Great video! I know it wasn't at all the focus of the message but those butterflies were incredible 😍

thanks

Love all the conservation effort and trail cam videos

Seems like if you clams or oysters it would help with the algae problem would help build the reef. Help fish hide better. Maybe some little strings of oysters on the bottom eventually the whole frame would be covered😮

Well done guys for getting these reptiles to release back into the wild.

Maybe intense tree planting like Japanese urban forests??

This applied nucleation looks very promising. I hadn't heard of it before. Will you also be testing the Miyawaki method on faster regrowth? I'm curious to see your future data on these different growing methods. You're doing great work!

The boa's, such gorgeous patterns and colours! Keep up the good work, amazing what you have accomplished so far.

They should have walked away from the area after they released that first Boa. As it was clearly stressed out and taking a defensive stance. Hanging around and filming it was only causing it to be more agitated. The best releases are done quickly and quietly so that the animal is left alone as fast as possible so it doesn't get too stressed. It's also not great to release that many animals at the same time as they will all look for an escape path and because they were fully surrounded by people when the first boa was brought out it went right into attack mode. I get everyone wanted to watch the release and film it, but that's putting their wants above the needs of the animals.

Can you guys rewind SoCal forests that have burnt from wildfires?

Keep in mind with the disturbance of the fire and additionally the following rain the high chance of any potential remnant native seed bank may have a chance to regenerate. Possibly species that have yet to of been recorded at the site. Some seed will survive in the soil for decades that may predate that piece of land conversion to pasture. Keep your eyes open.

Grass will steal nutrients and kill trees. If there are trees you want to save, remove all grass from the dripline. Pull it out by the roots. I know you guys say you're trying to stop grazing, but ironically, goats or sheep purposefully overgrazing could help remove the grass and turn it into fertilizer. If livestock aren't an option, gather dead wood and rent a large mulcher. Where will you source the trees? Your own forest! Rooting gel on clippings. Gather local seeds. Get a few hundred saplings rooting ASAP so they will be ready in a few months. Ecosia helps build tree nurseries so projects save money. Maybe they can help you guys.

That introduction qas so unnecessary

You guys should take a look at sytropic agriculture. The same techniques that are being used in the Great Green Wall of Africa

I congratulate you on doing this re-wilding research. Your practical experiments are immensely useful in this field. (pardon the pun)0

Amazing work! Comment for the algorithm 😊

The applied nucleation sounds very interesting. Will you create a local tree nusery as a part of this process?

Hey, I looked up saboya grass and if it really is Panicum maximum you have a seriously hard grass to remove from an ecosystem. In Florida we have the pine savanna ecosystem that is managed by fire every 1-5 years and it is one of the most prominent and difficult to remove invasives because it likes fire so much. In the land I am managing we have had best luck with glyphosate, and fluziflop herbicides and you have you kill them before they can flower and seed again or at least cut them back. For different treatments at the site I would recommend solarization, soil inversion, herbicide, continual tilling to exhaust the seedbank first, or scalping the top soil and starting from scratch (lots of disturbance though)

Tell Freddy that his passion for animals is inspiring. 🥰

Great that you have so many organisations involved in this and by that hopefully you can get more things done and faster and if you help develop people in a local university you have a chance that local people get an education in this field and helps improve even bigger areas! Like rings on the water

Maybe you should try to get a little sowing of trees and plants of seeds from your area and maybe also from plants that used to be there. Either that or help some neighbours starting one so that more trees can be planted on your place and on your neighbours (with their permission). The trees will help kill off the grass once they become bigger and denser

Thank you guys for your hard work! Freddy seems like such a nice guy with a lot of passion. Muchas gracias!

Great work

Yaay, my other favorite project That shot of the butterfly land on the snake was beautiful

I wonder if the Miyawaki method for growing forest fast, by planting the trees close together, is relevant here. May be Amazonian forest is naturally so dense that the method is already used by Nature.

Hope some beebers move in!

The hangry boa with the butterfly on it's face is why everyone should support these scientists and their work

I wish you had a timlaps offf the burned area just to show the change over a months.

What was the large male animal that was found dead? Paca?

nice video

Hi. Thank you for your efforts. Would it be possible to include information about mushrooms /fungi post fire and also in the forest?

Deep mulch can help suppress these forms of tropical grass. Some will still get through but it will give the trees a head start until they can shade it out. It is one of the only ways to do it without poison.

who started the fire?

Nice update! Awesome to see the wildlife captured on trail cams, specially the Ruddy quail-dove (Geotrygon montana)

Thanks for the update! So cool to see many groups united by the common calling of conservation!

💞💗💕💖💓

Is setting up a motion detecting camera trap harder by a constantly moving background like that little brook at the end?

on the point that some ppl eat the turtles if you dont have anything else i can understand it. Yes i am not happy about it but is not a eazy fix. great video btw.

let's call this area: Phoenix patch

a l g o - j a z z Thx for the vid, thx for what youre doing..

Is bracken a concern or not?

This is seriously so wonderful ❤❤❤

love seeing these projects get done, thanks for helping!

Add the euro equivalent of large mouth bass to eat said crayfish

Great video Yudi (and Chansa)!Looking forward to collecting more sound surveys at our restoration sites throughout the coming seasons 🩵

I just recently come across other videos of coral reefs & just how well they are doing. Mossy earth is recreating a paradise once lost. So I can understand this regrowth & all the work going into this project what made the corals die in the first place? Or is this an on going process of life where some parts of the tropical seas corals die off & other sections grow & provide a magnificent reef?

Would be interesting to see if playing “healthy reef noise” in a restored reef would boost the respiration rate
