Enjoyable.

There are enough domestic llamas and alpacas in North America for there to be a long-term population. No feral ones that I know of, but not in danger of being extirpated.

I get so excited when I see that you’ve uploaded a new video, I’m always interested in what grouping of animals I’ll get to learn more about next. For an another group you could tackle, I think it would be fun to talk about the Afrotheres. Elephants and the sirenians are iconic beloved groups, while the tenrecs sengis and hyrax I fell kinda fly under the radar of most people.

N with symbol in Spanish on top is more like NJ or NG then gn?

Another great video

Excellent vid, always love a camelid 😊 Always think they’re underrated as a beautiful animal thanks to their goofiness

nice video

Great coverage!

Biggest copperhead i ever saw was nearly 4 feet long.

In North Carolina, on Lake Mattammuskeet, the cottonmouths look more like the Florida Cottonmouth than other cottonmouths in Virginia and Carolina. I will confess, I did not get close enough to look for markings on the head.

I think I have hybrid snakes on my place. They all interbreed. I have a big one that I call a rattleheaded copper moccasin.

Great video!

They almost look like the Vietnamese mossy frogs…I wonder if there’s any connection there. Other than being anurids/ranids, lol.

I totally can’t wait to see you cover the two genus of rattlesnakes because they are the most famous venomous snakes in North America and like they include species like the diamondbacks, Pygmy Rattlesnakes, massasaugas, Rock Rattlesnakes, South American rattlesnakes, dusky rattlesnakes, Ridge nosed rattlesnakes and my favorites the Horned Rattlesnakes aka the Sidewinders.

උනහපුලුවා ශ්‍රී ලංකාවට ආවේණික සතෙක්...රතුදත්ත පොතට ඇතුලත්ව ඇත.

do beavers next. everyone they are related to is extinct.

Do eulipotyphlans and hoatzins

nice video

14:51 if the task of research such morbid things is something you’re comfortable with a video about such incidents would be extremely informative. I had no idea what type of violence conservationist face. You’d think the conservation of animals is something anyone from any cultures no matter temperament or convictions would understand how important conservation is especially as anthropogenic climate change cause a mass extinction.

I really like this video and if you don’t mind me asking but can you do one on the goat antelopes and these so called goat antelopes are not really antelopes but instead they are more closely related to sheep and goats than to regular antelopes like gazelles and they are called goat antelopes because of their physical characteristics which are intermediate between those of the stockily built goats and sheep and regular antelopes with their long legs and the goat antelopes come in many shapes from stocky builds like musk ox and takin to medium sized builds like the serows and gorals and from goat like animals like the mountain goat to long horned species that resemble antelopes like the chiru aka Tibetan antelope and the goat antelopes include the Musk Ox, Takins, Serows, Gorals, Chamois, the Mountain goat and the chiru aka Tibetan antelope.

Your phylogeny video are literally to die for. So informative.

parrots falcons corvids and Caracaras are all related bird lineages this large group originated in Gondwana and spread as the continent slowly drifted apart

Wow such informative videos, I love this kind of stuff and have been really enjoying listening to your videos.

Shame on those who cover up truth

The Pronghorn is a very useless animal in farmland. Their numbers have increased to nuances levels. Eating one is a stinking experience.

Those frist two bucks he showed were nice i would have gladly took any one of them

Wonder if thay will try to dextent the other pronghorn breeds

Your coverage map is off in Oregon, they are found further north and west of what you have. At least as of last week when I was photographing them.

Excellent channel! I hope you get many more subscribers

The pronghorn is genetically closer to .Giraffes than an antelope. You should maybe know your subject matter

Very well done; thank you! I live in Wyoming, in core habitat for this species; they are currently in trouble due to habitat loss, harsh winters some years and drought at other times, along with predation primarily by coyotes but also golden eagles, and... primarily... the energy extraction industry. Their numbers have plummeted all across their range. I have watched them, loved them, studied them and hunted them since 1963.

I live in southern Oregon. I visit my son and his family in Dorris, California, in the far north of that state. Their house is on an enormous hay ranch and they have resident herds of pronghorns that are fascinating to watch. The females and calves run in herds of about 15-20 and a large male runs in the back, presumably for protection. Sometimes the herds converge to form a much larger herd of perhaps 200. This is dependent on time of year, but I don't remember the details of this. Perhaps the separation is done so as not to put too much pressure on resources of one area of water and food. They are beautiful to watch in the distance, migrating back and forth on the fields that are the same golden color as the pronghorns. I had no idea that the pronghorn diverged from the giraffe (was it 10 million years ago?). I made a minor attempt to find out where they came from, as I had read that they were not an antelope. But, it seemed so vague. One source did state that their closest relative was the goat, which I see came much closer to what we now know as the pronghorn. So, thank you for the very complex history of this lovely animal!

Great animals. In northern Mexico and in Arizona near the border, we knew these as berrendos.

You are mistaken about them not being able to jump. Pronghorns have been known to jump over moving semi trucks on I-80. I have talked a trucker who got jumped! That jump cleared 16 feet. Also any scientist that says they are limited to short distances and low speeds like you say, is wrong as well. Their top speed is pretty close to 70mph as they love to pace traffic on I-80. I have seen them pace traffic for 15 minutes which is stunning to say the least! Those little hotrods have every other land mammal beat for speed. They are even faster than a cheetah and can run very long distances at high speed and do so just for fun. It is fairly obvious that the "scientific" data on this species is pretty crappy. On oddity of Pronghorns is that they are very curious animals and not particularly fearful. They do stay to themselves or will congregate with cattle sometimes but it appears that they really are not that interested in domestic cows.

May I add they're delicious

what ate them?

I hunt in my home state of Colorado. I no longer hunt in the mountains for reasons that would start fireball rant about Green politics, John Denver's "Rocky Mountain High," and out of state hunters and greedy land developers. My partner and I hunt Mule Deer and Pronghorn out in the high plains on private ranches where we have known the ranchers for over three decades. Pronghorns, otherwise know as "Speed Goats" or "Prairie Ghosts" are my favorite. They are tough critters and are built for their environment. Their vision is equal to 8 power binoculars. They have huge hearts and tracheas for their physical size; which makes for highly efficient Oxygen/Carbon Dioxide exchange. They can run short spurts clocked at 60+ MPH and lope along for long distances at 25 +/-MPH. They have one real weakness....They are curious beasts!

They're soo cute and goofy! They're the original Muppets. ❤

This is what I look like after my 3rd coffee for the day.

If Trump's wall was ever built it would block pronghorns migration to their breeding areas, so they would probably become extinct overnight.

This was interesting. Thanks👍🏼

The first time I saw prong horns in Montana, I was shocked at how small they are.

Pronghorn have only been timed for a top end speed of a long run. No one has timed its, “bolt,” or “panic, startled,” speed. It may be the titleholder! Go pronghorn!

I can vouche for how they taste, they're pretty good.

I was wondering but can you do videos on the Subfamily crotalinae and the genus nerodia which is nactricinae and I am asking because with the Subfamily Crotalinae it includes all of the venomous snakes of the USA minus the coral snakes and examples of snakes in the Subfamily are Rattlesnakes and the American Moccasins aka Cottonmouths, Copperheads and Cantils and I would love to see a video on the genus nerodia because in the genus is a species called the common water snake and they live where I live but I would like to see a video on them not just because they are from where I live but because water snakes are mistaken for the venomous cottonmouth and they are being unfairly persecuted by some people simply because they think that they are cottonmouths and because people assume that every snake seen in or around water is a cottonmouth.

i've actually seen pronghorns outside of the grand tetons NP jump a fence

That pronghorn range map seems inaccurate since I've seen pronghorn in alberta further west than the 1976 range shows and the modern range shows no presence in alberta at all.

Thank you for this video. I learned a lot of new things.

I see them all the time here in southeast new mexico. They're definitely beautiful animals, and at least in my area, seem to have a very good population. There's herds of them between Tatum and Roswell.

I got to some of these on a trip to Theodore Roosevelt national park, and it’s almost impossible to get less than half a mile away from them without them running off. You really have to spot them from a distance
