Whoop whoop!! How did I not see this yet 😭 this is amazing Lucy! Really, really amazing! When’s the next one coming out? Yes, I am currently catching up on all your content I missed. And yes, I should be doing my assignment right now.
one time i saw a stargazer on a documentary and for maybe a decade after that i was terrified of walking into the ocean in case one got my foot or something. my fear only ended when my father told me that stargazers are on the bottom of the ocean, not the shore line. thanks dad!
Glad your videos showed up in my recommended one day so I could find your channel Lucy! I wasn't subscribed before, I'd forgotten to! Also I know that feeling too little tripod fish...
my favorite sea documentary is about the lembeh straight it's literally just mud and seems quite boring at first glance but they use macrophotography and reveal a colorful, fascinating world
I am so thankful I stumbled across your channel. I loved this video to bits. I think my favorite part was the post-poop zoomies. Simple pleasures for simple minds :) I look forward to devouring all of your videos. Fantastic work!
so thankful the youtube algorithm brought me to your channel. great informative videos, personality, and meme/comments. hope you make this your full time job and start posting videos consistently since i’ve already binged all of yours
14:07 "You've got two empty halves of coconuts and you're bangin' 'em together!" "So? We have ridden since the marine snows of winter have blanketed this strait!"
loved this deep dive! wish i could pay you to make hour long documentaries / podcasts; they're so informative (and engaging! usually find myself unable to concentrate otherwise haha) 😁 (also link for the other documentary is broken for me?? can't seem to access it, at least on mobile)
hey. i was realy curious about that giant naked foraminifera picture that looked like cottage cheese, but it seems that i cant find it over the internet, nor do i find informations about it. do you have recommandations over where i could find documentation on this subject?
My brain is part dog so one of my favourite things to do on the mud flats of the West Coast of my province (British Columbia, Canada,) is run around giggling like a maniac as all the geoducks (pronounced 'gooey-ducks') squirt water a metre into the air trying to scare me off. 😂 (If you have never seen a geoduck you should look them up, they're a species of clam which has an unfortunately extremely close resemblance to a human phallus.) I also get stupidly excited by beach crabs and by chasing seagulls, so yeah, I was definitely a dog in a past life.😅😂
Trying to assign gender to every form of life on Earth will send you down quite a rabbit hole. Gamete size is the currently acceptable method of assigning gender. Which has it's flaws when the two gametes are about the same size, the same animal switches it role, or neither/both applies. Fun rabbit hole. The aerobic vs anaerobic thing in sediment was fascinating. I'm curious if this also occurs on land as I've definitely noticed similar layers far away from the ocean. The frog fish shown at the very end is really surprising in how lethal (to it's food) it can be. It has a ridiculously high success rate while hunting.
Exactly who would keep an animal in a tank and not feed it for years? That's horrendous and is why myself and science keep parting ways because a fair few seem to use "experiments " as a way to excuse their horrific treatment of other life forms. I am sure science would have been happy knowing they can survive for many months without taking it to these extremes. I think this sort of thing, in fact ALL animal experimentation is unconscionable. They often bear no resemblance to how humans react, in drug trials for instance, amd think its about time all animal experiments were outlawed. Btw, did you actually answer the question posed at the beginning? I can't stomach watching the rest now.
I can see it now - a glorious Communist film about hermit crabs. The hermit crabs who were fortunate enough to have found a nice shell are systematically rounded up and brutally exterminated. The spoils will be said to be given to the people (err, crabs), but simply transferred to the elites controlling the society lol
