Monitor Lizard Fights Mother Possum for Her Babies | BBC 

DWL lol

💀💀💀

Lizard was like, with these upgrades your babies never stood a chance.

Lol was thinking about a joke like that

Hahaha that was good

Sounds about what the police due to my people.

Possums rip each others heads off. They do have weapons it's just these lizards are powerful

@@brazillo19 Ha! Good one. And so true. ✊😄

@@brazillo19 Yee, more shit? Bad police, "your" good special people? Try to not be fucking shit that is the whole story. Fucking western scumbags looking for excuse. You just fucking up any place you appear.

@@mravecsk1 2hehrhr. @mravecsk1 The only western scumbags looking for excuses are the same ones that stormed the US capital, claiming that their rights were violated because Trump lost the election, AND those white supremacist race soldiers claiming they feared for their diabolic miserable lives by murdering unarmed innocent black people who are simply living their lives, minding their own business. Now stfu dumbass because you will not win this moral ethical argument.

he should hired Comodo Dragon of Indonesia

How? HAHAHA

Nature is not a happy ending movie

Opossums try to bluff their predators but they aren't very dangerous.

I think the lizard has won

Isaiah Jones That shits over now

@Isaiah Jones 😐 how does animals eating other animals for survival remind you of Slavery?

Isaiah Jones Still all happening in AFRICA this VERY day

@@adammiller1909 will get rid of you first

@Isaiah Jones im hispanic and just the fact thst you said "you people" makes your whole argument racist

Haha I know 🤣

Daniel Reyes that’s not funny sir

awdawd awdawdad Why did you watch this video then?

Daniel Reyes because I like animals

@@awdawdawdawdad7110 GAY

My cat likes to kill some ratbabies every time; the opossum also is a rat - so what? "Incredibly sad" ... OMG!

@@thorexander7720 theres no need for overreaction.. OMG and that stuff... you don't have to feel the same way as others.

@@ShakilHashmi Well said Shakil

@@sammysooby5685 thank you very much Sammy 🙏

OoOhHhh, Dear.... *boo who*

If your kids get eaten in front of you and someone says but nature has its own laws you will wanna 💀them

only a part of them, majority die from a evil asteroid crash

cfltitan me too dude 🤦‍♂️

Many of the Animals in nature lose their babies. Like ostriches.

Yeah, me too

I know it's ignorance and lack of consideration but I felt bad for the name of Jesus people so randomly and uselessly use on a daily basis.

@Christopher Pussies who built western civilization as we know it

@Gio Moscol it’s a family guy joke stop trying to be a know it all that’s why he has likes cuz some people actually got it. And I didn’t even like the comment thought it was outdated but yea.

the circle of LIFE! dun-dun-dun-dun

Marlin from Nemo can relate.

Relax

They don't think like humans.

well it is harder for a whale and elephant because it is harder for them to have babies and take care them

me too bruh, sad times.

Spur-of-the-Mountain It was definitely the school shooting for me

Bruh, they have plenty more like this with other animals. All equally depressing.

Yep.

Really? Well, good for you coz i just watched a teenager killed himself using a KSG while streaming here on youtube.

Actually, having dealt with my fair share of goannas over the years, I believe that you are correct. IMHO the best chance she had was to pursue and chase the lizard on that initial success and then quickly move the family elsewhere. Goannas are unbelievably persistent. Giving up is not in their DNA. We have learned from others who live in the bush, to catch them and relocate them a very long way away. Otherwise, they will just keep on returning. The only real option for the possum was to grab the kids and move away a.s.a.p.

They have no sense to move from their nest like humans...that's a simple animal..

That's right! If there's an intruder in your house, shoot first and ask question later.

@@spikeng ok.you can shoot..

Yes best example king Prithiviraj Chauhan

Their rough skin didn’t take a bit from the possum.

It's just a possum. They don't have super sharp teeth or insane bite force.

@@Bitchslapper316 yet they would bite your finger off if they wanted to

⁠@@Bitchslapper316 Alright? They still have pretty strong jaws, along with some pretty sharp teeth.

No, they just didn't want to give away the ending.

Lol....I had the impression the possum won.....clickbait

How is it misleading it fought to protect it's babies and failed like a loser

Not so misleading. She fought the lizard. Only the description doesn't reveal the ending...

@KakarotSsj potato Why? Do movie titles should reveal the ending also?

Mist'er Johnson that’s why I stay with the strap

@@mfcannoncannon4597 Damn now I'm imagining the possum pulling out a glock

LololImy( Olb723

The lizard's skin is very tough, unlike that of other predators, so he couldn't feel her bite. The possum did all she could. She knew she couldn't fight him.

Didn't too. But with their claw and small size. Not a doubt

@@Idowu_Balogun I think that tree was on a slant, considering how easily it walked up the tree without really gripping it...

With that streamlined flat body structure, the extremely long tail and those huge talons Varanus is more than capable of scaling most terrains, they're expert swimmers also.

Each day u learn something new

Some monitor luxards are arboreal

It’s ironic that the lizard is somehow the more manageable right pet.

@@reubencaldwell8494 Laceys can be really difficult as pets, they're not like ackies or water monitors, their attitudes are shitty. They can also be really good, but i've seen some really bad attacks on good reptile keepers from laceys, but yeah possums are absolute assholes.

@@Gigan-tp5wi yea agreed but another very common good species would be the Nile monitor and blue tail monitor ( joke)

@@monitorcrazy9410 Yeah, they're very easy pets, but I prefer to recommend croc monitors to beginners (joke)

@@Gigan-tp5wi definitely not varanus salvador but varanus salvadorii

Me too😓

Same man

Me three🙁

Me four

Me five

nice one

not really monitors are like the john wick of africa

Really

And then the eagle ate the possum too

@@Roy_Dudson Aww

painful circle of life ...

If You think an eagle can handle a monitor....you're an idiot

I’m sure glad there’s no giant lizards invading my home and eating my family.

asdg199 For sure, I'm moving, not raising my children in a tree anymore.... too dangerous!!!

asdg199 macro evolution is just a myth.

Allan Brown i sometimes wish a giant lizard would come and eat my family. They drive me CRAZY lol

imran876339 and we would have a much larger population than it.

Only if she had a 500 magnum or an AR 15

Azmeri Liza A 9mm is too weak to stop an intruder.

Enceladus sorry kid animals don't know how to use guns

Enceladus what about if the iguana had a gun as well?

There was an iguana there too?

Better watch how big the mama is if ar9und but prolly won't be because they don't guard their nest

@@monitorcrazy9410 Some monitor lizards and Komodo guard the nest. In addition, monitor lizards usually lay their eggs in durable termite mounds.

Lol I know 🤣

Great fact

Rattlesnake Jake Explores The Internet Technically they are reptiles as birds and dinosaurs are apart of reptilia. Dinosaurs just happen to be closer related to birds than other reptile groups.

Yeah, we must appreciate how dinosaur extinct

Soft

Imagine how people were 5,000 years ago without God’s True Book. How would they have known how they were supposed to live? How would they have known how they were supposed to be in order to please their Creator? So God gave the law of Moses back then. This law was for the people to know how to be. They saw what God expected out of them. God had high expectations from the Israelites. Why shouldn't He? Should He drop His expectations for love and grace? If He drops His expectations to accommodate what man wants, then He compromised His perfection for man’s imperfection. Does a Perfect God compromise His perfection? So God has expectations once He tells His creation how He wants things. His love and grace gives His creation time to change. He is willing to help them change if they ask Him. Then His creation, while repenting or changing to do His will, see His Beauty. This is a relationship formed now with the Creator. If He is the Most Beautiful Being, which He is, how can His creation not want to obey Him? How can His creation not want to please Him? The reason why is because of foolishness. Man loves his own foolishness rather than God’s wisdom, Jn 3:19. Man loves his sin. If anyone loves himself, he will stay in sin. So man who stays in sin rejects his perfect Creator or Father, and exchanges it for his own foolishness. So now fast forward to today where we have God’s True Book. We officially know what God wants. God gave His creation a big help, the Word, to show us how He wants us to live. If we follow His perfect teachings, we all live with perfect peace, love, joy and unity. This is His perfect design for His children's lives. When we go against His perfect design for what we want, sin, we throw away that perfect plan. We throw away that perfect peace, love, joy and unity. Giving up these things is foolish. So sinning against God proves to be the worst plan for us! God wanted to help mankind. God wanted to save man from his foolishness. He wanted to help us the best way possible because He is Good. The best and only way to do it, as God saw fit, was to give mankind His Son. Why? The Son is the Word, Jn 1:1. The Word always obeys the Father's will. The Father's will is spoken through His Word. The Word proceeds forth from the Father's will and mind. So the Word that God speaks is the pure sequel to what was inside the Father's mind and heart. Jesus is that perfection manifest. He is the physical embodiment of God's will and thought. God's will and thought is expressed through His Word. Jesus, the human part, is the perfect, physical expression of God. Jesus, the human part that walked this earth, came to teach us the perfect will of God. How? He did this by example. This is why Jesus walked this earth perfectly without sinning. So Jesus taught us perfectly. He even was willing to die not only death, but the death He did not deserve since He never sinned against God the Father. He chose to give His life. That's why Jesus says no man forces Him to lay down His life, He chose to lay it down, Jn 10:18. God wanted to save mankind. Jesus wants what the Father wants. The Word always obeys the will. He shed even His perfect, pure blood for us. His blood is the fulfillment of perfect obedience to the Father. Why? Because the Son asked 3 times in the Garden, "Take my cup not by my will but by yours." The Father said the Son still had to shed His blood on the cross. The Son obeyed the Father's will over His own. So the blood was shed for that purpose. Nobody else had that kind of blood. Nobody else pleased the Father perfectly like the Son. So now instead of the law of Moses showing us the way to live rightly in God's eyes, we have the Son. This is the New Covenant. In Jesus and His blood, we now obey Him instead of the Mosaic law as part of this new agreement between man and God. So as man wants to live rightly to please His Creator, man now must turn to the Word of the Creator. So obeying the perfect teachings of Jesus brings us to how God wants us to live. The Son conquered the grave. The grave is the end of all who sin. The grave is the payment for sin. Satan founded the grave. How? Because Satan started death by being the first to sin against Almighty God. Jesus destroyed Satan's creation and fulfills the very first prophecy spoken of the Savior in Genesis 3:15. That's why Jesus came to "...destroy the works of the devil," 1 Jn 3:8. Satan came to ruin God's Creation with sin. Jesus came to ruin Satan's creation, death, with perfect obedience, which His blood shed proves. That's why in His blood, there is life. So the Gospel is God's reconciliation with man. How? Only through the Son. If you disobey the Son, you disobey the Father. Jesus says, “He who has seen me has seen the Father,” Jn 14:9. Repent and accept Jesus as Your Lord NOW!!! Then start to read the Gospels and obey His commands. Follow Jesus only, no other man, no religion. Only Jesus.

especially small

Yup, that poor lizard had to get bitten and assaulted just to get breakfast.

Yeah I was pulling for the possum. 😔

Had to reset the run one time though, so no world record possible anymore. Still a good run.

I agree I would pull that lil shit out and tell him what’s up

What if it bit damn that would hurt lol

You must have a hatred for animals and nature then?

Georgios Kalivatsis no I have 2 cats I don’t hate animals and I used to live in the forest so I don’t hate nature try again

@@masteryoda535 My friend, wanting to invade and utterly destroy the natural relationship between predator and prey in an ecosystem you do not belong in and therefore cannot contribute to, does imply a form of disrespect towards the vitality of the natural world. This alone, regardless of anything else, makes me skeptical.

nah he allready ate like 6 hamsters worth of food, that boy is sated

"Doom music plays in background"

Let's see that piece of ship do that against a honey badger and her cub. Mama badger will smack that ship so hard, it will end up landing in the north pole.

@@junofranco6638 A Komodo dragon will easily kill a honey badger. And perenti too.

@@Polosatiy_Varan it would be hard but not impossible

@@junofranco6638 i feel you bro, but that's nature. If you want, there are videos of monitors getting mauled to death by pitbulls

Let the lizard starve!

Hahah

@@nightlightabcd shush your freaking mouth dweeb.

This is how they were created. Kill in order to live.

I want nature to take its course and if that means the monitor lizard gets to eat then so be it.

She should've turned on the in-game ads.

today I learned real life was developed by EA

Hey, no spoilers!

give props to the mom, she showed a valiant effort...

Exactly

@Stock Name and worms dont sympathise with you unless you were charred.

Lol

didn't look like it was doing any fighting it was doing a lot of eating

@Stock Name ahh, in your perfect little world only the "cute" animals survive, yeah? What a pathetic mindset, I urge you to look deeper than that and grow up....

Reptile scales serve as armor and most of the time some tuffer than others

Don't assume the lizard's gender. Rest is ok.

Badum tsss

Thanks not watching it.

And you are laughing 😡😡

Elijah Davis some shameless people like it. These are the kind of psychopaths who join dictator armies and do brutality on civilians.

Mmmmm. I bet they tasted good tho! 😀

The emoji was to the fact it said there was a fight but it was actually a slaughter you mongs

Why! That was beautiful mother nature at work.

@@Rocketpower713 yep... the circle of life.

You soft!!!

Then you better not watch any vids of crocodiles eating zebras!

That’s the monitors trick.. they seem slow and docile until they explode..

@@zacha8934 Very dangerous. I was attacked by a small monkey and it sat a 7 feet away. Without even seeing it move, it had grabbed both my wrists. Don’t know how we survived in nature.

@@parmmohan4603 agreed. I like to believe we must have lost a lot of our instincts over the years.. I’m sure our brains played the big difference back then too..

@@zacha8934 Not sure if you know this but it was fire that made us smarter. When humans began using fire, the jaw muscle shrank and gave room in the head for brain growth. Apes and monkeys don’t have brains as big as ours bcuz they still have huge jaw muscles.

NO ITS NOT

Azmeri Liza THIS MONSTER JUST RUINED MY WEEK END.....😒

It ruined my good night sleep 😪

Azmeri Liza thats how nature works😊

Azmeri Liza Not sad because now the spirit from that possum vessel is released. It was only there to learn what it needed to learn, once learned, it was released from the vessel it first obtained.

You mean opossum?

@@darkseid7799 some people cut the "O" out.

You mean the ones that are commonly devoured by snakes, owls, and hawks? Monitors grow to up to 10 feet in length. You must have bumped your head.

@@gazanever6291 Komodo's grow up to 9ft and they're the largest lizards...

@@able76 largest, not the longest, crocodile monitors grow from 10-11 feet.

more informative than the actual video

You probably have an ecology degree.if not you deserve an honorary one becauss from what i read here you are well read. 100%

"The brushtail possum mother's bite is ineffective" You've obviously never hard a brushtail possum hanging off your forearm. In all honesty, I was barracking for the lace monitor.

Yup, the lizard being fed is the happiest ending this scenario could have had.

Honey badgers dont fuck around

yep just like de white english british empire they robbed, raped and killed innocent kids and that is even worse

Puhhh I could write a book now xD what you mentioned is happening all over the planet... Humans animals, don't separate them its life. Imagine your life is a dream of God, and he lives that dream a septillion times. First 1000s are for sure without problems and all of the best. But then it's getting boring and he wants some unpredictable surprises. No matter if good or bad, it's definitely more exciting. And you are developing this dream to the ultimate experience... Guess what, that's what life is... An unpredictable box of surprises. That's why you love to live... If everything is fine.. Life would be boring. Sound weird but think about it. So it's actually not that bad or our fault if we don't help the opossom... It's life in all his fascination

Depends where I guess, monitors are pretty common throughout Asia

Guru Mohan Yea. The mother could have easily became food for the lizard too by protecting her babies. Usually possums run like hell from monitor lizards. The mother possum didn't stand a chance. Those babies possums had death written all over them when the lizard made the 1st attempt at the babies.

Makes me thankful God have us to tools to protect ourselves and our families.

Guru Mohan Well "DUH" of course a mother's length to protect her babies from any type of treat of danger that might happen in any case!!! That also applies to the emotions of a human female species as well!!!

Badgers are assholes. There's a video of badgers doing this to a poor fox family.

Doubtful, monitor lizards pack the same weapons honey badgers do, plus a whip for a tail, honey badgers also aren’t as big as monitors and quite frankly big monitors don’t care how scary you are, if they think they can eat you, they’ll try to do it.

@ that’s a tiny monitor dude lmao, an adult wouldn’t be scared of a honey badger, you do realize that they can get almost 8 feet long?
