Smart Bird Uses Bread as Bait for Fishing | Super Smart Animals | BBC Earth 

like that the fish that steal the bait off of a hook, and then you reel in nothing

U want bread ...three dollars

That part proves just how freakishly smart he really is, just using breads as bait is one thing, but making sure no bait wasted! Wow! Just WOW!

Bulbophile It’s a type of koi, I believe.

Smart bird

was looking for a quote like this! nice!

cute - on give a man

all he needs to do is baking his own bread..

Heron's already KNOW how to get fish, just using bread is easier. So if he didn't have bread left, he could just dive to get some fish.

Yes!😂

thats racist reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

George How?

true

David Boucard so true

😂👌

Ofcourse it is. Animals are one trick wonders mostly, and do almost everything imaginable better than humans.

Mortalomena ...Not really. Herons aren't in danger over fishing because they're too good at it. That's so stupid It should go without saying that it's wrong.

Erik Holgersson they are not as good as me I cawt a sword fish it jumped out of the water and stabbed my friend through the leg now my friend has a sword fish nose stuck in his leg

It takes me a whole day to catch a couple fish at the lake.

Erik Holgersson maybe us terrible fishing people can learn a thing or 2 from nature when it comes to fishing. What do you think?

Lol

And he's also pretty smart

But will he blend?

So he isn’t smart then?

i love ur photo

Indeed...

This is a nice bread. I like... bread. Blub Blub.

Then Kagushino got ya!!! or you're probably too big to eat, in that case NO BREAD TODAY!!

Ah thanks man you know you're a cool... waaaaaaait just a minute I know what you up to and I must good bird you almost had fooled there good show, good bird good show.

Chairman Mao Incarnate: This bird is smarter than the Chinese pirated version of BBC, imagine making society cashless thru mobile phone payment, the West controls and dumb down third world countries by making a totally incompetent elite that sucks Western duck and that is the pirated local version of the media. There is credit card for that, which makes use of western institutions like law, accountants, banking, technology, etc., this stupid mobile payment is a step back into caveman dumbness. China will never spawn innovation if dumb down pirated version of the local media takes over the Chinese Government, no doubt this adoption of media Taiwanese, Singaporean, South Korean, Japan, Hong Kong setup of the media to control third world countries will come to pass and happen to China also if this stupid mobile payment happens everywhere across China. No one will want to work and the talented will never organized and realized there potential if all it takes to conquer China is the pirated dumb down version of the local version of the Western media. Let's just hope this lazy and incompetent people will not bite the world back in the ass for example if they control the PLA and then send North Korean drones to rampage in Russia and the rest of Western Europe, Central Asia, etc., I mean who knows why bother trade when you can just conquer people outright. When 3 million North Koreans, twice that Chinese and a million South Koreans decide to rampage I highly doubt the Russian bear will put up a fight. That could happen with South Korea's Wanda group becoming big and all in China.

Want some wee- I mean bread?

He can play the Stock Market well. Specializes in managing risk/reward..... knows if an investment smells fishy.....

@@thefateofslate9095 If it smells fishy, then it's good for him.

you just made my morning 🤣

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Birds tend to look like that XD

Watched the video before reading your comment and I thought "Wow what a smart bird". Then I read your comment and laughed really hard. So, I watched it again and I couldn't stop laughing!!! You made my day

The Fate of Slate i see what you did there 😂

I do to, brilliant lol

I'm Christian but that's funny. I bet Jesus laughed on your commit!!!! Lol

I think you made God laugh on this one

Funny enough I had the weird thought that this is in fact the same sort of thing Jesus did to collect a ton of fish with just a bit of bread. I was researching using bread as bait on RU-vid and this came up. Noticed how a TON of fish came after that little bit of bread? As if it was some sort of feeding frenzy? Imagine just setting a net out for fish and catching little to nothing. Toss a loaf of bread into the water atop the net after casting it into the water. Watch as a frenzy of fish gather around the loaf shredding it to pieces. Once you can no longer see any bread remaining immediately pull in the net. See how much more fish you catch using such a method. This is an experiment for me to try someday.

NeverLooksAtComments "heey gimme back my bread!"

He looks so old too:'v

He's surely throwing tantrums lol

poor Koi was heartbroken

Wow, stating something that literally happened in the video everyone is watch.

Ji F. I doubt that it is an instinct, bacause this behaviour is almost too complex. Maybe they just learn it from each other ;)

Or maybe he watch discovery channel on youtube,, xD

cool does only the Heron do it or do other birds know how to do that too

Even Crocodiles balance sticks on their snouts to catch birds

With night herons (Auku'u) it appears to be learned, though it may be instinctive for green herons.

Edgy.

Zachary Rose But true.

Hank would not have voted for Trump!

Sad... But this is true

nightlightabcd hank probably wouldn't vote for Hillary either

Morru Qu'aan humans r over privileged compared to this heron

Power Inqu'aanate more like most people

Inqu'aanate Demonstrating more restraint than most adults!

You misspelled adults

@Tsinat Gebreselassie and yet you didnt feel the need to comment that about the other comments without punctuation...... god you need to get over yourself, noone attacked you, noone was talking to you, get a sense of humor and learn to recognize a joke, especially one as hired and played out as the one I made

and punish

*Over exaggerated gasp*

Vola Ambinintsoa 👍🏼👍🏼

Vola Ambinintsoa haha

Vola Ambinintsoa second lesson is humility, know when to pull out and don't go for crazy goals, you'll only lose your bread

Alex C true cause he didn't care about the big fish! :)

Vola Ambinintsoa glad to see someone finding a lesson to learn from this video

Saaame

True that

That nigga older than the universe. He's probably dead. 😂

They’re actually black swans and they’re so beautiful

Janeil Nold same.

Janeil Nold Maybe he copied the humans which always drop bread in the water but never catch the fish... He probably feels very superior over all these dumb humans :P

seth why is bread bad for birds

At best, it's essentially junk food - lots of calories with very little nutritional value. If they eat too much of it though, they can get malnourished. In extreme cases, a high-calorie diet can cause ducks and geese to develop a condition called 'Angel Wing' which makes them unable to fly (look it up on Wikipedia for pictures and more info). A little bit of bread isn't really harmful, but the problem is that in many parks many people are feeding birds bread all the time, and it ends up making up a huge portion of their diet. Another problem is that people often feed birds leftover stale or mouldy bread to get rid of it. Mould is just as bad for birds as it is for us and can make them very sick.

seth ... I agree 100% .. There is ALL signs by the docks and beach in my town .. reminding people not to feed the wild ducks bread ... It's actually against the law .. but if the city employees catch anyone ... they concentrate on education, rather than fines .. and they'll ask the offenders to give them the rest of the bread too

Ducks aren’t with lettuce

seth wholemeal is passable though.

Daddy likes his sushi full

Cool profile pic

It was his bread--so he can do with it as he likes.

Ronga Ronga geek
