if you insist
hey, guy. I searched on google, "are crustaceans insects" and the answer was no. Then I searched, "are butterflies insects" and the answer was yes. Clickbait much?
@@Kaydin66 because you searched it backwards, all crustaceans aren't insects but insects are crustaceans, so you would have to search in google "are insects crustaceans" and the answer is yes
According to the state of California, fish are also a crab. Lol
but we're not talking about the state of california. we're talking about science journals being quoted at the top of a google search. @@jasonwebb1882 I'm just so sick of clickbait.
When you said butterflies are crustaceans, I imagined a flock of neocaridina shrimp with wings. It was adorable 😊 and then came the tongue worm talk...
It's like a sub theme on the video and makes me cringe every time he says the name.
😂😂😂
😂🙊😂
Annnnnnd, I continued watching and it got worse. Tongue worms. Yuck!!
To be honest I'm like okay clearly two families here the delicious and the beautiful 😂👌 again shrimp which I could go for right now and butterflies which I love taking pictures of in my neighborhood to post on my Facebook
The algorithm just threw this video at me...the whole thing is just so gruesome and this man's unhinged energy is definitely not what I expected to see. Subscribed on the spot.
Same here ! I love this guy
Q: How often can you manage to fit tongue worms into this video about butterflies?
Clint: YES
It's only bad form to _start_ with tongue worms! Including them elliptically or parenthetically is just good manners!
It's not really about butterflies as such. Lepidoptera are just a tiny fraction of hexapoda, and hexapoda doesn't get unpacked here.
At least he had the good form to conclude with tongue replacement isopods. Sort of tongue parasites sandwiching the other crustaceans.
This guy's genuine excitement is contagious, I absolutely love it. Wish he'd been my science teacher when I was young
Tell me about it. My school stuffed science classes with coaches... ughhh, puke, ick... they made science as about as dull as they could.
Absolutely. I relate SO MUCH. And so do my colleages apparently.
I'm a professional working in a museum's research center, invertebrate section. But in central Europe, so ususally no marine species.
Anyway, I'm bad at judging myself, but I have a reputation and radiating that same contagiously passionate energy in workshops, puplic events, speeches or just simply simping over arthropods with anyone who is willing to learn more.
Teachers at shools rarely seem to catch their students interest that well. And I even understand. They would burn out of frustration really fast. Because unfortunately, basic shool is forced and many kids just aren't interested. I made that experience first hand.
Hold a workshop with shool classes, where all the kids have to join, and many (especially from a certain age on) won't be interested or even bored.
Hold a workshop on the weekend, "Science festival" setting, where parents come with their kids and the choose what they want to do: interest and even excitement.
Sorry for the long sermon I guess. Just to say: I feel you.
I love how Clint can talk about animal behavior that sounds like it came straight out of a horror movie with a smile on his face!
Not just a smile but an undertone of delight.
The collaboration I want to see, Clint and Stephen King! 🤔😱😂
He should do a troop video becuase they are kept as pets and he talked about them
I mean triop
@@lauraokelly2644 YES!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Tfw people try to tell me shrimp aren't bugs
Depends on your definition of “bug” because strictly speaking, bugs are species in the taxon Hemiptera, which includes planthoppers, cicadas, stink bugs, aphids etc
Colloquially, nobody means true bugs when they talk about bugs. It's moreso an unwillingness to admit they like eating water bugs.
@thereaIitsybitsyspider not shrimp, but the cray fish/crawl dad crustaceans are often referred to as "mud bugs". Some have accepted this 😆
@@ZhovtoBlakytniy and then you have Moreton Bay Bugs, which are slipper lobsters! (also: very tasty)
My SIL calls shrimp "the cockroaches of the sea"
"The question on all of our minds is, do they have [something most of us have probably never heard of]."
I love Clint so much 😂
How dare you bring up toxicognaths like that! ^_^
I love how you make sure to refrence the tongue worms essentially every paragraph. I needed that.
The pilcrow, ¶, is also a tongue worm. 🤷♂️
I just wanna say that I’m autistic with a special interest in phylogenetic classification and these videos make me so incredibly happy. Thank you.
Same here!
Ayyy fellow autistic person! :D
My special interest is just learning interesting things so videos like this popping up in my recommended always make my day
That's awesome
Cool
Anyone who doesn't have a special interest in phylogenetic classification, or at least taxonomy in general, is wrong.
I may or may not be autistic (no, like, genuinely says that on my medical chart)
Finally you covered the fact that insects are crustaceans. I learned that fact a few months ago when I was exploring the relations between different animal groups (because it is fun to do), and it blew my mind away when I discovered that fact. Biology is absolutely wild, and I love it!
I feel like in school we are always taught the 6 (sub)phylums of extant Animals- mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and insects… then explained defining features of insects, like six legs…. but, ignoring that fish is the catch all phylogeny for aquatic chordates who aren’t members of another subphylum, we should’ve been just taught “Arthropods”
Of course then we’re ignoring all sorts of other phyla… no no, instead of learning the phyla in the animal kingdom, we should’ve just learned about Cordata and saved learning about the other 30 phyla later.
It seems like you like that kind of thing!
I discovered it a few months ago thanks to a kind soul in the RUclips comment section. I was commenting on a video that pointed out how similar the anatomy of a shrimp is to an insect. I went in the comments and said they are similar because they are both arthropods. Someone came in and told me not only that, but insects are crustaceans too! I looked it up and they were right! It blew my mind
@@mjp121 fun fact, "fish" is a a paraphyletic group unless you include all vertebrates. Certain types of fish are more closely related to camels than to other fish. Also, reptiles. Reptiles are also a paraphyletic unless you include birds and mammals, and crocodiles are more closely related to birds than to lizards.
I always thought they were because of the exoskeleton and their appearance
18:00 A similar kind of parasitism to the tongue worm is the mite that feeds off the bottom of an army ant's foot. The rear legs of the mite are shaped like the ant's claws, and the mite acts as the ant's foot.
That's hot
I thought you meant that butterflies are crustaceans but not insects, and I was so excited for that new phylogenetic discovery 😂 crustacea being a big group that includes all insects makes a LOT more sense.
Same here. I was like, "Wait, so their wings are similar to the bivalvic shells of these other guys you've been introducing? Rad!"
Yeah that's what I understood too. Including all insects is crustacea isn't very surprising as they also have exoskeletons and jointed limbs
fr
Talking about tongueworms reminds me of how excited my first year zoology prof was to discuss parasites overall. He ended each parasite related class with "now who wants sushi?"
The wacky life cycles of parasites are pretty fascinating, even if they also kinda gross me out a bit. But the things that i find most fascinating usually also freak me out a little bit, whether that's parasites, diseases, or tornadoes.
my prof was the same haha
Me too, lol. Grew up in tornado alley…once got a swat for sneaking out of the bathroom to watch a huge tornado approach. My parents were right to get me away from the window…it skipped our street and destroyed ever house behind us. I remember asking my mother where all the children went…she responded “to heaven.” No sirens and post WWII poorly constructed housing without basements or shelters.
Haggis, pumpernickel bread, the French, and the number 42.
I honestly have more trust in sushi than in beef served rare.
@@NeroCM I don’t trust either but I do love how they taste!
As a current biology major considering entomology as a masters, these phylogeny videos are the BEST thing I've come across! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
When was introduced in the class of Forensics Science around 2003, I had to learn about a subsect of entomology(as a coroner, it's a core fundamental) you need this skill. Love how fascinating decay,smell,bugs etc all have a vast correlation and symbiotic relationship. People often wonder, when bugs are the first on the scene when you die or are at the end of slowly dying(in reality your brain is sending a low frequency out to be eaten and carried off) don't ask me how I know this,it will creep you more the tongue 😝 parasites. We are taught Angel wings are what we hear when are slowly dying but in reality it's the wings and rapid movement of bugs coming right towards you from every direction(sorry for those that don't like to read,I'm not sorry that you are lazy,and it makes you tired get with fast pace) all bugs fill in as to feed off your body, it's the way the world is not from 200,000 years ago(creatures went from big to smaller or vice versa) they aren't really gone unless they didn't breed.
But anyways studying entomology gives you a set of death and time(by the way your brain can live a week without the rest of the functions of other systems,thought you should or ought to know,fun fact) ballistics,blood splatter,debris under the toe/finger nails,teeth, and liquid from all skin/organs give some sort of time lapse from start to finish(depending on how thorough you are with your investigative skills on can run one conclusion or many all are true)
@@jebVlogs556 I love you man!
@@jebVlogs556 Thankyou for the heads up re brain sending " come eat me" signal for bugs while slowly dying 😬 I knew a similar thing happens with plants that are sick and distressed, pest insects detect chemical signitures like a beacon and infest it.
@@jebVlogs556 good read, but not angel wings? Perhaps. But that's not for you to decide is it? That's where faith comes in
@@jebVlogs556 your blood relatives will continue your genetic heritage too, that’s why we have eusocial insects and naked mole rats, plus other less extreme ways of supporting relatives and their offspring like siblings and their children.
shrimps is bugs
Delicious bugs.
No it's not
This video is especially timely for me. I was at the dentist yesterday and wondering why, whenever a dentist starts doing their business in my mouth, my tongue becomes enraged , flails around violently and nothing I do can stop it’s movements. I try to stick it to one side of my cheek but it soon escapes and returns to attack my dentist’s fingers. It definitely has a mind of its own. Maybe it IS a tongue worm, I don’t know.
Wrong animal the tongue worms don’t go on your tongue they look like it that’s the tongue eating louse
I thought I was the only one that did that. I feel so guilty about it.
Is the reindeer sinus worm (Linguatula arctica) the best nasal mucus eating pet crustacean ? It might be if you're into that kind of thing. Which I am.
Cool post. I mean, _gross,_ but also cool.
Perhaps we should rate them on care, handle-ability, upfront costs... 😂
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
This is the funniest comment
Because im into that kind of thing, could you cover all of the corvids? Those are both fascinating and terrifying.
I definitely intend to dig into that group!
@@ClintsReptilescool!
@@ClintsReptiles I'm so excited! I'm working on getting into a career working with birds (in zoos and the such) and corvids absolutely fascinate me, it would be a dream to specialise in them in the future, and I'm also a nerd who loves speculative fiction in the early stages of writing a novel about corvid society... My notification bell is already on but if it wasn't, it would be now.
Yes please!
Please! Corvids are awesome!
Had a good work conversation with a friend about phylogenetics the other day. The look on their face when I suggested that we as vertebrates can be considered "fish" was priceless
Clint has the most wholesome serial killer energy
“I wasn’t gonna kill you, I was just gonna cut you”
I'm studying Wildlife Conservation and I absolutely love your videos! I say phylogeny February needs to happen.
I'm in the same field but I always hated phylogeny. It always seemed rather pointless outside of simple curiosity, the groupings always change, the cladograms in general change constantly, also until DNA analysis got better cladograms were incredibly inaccurate. When I took a Mammalogy class the basic mammal cladogram changed so much during the course that on the final there was a huge list of changes to it. So we had to unlearn a bunch of stuff that we just learned and relearn new stuff that would likely be changed in a few months. Insane to think that many correct answers on the midterm would have been incorrect on the final.
@shadowprince4482 that's awful!
I'm thinking on a test, both should have been allowed - with extra credit for any changes remembered.
It's Philogeny Phebruary, let's get that straight right now.
@@needfoolthingsthis right here is underrated!
Please do a video on hexapods, hymenoptera might even deserve their own video! Bees and ants being wasps is always a funny thing to bring up.
And guinea pigs!
25% of all known ANIMAL species are beetles. I think splitting the inevitable insect video further, into separate insect group videos, could be worthwhile.
Yea!
i know so much about wasps, if you'd like to hear some cool facts about them or general basic information, please ask me anything. I could talk about them for hours, just ask my therapist
@@kai_fatallysapphicYeah wasps are fascinating! I was just looking up more about them.
My first video I’ve seen of Clint, and this guys enthusiasm is hooking me like a tongue worm
Ah yes! I looooove telling my fiancé that birds are dinosaurs. He HATES it. I've told it in random context so many times I've practically exhausted the topic. But now I have a new one! Thank you.
Edit: Yet more suggestions in the comments. I love this community.
Humans are lava monsters.
Lava is the liquid of a natural rock of the earth. Meaning Ice counts in that definition, and since its liquid version mostly composes us. We techniqualy count as lava being.
With the monster part being a rendition on how humans can be vile.
A famous one is that all tetrapods (including mammals, etc) are just weird land fish
He mentions that snakes are lizards (and Mosasaurs were as well)
Plants are weird land algae. Ants are a family of mostly flightless wasps. Termites are weird eusocial cockroaches. That's all I can think of off the top of my head
Another fun thing, that flips this on its head, is stem groups. You can say, for example, that all extinct dinosaurs were stem-birds. Dimetrodon was a stem-mammal.
@@quincy9908 knowing that the temperature in most of the universe (space) is around -270°C and that we live around 20°C, we are indeed kinda lava monster
edit : and we also live on a ball of rock&metal that's so hot that half of it is melted, so on a lava ball
@@HuckleberryHim
I look it up and termites are related to to cockroaches. I always assume they’re related to ants.
@@HuckleberryHim About the "land fish"; considering that mudskippers are not lobe-fins like us but ray-finned fish in the mostly waterbound goby family, and that catfish, salmon, and even some sharks can "walk" on dry land for relatively long periods of time, the weirdest thing is that more fish didn't colonize the land permanently.
The crab is the eternal form.
I love this--your way of presenting weird and sometimes horrifying scientific info is totally endearing. 💗🦋🦐
Omg, PLEASE make more phylogeny videos. I’m an absolute sucker for phylogeny, and I think overviews like this are a really really good way of grasping the traits and diversity in certain groups
Paraphyletism really highlights the difference between human-imposed ontology/nomenclature and natural
The perfect video to listen to while I'm making breakfast. . .
Especially if you're having a big bowl of fresh blood or mucus!
I was watching while eating breakfast, thinking crustaceans and butterflies would be safe enough, when suddenly TONGUE WORMS. I had to pause until I finished eating lol.
@@ClintsReptiles I was making tuna melts lol
Now that you mention it, caterpillars do look a tiny bit like shrimp
I’ve never ever seen anyone who could make parasitic blood sucking tongue worms sound cute! But by golly Clint you’ve done it! All with a smile 😃 Love it! Our whole family loves your channel. Never stop smiling!
I feel like the proper way to follow up this video would be a lovely discussion of the Hymenoptera.
this is one of my favorite facts to tell people. they always get so offended when i tell them insects are crustaceans lol
My daughter collected a bunch of cool looking dead insects she has found outside. Some of the insects are hollow and dry exoskeletons, but some are still in the decomposition stage and they smell just like a rotten shrimp. Not surprising!
They aren't offended, they're just confused and think you are wrong because of how people colloquially refer to things. When people typically say crustacean we don't mean pancrustacea.
@@msk-qp6fn Some people get genuinely offended and yell at you that it's not true and you're crazy. They do that with birds being dinosaurs, too. They don't want to believe it because they think there is more of a difference than there actually is.
*trying to convince myself to take a shower and go to the laundromat*
*new Clint video*
Okkkk nevermind, a few more minutes.
I'd visit this channel often when I had found an interest in reptiles several years back. Having gotten into taxonomy and phylogeny very recently, I felt personally targeted when I saw this in my recommendations. I'd love to see more of this type of content!
I respect that Clint seem to live in the post-apocalyptic ruins of a building inhabited by alien parasite creatures, but tastefully decorated with pristine office furnishings.
Clint is from the future and broadcasting this back in time to warn us.
Absolutely right
Well that's a title I never thought I'd see ,well done on the grand opening
Thank you so much!
I love all your videos, but when I see you posted a phylogeny video, I have to click and watch it right away. Even my partner, who really is NOT into the subject like I am, enjoys your videos because of the way you present the information with excitement and passion. It's wonderful to listen to someone who you can tell loves the subject they are speaking on, and that is one of the things that makes you a great educator. I can't wait to see the video on Hexapoda!
Hi Clint! Hopefully I’m early enough to suggest this, but you should TOTALLY cover the Dunkleosteus. Undeniably one of the coolest animals from the Devonian era.
I LOVE the new Dunk design. Stubby Dunkleosteus is the cutest!
Clint, your joy so so contagious. Seeing you talk about what you love and how excited it makes you brings my heart so much joy. Thank you for being such a cool human, you rock.
Okay, I already thought butterflies were some of the most awesome critters in the animal kingdom but now they are even more awesome! Not only do they do the most metal things like drink blood, liquify themselves in their cocoons only to reconstitute themselves and have genetic memories for migration, they're now crustaceans too? I love butterflies and crustaceans, isopods most specifically, you just made my day! Nature is wild, man.
hi clint! would you be willing to do a video on extinct shark species? i think it'd be really interesting and also a cool way to discuss why some modern sharks are so different from extinct ones!
Seems like a good topic to me!
@@ClintsReptiles Me gearing up ready to immediately watch and send it to my friend whose special interest is sharks and frankly most likely already knows this stuff but this is how i show people i like them dammit
I love the Stanford Pines hair thing you've got got going on, Clint. Never change, you absolute gem.
What a phenomenal video! I'm in my first year of biology so i loved recognising all the taxa you mentioned, but also learning many new things along the way. please do more of these, especially covering hexapods more in depth!
I remember learning about the tongue replacement when I was in marine science and its still fascinating and horrifying as the first time I learned about it. At least the fish still got a tongue. And you cant call it a mutually beneficial relationship, but at that point where the tongue is gone, but fish still has a functional tongue, fish is now codependent with tongue replacement. Its amazing and insane
I learned about them first hand while working at an aquaculture facility; I don’t consider myself squeamish but I legitimately almost vomited when I saw one of those parasites in a living host for the first time.
If I remember right (I might be thinking of something else), the fish is also basically on borrowed time once the parasite replaces its tongue. Another reminder of just how brutal, unfair and yet ingenious nature can be.
@@ShintogaDeathAngel in the case of the species I learned about, the fish and the parasite that replaces the tongue develop a codependent relationship, but the fish isn’t being hurt any further (besides losing the tongue, but because the parasite becomes the new tongue, it’s a net 0 and now there’s a living creature in its mouth that it needs to live and vice versa). Horrifying and fascinating
It’s truly an abusive relationship lol
I love how your defense at buffing how terrifying Tongue Louse are is by describing the process like a Three Stooges bit 😂
one of my friends who's wayy into biology went to a con, met you, and recommended me your channek because i am too. so glad i checked you out. your videos are sooo good to watch and easy to follow :)
I love the glee on your face as you tell us horrifying animal facts! 💗
If we still lived in the 90s I’d watch your show on animal planet every day.
i honestly love the phylogeny videos, no matter how gross or disturbing they can be. they’re just all so informative and fascinating. they the mentally connect the living organisms i know of to their cousins that i have not heard of.
Whales actually can benefit from barnacles, mostly on their flippers to be used as brass knuckles, as seen with Humpbacks.
i've had a couple of sporadic videos pop up in my feed recently and all of them interesting in completely different ways. im glad i found this channel! please continue
This helped a lot, because it was like a summary of five of my zoology lectures. Please more videos on phylogeny!
Clint, you have a way of making something complicated like phylogeny and gross things like tongue worms so much fun to listen to.
Phylogeny videos are some of my favorites. This was amazing and I learned a lot. I hope you will do similar presentations for Myriapoda and Chelicerata (or even Arachnomorpha). I am curious about their relationships to Pancrustacea.
I love your videos SO MUCH. I have no academic background in biology whatsoever but it’s incredible to learn about these little bits and pieces of information from you
Amazing video Clint! It's great that you can just sit there with a huge smile and talk about tongueworms is extremely entertaining and educational.
Finally you covered that fact ! With all your phylogeny videos I was wondering when one on crustaceans would come.
Only one small tidbit: malacostracan crustaceans have 19 body segments, not 20; 5+8+6=19.
Apart from that small goof, very cool and informative video, I loved it!
"Capped off with a telsum (sp?)"
Isn't that the 19+1?
@@Transformers2Fan1 From what I remember, the telson isn't considered a true segment (something to do with how it doesn't develop from the same cells as the true segments during the embryonic stage), so it's not usually counted with the others.
But, if we relax the definition a bit, then malacostracan crustaceans actually have 21 segments : the usual 5-8-6 true segments in the head-thorax-abdomen, plus the telson, PLUS the acron, which bears the eyes and is located before all the other segments, at the tip of the head. Unlike the telson, the acron isn't a visually distinct structure (because the head segments are all fused together), but it's there, and so we can't omit it.
Thanks for pointing this out, it's a weird subtility that I should have explained in my first comment
@@Ainsley4EverTIL
His phrasing was a bit confusing - "5=8=6 plus 1 other thing", but thanks for the info!
Also I was hype to see you talk about copepods, I recently set up an aquarium and have started noticing them and it's fun! I doubt many will survive the the introduction of chili rasbora, but I bet the chilis will be happy they're there....
This is the first video I’ve seen from you, and as a biology major with a heavy focus on phylogenetics, this is beautiful
8:09 is the spot to skip to when tongue worms start getting talked about, for those who can't handle them ( i can't 😰)
Wonderful video by the way, i made it halfway through the aforementioned part because your content is that good!
A whole month of these videos? That sounds awesome! But definitely a lot of work on your end. I love these videos! This one is super interesting and full of new information. 😁 Thanks as always Clint!
yep, insects are crustaceans. hoseshoe crabs also aren't crustaceans, or crabs, they're chelicerates so they're closely related to arachnids, my therapist thought that was interesting. velvet worms have a phylum all to themselves, onychophora! originally thought to be most closely related to annelids, but now thought to be closest to arthropods and tardigrades!
i only read the title/thimbnail but you already have me info dumping about arthropod taxonomy, i love them so much 💕🦂🕷️🐝🪰🪳🐜🐛
You might be avoiding the real issues if this is what you talk about in therapy 😅
@@Neimonster i want you to remember that me and my therapist are human beings and then reconsider if what you said was kind or made any sense in the slightest.
i talk about my interests to my therapist because it's important he gets to know me, and because they help me calm down when the hard discussions are overwhelming me.
Phylogeny Fridays should become a series!
U had me with the thumbnail description!! Hilarious!! Thank you.
Your passion about the topic your talking about really is infectious. I always look forward to your videos. Keep up the amazing work ❤
Yes! I love the idea of more phylogeny videos and phylogeny February. Phylogeny is actually one of my favorite subjects you covered
...first video I've ever seen of this channel! and.. holy crap, Clint! I love your passion for these little creatures!! You got a new fan!
I learned so much! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!
This episode was fascinating and I love your channel, it is extremely fantastic and wholesome :3
Loved this video! Parasites are so interesting - I vote for more in depth videos about them! Bonus points for any that have toxicognaths or anything resembling them!
Clint, you are certainly teaching this old dog some new tricks. Since finding your channel, I have refreshed my biology knowledge with an online course and am now doing an online anthropology course. I intend to do some more as soon as I finish this with the hope to getting a better understanding of life on earth and how it evolved. Thank you for giving me so much to think about. I'm definately up for Hexapod video!
nice! Good luck from this anthropology graduate!
Thank you, it's fascinating.
Where has this channel been all my life. I love it. ❤ You're an awesome educator! 🎉Cheers!
Fascinating - I've leaned so much, including about toxicognaths, watching your videos. Thank you.
What a fantastic video. Evolution, biology, etc., are so interesting and awe inspiring.
Your enthusiasm gets me every time, Clint! Plus, I also love tongueworms. Mostly because they don't kill the host, they just sit there looking freaky (and drinking blood and eating boogers).
I really wasn't expecting to find out how cool toxicogaths are from this video. Thank you for that!!
It always bothered me that humans consider crustaceans like crab, lobster, and shrimp a delicacy but bugs are icky. The only difference is that one group (mostly) lives underwater
The taste is also a factor, though pickled locusts were treated as popular street food in Ancient Egypt. Some insects are better tasting than others.
I ❤ EVERYTHING about your sharing of knowledge. You are A-MAZ-ING!! Thank-you Clint 👏 👏
I don't think I've ever been equally mortified and fascinated at the same time. Love your videos!
This is the best thing I've seen since that one guy researched the origins of the name Tiffany.
Ty!
Great video once again! I would LOVE to see you do a video on symbiotic relationships in the animal kingdom! PLEASE! 🙏
Dudes passion is contagious
Glad I found this channel. What a delight!
Imagine having this guy as your biology teacher.
Yes! Hexapoda vid next please. imagine the creepiness and cuteness you could explore in that! Edit: and a Malacostraca video too, please! Just warn people not to eat lunch during it, like I usually do watching your videos....
You know, I'm so genuinely glad this was the very first video on this channel I ever stumbled upon. The utterly insane intro just immediately hooked me, and despite having a fascination with biology, evolution and phylogeny for most of my life, I learned about several animals I didn't even know existed just from this video alone! This video right here will probably remain my favorite for a long time, it's just great.
Been a while Clint
Hospital stays ❤
Glad to see you're still around.
I'd like to suggest making a video about lobsters as pets in collaboration with Leon from Brady Branwood channel. Really curious about the score, probably still better than human children 😄
You should do a video on hemidactylus geckos! They’re so often overlooked and ignored at least in the pet trade due to their reputation as house geckos, but they’re actually quite cool, with a large amount of cool little guys. (I may be a little bit biased, having a few really cute h.imbricatus and h.triedrus myself though haha)
Agreed! House geckos are adorable and make shockingly fun pets. Just don't tell me leopard gecko I said that!
I love how the title said "gets worse" and then it got better and better!
There is a parasitic fungus in cicadas that replaces a digestive organ, but it is actually a benefit because it can also synthesize nutrients that the cicada cannot acquire on their own.
I thought Insects & Crustaceans were separate classes within phylum Arthropoda? I’m blown away.
They are, he's conflating everything into pancrustacea, although recent transcriptomic evidence put insects deeper into the crustacean tree than what you might have learned in HS.
The first thing my GF said after seeing the first minute of the video was "look up crab swimming then look up butterfly flying " to compare and I think that's just delightful. they are similar and that's just disturbing and lovely
This guys energy is the best lol
Hey Clint and crew, I originally found your channel looking for care on a specific type of lizard, but these deep dives into taxonomy are really fun! You should make a playlist on them though? I couldn't find it, and I've been relying on the algorithm to find them for me.

You're welcome!
16:12 Is there a branchiopod hiding among the Malacostraca?
Like that krill is mighty sus...
Very interesting to get a true phylogeny, but I lean for crustaceans being only lobsters and their closer relatives.
Yes, I love the phylogeny videos and would love to see more!!! Also, we totally need a video on hexapoda!!
First video of yours i have seen, instant subscribe, tha ks for the content, love your style.
