Mountain goat: "you can't get me up here." Nature: "Cue the eagles." Eagles: "they are too heavy. We need practice." Nature: "avalanche you're up. Get those damn goats"
I once hiked the rail line they built for the construction of hoover dam. I came out of one of the tunnels and found myself face to face with a goat. He was about 20 feet up the cliff. Took a step toward me. I took a step back and raised my arms and yelled. He turned tail and was 500 feet above me it 10 seconds. The most incredible thing I experienced in Nevada.
And you know what I believe you I was only gonna mess around and say I don’t believe you at first but this guy beat me to it lol but I do believe you I seen the videos of How they climb dams like that
Imagine the goats approached the humans in a friendly manner and the humans didn't interpret the approach as an attack. A pretty cool symbiosis could form. They get the our sweat and we get to pet them haha. It's a win-win situation.
It has a great way that he teaches all of us, with great sense of humour, I've noticed he uses some memes in his videos, and that what makes his videos educating and entertaining
30 years ago I was hiking in the Olympic and some goats visited the camp. They started licking my sweat soaked pack so I put salt on my hand and they licked it off. They have a tongue like 00 sandpaper. No damage done and both of us enjoyed the encounter.
One thing that is not very good about hunting them is if you shoot them it’s like an eagle they fall off and everything breaks so you have to find a way to kill them and keep them exactly where they are. Now you have to get to them that’s very hard then get them down
I never knew of the Eagles pulling goats over ledge to plummet them to their deaths. I knew about the swimming yet did not know why? Thank You for the new fresh input.
@@Maria-ui2ud I know but it's still sad tho..imagine just spending your whole life worrying about being eaten or not having enough food to eat..you're a human being so I don't expect you to understand unless you've gone through a similar situation or experience
@@amalabuzar303 If the eagles were not there, the goats would multiply until most of them starve to death. Then the flora would recover and it starts anew. It's far less cruel to have some predators then to starve to death.
I keep being impressed by editing of those videos. And then there is perfect combination of entertainment and education covered by lots of research. Just amazing
I once saw a video of a hawk throwing a goat off a mountain and me and my whole cross country starting freaking out cause it was so gnarly. And we didn’t realize the national anthem was playing at our meet... our coach was mad lol
Among all animal videos, I like videos about the mountain goats, best. Because of it's anti- gravitational moments, it is near to impossible for other animals to imitate the mountain goat's vertical climbing 😍
"Spider Goats?" For the first few seconds, I thought he was just kidding, until I learn that those kind of goats are actually a thing 😂 Very great video once again pal! 👏 I really enjoy your work! Your videos really make my day much better and they are just ao satisfying to watch. Thanks for that!
eagle: COME HERE goat: approaching me instead of running away? eagle: drags goat to death *goat dies* all the goats: world. war. 3. all the eagles: o k me: *grabs popcorn* ah, nothing better then watching eagles, goats slaughter eachother (this is just a joke)
The whole joke is way too long, you dont have to “this is a joke” so everyone understands it is ,if it isn’t then what the fuck is it? And no the joke isn’t funny, theres no meme references, no pun making the joke even worse than dad jokes
@@daisus506 shut up whats your problem he just wanted to comment even if the joke is bad its fine sheesh and he just said it was a joke so nobody thinks he like killing animals why exactly did you get mad its a normal joke
Dude this was one of my favorite videos from WATOP haha! I laughed a lot n it was educational. I live in the Rockies so when I climb n see goats I am always so fascinated by their skills n it's really cool seeing how close you can get to them haha.
*Goats:* overpowered, can't be defeated by land animals including humans, lives on mountains with nasty conditions that only goats can live by. *Weaknesses:* Any Big fucking flying Raptors! *Eagles:* ahh delicious buffet~ 😈
Fun fact: not only mountain goats learned to breath thin air, humans did too, There are 3 human types that i know of Who live in the middle of the sea for decades can stay underwater for a loong time and see underwater Second are people who live in mountains can breath thin air and do much more hard work than normals And third are.. us people at home and sitting on the couch all day and watching videos
My dude, supplying us with amazing videos! ❤️ National Geographic is nothing to you, in my opinion, I’m sure a lot of people can say the same! You teach me a lot more than you think. 💭 Trust me, I have an addiction to your videos 😭 I really want the face cam back even if you wear the mask as it “soothes” me some how and to me it adds more detail to show someone is talking! Other people may find it weird that you wear the mask when solo, but I kinda like it, I really hope it comes back! Unfortunately, you will probably never see this but if you do… I love your videos, you work so hard and show you put effort into all your videos! (Sorry for writing an essay) Have a good day and stay safe everyone! ❤️
