The voice of the narrator is to me, one of the greatest voices on TH-cam( and maybe even Nebula). The way scientific topics are presented is also very good. This channel should be up there with legends such as Kurzgesagt. It needs more recognition. Also, the small mammals shown were so cute!
the best source is the "turst me" source, you just cant challenge that, movies are proof, every movie has a "trust me", and no character is yet to disagree/reject whats offered
This channel is so good. It has nature doc aesthetics to make it relaxing with nitty gritty science and high level scientific conclusions to make it super interesting
10:27 I just realized that I may have this "Hunter's response". As a kid I noticed that while playing outside in the snow and making snowballs bare handed my fingers would get very cold and hurt after a few minutes. But if I kept doing it for another 10 minutes or so, my hands would heat up again, allowing me to continue throwing snowballs.
@@smoothmarvingaming1309 I actually tested it this winter and it still works, you really feel the blood rushing in it pulsates and my hand gets all tingly and red.
The graphic on polar bear skin and fur @ 7:25. Should not the dark skin layer be to the left of the white wooly fur layer in the cross-section diagram?
I once went outside in a swimsuit at -20F with a windchill of -50F for 5 minutes and you could very immediately and intensely feel the blood getting constricted in my extremities.
What's so curious about the polar bears is the fact that all other bears tend to go to sleep when it gets cold.. but the polar bears live in much harsh environment and they don't seem to hibernate.
@@stevewhoknowswhomisreallyw4282 their fur is white, if its clear, then we would be able to see their black skin or flesh. you might be correct that its hollow(i dont know much) but it cant be clear lol
@@phonn6935 I don't specifically know about polar bear fur but I have heard elsewhere that it is clear (i.e. transparent). Things that are transparent appear white if they are divided up into large numbers of surfaces all at slightly different angles. Water is transparent, but if divided up into millions of droplets with surfaces at countless different angles, as in a cloud, photons trying to get through that cloud will be reflected at billions of angles off every part of a droplet's surface that presents a shallow angle to them. The photons are now bouncing around between the droplets at random angles. If there is an object such as a plane behind the cloud, rays of light that set off in a straight line from that plane towards your eyes will get diverted on all sorts of random paths hither and thither through the cloud before they get to your eyes. All you see are zillions of photons reaching your retinas from very random locations, some from the plane's wing, some from the cockpit, some from a patch of blue sky, and lots actually from the sun (even if the sun is way off to the side). The photons include photons of all colours, so when you mix all the colours together the total effect you see is whiteness. So a cloud of water droplets looks white, even though water en masse is clear. So I would not be surprised if each individual polar bear hair is clear and yet when seen in large masses appears white. Sorry, my comment got extravagantly long!
Torpor and Hibernation are quite different.. Bears go into torpor and animals in torpor wake quite easily, animals in hibernation like a hedgehog will not wake up and you could hurt them by picking it up or moving them while in hibernation. The bit of info at roughly 4:45 made it seem like it's an interchangeable word, and it's not, they're quite different states.
3:20 Actually they always do that, it's just hard to notice when it's not very cold. It's why we like being warm to sleep and why in moderate temperatures if we hold out our hand we can see it vibrate.
Another fascinating and high quality video! I really hope that perhaps one of the next videos will explore the possibility of cryopreservation for humans, similar to what can be found some frogs. But regardless of what the next video is about, I'm certain it will be fantastic.
Some yeara ago, Russian scientists in Siberia found a well preserved woolly mammoth frozen in the permafrost. They commented that it was so well preserved that its flesh was still edible. I thought about this. The comment begged the question 'what sort of food did the poor scientists have that they would consider eating the mammoth'.
I wonder if I might have the hunters response; I’m half Native American, Haida specifically from Ketchikan Alaska and have mostly been in the cold till later in life, same with much of my family so who knows? Would be cool to think that’s the reason some of the folks are more tolerant of the cold but never knew
probably don't realize when it happens, same with me. i'm inuk and lived in northern quebec my whole life i *don't* know if i have it, but the thought that i probably do makes me feel better, and i'm certainly not going to go test it out 💀
Can we have another video on the opposite scale perhaps in tropical or desert adaptations? It would be interesting to see how animals can stay cool as the world around them heats up.
I've heard about brown fat before, my understanding was that most mammals have at least some amount of it - though perhaps most don't have the quantity required for meaningful thermogenesis. I was wondering though: How efficient is brown fat when it comes to converting chemical energy into heat?
I don't subscribe to a lot of channels but you guys deserve it , i appreciate your well researched content and the dedication and time you put into it to make it digestible by the general audience
Surely the graphic at 7:20 should have the skin next to the blubber, instead of on top of the white wooly fur? Thanks so much for the videos, I love learning with you!
Giving the same feedback here, I'd really like Modulus as a video podcast. I really like to see the faces that are talking instead of just hearing the voice.
It isn't totally accurate that frostbite is a death sentence to all life. Needletrees are frostbitten every year. They have adapted with gaps between their cells for the ice to expand into. The ice though does lock down their cells so they can't grow during it or do much. It's kind of a plant form of hibernation. During the summer they can grow again. That's why they grow so fast and can exist so far north.
It is a death sentence to the cells, not the life. And im guessing trees have different cell structures to mammals and things with a circulatory system
I’d have to look for them but I think there was recent studies in humans that demonstrated white fat can actually act just like brown fat but only under chronic hypothermic conditions.
A very fine channel indeed. I subscribed immediately after seeing the octopus video. Nice to hear that you're cooperating with Brian. You guys picked an wonderful name for the podcast and created the perfect logo. I'm sorry to inform you though, that he beat you to the punch in hooking me up with Nebula.
if polar bears fur traps heat. it only makes sense they dont show up well on thermal imaging if you understood anything about thermal imaging and thermal masking properties of insulting fur
Its amazing @Casual Greg Channel, has less in depth knowledge and content as well as has very low quality video's. Yet he out does other channels that are about Nature and Wildlife in views and subscriptions. Who knows why? What's your opinions? I'll be back in a few days from now with my opinion?
Predator: The ultimate predator because he can see heat Polar bear: hehe Logical solution to a real life predator problem? Send polar bears 😎 you are now thinking about Sylvester Stallone leading a group of polar bears into battle. You're welcome.
This is one of those rare channels where I can click a random video and just trust that it's going to be good no matter what it's about.

the other bears can't get enough food during winter and must hibernate or possibly starve.
Polar bears don't hibernated at tall and it's true the fur is not white, it's hollow and clear.
