    The mayfly breeding cycle is such a good example of the biodiversity in this place. Not only are the insects coming together to breed, but once they die, it is a yearly feast for the fish, birds, reptiles, amphibians, small mammals, and any other creatures that are insectivorous! I think you can compare it to the life cycle of the salmon… here in America. The adults return to the rivers to breed and die… just like the mayfly. Then the salmon end up feeding entire ecosystems, from the animals to the plants and the fungi and mycorrhizae network. The high amount of nutrients from all of those dead fish (or mayflies) is spread around the environment too, and fertilizes all the trees and plants!

      @BeBraveToAct  หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      It's true! Thanks for such detailed description of a salmon life cycle. Never thought about that salmon in the end could feed plants and fungi. It's always fascinates me how everything is balanced in the eco system. And how one species depended on another, in many possible and sometimes unimaginable ways .

    Beautiful video!!! I live in the US and had the great pleasure of visiting the Hortobagy National Park back in 2016! I was extremely impressed. Although I didn't see the Przewalski's Horses (I wish I had been able to see them), I did see some amazing cattle breeds. But my main reason for visiting was for birding. Hortobagy was one of my fondest memories in all of my years of birding trips. I would also like to add that the people of Hungary were very warm and welcoming. If I ever get a chance, I will certainly visit again!!!

    Hate to tell you this, but DNA evidence shows that the Takhi (Przewalski horse) are likely descended from a line of domesticated horses, those of the Botai Culture of Central Asia, that no longer exist that subsequently went feral. They are what mustangs and brumbies will be if allowed to stay wild for another 4,000 years. While it is possible that the Botai took horses from the same gene pool as the ancestors of today's Takhi, making them cousins, without definitive evidence, we can't call them the last true wild horse if your definition of a true wild horse excludes those descended from feral animals.

    • @BeBraveToAct
      @BeBraveToAct  หลายเดือนก่อน +21

      That’s Interesting, experts in the field told me that they are wild and never been domesticated. So that’s where i got information. But wikipedia also mention your point about Botai horses.

    • @DragonFae16
      @DragonFae16 หลายเดือนก่อน +26

      @@BeBraveToAct To me, regardless of whether they come from previously domesticated stock that went feral or not, they are wild horses. After all, they've been wild for the last 5,000 years at least.

      I've looked into the study, and it cannot prove that Przewalski horse were descended from Botai horses, as it's also possible they were both descended from the same ancient wild ancestor population, so yeah i don't think you can definitively say they aren't wild either based on that.

      I can agree to bringing back recently extinct species, provided there is space for them which allows a good quality of life. I can find no reason to bring back the mammoth which no longer belongs in any modern ecosystem and could cause great damage to native modern species. It would very cool, but nut wise.

    The last aurochs were not shot down! The last herd of aurochs in Jaktorów Forrest (the king's property) had a special king's official who cared for them. For instance, he gave them food in snowy winters, counted the population of aurochs and a special royal decree ordered other officials to cooperate with him. Bad luck - the last years of the XVI and the beginning of the XVII were the most frosty and snowy times in the Nort of Europe in known history. Baltic sea was regularly frozen so people on horses and merchant carts wandered through it! And in these times came to this part of Europe the unknown there a deadly for aurochs cattle disease epidemic. At the very beginning of the XVII century, almost all the population of aurochs was dead. Only one female remained. This female aurochs lived for the next twenty years alone but was still fully cared for by the king's official. She died in 1627 year and her horn was given to the king after her natural death and the king ordered it to be set in silver as a souvenir of this wonderful animal!. By the way: In the time of war between Sweden and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in the middle of the XVII century was stolen by the Swedish and now is in Sweden.

    They should really be called Aurochs-looking or Auroch-like cattle. They're not real Aurochs. They're not a genetic match (genotype) for the Aurochs they just look similar (phenotype). So sadly the Aurochs is still extinct. For more about the breeding of Aurochs-like cattle look up the the "Taurus Programme ".

      Okay but jokes aside, it's the specific breeds of cattle, that are bred by those fascist fucks back in the 1930's. The breed couldn't really survive in the wild in it's own, but it gave a strong basis for future project that reached to re-surrect aurochs in the wild.
      There may never be aurochs again, but cattle that acts and looks the same, is possible.

    • @BeBraveToAct
      @BeBraveToAct  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      From what I've seen it's not at all. For example it's only 1 herd of horses which you could see from safari , about 25 of them. The rest (and in total they have 300) are kept in biosphere reserve (which is huge area) , and no one could visit it. Those horses have no contact with any humans at all. Also the tours they are doing are highly educative, it's not like they are trying to make money or build a business model and make it mass tourism. From my impression it is still more about education. From my experience in many other places I usually can notice that straight away. And i really oppose mass tourism. But it's a good point which you brought up

They kept their behaviours and were alwyas keen on attacking other annimals and humans of course one day they manged to kill the farmer and the most aggersive ones were culled. Some specimens may still exist in the UK.
