@@Gugner no I can’t help but wonder could spinosaurus have done this in the Cretaceous I mean there were pine trees, and hunted sauropods to make sure the trees had plenty of time to grow
In other words: How the nutrient rich ocean feeds otherwise barren mountain ranges. When salmon and steelhead trout are barred by insurmountable dams to reach the streams high up in the mountains, the whole environment there suffers.
@@terramater In reintroduction efforts in 'reopened' stretches of these rivers they had to dump carcasses of salmon from canneries to create the right environment for restocked fry of Pacific salmon, so there would be enough food for the salmon to grow up.
There's just so much of the natural world that humans simply don't know. Amazing how complex and interrelated everything is...including what people do and contribute (both for the good and for the bad).
Y'all always have the perfect music choices for your videos. One of my biggest complaints with educational channels and documentaries is the choices in music or lack thereof. I don't think people understand the wonders right music choices can do for educational media.
Great video! I remember seeing this on an Attenborough documentary once but this was beautiful foorage and very informative as well! Good work. Its truly amazing to learn about the interconnectedness of Mother Nature! I would love to see videos on urban animals if possible in the future, as i always find stories of animals living among humans truly fascinating. Cheers!
Thanks! Ah, cool! We‘ve worked with David a few times; he‘s just the best! Just check our website, if you want to know more about these productions or of you want to get some behind the scenes: www.terramater.at/productions/david-attenboroughs-light-on-earth/ Great suggestion, thanks! Urban animals are truly fascinating! Last spring a fox mother & her three cubs spent some months in our office garden. It was so great to see them growing up.
Absolutely wonderful video aside (i LOVE the “nutrient pumps” like this; whale pumps, guano etc), one minor (and somewhat snobby) correction (or at least caveat) : Trees, despite being a major carbon *reservoir*, are not a great carbon *sink*. Peat Bogs, Swamps, and Algae are the main long term carbon sinks (Hence your Coal, Oil/Natural Gas, and misc stuff like Shale/Bituminous Sands/Diatomaceous Earth etc) I hope this doesn’t come across as rude, and i get the reason why this could be a good talking point, but this and the Oxygen Production point sometimes mentioned are a bit incorrect so I thought that may be worth pointing out. All that aside this video was really neat! (i was unaware of this nutrient pump and it’s interesting!) (Semi-Random thing, i think “reverse coal mining” with Carbon Black (from methane pyrolysis etc), or slurries of biomass etc would be an interesting carbon sequestration method, although the more conventional enhanced weathering probably makes more sense.
Hey Eric, thanks a lot for your words! This kind of feedback is always very welcome. It helps us to improve our work. It‘s so cool to see how much into nature our audience is. Please feel free to drop all your thoughts, inputs, topic suggestions. That‘s exactly what the comment section is for. Greetings from Vienna :)
But not at the cost of the environment, their “luxury” is starving for whole of winter and their food waste is actually helping the ecosystem around! (Take it on lighter tone, guessing you too are well aware)
I argue wolves do more than bears. Bears leaves the fish on the bank, while wolves actually does the work and tend to bring them further into the woods (to avoid bears)
@@terramater actually wolves Duplay a good key role they keep the deer population in check so that the deer doesn’t become to numerous and devour the forest thus , the trees that salmon or nitrogen, as it’s commonly called with grow back and continue to expand
I wonder why bears don’t just wait until all the salmon mate and die then they could eat the same salmon anyway. They wouldn’t have the eggs but they would get everything else.
Hi @tracynorris5012, thank you for taking the time to watch and comment on our video! It's indeed heartbreaking to think about the possible starvation of grizzly bears without the salmons. Protecting both the Salmon and the Bears is so important, they both play crucial roles in the ecosystem.
@@terramater You're welcome. I live in North Georgia mountains in my beautiful woods. I once saw a mother black bear with 2 cubs. I know exactly where they had a den. I didn't tell anyone in order to protect them. I once heard a bobcat scream. I see deer, red foxes, raccoons, red tail hawks, copperheads, possums, cotton tail bunnies, etc.. I'm so blessed and happy to be here in their world. Your video was stunning. Look forward to more. Bless y'all and All Wildlife the whole world over. Peace and love ❤️🙏🥰
Amazing, Thanks for the information! imagine being so successful in catching a fish you start to leave some for others. There's also a case similar to this, i think it's from a large feline, can't remember if it's a Cougar, it's so successful on hunting wolves start to follow the large cat and steal it's kill, the large cat got fed up and start to kill a couple of animals for them to eat so that the wolves would start munching and stop stealing, mf got taxed.
Yeah I thought it was funny saying the get nitrogen from the sea. You can buy/make all kinds of fish fertilizers. Amino acids from fish fertilizer NPK - 12-1-1.
Like the salmon comes from up the river Jesus came from God and returned back to him, swimming against the flow of the world and its evil deeds, dying in the process to give life to his offspring. God is the creator of heaven or earth or how else can be such interconnected life cycles be explained?
@@anugrahabarik2651 That does not make one a bad person. Maybe to a human standart but not according to Gods standart. When you get drunk and are a glutton thats not good, but to eat meat and drink wine is not evil.
Thanks for watching anyway! Since we aren't native speakers there will probably always be a little accent, but that is why we make subtitles for every video.
Here in the UK our PM is really on the ball to net zero, he just licenced 100 permits for more gas and oil in North Sea, Great Man Rishi Sunak, My children it's for your future !!!!
wow the cycle is so fascinating. just like me going to work, earn money, my wife then take all my money and i steal my money from my wife. its a life cycle
