favourite Australian Animal!!!
I actually got to save a wild one from a few kids when I was young, and got to meet a few at Taronga zoo and those ones were sooo curious and friendly that they ran straight up to you to check you out!!!
Oh, and you can also pay them too!!!
They are sooo damn ADORABLE!!!
@@kelliewhyte_85 I just had one in my yard! I live on a property but we then have the acre block we consider the house’s “yard”. It was only small. I took photos and a video. I certainly wasn’t expecting that!
there was a third called the Tasmanian tiger or Thylacine, now extinct, hunted to extinction of course. ( Thylacene wasn't even in the computers dictionary)
The one that went after the kid was not a koala. It was a baby drop bear.
Few hoop Snakes around to.
Don't lie drop bears are white and much bigger.
🤣🤣
🤣🤣
Yes, 100% true. People who spread the lie that there are no Drop Bears in Australia have blood on their hands.
I feel really sad for the child attacked by the koala. The international tourists seem to think that kangaroos and koalas in the wild are friendly like pets, they are definitely not. These tourists learned a lesson, unfortunately for the child. Koalas are vicious little beasties in the wild, they do have nasty long teeth and claws, and are very strong.
I almost got attack by one but it saw that i wasn't scared and if i did have a go at me it would've of had to run so it stayed in the tree
I feel sad that a child being
attacked by a koala makes more headlines for the USA than the 1 billion native animals burnt alive while our former pm was in Hawaii.
@@baizlgaming most kangaroos are fairly tame... but not the alpha male he will mess you up if your on his territory
nah, he was attacked by a Drop bear mate
Ryan, it's pretty well known in rural parts of Australia that Kangaroos will sometimes literally jump right at cars if you're driving at night with the high beams on. They're known as 'kamikaze kangaroos', probably because they get stunned and disorientated by the extremely bright light. Not sure why they want to jump toward it, but there you go.
I imagine their fight or flight switch is constantly turned to fight.
not only that they have been known to take out cars and then get back up
Yeah, my car's at the panel beaters as we speak. Saw the female and joey, didn't see the buck. He was huge.
Yep it sure does happen..... ask my car
People who live around these animals usually have a good sense of when they may be dangerous.
Kangaroos are somewhat like deer in that they are road hazards, can sometimes be found wandering through towns and while not inherently dangerous, it is ill advised to approach them.
The dogs on that beach were Dingoes. A Dingo is a breed of wild dog. They are considered to be the same species as domestic dogs, but are comparable to coyotes or wolves.
Correction, genetic testing in recent years has proven that dingos are a completely different species of canis, further removed from domestic dogs than wolves are. Even without genetics, Dingos have very distinct and unique physical and behavioural differences which makes them easily identifiable from all other canis species if one knows what to look for.
Deer get stuck in headlights, Roos actively jump in front of them.
I had a pet dingo once. He was a very young pup when I got him from a Dogger (A government paid dingo trapper and killer) in a family which included three young children. Devil - the dingo pup's name - loved the children and other pets, which included several cats, two other dogs and a fox, Unfortunately he wandered off to a nearby busy road after he was fully grown and had lived with my family for about six years and was hit and killed by a passing car. I would love another dingo pup, but haven't been able to obtainb nanother.
@@grandmothergoose 👍👍👍
I love that the roo banging on the glass door gets the great Aussie reprimand... 'Oi, that'll do'. ☮️
Hi Ryan, Just so you won't keep confusing Kookaburras for Magpies. Magpies are black and white, Kookaburras don't usually hurt people.
Those birds surrounding that Lady are called Sulfur-crested Cockatoos (Cockies), some people keep them as pets and teach them to talk. There's a similar looking bird with pink and grey feathers called a Galah.
And there is a similar Aussie bird to the Cockatoos, but slightly smaller without the crest. It is a corella.
Cockatoos often take bark off trees and open up nuts and heavy duty seeds with their very strong beaks. Being bitten is no joke. In drought conditions they invade suburbs looking for food and water. They love stripping our mandarin tree of fruit, no matter if they are still very green.
Let's not forget the Major Mitchell Cockatoo (also known as the Leadbeater's Cockatoo) with its dark coral-pink and yellow crest and pale pink head and body and white wings. Although they are a physically smaller bird, they have just as big a personality as their sulphur crested cousin. We have a variety of cockatoo species, each of which is just as beautiful as each other... 🤩🇦🇺
@@petemedium2185 I currently have a few hundred outside on the road carrying on like pork chops...
Sulphur crested cockatoos, galahs and corellas are all types of cockatoo.
The "Dinosaur" thing is a Frilled Neck Lizard, related to the Water / Beareded Dragons, but the Jurassic Park dinosaur is a Dilophosaur, which they took liberties with adding a frill and one of the seriously mixed up sized Dinosaurs, but the odd one where they made it considerably smaller, rather than massively oversized. The Velociraptor was about turkey sized, rather than the Emu/Ostrich... the Dilophosaur was actually 9m (27') long, 2.4m (8') high, rather than the 4m (13'4") and 1.2m (4').
The owners of the dogs attacking kangaroos should be calling them off, not filming it. Disgusting!
Omg, I've been saying that everytime I see those videos! Actually I fast forward those videos, because It's cruel. The kangas are only defending themselves in their own environment. Poor things being in fear, and then they would shoot the kanga for hurting their dogs. 😢🤬
One of the videos only showed a part of the actual video. They were dogs from a neighbouring property and the people had tried calling and catching the bigger dog without success. It was videoed to show what happens when people let their dogs stray.
@@leandabee The small white dog and bigger one in the water was only part of the full video. They were neighbours dogs and had tried to stop it and was originally videoed to show the neighbours what their dogs did. It was then posted to show what happens when dogs wander off property and has been used now in countless RUclips videos. I thought the same until I watched the original.
Yes, that poor kangaroo was trying to defend itself from those dogs. Really cruel, the dog owners are behaving irresponsibility. Either way it could have been bad, the dogs could have pulled the Roo down or the Roo could have eviscerated the dogs. The person filming and letting their dogs behave like that deserved a serious kangaroo attack himself.
@@lynneperry7454 They were not their dogs and they filmed for evidence after attempting to catch and contain them. This video was originally shared to show the damage wandering dogs cause. Don't always judge a book by its cover unless you've read the whole story.
Fun fact: if you hear kookaburras in the morning you know rain is coming, if you hear them in the evening you know the next day will be fine. The saying is “kookies in the morning, sailors take warning. Kookies at night sailor’s delight.”
Wow!
I’m a 58 year old, born n bred Aussie, who’s lived in rural and semi-rural Australia most of my life… and I’ve never heard that saying!!!
I’m gobsmacked to say the least… where the hell have I been??
The only saying (re sailors) is:
Red sky at night, sailors delight… red sky in the morning, sailors warning!
I’ll definitely adopt the ‘kookies’ one from now on! 🤣 🤣 🤣
The Kookas around here had good laugh tonight and I usually hear them in the morning when I take the dog for a walk. They live in a tree 300 yards from my house.
The dinosaur looking thing is a frilled neck lizard 🦎
they used to be on the 2c coin ... when we had them.
If you want to see a REALLY big roo, look up Roger, a red roo. He's dead now but was huge and enormously strong. The grey roos are the Eastern Grey and get pretty big but the reds live further into the outback and are big animals. They are not afraid of people. The small friendly ones you see are often wallabies.
roger was just a standard alpha male. seen plenty in rural w.a with the females
The "boxing" kangaroos do is to try and grab onto you with their arms then they balance on their tails and kick you with their feet. They are trying to disembowel you!
That was the tassie devil growling. They sound bad, but a cat can kill one.
The magpie has a neat pointed beak like a jet plane, sleek, strong and they have killed human babies, they really hurt when they get you, usually from behind, with the power of high speed.
Koalas have teeth and big strong claws for climbing trees, they can try to climb you instead of a tree, if they are feeling unsafe.
The larger lizard at the end of the clip is a goanna, some are called lace monitors for their markings.
You know how serious Aussies take snakes when most schools are required to have a t least one staff member trained to catch and handle snakes. I learnt that a few years ago when I saw the vice principal catch a snake near the schools bus stop.
I would like to see a link to that. Knowing the difference between venemous and non venermous snakes I can accept, but trained to handle any snake, I find hard to believe.
I totally agree with Pete, pull the other one mate.
Speaking as an aussie who as a kid found a Death Adder under a lunch table in school grounds, reported it to the teachers and then spent the rest of the lunch break warning other kids to avoid the area... That's not true of NSW schools at least? Pretty sure most just call up an animal relocation specialist to drop by when they can and tell the teachers and kids to avoid the area the dangerous animal was seen in until its removed. Most snakes won't bother us unless we bother them, and we can usually avoid them easily enough.
Still that's a very cool vice principal there! Hope they relocated the snake to somewhere nice and safe for it
bear spray would be considered a prohibited weapon in australia.
Re the narrator character: it strikes me that if a wombat could actually talk, it wouldn't have an American accent 😅 As for the koala attacking the toddler, koalas are wild animals and will attack if threatened or provoked.
Koalas aren’t aggressive but curious, so if one gets close to a toddler, the toddler is likely to scream and that then appears to be a threat to any animal, which can change the mood. You didn’t see any attack it was just the family reacting to the toddler’s scream.
Dropbears are aggressive though, they were probably young ones that looked like koalas I reckon.
Yes koalas can be very aggressive, especially the males, and are usually covered in fleas & ticks & you can get rabbis from a bite, the toddler was lucky if he only got scratched!
@@lorraine1959 Hehe, you meant rabies, not rabbis. 😜👍🇦🇺
@@lorraine1959 No rabies in Australia. Yet
@@reddog5378 technology the bat lyssavirus is closely related to rabies.
Why would we have bear spray? We have no Bears. Also it is actually illegal to have pepper spray here. The truck crossing was a River not a lake.
Cahills Crossing. The other side is the entry to Arnhem Land.
Just wait until you hear the sound male koalas make.
The truck crossing crocodile infested waters was at Cahills crossing in Arnhem Land. This is a tidal river crossing and can only be crossed at low tide. If you miss the tide you just have to wait a few hours for the next low tide. I've been lucky enough to cross it and saw one idiot fishing there which is not uncommon despite the danger.
The dinosaur looking lizard is a Frill-necked lizard aka a “frilly”. These featured on the back of the Australian 2c coin which is no longer in circulation but minted uncirculated. The scientific name of the species is “Chlamidosaurus kingii” so yeah you could call it a kind of dinosaur.
They're so cute
The workman is aboriginal, he knows what to do and not to do around kangaroos.
A couple of years ago a fellow disappeared on Fraser Island, off the east coast of Brisbane, and it was assumed he was eaten by dingos so I wouldn't be treating them so casually as in the video. Also the aboriginals say the dongos take babies if not looked after. This happened at Ayres rock, in central Australia, many years ago. If a person was alone they would be in considerable danger.
Can't find anything relating to Dingoes and disappearances anywhere. I'm Yuin, Dingoes used to protect and stay with our babies and young children while we hunted. Dingoes are family to the First Nations people. Unless they are urban fringe dingo hybrids or have had human interference any wild dingo will be gone before you even see it. The only time a wild dingo will show aggressive behaviour is if you approach a den with pups, even then it will flee instead of defend if you continue.
The majority of the problems with regards to dingos and humans have come about on Fraser Island where the tourists are ignorant and feed the dingos and try to interact with them, which causes the dingos to lose their sense of caution around humans. Then along comes a family with an unsupervised child that provokes the dingos, or someone with food that refuses to feed them, and the dingos attack. Under normal circumstances of a human coming across a pack of dingos in the wild, the dingos would be cautious and prefer to avoid interaction. The lesson here is, if it's a wild animal, never try to feed it and leave it alone.
Ryan - we don’t have porcupines in Australia. We do have Echidnas which look somewhat similar but Echidnas are monotremes. Look that up.
I think he means egg laying mammals. The other monotremes is the platypus. Which when they took one Back to England to be stuffed they thought it was a hoax. Gee I think I spelt it right that time.
As you can see your very safe in Australia, nothing can kill you. 😃🤣😃
👍🤠
That Clip where the Kangaroo jumps on the car was worrying. We actually have very high pitched whistles that you can attach to your car that only Kangaroos can hear. They are supposed to keep them away from your car when you're driving in the outback. The last thing you want is to hit one at 100kmh and have it come through the windsheild glass everywhere with it kicking around.
The car lights temporarily blind them, they get disoriented and try to jump over the lights, not realising a car is behind them. Kangaroos cause big repair bills and often die, people need to take caution approaching a wounded roo, it may revive suddenly, the claws on their back legs can rip you open. If a dead female has a baby in her pouch, it can be rescued if already off the nipple, do not feed it cows milk, hand it in to a vet, they can get it to wildlife carers. If a tiny baby, it stays attached firmly to her teat, pulling it off will kill it, better to get the wildlife services to come.
I had that happen to me. Fortunately I was only travelling about 20 kph and the roo was hopping along side of the front of the car when he decided to take a right turn and landed on my bonnet. Then he jumped of and continued on his way without missing a beat. There was a considerable dent in the bonnet of my car.
Roos will kill a dog, either with kicks (injuries from kick and claws) or drowning.. they have up to 5cm curved claws.. as do koalas (for climbing)..
Koalas make a worse noise. At night it sounds like a haunting/deep guttural moaning..
I was on a school camp once. To a (semi) remote part of the Yorke Peninsula. Our group of 15 (2 adults, 13 15 year olds) were stalked, and tracked by some wild emus.
One of the girls walked a little ahead of the group and was tracked and got a stare down from a large male emu.
Just a fun story!
It’s illegal to carry bear or pepper spray in Australia with the exception of Western Australia. Love your videos. So funny. Keep them coming 👍
The Kangaroo was being rescued from Lake Burley Griffin in Canberra down near Kings Avenue Bridge.
The thorny devil is an amazing bit of evolution not only do the thorns offer some protection but because of the way its scales are designed any moister that collects on its body is funnelled towards its mouth so in the early morning it stands still and lets the dew collect on it and that's how it gets water in the desert.
This guy doesn't know the difference between a lake and a river. the Kangaroo was in a lake the truck was crossing a river you drongo.
Kangaroos are the most stupid creatures on gods green earth I drove a taxi for 2 years in Canberra my shift started at 2am and in the early hours the stupid things were everywhere and they would stand in the road jump out in front of you and the general reaction was fu*king kangaroo. The joke is you're not a real Canberran till you hit a kangaroo.
Echidnas are also know a spinney ant eaters they have a long sticky tongue and a tiny mouth. They go up to ant hills and termite mounds dig into them and flick there tongues into the tunnels and lick up ants they couldn't bite you if they tried
One of our old dogs were drowned by a kangaroo it stands on its tail and holds the dog under with its paws
Yes, kangaroos are notorious for dragging dogs into dams and drowning them. Definitely not like Skippy!
I spit out my water when he called the frilled neck lizard “that dinosaur from Jurassic park”
He is kinda right tho 😂
There are two types of Kookaburras in Australia. The first one shown is the blue winged kookaburra which has blue in it's wings and sounds like they are trying to do the laugh but all they get is an ah ah sound. The group of them is called a laughing kookaburra which make the sound heard in the video.
The funny thing is you think we’re joking when we talk about how vicious koalas are (drop bears) but they can be. And they can carry chlamydia too.
Generational Aussie know this is a myth:
"The more common strain, Chlamydia pecorum, is responsible for most of the outbreak in Queensland and cannot be transmitted to humans. The second strain, C. pneumoniae, can infect humans if, say, an infected koala were to urinate on someone, though it's unlikely."
Yes, I've found the chlamydia to be a huge problem. Any advice on how to cure it?
@@Cobra9836 don't have sex with a koala!
@@Cobra9836 Don't get pissed on by an infected koala I guess.
@@Cobra9836 I suggest only virgin koalas.
Hi. One of the greatest and much loved Aussie singers of all time is Johnny Farnham. He has just undergone major surgery snd we are all wishing him the very best atm. Watch him sing “Help” live with Melbourne symphony orchestra and you will see how loved he is! The song is a cover of a Beatles song.
Kookaburras are very friendly to humans. If you offer them food they will visit often and will sit on your lap or sit beside you and will eat from your hand. Magpies are also very friendly to human except in the nesting season when they will fly at you to keep you away from their nests. There was a news story about a magpie who used to visit a little girl and bring her pretty things to thank her for giving it food. It was apparently going into other people's yards to find things she might like. When my daughter was six a magpie would come into her room to visit her and would bring sticks and other nesting materials to her she was upset that these weren't cool things that the other girl was receiving so I explained to her that these were things that were very valuable to birds so that magpie was giving her something it valued.
the screaming girl being attacked by the magpie is my niece Amber, who's wedding i recently attended. it was a beautiful outdoor riverside venue, and started as a beautiful day before the incredible storm heavy rain, lightning, heavy rain and ankle deep water pounded the marquee tent , but the party carried on, the DJ kept playing, and the guests kept dancing, the bar stayed open and the caterers kept serving, it was awesome!.
Also thorny devil lizards (the one with all the spikes on its body) can shoot their own blood out of their eye glands as a defence mechanism
Known as the "what the fuck, bro? Gross, get away from me" Defence.
There’s a big Crocodile Park in northern Australia, my guess is that those crocs are about to be fed chickens.
there is but thats not where it was taken it not far from there. theres actually a few croc parks up there its called the Adelaide river jumping crocodile cruises
In the Quality defence was not trying to hurt if you’re here is the time to climb good sleep where’s the closest thing.
A painting and cleaning duties are fine with the following day and night, unfortunately we don't know anything more about it, and I will send you some
People are scared of the spiders in Australia, going for a walk in September in Australia and getting swooped by magpies is honestly the true definition of terrifying! And it’s true, Kangaroos are known to get dog’s attention and get them to chase them into water then once the dog is in the water the kangaroo will then drown them. It’s terrifying, Kangaroos are bloody brutal 😂
Magpie Alert ABBOTSFORD, NSW: very aggressive bird on the corner of Walton Cres and Teviot Ave. Thanks MAer Pam, loved the description of your windmill arms waving deterrent action! Peace out
We have some very entertaining animals here, mostly you find red backs around your house and white tip spiders. Blue tongue lizards which are awesome.
The biggest mistake tourist make when coming to Australia is they don’t know how to read the flags on the beach. I believe we lose more people each year to drowning in the ocean especially at Bondi beach. There is a whole show that shows how people not knowing how to read the flags and get into all kinds of trouble at the in Bondi. The show is based about the lifesavers there and how busy and popular the beach is and the importance of understanding the flags and the ocean. Most people don’t even know the sound of the shark siren. Love your channel mate. My partner and I love your reactions to all things Aussie, as we are from the flood affected area of Gympie Australia. Keep the reacts coming my bro.
we don't have bear spray cuz we don't have bears in the wild
What about the drop bear
Just wondering if you know that Koalas love to go body surfing?
Not even yanking ya' chain, they really do.
I've had to help a few coming out of the surf, then trying to cross a really busy road coming off the beach right on dusk (I lived across from the beach for years, so I always had a massive beach towel on hand to pick 'em up without getting the buggery scratched out of me and carry them down to a stand of trees at the end of my street.)
Roo's evolved alongside the dingo. They know how to take out a dog.
More likely they evolved alongside the thylacine but have had 4,000 years to get used to be dingo, eh?
@@maxiculture the Queensland Museum notes that recent DNA studies suggest dingoes may have been in Australia between 4,640 and 18,100 years.
Fossil evidence is hard evidence.
@@maxiculture DNA isn't? I suppose you're assuming every fossil has been found. Ok then.
@@fronttowardenemy9994 That would be absurd, but I can see why everyone is your enemy. Let's imagine I could show you a bone of a thylacine, dated, and then show you a dingo bone also dated and in the same dig as the first bone and stratigraphically above the thylacine. That's what I would call hard evidence. Like in Fromm's landing SA. Now show me a DNA, for the sake of agument. Then show me a 'molecular clock'. Nice range they have, from 4,640 - 18,100, for a 'maybe' occurrence! Wow!
The last guys commentary was perfection!😂
All the fluffy cute things WILL kill you. The snakes will back off if you fight back. The crocks will too.
A kangaroo, though? That thing will lure you into a river and literally drown you. they do that. If you fight back, it’ll fight harder.
Koalas have remarkably sharp claws. Even if it doesn’t kill you, it will leave you scarred in some kind of way.
The birds on their own are harmless, but they have friends.
She’s screaming to get the magpie away from her, but all she has to do is turn the nearest corner so she’s no longer in their territory and the nest.
Lol that trapdoor spider came out guns blazing and then was like "ah frick. This isn't a bug!" and ran away back to it's hole.
You always ask if Kookaburras are Magpies. Kookaburras are nice fellas. No one would just let a Magpie in their house lol
The guy getting struck by a bird is walking under a magpie nest and Daddy is defending his family.
That Koala attacking the little kid Perfect example of a drop bear 😅
Our wildlife is absolutely beautiful & precious whether it be feather, fur, scales or spikes ❤❤❤
Funniest thing on the news the other night, the the under 12's Crib Point Magpies football team got attacked by their own mascot on the field when a Magpie started swooping and pecking the hell out of the kids. The footage is hilarious!!
The white birds are sulfur-crested cockatoos
I live on the edge of rural Victoria on 20acres of bush land and throughout most of my childhood we had a big wild kangaroo(roo) named Erl that slept on our trampoline every night. My little brother would go outside to pee off the edge of the deck each morning and say high to Erl (from a distance). Erl was a 7ft roo that is built like the rock and was pure muscle. He was pretty chill.
The bird @9:06 is a Kookaburra.
Sulphur Crested Cockatoos - they’re surrounding her because she has food!
0:30 that old man with the snake well you call that lucky and i call him an old fool
1:44 “isn’t that a dinosaur?”
NAH bro never seen a frilled neck lizard or something that’s hilarious- 😂
I found out the hard way as a kid feeding a Roo standing up. I fed about 8 to 10 of them fine then an old grumpy red kangaroo came over and me being a ranga he thought I was another roo, he grabbed me around the neck/shoulders with his arms and gave me a couple jabs before he started leaning back to kick me but a zoo keeper came and saved me taught me how to feed them properly. Told me old mate was extremely old, really grumpy and thought I was another male roo trying to take his females hahahaha
First off its pronounced 'ozzys' and the bird that went inside for a piece of meat is a kookaburra. The black and white swooping bird is a magpie and the lizard is a frilled-neck lizard.
“I thought those were from jurassic Park”😂😂😂
There was a magpie swooping me one day while me and my partner were walking down the street when we were kids so I crossed the street and just laughed my arse off when she realised what was going on
Koalas are territorial buggers. They have two opposable thumbs on each "hand" and claws designed for climbing eucalyptus trees (some of which have very smooth bark)
Me: "I need a cup for the spider!"
Australians: "Get the bucket!"
get the flamethrower
Echidnas are so cute and curious. They have spikes to protect themselves but they don’t attack you.
That first lizard you saw was a Frill Neck Lizard and they don't hurt you at all, they just run after you to try and scare you away.
Hence why the guy is laughing.
We have many animals. And many stupid people who will approach them. 🙄..
One thing we're taught from a young age in Australia, is they may look cute and cuddly, but they're still a wild animal. So treat them as such. Notice the indigenous man, tussling with a kangaroo, knew how to carry himself. Never face a kangaroo with your arms out to defend yourself. That's a challenging posture for a fight. Best defence is to put your back to them - just like the indigenous man did.
The problem when you scare a large Goanna (lizard) or a koala is their defence is to climb the tallest thing closest to them, to escape. Which tends to the be person who gave them a fright. They're usually not trying to attack you. They claw into you though, to climb you like a tree. I'm sure the koala was surprised, the child they latched onto, wasn't a tree and then clung on for dear life, as people were trying to pry them apart.
Australian animals are pretty chill when you know what frightens them, or triggers them, and you don't do it. Unfortunately, these kinds of videos usually have uneducated people (even urban Aussies, not just tourists) who make the animals appear a lot more aggressive than they actually are. Any wild animal you corner or confront, is going to engage a defence mechanism.
A lot of tourists seem to think about the cuddly koala and the friendly kangaroo that you feed but they are only like that because they are used to humans or the people are basically ignoring them and being very calm. They are wild animals, just like any wild animal they can attack when feeling threatened. That tradie was very wise when that roo was kicking, turn away so it can’t get your organs, if a big one gets you head on it could be very bad.
Saying that, you need to look up the quokka.
5:30 Thorny Mountain Devils are my favourtie lizards. The are so docilie, but please leave them in their habitat.
Keeping one for a pet will kill them. They like to sit by an ant track for food. It is on the road because it has just come out of hibernation.
The koalas just don’t like tourists😊 had a brown snake in the house, daughter calmly picked it up and took it across the road to the creek, son-in-law and I were at the back of the house.
A full grown Roo can balance on its tail and give a kick that will snap you in two
Ryan, love your vids! As an Aussie, can tell you a couple of things.
1. Koalas look cute but have chlamydia and are very territorial. They attack, but if they come to you, you're fairly safe.
2. Kangaroos are DANGEROUS! They use their tails like a freaking seat, use their little arms to hold onto you & then proceed to try shred whatever they can with their massive legs & claws.
After the massive fires that wiped out most of Canberra (i was born & raised), i was walking home and ran into the biggest grey i have ever seen. He was over 6ft, his body was at least 3ft wide and i had to back away slowly & walk the long way home.
Also usually if you hit ANY kangaroo with your car, its a write off. Only very littles ones do minimal damage and trucks are usually ones who take them out. You in a car you usually SCREWED 😂😅
3. Dont mess with an Emu. One literally stole chicken from my fathers plate as he and my mum were having a picnic years ago. Little bugger just popped over my dads shoulder and took it 😂😂
4. The 'dinosour' is a Frilled Neck Lizard. They use the frill necks to make themselves look bigger and more dangeous to predators.
5. NEVER just put shoes on in Australia if they have been outside. Our spiders like to hide in them. Back in the 80s/90s my father new a guy who was a construction site manager. Lived in Sydney. Chucked his boot's on at like 5am, worked on site from 6 to 9am and went into his office. Just after he sat down felt 2 horrific pains in one of his feet. Threw his boot off and out crawled a funnel web. It killed him 😢
That being said, you grow up here you learn to respect the wildlife.
We also believe that if someone is dumb enough to mess with them, especially someone who lives here, you get what you deserve 😂😂😂
That looked more like an Ostrich than an Emu
The one that didn't like cameras? I think it was a Rhea, from South America.
The kangaroo balances on its tail so it can seriously injury its opponent with its back legs. They can kill. All Australian animals can be dangerous when they feel threatened or territorial. The kookaburra is the bird with the big beaks and laugh (not black and white magpies). The animal that kind of looks like a porcupine is a mammal called an echidna (E-kid-nah). 12.35 is our native dog called a dingo (they have killed people/babies, look up Lindy Chamberlain). Many of our flora and fauna (also places) have indigenous names.
its very common for a roo to try n get through the windscreen , ive had one hop along beside me then just aim for the windscreen n jump . i was smarter tho . i knew it was going to do it n hit the brakes . it just slid off the bonnet n took off .
Kangaroos, like most herbavores, are grazers. They don't have a pattern when they are feeding. They will enter the road side through a broken fence, or jump over a low fence and continue following the feed. When startled, like when a car comes, they instinctively return to where they came from. Problem is, they can often forget where that particular spot was. Simply slowing down and allowing the roo to find it's direction can help, but not necessarily in all cases.
No, Ryan, it’s a Kookaburra (cooker-burra)
Kangaroos have a big claw on the centre of their feet (paws). Once they get up on their legs and stand tall, they use their tail to balance and they will lift their feet to try and rip you open with the claw.
Koalas will run toward you and climb up your body. They don't care where they scratch to climb. They have really sharp claws and apparently sharp teeth too!
In Victoria (SE Australia) koalas are often kicked to death by cows when they climb down from trees to move to other trees.
Many mainland koalas have chlamydia. There is a colony of disease free koalas on French Island in Victoria.
10:03 that's the same type of snake the silly old man was kicking 0:30
That kangaroo shaking hands with his rescuer was not in a "river"; it was in Lake Burley Griffin, in the very centre of our capital city Canberra. Incidentally a two-minute drive frm where I am writing this.
Didn't they have to put it down?☹️
@@gregoryheycox7419 I hope not. Don't know, but it's unlikely unless it was injured. They're tough as nails and it had just been in the water. I hope that once it had warmed up it just hopped off ... probably up my street, which is the easiest access point to the Mount Ainslie Reserve.
Hows you Arvo going? That's Aussie slang. We never say Happy Arvo. It's funny though.
I love how he says “Happy arvo”. I love how he’s so enthusiastic about Australia. I think it’s delightful and he now says it in every video. It’s his own twist on it. 💝💝💝
I get so annoyed when he says happy arvo. As an Australian, I've never heard anyone else say that in my lifetime
@@Cobra9836 chill mate, It’s very Ryan and it’s just fine. I actually said it to a customer at work the other day without realising! Then had to explain why I (apparently) randomly started laughing. 😂
@2:50 is a funnel Web spider
The one where the big roo is banking on the door is the same roo that attacked a dog and it’s owner punched it in the head
The roo followed them home and that’s him trying to get the man that punched him lol
*banging
I’ve only seen those large skinny spiders in Queensland and they COVERED the trees with web. 😳
Gray kangaroos are smaller and friendlier. Reds are the huge aggressive ones
Don't mess with big reds. THey will take you down.
The dinosaur lizard was a frill-neck lizard. Yes, a 'roos tail is straight up muscle. The rear claws of a 'roo can rip your belly wide open and the teeth have been recorded biting through a boot. The echidna (that funny, spikey thing) eats ants (tiny mouth and long tongue) and is one of only two monotremes (the other is the platypus). These are both egg-laying mammals.
That video of the kookaburra that comes into the house with the woman she has her own channel and has kookaburras and Magpies that come to her and also come into her house. She also has other birds that come to visit her
Hey Ryan from an Aussie your vids are awesome, always get a laugh 😂
The kangaroo's in your vids are small in comparison to a full grown male red Kangaroo
the frilled neck lizard is on the 5 cent piece
We got blue tongue lizards.they bite and lock on and won't let go.
