The Grasshopper Mouse Is a Killer Howling Rodent | Nat Geo Wild
• The Grasshopper Mouse ...
Nat Geo Wild
/ natgeowild
The grasshopper mouse has amazing agility and is immune to a scorpion's venom. What are your thoughts on this impressive creature?
Nat Geo WILD I loved living and exploring in the Sonoran Desert around Tucson, AZ, the wildlife is so unique and diverse. These mice are another example of the rich biodiversity in the Sonoran Desert.
Nat Geo WILD i think its adorable but deadly
What a little badass!!
Everyday I watch this program! Very interesting!!!
I'm glad it isn't the size of a coyote.
Scorpion: Stings mouse
Grasshopper mouse: Thanks for the Buff
+2 Defense
Gore Magala war flashbacks
Scorpion: Am I a joke to you?
Too op please nerf
@@geekhammergamer1438 Nah Gods gonna come out with a buff patch for you soon don't worry.
She is a wolf. With mouse clothin.
Mouse: AHHHHHHHHH
🤣 This should've been TOP COMMENT.
The mouse’s ghostly howl stakes claim toAAAaaaAAAhhhhh
HAHAHAHAHA!! Look everyone, it's a MEME!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
I can only hear the “let me see your war face” scream XD
ahhhh. Ahhhhh. AHHHHHHH AHHHHHHH ah.
This is 100% the cutest little psychopathic fluff ball I’ve ever seen
Right! it like a cuter smaller version of the honey badger!
Literally if deadly why cute? xD
@@darschpugs4690 honeybadger don't care!
Lol
"Psychopathic"?? Dont slander my boi smh
Like imagine you’ve evolved over millions of years with venom, giant claws, or piercing fangs, only to hear that tiny howl in the night knowing that somewhere out there is your boogeyman.
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes.
boogey-mouse
Yeh a fluff ball being your biggest opp
That howl is honestly adorable
This must be the coolest mouse species ever.
*AHHH!*
Like an adorable screaming kettle! 🥰🥰🥰
I thought it sounded like a water boiler lol!
*AAAAHHHH!**
1:55 whoever got that shot of the mouse howling with the moon in the background deserves a raise! 👏🏾 👏🏾
dont want to be that guy but the moon is edited in obviously
@@viraloracle5151 😱 say it ain’t sooooo 😫
😂😂
@@viraloracle5151 Hmmm, maybe afterwards but that shot before is 50/50 as it's behind actual terrain / foliage so I'm kinda on the fence there.
It's all made inside glass enclosures
"These mices are natural killer"
**shows up smoll cute fluff ball on screen*
*mice
Smol cute fluffball....that will hunt down and eat scorpions, tarantulas and giant centipedes its own size or larger.
The cutest most fluffy killer ever 😍
@@bkjeong4302 cute and kills centipede? Boy I love them already
Wait until you see the rabbits that live in some caves in england!
me: *watching the video*
*the mouse howls*
my aunt, in the other room: "THE KETTLE'S WHISTLING, TURN IT OFF"
Little did they suspect, an army of mice was just outside, drawn by the calls of the video. Now her and her aunt have to escape without being converted into werewolf mice themselves.
@@timyumichuck9262 love it
Cute but that meme of them going “AHHHH” is stuck in my head and I can’t stop giggling
Yasmin Smith that’s an elephant shrew.
Haley Giunta It’s super cute
Same
Saaame XD
"she's a wolf in mouse's clothing..."
The name werewolf mous fits way better than grasshoper. It's a cannibal with peak physical powers like immunity to scorpion venom leading to pain killer and finally it even HOWLS.
It's a killer but it's fricking adorable!
give the natural painkiller is addicts
@@andrewtorres301 yeah that's cool af
Yeah I imagined them to bounce everywhere, high, & fast. Almost looking like flying sometimes. Over here, there, here, & there just to add to the cute factor. Like dis, & like dis, & like dis. Boink, boink, boink.
I don't know that cannibaln is an appropriate term for these guys. the video said they prey on different species of mice not other grasshopper mice.
@@LITTLEMUSTANGFILLY So us eating a neanderthal wouldnt be cannibalism?
Pocket mouse: falls victim to centipede like a noob
Grasshopper mouse: laughs in badass.
*Howls, you mean.
Grasshopper mouse: “that mouse was a b*tch”
The most weird fact of this is that the grasshopper mouse is more related to hamsters than to real rats and mice or gerbils
Really?! Neat! What fascinating lil dudes.
Hamsters can be freaking psychotic so that doesn’t surprise me.
"It sounds like a teapot" - my boyfriend.
@@frenne_dilley yuppp
@@frenne_dilley what does your username even mean?? Lol
"Bro, I have a Doberman and a Pitbull for house protection"
" I Have 2,000 of Grasshopper Mice protecting mine. You should hear them howling when the moon is full, bro."
"What!?"
doesnt the protecting mine explode mouse intestines over everything?
That dog is going to get chewed out alive by the mice. Down to bare bones
A flood of mice should put a stop to a break-in.
Owl thinking to himself: "A meal that lets me know where it is?...No....That's to good to be true."
*Flies off*
grasshopper mouse: "runs up the legs and crawls into the owls ears"
I love how nature spirals in familiar patterns from the micro to the macro, and this animal has filled the niche of a wolf in it's miniature world. Taking on a Scolopendra sp. (the centipede) is a truly impressive feat, given their relative sizes. I think it permanently should be given the common name of "werewolf mouse" instead of grasshopper mouse. It's earned that badass name!
The microcosm is the macrocosm
they can jump 8x their height, that's why they are called grasshopper mouse...
@@niks660097 I know, but I still think "Werewolf Mouse" can still encompass those super-mousey jumping abilities!
@@niks660097i think they're actually called grasshopper mouse cuz the grasshoppers are some of their main prey
@@fizzy69o.0 i don't think there is grass in dessert, let alone grasshoppers..
That's not a mouse, that's a beast
That's neither a mouse nor a beast. That's a war face.
This is a cute demon
@What' Ev *mice
Imagine hearing that howling in the night while being alone in a desert or wasteland, horror stuff.
and then being scared to death and have continuous nightmares for days.. you tell all your friends about that frightening experience while in reality it was only a cute little mouse 🐭
honestly with a high pitch howl like that, I would think it was mouse yawning loudly, and seems to be not far from the truth.
@@0192123 I meant the part the critter emits that loud noise of course, I've never heard a rodent scream like that before 😁
I've had my fair share of odd/creepy night experiences at hospitals and outdoors in the past. It always catches you by surprise at first like "wtf's that??😨" And a few seconds later you realize "ohh it's that!😝"
Imagine being one of the first people to head west in the US? Screaming mice, long poison spiders with tails, 120lb cats, spiders the size of your hand migrating, deadly snakes that rattle, that's just in the south west, the north west is bigger deadly animals
@@mikebrennan7045 would be material for an epic/comedic story told from the (exaggerated) perspective of them fearless settlers 😀
This is my new favorite animal. Look how fierce he is. Cutest little killer. Yesh he is. You howl and let them all know who's boss.
Oh your comment is so cute.
Imagine camping out in the desert and hear whistling out of nowhere. That moonshot with the howling mouse was beautiful, kudos to the cameraman
"she's a wolf in mouse clothing" 😂 there's a video named like that
Aaahhhhhhhh
AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh
Isn't that David Attenborough who coined that phrase?
Correct, that was Attenborough.
This is my hamster's spirit animal.
Im the 69th like
LOL!!!!!!
The Mouse with the “Predator roar” after a kill. Absolutely badass 👏👏👏👏👏
That is the coolest Mouse I have ever seen.
Cute vicious little thing! Pretty cool for a rodent 🤗 Didn't know they have some that howls too. Thanks for sharing National Geographic.
Right!?🐀💘
AAAHHH!
@Firefury me too! 😊
"she's a wolf in mouse clothing..." *A H H H*
I finally know the actual noise that mouse makes.
1:49 The meme were the mouse goes ahhhhh
Shut up I hate that meme and all memes.
Cute and vicious.
Hey Butters, fancy seeing you here!
Cats are also cute and vicious too
Butters The Bean, 😀Hi Butters!
My guinea pigs are sleeping beside each other near the barrier I used to separate them. Bc they were fighting.... Little furballs can't figure out if they hate each other or not... I'm gonna keep their "door" open to see...
That is one badass mouse!
So cool to see a fellow mammal get down like this!
It eats everything, immune to posions and toxins and howls at the moon... Call it a Grasshopper mouse🤔
Darn naturalists, giving things lousy names before further research...
If they make a Pokemon out of it, the Werewolf Mouse should *definitely* be a Dark type.
Wish granted. We now have Morpeko. Cute, adorable, and ferocious!
and it was a legendary pokemon
Dark/Steel type, so it's immune to Poison.
@@ADHadh Nah. Dark type with poison heal, or some ability that just buffs its defense on contact.
Dark Pokemon do have this ability called "Crunch" which is basically a dark type Bite but stronger.
Oh so this is where screaming meme came from
Not close.

He looks so happy :) what a good mouse
I frequently come back to hear this cute thing howl.
I watch a LOT of nature documentaries. Never in my life did I think I’d see a howling mouse. Lmfao I want one!
I would pay good money just so i could hear that! Mean and adorable together!
He might try to kill and eat you.
*_Deleted scenes from Tom and Jerry?_*
@Tommy Hopps Jerry killed him.
Nah how about deleted scenes from Redwall?
Its a girl..im kinding no one cares, but she also ate a mouse.
😂
Jerry's on sicko mode
We call that one, Muad'Dib.
1:16 Wha...WAS THAT A PUNCH SOUND?!
Lmao... Hadooooken
Can covert the venom of a scorpion into pain killers and can howl like a wolf that is awesome
1:25
Mouse: Oh, you think darkness is your ally. But you merely adopted the dark; I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already grown, by then it was nothing to me but BLINDING!
Venom...A Powerful agent to the uninitiated; but we are initiated aren't we, Scorpion.
@The Glokage batman the dark knight rise
Oh Brother, how corny!!!
Anytime I need to feel just a bit better, this mouse is what does it for me. It's adorable
Imagine realising your animagus form was a mouse and then finding out that it's one of these. Tiny, adorable and deadly.
mouse + cat + wolf = grasshopper mouse
al va I think we have the answer to a new riddle; what has the jaws of a tiger, the heart of a lion, the howl of a wolf, and the balls of a honey badger?
@@oceanberserker a grasshopper mouse 🐁😊
J Chea You are correct, sir or madam!
I have done the test shows that my patronus is a mouse, I thought it was too soft and cute for my personality, but now I know it's this guy.
0:17 and 1:43 are hands down the cutest thing I have ever seen
Sheesh, something I've never seen before. Always something new we've learned
THIS IS SPAAAARTAAAA - WARRIOR MOUSE
"This mouse is a natural killer"
Mouse: REEEEEEEEEEEEE
Omg. That howl is my whole life now.
That’s the cutest thing I’ve ever heard and seen.
Lil face🥰
That venom to painkiller conversion is awesome! Also, they are terrefying.
Narrator: "From the day they are born, these mice are natural killers."
🐭
Me: "Awwwww!" 😆
I love the little guy. Everyone should have one in their backyard to keep other critters at bay.
It's a lot safer having scorpions in your backyard than these, scorpions sting aren't that lethal 90% og the time and they prefer to run away from human.
This thing? You get near its den and they will bite your toes, there is a video about biologist who test their bite on TH-cam, a medium sized one ripped off the protective glove that they use to test the bite, without gloves it will penetrate your skin to the bone and it will hurt *a lot*.
Unlike rats and common mice...I can respect this lil badass
Converting scorpion venom into opioids ?! I wish humans had that ability.....scorpion stings to pre-pubertal children are almost always fatal (human adults survive)
Literally the cutest thing I’ve ever seen ever.
Much respect to this Lil mouse.
I almost fell outta my chair laughing so hard. I grew up in Arizona and never heard of this little sucker. I love it.
1:56 after the mouse wins a battle it lets out a powerful war cry.
Now THAT'S small but mighty!
Whoa! A super tough mouse! A super tough mouse that acts like a werewolf! And is immune to deadly poison converting it into painkillers! Amazing! Surprising! Fascinating! Incredible!
I will follow this mouse into battle any day.
LMAOOO that howl .
That little mouse is like Bubbles from Powerpuff Girls. Cute but vicious, even down to the cute but powerful screams
That's the cutest werewolf I've ever seen!
It's so satisfying watching her defeating giant centipede and getting revenge for all fallen rodent cousins.
One day my dog and that mouse will howl together. Glad there's an animal out there that eats centipedes
That Mouse is a Warrior!
you know, you might say, hey, that howl is adorable, but in their point of view, they are howling on how glorious their hunt was.
Wow, that mouse is like the long eared hedgehog in the fact that they're adorable, but totally lethal.
*so that’s where the meme comes from*
Reminds me of the video that the mouse just screams and not does the sound it makes
Star Beast That clip was actually from an old Natgeo series. The audio of the meme was edited one though.
Neal The Mouse wants to train himself to defeat his enemie......Mashayla the cat
That’s an elephant shrew.
@@haleyg8387
The video said what mouse it is. It's not a shrew
They look so adorable but also really good hunters.
This is quite possibly the greatest thing I have ever seen.
Someone please make a cut where when the mouse howls it's a lions or Tigers roar.
Although honestly, I'm not sure whether that would make it better then the squeak or not.
I am grasshopper mouse, hear me roar! AAAHHHHHH So cute but so ferocious 😍
Me: this was funny but-
Mouse: AGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
Anyone remember that amazing edited version of this of the “mouses ghostly howl”?
A devotional I read about the werewolf mouse brought me here
Cute howl
1:45 when you try to hit a high pitch at your school talent show
I love the howling of the grasshopper moses it's so cute aww
This has suddenly become my favorite animal
Now I understand why elephants are scared of mice. 🐁 🐘
I love this mouse, I learned about her on Nat Geo. I think the Grass Hopper Mouse is the coolest little creature 😁😘
Nat Geo: “The Grasshopper Mouse Is a Killer Howling Rodent”
Me: “I want it!”
@@user-hw3xg7mz7o you do?! So they can be bought?! And thank you for the offer! So nice of you, but I can't take it. 🤗
With every new detail I learned about this mouse I was progressively more and more impressed, physically going some variation of “ooh!”
When she howled I lost my goddang MIND
I think I want one of these. Adorable and fierce protector.
so this is what it ACTUALLY sounds like
good to finally know XD
These may be murderous creatures, but that scream is incredibly cute
Now that's what I call a badass mouse.🐀🐁🐭
Oh this is quite informative & interesting at the same time. I saw a different mini documentary video on these type of wild mice that tackle on poison & toxic-based preys. I do have to admit, they are cute & I didn’t expect that howling, I couldn’t stop hysterically laughing cause of another clip.
She's a wolf in mouse clothing. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
"Wow, you're a little badass!"
"No no, please. I'm a modest mouse."
1:45 that's it!! That's the meme!!
Wow!! Immune to scorpions?!? Its amazing how wildlife has evolved to suit its prey
Just wait till a grasshopper scorpion evolves and converts that pain killer into a sauce for mouse meat.
Evolved, huh? That WOULD be amazing.
Or they're immune or they'll be extinct in this region adaptation gift
This word is so iver used but this mouse is SAVAGE!!
That victory howl at the end was everything!
Favorite animal of all time. I saw them for the first time in a video called “When Animals Attack.” It was an old school National Geographic (I think it was them) VHS tape.
