This month the patrons have chosen to return to the island where the story of the land crocs concluded. New Caledonia is one of the last remaining fragments of the lost continent of Zealandia! A land mass that drifted away from Australia about 85 million years ago! Most of this land would eventually be submerged under the Pacific Ocean but a few remaining islands would act as a time capsule of endemic species like no other!
Here, with the near total absence of mammals, the islands of New Caledonia would be a haven for birds, reptiles, and a staggering array of plants found nowhere else on earth. Creatures who can trace their ancestry back to the lost super continent of Mesozoic Gondwana!
Also I have decided to continue letting everyone vote to see what locations will be be added to the Patreon poll on the 10th of every month! The poll is active now in the community tab on the channel but I will need to close it on the 10th to start the Patreon poll! SO GET YOUR VOTE IN NOW!
If you would like to vote on future Patreon poll videos, you can join the Cyanobacteria Army and help spread the glory of the goo!

Plants scare me because I just cant look into their eyes and feel like a get them, some of those plants can be suspicious too. Boquila trifoliolata is a plant that can make its leaves look like other plants, but what is it hiding from!? The Idea that this vine can look like any plant it grows on and that it might be because it can somehow see scares me, plants can already detect and react to light and this one can apparently mimic fake plants and how could it do that without being able to see? There are also the Devil's gardens in South America where this one species of tree has teamed up with these ants to take over the forest! There are large patches of forest with only one type of plant and the ants clear the forest for the trees. Its scary. There is also the quaking aspen which is able to be one tree, but also an entire forest by connecting underground and the Bengal fig can do the same but though the canopy! Cotton plants can team up with wasps to destroy caterpillars, what if they go after us next? Plants cant use fungi to talk to other plants which basically means the forest is talking to each other, also dont get me started on fungi! These organisms scare me because they are in charge of the atmosphere, drive the carbon cycle, are the basis of the food web, and do things that I dont like and therefore I just cant trust them. Plants are weird and I dont like them, but I also need them to breath. They are holding me hostage! We need more vegans! Sorry for my decent into madness, but any time I hear weird things about plants I have to do this and now I must add A. columnaris to the list of plants that are obviously planning something.
@Zappygunshot
@Zappygunshot Год назад
From what I could find after a super cursory bit of Google-fu, they're a super tall, somewhat thin species of conifer (common name Cook's Pine after Captain James Cook) and they only do this 'lean' outside of their native habitat, presumably because New Caledonia is almost exactly on the equator. What's odd, though, is that while all other known species of plants - including other New Caledonian Araucaria species - eventually correct this lean to stop themselves from falling over, A. columnaris trees don't. They just keep growing at the same ~8 degree angle. So while there is the possibility that it's just an extreme form of phototropism/phototaxis, it's as yet uncertain that quirky genetics, gravity, or even the Earth's magnetic field aren't involved to some extent. Keep in mind that this tree and its lean haven't been studied very much yet, and even the article I found was about a study from 2017 involving a sample size of only 256 trees; which is just far too small to draw any meaningful conclusions from.

New Caledonia is actually almost on the Tropic of Capricorn, not the Equator. The Equator passes through Borneo. And 256 individuals is arguably enough to get some significant results, but it depends on a number of statistical things like the variance and mean and that sort of thing. 30 samples is technically the minimum number for a useful study. I wonder if it is a primitive way to keep its leaves angled at the sun? I can imagine it looking much like an ancient clubmoss. Pretty interesting anyway

I suppose it's fortunate that New Caledonia's gecko species make excellent and amicable pets. The crested, gargoyle, and even the giant (popularly called the Leachie) geckos are pretty easy to care for when it comes to lizards and have been captive bred for years, if not decades now.

@@nerysghemor5781 it depends on the species. There are a lot of crested geckos that have been bred to be slightly different (simply more robust) than their wild counterparts. There is also color and pattern mutations that have been bred for which are a bit annoying when considering rewilding but nothing that makes the idea impossible. But there still is many zoological facilities and professional breeders who do work in programs from a conservation lense that work with what’s basically wildtype genetics. The main things we have done with them genetically is usually thing to make them more robust as I’ve stated. General Size, build, head size, crest size musculature, and even things like general long term health quality and even temperament. For gargoyle geckos they face a similar story as crested geckos. The giant geckos are often bred specifically to maintain their genetics from different localities from around the island chain. So it will be a lot easier to source animals for rewilding The chameleon gecko and the many of the other lesser known and kept New Caledonian species are all bred as purely wild types as well.

As a huge fan of New Caledonia, I like to see it as sort of an alternate reality of if Chicxulub never hit. The lineages are all extremely ancient, and yet speciation has changed them from their original Cretaceous forms. Meanwhile, in NZ to the south, many of the species themselves are extremely ancient and haven't changed much in all that time, though the diversity is lower and not exactly representative of a true Cretaceous forest. Zealandia is far and away my favorite part of the world, as I ended up digging a tad too deep into paleobotany and ended up with a strange longing for Paleozoic and Mesozoic forests, of which only Zealandia can truly provide some semblance of. Some day perhaps I'll end up living there, amongst an alien looking landscape of birds and tropical conifers. I've already been to NZ and next year will be off to New Caledonia!

Actually the delcourts giant gecko (hoplodactylus delcourti) would be the largest gecko to ever exist possibly up to 24" snout to tail, suspected to be from new caledonia, and some believe it may still exist on one or more of the islands. I think there is only one taxidermied speciemen found unmarked in a french museum basement, so it may not be technically considered the largest because of lack of evidence. The lechiaunus (giant gecko) is the largest if you dont count delcourts. Im hoping forest gallante will find the delcourts one day!. Also loved this video so awesome!!!

Now I got a much more clearer image of what the environment of the islands looked like and I think I got some new ideas for my speculative evolution project of Zealandia/Aotaeroa . Can't wait to see what the next lost world episode will be.

If I ever get round to making palaeontology videos myself, I'd like to work with you one day. I only recently found your channel while searching for different geological periods, which put me onto your series about the evolution of life on Earth. It was pretty good if I may say so. I liked it. Definitely seem like you've had formal palaeontological training. And if not, that is great; it makes it even better, because I'd say you have the natural ability to understand it very well.

New Caledonia is just a few hours away by plane for me, and you have made me want to visit.

It's kind of sad that Cuba didn't win. And it doesn't look like it was available for this next pole, I am really looking forward to seeing the art and just how cool these creatures are. It pretty cool to think about a giant flightless owl, but it is also very terrifying. The thought of camping within the Cuban tropical forests, hearing a tree branch, and shining your light just to see two huge eyes shining right back. I can only imagine the shriek that creature would have. Have a great day, and thank you for your very entertaining and informative content I apologize. I had to go and reread the pole, that would decide what the next video will be. And found that it is for the patron to vote for it. I'm crossing my fingers that Cuba wins. Edit***

Love your videos! I hope you get to do a video about corvids at some point. I'm fascinated with them the more I learn.
