Don't worry about filming your animals, at all. This law in question is entirely about not using your property as a zoo like destination for people to walk around and look at the animals. As a permit holder for wild-life rehab, you are recognized by the government as a human agent for said rehabilitation because you have the experience and education to get to the ultimate goal of releasing the animals back into the wild. Allowing people onto the property who are not working towards this goal would probably run counter to the goal by normalizing human presence and/or distract the permit holder from focusing on the job.
Also unless that section was included in the 2021 amendment that law was made in made in 1997 so I doubt the intent of it was ever in relation to the internet.
Except we don't want Kevin hurt, he's a long-time 'super -star', the original of the Urban Farm before this project was moved to the big land Waco. We love Kevin for all his quirks & poor nesting of his eggs....( not hurting Ben) Just as Dababy & Big Ounce are originals.
Can someone explain if that one’s true? I’ve tried googling it and every article talks about alligators. I’m curious about crocodile crocodilians like the saltwater or Nile. But Google seems to think that alligator is a total synonym which is very annoying. Are any permits needed for crocodiles in texas?

I'd love to be a vet when I grow up and even though my parents have told me that animals do die in the field (also known from experience) I still really want to be able to save animals lives =)
*Hey Uncle Ben!* 3:47 *Those are apple snail eggs, they are extremely invasive in Texas, despite the contrary they do not tend to carry diseases that could harm you but i would squish them with something other than your hand/foot (if you use your foot just clean it with soap and hot water) just incase so that if they're carrying disease they don’t spread to your animals (due to how exotic they are it will most likely be more dangerous). So please don't ignore them becausethey will harm the wildlife! Also stay safe xx* 😂❤
I dont know if they are now, but they were really bad in Louisiana too. once they appear they spread quickly, but where I lived in the suburbs no one killed them because no one would chill out in their front yards unless it was to cut grass or make their way to their car.
Interestingly enough, Florida's native apple snails in the Everglades are in danger because habitat destruction. Their dip in population lead to the snail kite population getting hit hard. Although invasive apple snails have usurped the native Florida apple snail, at least they helped stabilize the kite population.
yeah i realized they're snail/slug eggs because the shape and color. In my father house here in argentina (he lives in a rural zone) it's infestated of those eggs, specially in the outside ditches
@@nicholas6497 Yeah, but it's only fulfilling if you can handle it right? Otherwise you'd probably just end up doing more harm for the animals than good. That's why I'm so happy people like Ben exist to handle our poor psychopath Kevin :D!

As dark as this ending was…mad props man. Like seriously. Shedding even a little light on the dark parts is pretty rare. Most people think it’s just hanging out with animals all day without considering the reality of a day to day life. I appreciate you even giving a minute to the dark side.

You guys are all truly a blessing to our world! (Except Gort, on account of him eating my son and all)
I really appreciate hearing the more serious and real side of rehabbing when you do these videos. This one was really informative and honestly makes me respect every rehabber so much more. My respect was already high but knowing just how many animals are taken in and helped heals my faith in people. Plus hearing all the work you do and help you've done nearly brought a tear to my eye, you people deserve all the love and support you can get. Thank you Uncle Ben (Also Big ounce falling off the couch was very funny, what a perfect little creature)
Ah yes, this video highlights so well how utterly stupid and harmful some of our laws are. Everyone gets told its illegal and bad to help wild animals. Yet when you do, and it requires actual funding to help them, government goes NOPE to money, so the injured ones get their version of the gas chamber. Instead of allowing them to heal and be taken in by people that could very well care for them... We rather boost populations of "exotic" animals imported from other countries than I own wildlife as we ruin ecosystems. Meanwhile practically every animal that goes into human care gets a much longer lifespan, flourishes in population, and overall just needs extra education to understand like any pet. Such a great liberal made law from 1914 that we must follow...
Mad respect for showing the truth behind what really goes on rehabbing animals even at the sake of less views.. As someone who has lived on a farm and tried rescuing every sick/injured creature I've come across... there's been many animals I've had to bury after 100s even thousands of $s and weeks of trying to save them to no avail.😔 I remember every single one I've lost.. but the ones who make it are the ones I cherish. You're truly doing the lords work Uncle Rescuer Ben. Thank you ❤
@@lala_lakeypoo When I had tadpoles I just had them in a 10 gallon tank with algae. They mostly eat algae and you can also feed them some flaky fish food. Just get a net and put them in a tank with some of the water from the pool, they should be fine as long as the water stays nice and green with algae. You can also get some water plants like duckweed and watercress like I did to provide them shelter and a place to climb onto once they start growing their legs. I never read anything on tadpoles so you should do your own research to make sure this is all fine but it worked out for my little pacific tree frogs from a couple years ago. :)
Let’s just appreciate Kevin, the unsung hero. Is he a doofus? Yeah maybe. Does he literally bite the hand that feeds him? Yes. Do his attacks upset Uncle Ben? Yeah sometimes. However does he entertain us? Yes! Is he great at protecting the farm? Yes! Do we love him even with his flaws? Absolutely! Keep being you Kevin, in any other situation you wouldn’t be allowed to due to well… you know. Luckily Uncle Ben has the strength, patience, and love to allow Kevin to be himself. Salute to you good sir 🫡
Kevin fights the good fight even if he doesn’t realize it in the slightest. We love kevins determination to dominate all beings in the universe good and especially bad. Even if he went overboard that one time.
@@RealxKNS I believe they are referring to either: How to Hand Catch a Coyote (feeding Big Ounce) &/or Catching the Coyote who ate my Chickens. (By Hand)
Uncle Ben is such a gift to this world. Rehabbing all these animals, educating people about wildlife and animal rehab, promoting other rehab facilities, and even providing us with hilarious and entertaining videos along the way. ❤
Hey Uncle Ben, those clusters of pink eggs are from an Apple Snail. They have both gills and lungs, which is pretty cool. There are a few genera native to the southern U.S. and that along with the egg clusters narrows it down to Pomacea or Asolene.
I can't get enough of Big Ounces little yelp! When he yelped himself of the couch I had to keep going back like 5 times watching it. He is soooooo cute 🦫🥰
It's amazing that a young guy that quit his job one day to make videos about his ranch is doing so much good in the world. Your videos are always a great laugh but also a huge inspiration to everyone. Thank you for making these videos and publishing meaningful educational fun content on the cringe pile of crap that is TH-cam, Ben.
If you think TH-cam is a “cringe pile of crap” you must be using it differently than I do. There are absolutely wonderful channels out there if you look for them. I’ve almost completely stopped watching “regular” TV since I’ve found so many high quality educational and fun TH-cam channels.
@@jagpilotohio For that it's pretty good, but if you touch a topic with minimal controversy yt act like an a-hole, and start censoring and doing some unfair stuff to those channel owners.
The goats fighting Kevin is something I never thought I’d need. Kevin the immovable object found a worthy opponent, the unstoppable force of goat. Rest in peas Big Ounce, Your service is forever appreciated
Hard to imagine Farmer Uncle Doctor Special Rescue Agent Ben being so able to defend himself from constant attack and simultaneously rescue and heal all his other sweet children.
Some people may look at this as a meme/animal’s rescue channel but you truly do great work and connect with a audience that others may not. Can’t wait to see the rehab ranch grow more then I already have. You truly doing great work. And more people should appreciate the sacrifices you take finaclily and mentally and physically to do this. Love you brotha. Thanks for the great work you do to provide for animals other people would of have given up on 🖤😊
@@sante-1814 imagine looking over the message for punctuality. Your clearly a negative person. I feel bad for you. Think about other people and what they learned from there environment. Your not showing the message of this channel with that negative energy. Imagine watching addicts recover then dissing on a common trait of them. Weird dude.. don’t follow channels and be a complete troll cuz you don’t understand addiction and non educated people who suffered from not getting education cuz of there own addiction/poverty/environment.. your ruining this man’s message by trying to be “smart”
The pink blob things are most likely Island apple snail eggs, they’re actually invasive in Florida and West Texas so you probably did a good thing crushing them.
He should show the living prey hunting part of wildlife rehab. It's not inappropriate for young viewers, it's educational. Kids nowadays are getting softened by mainstream shows and movies way too much, they need a dose of reality. Especially those that want to do that job one day.
@@-yio-7941 lmao before it was kids are getting desensitized to violence by video games now it’s they being softened you spout the same rhetoric as the “main stream” the only thing ur going to get by showing the animals hunt are weirdos who want to see dying animals
@@-yio-7941 the problem is TH-cam would probably report the video I’ve seen people just feeding their snakes dead mice get demonetized and reported. But people actually torturing animals like pet amphibians and fish not. TH-cam sucks in that regard
I am also a fellow Texan been watching you for two years thank you for putting the word out to support the local rehabbers I do volunteer work for equine and other farm animals at my local Animal Clinic if it wasn't for us volunteers and people who donate I don't know what would happen to most of these animals thank you Ben
Big Ounce is the happiest I've ever seen him. He just loves you, Ben. He wasn't as happy in Ounch Topia. He's happier but makes your life a little harder. It would be hard for me to say no to that little man, lol.
Mans has 2 wives and a human guardian taking taking him on adventures, giving him scratches and unlimited food, big ounce is literally living the dream life. If I don't reincarnate as big ounce my next life I don't want to reincarnate at all
Ben, I know you don’t get as many views on the rehab based videos, but I’m actually considering a degree in animal care/anthrozoology rn so these videos are really helpful! All the love from houston 🗿
Rare to see, so a young person, applying such knowledge and wisdom to protect his huge heart. The practice of acceptance and appropriate expectation, keeps you mentally well. You'll do the greatest good, for the longest time. Love what you do!
TY for keeping it as real as you can. My daughter keeps saying she wants to be a vet and I keep telling her that she's going to have to deal with A LOT of death. She's still young so not sure if that has sunken in yet for her. Anyway. That lil owl was so cute. Poor thing. I hope it pulls through. And Big Ounce always makes me happy with his yahoos.
Yeah, i love animals and when i was little i wanted to be a vet too but because i thought it was just being with animals and taking care of them but then growing up i understood how sad being a vet would be because i just cant stand seeing animals in pain... a good option i guess could be a dog groomer if she loves animals
I also wanted to be a vet when I was young because of how connected I feel to animals. When I got older I realized that I love animals too much to be a vet. I ultimately know that dealing with that much death would crush my mental fortitude. I have incredible respect to Vets that can handle the work, and it's painful to know how much they have to harden their hearts some times.
this was a good episode. A lot of episodes it is hard to see the ben behind the mask of an entertainer but in this one we saw the responsible, truly caring, and wildly willing to work ben that is actually running the place when he's not being a 1337 pog fellow
I absolutely love the meme references and comedy that uncle ben uses in all of his videos and it always brightens up my day, but seeing ben being more serious when talking about rehabbing and taking care of these animals was something i didn't know that i needed. Just hearing why he wants to rehab and he thoughts on it was so nice, Uncle Ben cares about these animals and the environment so much and we need more people like him.
Sometimes I forget just how serious and intense this job is and it’s not all just yahoos and Patrick Bateman, this video really puts into perspective just how difficult wildlife rehab is, thank you for everything you’ve done. And anyone else working in the veterinary and rescue fields.
I really appreciate how responsible you were in this video to tell the realities of running a wildlife rehab. Your work, and that of all other rehabers is an incredible blessing for all these animals.

Uncle Ben, you sure have your hands full but always remember that if your animals can't say thank you, your viewers appreciate all you do for them! THANK YOU UNCLE BEN! SO VERY MUCH! Driving that owl that distance was truly an act of ultimate kindness. ❤🤗
Very awesome to see you taking some of the pressure off of these older and more established rescues by taking some animals in need off of their hands. This channel is reaching new heights of cool and satisfying to watch. Keep up the great work Uncle Ben!
I truly hope more people get inspired to become rehabbers while understanding the more real and sadder parts that come along with the profession. While getting the financial and equipment support they deserve. I say this as a shelter worker, we don't just get dogs and cats. We get exotics like hawks, aquatics, opossums, pigs, etc, as well. The sheer overwhelming number of animals, lack of space, rampant disease outbreaks, and lack of vets/rehabbers puts us all in constant desperate and stressful conditions. Thank you, Uncle ben, for doing what you do! Hopefully, more will follow in your footsteps.
big ounce was there, at Good Guys, when it all went down. he moved quickly before the perps could even react...the number of lives, and hifi stereo equipment saved that day..legendary
I remember when Big Ounce saved me from that building collapse in '94. Big Ouncerton is a huge hero. Love, love, and more love to Biggerton Ouncerton. 😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
that sweet baby owl and her excellent Low Battery Furby impression 😭❤️🙏 And Big Ounce sure seemed to like the idea of having 50 alligators! No doubt to eat 😂
This was a very wholesome video bro, much love to you and all who work so hard in animal rehabilitation day and night to help these animals. We need more people like you guys on this planet.
I believe those pink eggs you saw early in the video all around the pond are actually giant apple snail (Pomacea maculata) eggs. They are an invasive species from South America and are super hard to control. They are popular in the aquarium trade and were introduced through improper aquarium dumping. We have been seeing them in Louisiana for quite a while now and it looks like they are here to stay. As far as i know, the only thing that eats them are limpkins which are also a non native species that we are starting to see on the west side of the state in the sabine wma and lacassine wma. Thanks again for all the educational videos Ben!
@@postmortemargHe just said, “as far as I know”. It’s not like you’re looking for the name of a song & u don’t have an extra phone to Siri it, so you’re asking the comments. U have the info. Just research it
Ben, you're a true blessing from the Lord! This was an awesome vid! I'm a retired vet. tech. (20yrs). Also had the blessings of working with wildlife rehab. in Az. Many do think, it's about playing with animals all day. NO. The stuff I've seen, the countless paws & tears I've shed. From old, old beloved pets to young being euthanized. And the HAPPY endings too. It like nursing is a calling! From an ole granny, you are a breath of fresh air, you keep me in stiches! Thank you & may God Almighty continue to bless your life!
„…I’m just gonna become a villain and start hoarding lemurs“ made me laugh more than it should have😂 But on a more serious note props to uncle Ben for always keeping it real when it comes to the reality of wildlife rehab
I honestly watch this channel for mainly to watch the rescue ranch grow and thrive, and I also love the educational aspects of the channel. The humor and lore is simply a great side addition to the channel for me.
Thank you for doing what many of us wish we could do for our earth family, in regards to rehabilitation and the emotional toll of seeing pain and suffering firsthand 💗😭 much love and respect
Being a shelter volunteer myself, I want to thank you for what you and vet techs do overall. I've seen some miraculous recoveries thanks to your hard, often heartbreaking work, especially when it comes to cats & dogs that were hit by vehicles, or were abused prior to arrival. I hope that animal welfare is taken much more seriously as the years go by, so that the bad cases become less and less for us *all.*
Big Ounce is your spirit animal at this point, he loves to be with you, and with how long he's been with you he probably has started learning what some of your words mean.
I love this channel. I wish you had the ability to upload more often, but I understand the fact you are running an entire wildlife center and working to get a ton of rehab tickets. Keep doing the good work man
Usually just a lurker but what you said made me want to comment. Thank you for showing so much of the harder, less popular, side of what you do. I fully understand not wanting to show every little detail and also trying to avoid running into issues either legally or with youtube but as much as you feel you can is really appreciated.
I am a recent subscriber but your channel is one of my favorites. The diversity of the animals you care for as well as your enthusiasm and joy while taking care of them is so heart warming to see and makes my day everytime you post. As a marine life advocate I greatly appritiate and am very entertained by your documentation of the good, the bad, and the messy parts. Please never stop teaching us about the effort that goes into these types of facilities including the breaks, bleeds, and injuries these animals come in with due to human impact. It's super important people know we effect our enviroment and do our best to minamize harm!
It's true that Big Ounce and the Capys had me clicking Uncle Ben's videos in the first place, but now I'm here for him just as much as I am them. Thank you for all the work you do, for the animals who need it, and us viewers who feel joy just from watching.
in a similar vein to Vets, I would assume Wildlife Rehabbing is an incredibly stressful job, and takes a heavy toll on the worker's mental health. Not everyone can handle the realities of adorable creatures facing euthanisation everyday, and I have a huge respect for those who can handle it. So Mr. Rescue Ranch, I hope you're doing okay. You put on a smile for us, and it seems so natural an environment for you, but you have to take care of yourself too, okay? Don't go pushing yourself further than you can handle. loves yah
im glad Uncle Ben told the truth about animal rehabilitation centers i remember when i wanted to work in one when I was younger and my mom (who did worked in one) told me that if you truly love animals, you had to be prepare to euthanize about half you see many people are under the impression that it’s simply a daycare but its really serious and its takes a strong will and devotion to work in those facilities
Can't get enough of this channel, the personalities of all the animals is magnificent and Uncle Ben, well he just compliments them all absolutely perfectly
It’s Crazy how far the ranch has gotten, I still remember when the weird sitting area with the monkey painting existed! So proud of big ounce for making so much progress
Although I really don't want Ben to lose the permits he's been working extremely hard for, a part of me also wants to see his villain arc where he basically just owns a zoo with animals you don't need permits for.
I don't usually comment at all on any video really, but I wanted to say that this format or this video in general was perfect, and I think it's a great display of the content that you create. It was a perfect mix of memes, humour, Big Ounce, but also serious stuff, and interesting content on how wildlife rehabbing actually works. Please keep making more content, myself and so many others live for it 😄.
As someone who has been watching this channel almost from the beginning I completely agree. This video is a perfect mix of entertainment and education :)
I actually enjoy uncle ben showing actual rehab instead of just kevin, big ounce, and the capys, i find it way more entertaining seeing how they actually go about rehab
The realistic views of your work and those who you interface with is such a valuable opportunity for understanding how far you go to create what you create. Great stuff, as always. Cheers Uncle Ben! What a guy.

My respect was already high but knowing just how many animals are taken in and helped heals my faith in people. Plus hearing all the work you do and help you've done nearly brought a tear to my eye, you people deserve all the love and support you can get. Thank you Uncle Ben
(Also Big ounce falling off the couch was very funny, what a perfect little creature)

Ah yes, this video highlights so well how utterly stupid and harmful some of our laws are. Everyone gets told its illegal and bad to help wild animals. Yet when you do, and it requires actual funding to help them, government goes NOPE to money, so the injured ones get their version of the gas chamber. Instead of allowing them to heal and be taken in by people that could very well care for them... We rather boost populations of "exotic" animals imported from other countries than I own wildlife as we ruin ecosystems. Meanwhile practically every animal that goes into human care gets a much longer lifespan, flourishes in population, and overall just needs extra education to understand like any pet. Such a great liberal made law from 1914 that we must follow...
Mad respect for showing the truth behind what really goes on rehabbing animals even at the sake of less views.. As someone who has lived on a farm and tried rescuing every sick/injured creature I've come across... there's been many animals I've had to bury after 100s even thousands of $s and weeks of trying to save them to no avail.😔
I remember every single one I've lost.. but the ones who make it are the ones I cherish.
You're truly doing the lords work Uncle Rescuer Ben.
Thank you ❤
Also any tips for rescuing tadpoles froma Kiddie pool left sitting out too long? 😅
algee
@@lala_lakeypoo or just put them ina pond any one
@@lala_lakeypoo When I had tadpoles I just had them in a 10 gallon tank with algae. They mostly eat algae and you can also feed them some flaky fish food. Just get a net and put them in a tank with some of the water from the pool, they should be fine as long as the water stays nice and green with algae. You can also get some water plants like duckweed and watercress like I did to provide them shelter and a place to climb onto once they start growing their legs. I never read anything on tadpoles so you should do your own research to make sure this is all fine but it worked out for my little pacific tree frogs from a couple years ago. :)
Thank you as welll
Let’s just appreciate Kevin, the unsung hero. Is he a doofus? Yeah maybe. Does he literally bite the hand that feeds him? Yes. Do his attacks upset Uncle Ben? Yeah sometimes. However does he entertain us? Yes! Is he great at protecting the farm? Yes! Do we love him even with his flaws? Absolutely!
Keep being you Kevin, in any other situation you wouldn’t be allowed to due to well… you know.
Luckily Uncle Ben has the strength, patience, and love to allow Kevin to be himself.
Salute to you good sir 🫡
Let's also never forget when he absolutely alphad that coyote into submission 🙏
@@vocasoti poor coyote had one interaction with Kevin and that allowed people to handle him without any issues. Bless Kevin’s sweet little heart.
Kevin fights the good fight even if he doesn’t realize it in the slightest. We love kevins determination to dominate all beings in the universe good and especially bad. Even if he went overboard that one time.
For those of us who've been on here since the begining, Kevin was the fav. Atleast for me!
@@RealxKNS I believe they are referring to either:

Uncle Ben is such a gift to this world. Rehabbing all these animals, educating people about wildlife and animal rehab, promoting other rehab facilities, and even providing us with hilarious and entertaining videos along the way. ❤

0:22 The way Big Ounce yahoo'd himself off the couch, what a precious boy.
Biggerton ounce dies from fall damage, is resurrected after 5 years of his soul being stuck inside of the grimace shake
Uncle Ben being serious has my utmost respect.
Hey Uncle Ben, those clusters of pink eggs are from an Apple Snail. They have both gills and lungs, which is pretty cool. There are a few genera native to the southern U.S. and that along with the egg clusters narrows it down to Pomacea or Asolene.
They’re invasive in Texas
Was looking for this comment
I thought they were apple snails Lol, they are a highly destructive invasive species in Texas. Ben should definitely let his friend know!
Finally was so curious that I went to comments
I can't get enough of Big Ounces little yelp! When he yelped himself of the couch I had to keep going back like 5 times watching it. He is soooooo cute 🦫🥰
It's amazing that a young guy that quit his job one day to make videos about his ranch is doing so much good in the world. Your videos are always a great laugh but also a huge inspiration to everyone. Thank you for making these videos and publishing meaningful educational fun content on the cringe pile of crap that is TH-cam, Ben.
IDK TH-cam seems ok to me at least it works censorship sux but that's a society issue for which we may need tissues 😢🎉😊.
If you think TH-cam is a “cringe pile of crap” you must be using it differently than I do. There are absolutely wonderful channels out there if you look for them. I’ve almost completely stopped watching “regular” TV since I’ve found so many high quality educational and fun TH-cam channels.
@@jagpilotohio For that it's pretty good, but if you touch a topic with minimal controversy yt act like an a-hole, and start censoring and doing some unfair stuff to those channel owners.
ranch his job now
@@Sparktan24that’s why I essentially have 2 channels, one to stay angry and one subscribed exclusively to channels I love
The goats fighting Kevin is something I never thought I’d need. Kevin the immovable object found a worthy opponent, the unstoppable force of goat. Rest in peas Big Ounce, Your service is forever appreciated

Some people may look at this as a meme/animal’s rescue channel but you truly do great work and connect with a audience that others may not. Can’t wait to see the rehab ranch grow more then I already have. You truly doing great work. And more people should appreciate the sacrifices you take finaclily and mentally and physically to do this. Love you brotha. Thanks for the great work you do to provide for animals other people would of have given up on 🖤😊

Damn dude, you need a writing class....awesome sentiment thou, Is cumpletlee agrea with u!!
@@sante-1814 imagine looking over the message for punctuality. Your clearly a negative person. I feel bad for you. Think about other people and what they learned from there environment. Your not showing the message of this channel with that negative energy. Imagine watching addicts recover then dissing on a common trait of them. Weird dude.. don’t follow channels and be a complete troll cuz you don’t understand addiction and non educated people who suffered from not getting education cuz of there own addiction/poverty/environment.. your ruining this man’s message by trying to be “smart”
The pink blob things are most likely Island apple snail eggs, they’re actually invasive in Florida and West Texas so you probably did a good thing crushing them.
Please keep the wildlife in the videos, people need to see it
He should show the living prey hunting part of wildlife rehab. It's not inappropriate for young viewers, it's educational. Kids nowadays are getting softened by mainstream shows and movies way too much, they need a dose of reality. Especially those that want to do that job one day.
@@-yio-7941 lmao before it was kids are getting desensitized to violence by video games now it’s they being softened you spout the same rhetoric as the “main stream” the only thing ur going to get by showing the animals hunt are weirdos who want to see dying animals
@@-yio-7941 the issue there is with the youtube terms probably and the Karens reporting the videos
@@-yio-7941 the problem is TH-cam would probably report the video I’ve seen people just feeding their snakes dead mice get demonetized and reported. But people actually torturing animals like pet amphibians and fish not. TH-cam sucks in that regard
Love the inclusion of all the realism alongside the normal cadence.
I respect this man a lot, He's an example to follow
I am also a fellow Texan been watching you for two years thank you for putting the word out to support the local rehabbers I do volunteer work for equine and other farm animals at my local Animal Clinic if it wasn't for us volunteers and people who donate I don't know what would happen to most of these animals thank you Ben
Big Ounce is the happiest I've ever seen him. He just loves you, Ben. He wasn't as happy in Ounch Topia. He's happier but makes your life a little harder. It would be hard for me to say no to that little man, lol.
Mans has 2 wives and a human guardian taking taking him on adventures, giving him scratches and unlimited food, big ounce is literally living the dream life. If I don't reincarnate as big ounce my next life I don't want to reincarnate at all
Ben, I know you don’t get as many views on the rehab based videos, but I’m actually considering a degree in animal care/anthrozoology rn so these videos are really helpful! All the love from houston 🗿
Rare to see, so a young person, applying such knowledge and wisdom to protect his huge heart. The practice of acceptance and appropriate expectation, keeps you mentally well. You'll do the greatest good, for the longest time. Love what you do!
TY for keeping it as real as you can. My daughter keeps saying she wants to be a vet and I keep telling her that she's going to have to deal with A LOT of death. She's still young so not sure if that has sunken in yet for her.
Anyway. That lil owl was so cute. Poor thing. I hope it pulls through. And Big Ounce always makes me happy with his yahoos.
Yeah, i love animals and when i was little i wanted to be a vet too but because i thought it was just being with animals and taking care of them but then growing up i understood how sad being a vet would be because i just cant stand seeing animals in pain... a good option i guess could be a dog groomer if she loves animals
I also wanted to be a vet when I was young because of how connected I feel to animals. When I got older I realized that I love animals too much to be a vet. I ultimately know that dealing with that much death would crush my mental fortitude. I have incredible respect to Vets that can handle the work, and it's painful to know how much they have to harden their hearts some times.
this was a good episode. A lot of episodes it is hard to see the ben behind the mask of an entertainer but in this one we saw the responsible, truly caring, and wildly willing to work ben that is actually running the place when he's not being a 1337 pog fellow
love these much more
I absolutely love the meme references and comedy that uncle ben uses in all of his videos and it always brightens up my day, but seeing ben being more serious when talking about rehabbing and taking care of these animals was something i didn't know that i needed. Just hearing why he wants to rehab and he thoughts on it was so nice, Uncle Ben cares about these animals and the environment so much and we need more people like him.

Sometimes I forget just how serious and intense this job is and it’s not all just yahoos and Patrick Bateman, this video really puts into perspective just how difficult wildlife rehab is, thank you for everything you’ve done. And anyone else working in the veterinary and rescue fields.
I really appreciate how responsible you were in this video to tell the realities of running a wildlife rehab. Your work, and that of all other rehabers is an incredible blessing for all these animals.

Uncle Ben, you sure have your hands full but always remember that if your animals can't say thank you, your viewers appreciate all you do for them! THANK YOU UNCLE BEN! SO VERY MUCH! Driving that owl that distance was truly an act of ultimate kindness. ❤🤗
Well said❤
Very awesome to see you taking some of the pressure off of these older and more established rescues by taking some animals in need off of their hands. This channel is reaching new heights of cool and satisfying to watch. Keep up the great work Uncle Ben!
I truly hope more people get inspired to become rehabbers while understanding the more real and sadder parts that come along with the profession. While getting the financial and equipment support they deserve.
I say this as a shelter worker, we don't just get dogs and cats. We get exotics like hawks, aquatics, opossums, pigs, etc, as well. The sheer overwhelming number of animals, lack of space, rampant disease outbreaks, and lack of vets/rehabbers puts us all in constant desperate and stressful conditions.
Thank you, Uncle ben, for doing what you do! Hopefully, more will follow in your footsteps.
Big Ounce's excitement was adorable. No idea what he was in such a great mood for, but all the wahoos were depression curing.
3:51 those are apple snail eggs! they live in the lake and come out to lay their eggs. they are invasive so squash em!
That baby owl cured my depression! It literally is the cutest thing I have EVER seen!!!!!
Big ounce once helped me out of a hostage situation. I love and appreciate you Mr ounce ❤
As the man who held him hostage, I can confirm Big Ounce saved him.
kevin is very deadly
Yahoo to you, human!
big ounce was there, at Good Guys, when it all went down. he moved quickly before the perps could even react...the number of lives, and hifi stereo equipment saved that day..legendary
I’m glad the goats are finally standing up against that silly bully Kevin.
I remember when Big Ounce saved me from that building collapse in '94. Big Ouncerton is a huge hero. Love, love, and more love to Biggerton Ouncerton. 😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
Idk why but seeing the goat and Kevin just go at it was ridiculously entertaining
that sweet baby owl and her excellent Low Battery Furby impression 😭❤️🙏 And Big Ounce sure seemed to like the idea of having 50 alligators! No doubt to eat 😂
Mad respect to you Uncle ben for showing us what the world needs to see abt wildlife rehab, love from Taiwan
5:42 This precious little baby boi is literally me right now, good morning Uncle Ben and the squad.
i like how every time kevins on screen he's either fighting or approaching the camera
This was a very wholesome video bro, much love to you and all who work so hard in animal rehabilitation day and night to help these animals. We need more people like you guys on this planet.
I believe those pink eggs you saw early in the video all around the pond are actually giant apple snail (Pomacea maculata) eggs. They are an invasive species from South America and are super hard to control. They are popular in the aquarium trade and were introduced through improper aquarium dumping. We have been seeing them in Louisiana for quite a while now and it looks like they are here to stay. As far as i know, the only thing that eats them are limpkins which are also a non native species that we are starting to see on the west side of the state in the sabine wma and lacassine wma. Thanks again for all the educational videos Ben!
What animals would like to eat those eggs?
@@postmortemarghe just said limpkins
@@usibistro native to North America?
@@postmortemargHe just said, “as far as I know”. It’s not like you’re looking for the name of a song & u don’t have an extra phone to Siri it, so you’re asking the comments. U have the info. Just research it
There is a kite from Florida that eats apple snails exclusively, but I'm not sure if it's ethical or even possible to have them in other locations.
10:22 I love that Ben's idea of being a villain is just to care for even more animals 😂

You either die fighting Kevin or live long enough to see yourself become the villain 😂

Ben, you're a true blessing from the Lord! This was an awesome vid! I'm a retired vet. tech. (20yrs). Also had the blessings of working with wildlife rehab. in Az. Many do think, it's about playing with animals all day. NO. The stuff I've seen, the countless paws & tears I've shed. From old, old beloved pets to young being euthanized. And the HAPPY endings too. It like nursing is a calling! From an ole granny, you are a breath of fresh air, you keep me in stiches! Thank you & may God Almighty continue to bless your life!
„…I’m just gonna become a villain and start hoarding lemurs“ made me laugh more than it should have😂
But on a more serious note props to uncle Ben for always keeping it real when it comes to the reality of wildlife rehab

You are a legend Uncle Ben for rehabbing those animals! You make some of the best content in the process. Thank you so much.
I honestly watch this channel for mainly to watch the rescue ranch grow and thrive, and I also love the educational aspects of the channel. The humor and lore is simply a great side addition to the channel for me.
Thank you for doing what many of us wish we could do for our earth family, in regards to rehabilitation and the emotional toll of seeing pain and suffering firsthand 💗😭 much love and respect
Uncle Ben is such a good soul, bless his heart
God Bless our Uncle Ben.❤
Daily reminder that Uncle Ben is an amazing person
I really feel this as a vet tech. Some days are real bad and we see some really bad stuff, but the lives that we are able to save makes it worth it.
Being a shelter volunteer myself, I want to thank you for what you and vet techs do overall. I've seen some miraculous recoveries thanks to your hard, often heartbreaking work, especially when it comes to cats & dogs that were hit by vehicles, or were abused prior to arrival. I hope that animal welfare is taken much more seriously as the years go by, so that the bad cases become less and less for us *all.*
Uncle Ben is awesome his compassion for the wildlife is unmatched by anyone I've ever seen
Thank you for letting us see incredible animal rehabilitation, you are truly one of the best channels on TH-cam.
Big Ounce is your spirit animal at this point, he loves to be with you, and with how long he's been with you he probably has started learning what some of your words mean.
I love this channel. I wish you had the ability to upload more often, but I understand the fact you are running an entire wildlife center and working to get a ton of rehab tickets.
Keep doing the good work man
Maybe he could recruit someone to just be a primary cameraman, lol.
I mean he uploads like every 2 days...
I wish he recorded the building process
Usually just a lurker but what you said made me want to comment.
Thank you for showing so much of the harder, less popular, side of what you do. I fully understand not wanting to show every little detail and also trying to avoid running into issues either legally or with youtube but as much as you feel you can is really appreciated.
Big Ounce is a gift from heaven. He never fails to make me smile.
I am a recent subscriber but your channel is one of my favorites. The diversity of the animals you care for as well as your enthusiasm and joy while taking care of them is so heart warming to see and makes my day everytime you post. As a marine life advocate I greatly appritiate and am very entertained by your documentation of the good, the bad, and the messy parts. Please never stop teaching us about the effort that goes into these types of facilities including the breaks, bleeds, and injuries these animals come in with due to human impact. It's super important people know we effect our enviroment and do our best to minamize harm!
It's true that Big Ounce and the Capys had me clicking Uncle Ben's videos in the first place, but now I'm here for him just as much as I am them. Thank you for all the work you do, for the animals who need it, and us viewers who feel joy just from watching.
in a similar vein to Vets, I would assume Wildlife Rehabbing is an incredibly stressful job, and takes a heavy toll on the worker's mental health. Not everyone can handle the realities of adorable creatures facing euthanisation everyday, and I have a huge respect for those who can handle it. So Mr. Rescue Ranch, I hope you're doing okay. You put on a smile for us, and it seems so natural an environment for you, but you have to take care of yourself too, okay? Don't go pushing yourself further than you can handle. loves yah
Never forget when Big Ounce saved my whole family from a burning building. So inspirational.
You are a special kind of man, Ben. God bless you.
when uncle ben said 50 crocodiles big ounce thought about how much food that would be and got so excited he yahooed
I’m so happy that someone is out there helping these animals ❤
im glad Uncle Ben told the truth about animal rehabilitation centers
i remember when i wanted to work in one when I was younger and my mom (who did worked in one) told me that if you truly love animals, you had to be prepare to euthanize about half you see
many people are under the impression that it’s simply a daycare but its really serious and its takes a strong will and devotion to work in those facilities
Can't get enough of this channel, the personalities of all the animals is magnificent and Uncle Ben, well he just compliments them all absolutely perfectly
Ben you are an absolute gem of a human being. So much love to you for all you do and to #AllThingsWild -good job!!
It’s Crazy how far the ranch has gotten, I still remember when the weird sitting area with the monkey painting existed! So proud of big ounce for making so much progress
Those pink things are a type of snail egg and they're VERY invasive. You should crush them when ever you see them.
Although I really don't want Ben to lose the permits he's been working extremely hard for, a part of me also wants to see his villain arc where he basically just owns a zoo with animals you don't need permits for.
I can't believe how much I miss Big Ounce! 😢😢😢
I don't usually comment at all on any video really, but I wanted to say that this format or this video in general was perfect, and I think it's a great display of the content that you create. It was a perfect mix of memes, humour, Big Ounce, but also serious stuff, and interesting content on how wildlife rehabbing actually works. Please keep making more content, myself and so many others live for it 😄.
As someone who has been watching this channel almost from the beginning I completely agree. This video is a perfect mix of entertainment and education :)
I actually enjoy uncle ben showing actual rehab instead of just kevin, big ounce, and the capys, i find it way more entertaining seeing how they actually go about rehab
Thank you Uncle Ben you saved me from anxiety and bullying and/or internet dysphoria
10:29 I love how Big Ounce rejoices after you did suggest to get 50 crocodiles :D
Big Ounce : What?!!!!!!!
10:30. Big Ounce approves of the 50 crocodiles 🐊😩👌🏽💕
The realistic views of your work and those who you interface with is such a valuable opportunity for understanding how far you go to create what you create. Great stuff, as always. Cheers Uncle Ben! What a guy.
Big Ounce has the best job in the world: keeping Uncle Ben happy! Great video. 🧡
