Fun fact: the sound of the MGM lion roaring is not actually a lion, but rather a tiger roar. Lion roars are not very impressive, so they’re often dubbed with a tiger instead. In a similar vein, the noise you hear when you think of a bald eagle is not an eagle call - it’s a red-tailed hawk. Eagles sound more like seagulls

This Christmas I watched the Jim Carrey Grinch and decided to look up the actor for Max the dog, since my brother and I noticed that Max seemed to have slightly different fur lengths or facial features in different scenes. It turns out we were right, Max was performed by 6 or 7 different dogs. The story is actually pretty wholesome. The trainer adopted them all from animal shelters around LA. They had dog-safe dyed fur (if necessary) to make them the same color, and a head piece to make Max's shaggy ears. The reason there were so many dog actors is because Max has such a diverse role in the movie, so if one dog wasn't comfortable learning or performing a trick or scene, a different dog would do it. They went to great lengths to make sure the dogs were never stressed or frightened, no matter how chaotic a scene may need to look after post production, so it's actually pretty interesting to read about how they figured out different aspects of filming to keep the dogs comfortable. After the movie was done, all the dogs were retired and adopted out to the trainer's friends, family, and coworkers.

I wish Hollywood did more to highlight that these animals are yes, actors in their own right- but their trainers need acknowledgement too! Animal training isn't easy, it requires hours of dedication, patience, and they have to act as their animal's advocate on set as well. Trainers make these on-screen moments possible, but I almost never hear anything about them. :/

@@nevaeh9125 there's pretty good evidence that elephants actually do have some understanding of what a skeleton is. They may not have a scientific or physiological understanding of what the skeleton does in the body, like we do. But wild elephants return to the bones of important family members year after year. They understand that the bones are the physical remains of their beloved and missed family member. Although, this is a sort of "cultural" practice of elephants, so unless she was born in the wild and had experienced this practice before being captured, she may not have that deep of an understanding.

Random story about working with animals on movie sets. I was working once as a staff member on a movie with pretty big Hollywood names in it. There was a scene where the Big Name guy enters the house and two greyhounds greet him. Problem was, dogs were more interested in literally everything and everyone else than the Big Name guy. Their coaches were doing anything they could, but nope, as soon as we started shootings, dogs were out. Finally a wife of the other actor grabed her sandwitch, removed ham from it, smeared the ham all over the Big Name's hands and stuffed pockets of his Armani suit with that ham. Only that made the dogs a least a little interested in him and we could end the scene...

I have human siblings, but he is the one I lived with the longest, and he was the only one I ever actually loved (long story). When he died, I was a little shocked by how severely hard it hit me since I have had countless pets in my nearly 30 years around the sun. But I realized that his death hit me so hard, because he wasn't a pet. He was my little brother who happened to have a tail. He was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen. He was simultaneously kind, protective, nuturing and jealous, greedy, and sneaky. Cheers to all pets who are actually just family members who just happen to be not human.

They used to have the PATSY Awards in Hollywood. These were given yearly to animals who starred in Motion Pictures and in Television. Francis the Talking Mule was the first winner in 1951. The awards continued until 1986 when cancelled due to lack of funding. The Genesis Awards were established in 1986 by The Humane Society of US to recognize individuals and media productions which raise public awareness of animal issues. Past winners include Jacques Cousteau, Star Trek IV The Voyage Home, Babe, Gorillas in the Mist, Law and Order. Thr British have The Fido Awards which are awarded to the best dog with a standout performance in a motion picture. These began in 2006, and the 2007 Fido went to the Corgis in the movie "The Queen". In 2016 the American Humane Society established the Pawscars to recognize the most outstanding performance of an animal in film and television. Among the winners that year were Tug won Best Magical Cow "Into the Woods", and Wolfie won Best Puppy Under Pressure "The Interview". Also Classic Animals were recognized with awards like Lassie.

You should have talked about the 1981 movie "Roar", written and directed by Noel Marshall and also starring Tippi Hedren and Melanie Griffith (Dakota Johnson's real-life mom AND grandma), which has an absolutely BONKERS backstory and really goes to show how how wrong things can go when you try to make movies with wild animals (mostly lions and tigers in this case).

In the great depression in Australia, everyone was obsessed with a race horse called Phar Lap. There was mania, merchandise, rare film footage, and a scandalous sabotaging murder. He's still on display at the Melbourne Museum and whilst I don't care for gambling, I kinda get why everyone was so taken by him. Beautiful horse and a tragic story, worth checking out.

Not only do the animals deserve more recognition, but the trainers deserve so much, too. They work so hard to get the animals to do what is needed for a take. That being said, I don't think animals should be able to be nominated for awards in the same categories as humans. They would win because they're a cute animal and no other reason. It's an unfair advantage. If there was a category specifically for animal actors, that might be fine.

Like being childfree, I assumed all the dogfree people were complaining about the social stigma of not liking dogs or not wanting to be around them. Didn't realize people actually disliked dogs that much just like I'm child free but don't dislike the idea of kids, I just don't want to be around them for extended periods.

thank you so much for the emphasis on the general mistreatment and ignorance towards horses, they're such cool animals and really did (and still do) carry a LOT of the film industry. as someone who has had horses my whole life they're so so important to me and are so special, it's nice to see them get a proper spotlight for once as more than just 'stupid' work animals or machines

"Hidalgo" with Viggo Mortenson, amazing chemistry between horse and human, testimony to the power of Love over cruelty. The Bear" from the 1980's or 90's French movie, starring Bart, told from Bear POV, very little human dialog, actual Bear vocalizations. And for the over-the-top ridiculous, the Benji the Dog Franchise from the 70's.

If you don't know, it will make you cry and not in a good heartfelt way, but rather an I can't believe that they would do that kind of way. Hint, much of the footage was made outside the United States where apparently they didn't care what animals get hurt or killed to make the movie.

In 1975 I moved to Apple Valley, CA about 1/2 mile from Roy and Dale. I tried to sell her Avon once. She declined graciously and thanked me for saying I loved the show as a kid. I enjoyed the museum until I got to the room with cars and taxidermied animals. I didn't know Trigger had been stuffed. Trigger was always my favorite character so it was a terrible shock to teenage me. Bullet the dog was beside Trigger. When I saw that his taxidermied hunting trophies included a baby seal, I was very disappointed. Different generations value different things. Individuals may vary. Roy could love his animals but I can't imagine him calling them furbabies and wondering what they're thinking.✌🖖

can't believe you mentioned Benji. That dog was IT for me when I was growing up! Any TV special that Benji was in my parents would let me stay up late or watch during dinner (TV during dinner was a bit no no usually since my family believed in Social Interaction at Dinner). Not for Benji though. Norms didn't apply if Benji was involved. And then, as an adult, no one else ever mentions Benji or admits they ever saw him on TV and I kind of felt like me and the imdb page were the only ones from an alternate Benji dimension. He only got one line in your video and yet that's enough to delight me to no end.Thanks for that. And as an aside - I think the Oscars should be ONLY animals. Then I'd actually watch them.

I hadn't thought about the museum in awhile, so seeing this video mention it was a refreshing memory (even though it is morbid that Trigger was taxidermied).

From what I recall reading about, Rin Tin Tin was nominated for best actor at the first academy awards, mostly because the concept of an award show wasn't taken very seriously.

As a horse-crazy child of the 1950s I was less interested in the actors riding the horses than the horses themselves. I ranked shows by how much I liked the horse(s), the flashier the better! Thus, one of my favorites was The Cisco Kid, which featured Cisco's gorgeous pinto "Diablo." We lived in Southern California and for many years attended the Tournament of Roses Parade. The equestrian units were my favorites (naturally) and I got to see many of my favorite equestrian stars in person, including Diablo. I guess he had someone on his back, like I cared!
