Imagine somebody giving birth then somebody shows up to narrate how you're doing it.
😂😂😂😂
I would be hella annoyed.
I imagine that would be the case if aliens were making such a documentary about humans lol
Imagine giving birth as a male
@@MultiBigbird01 i wouldn't mind meeting alien david attenborough XD
Instead of saying "we need more people like him" lets say "we need to start acting like him"
This is so important! I love that attitude! Let's be agents of change 💪🏻
Yeah Exactly
The change you want to see in others you must first be that change- Ghandi
We need more people like him
You cannot tell people what not to eat if you are not ready to feed them. He found that out.
Now that’s someone who has really made a difference. Much respect for him.
Oh my, you might want to correct that tense to ‘has made’ - it sounds like you’re saying he has died! Nearly had a heart attack!! 😅
@@326Alan thx 😅 now we wouldn’t want to jinx anything related to the good man...
@@ntk8787 long live Sir Attenborough 🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@326Alan well, both. Him and superhero turtle man 😌 may people take their bravery and curiosity as an example to aspire to.
Wasn't Attenborough killing birds for the museum? He even had his impact on extinction for example Kauai.
I’m proud of my Trinidadian brother for protecting such a fantastically beautiful animal. 👍
Kelvin Gopaul 💯
Thank you for the work you guys are doing to protect them.
Yessir 🇹🇹

Hello from Suriname🇸🇷
humanity needs more of these people
Prashant indeed
Prashant should 6
For shaming animals?
Hue Lu what drugs are you on?
Chara Murderer - I have never tried any drugs my entire life...
As a jamaican and animals lover, I am proud of these Trinidadians. Keep of the good work.
I would imagine Jamaicans have a lot of love for animals, lots of rasta vegans!
Need an episode like this on protecting David Attenborough
@SHOAIB ALAM you know what I mean
he got the poachers to be part of the conservation program
damn that's impressive as hell
Mr. Peters is a hero and a brilliant man!
Why not you join him
@@knife5190 Hello, I would absolutely love to join in this effort to protect Leatherback Turtles. I cannot because my life is not my own. I have a mother who is quite ill and needs me 24/7.
I am not sure if you meant your comment seriously , as an insult , if you had some other thoughts or were just trying to insult. I would love to hear any opinions you had. I think it important people talk.
But if it was just some attempt at an insult. It was a childish one.
@@kellyoconnor1035 i dont know english🤔
This guy deserves best award possible in the universe for his work in nature and wild animals
Next time when I'm thinking "I'm just one person, what can I realistically do to make a difference", I will think back to this man who is the perfect example of how one person can make a huge difference.
"Whoops!"
David Attenborough is a treasure.
What happened?
We need more people like him..
Hussain Bharmal WE NEED TO ACT LIKE HIM NOT NEED MORE PPL LIKE HIM
@@annabelle5929 agreed.
@@annabelle5929 lol yes
Great hearted man.
Agreed
These massive and majestic animals like the leatherback, elephants, giraffe, rhino and blue whale keep the magic of our planet alive.
and orca
Fantastic work. Amazing what one person can do if they have the will power. Is there somewhere we can donate?
Hippie Whovian we can find them in google😁
Going to donate for their great work
You can go and volunteer. There is lots of programs around the Carribean that you can take part in and help.
I am in Costa Rica at the moment doing just this. I decided to come after watching blue planet 2 🐢😊
Iliyana Raleva hey.. could you explain me about the pgms?
I went with IVHQ for 6 weeks. Check out their website they have a lot of programs around the world. Good luck
My account, would be great!!!😎
Well done Len! You were mentioned in today's Inaugural address by Madam President Paula-Mae Weekes. Len you were our guide several times when we came up on our pilgrimages to see the turtles each year. You were always our favourite guide and your passion and enthusiasm was infectious. You are an inspiration and a blessing for these magnificent creatures
This dude deserves the medal of honour. A knight in animal kingdom
For sure
Thank you Mr.Peters.
I am glad that this has gotten international recognition
We need more people like you. Please dont stop protecting these turtles
The world need more people like this man
God bless you
Amen!
This feels like I am watching a short film but it's actually a true documentary based on how we have to care and protect these animals because I am pretty sure they deserve the Earth more than humans
Hats off sir....plz continue your great work. This planet needs more warriors like u to save the world from extinction
Lol
“Hey old man I need some privacy...”

We also need to limit artificial lighting near these beaches because when those turtles are born they head out to sea using the moon as a compass.. However, because of human development, this has threatened these species because many of them think the street lighting is the moon, so the turtles confusingly follow the artificial street lights instead.
nelson 100 what about when the moon is inland?
That is not true it's the adults that come to the street lights. And yes I know this for a fact my condo is on Ormond beach and starting may first we can not have the porch lights on and they shade all streat lights
nelson 100 omg.good to know. thanks
This isn't completely accurate: they don't follow the moon, they follow the moonlight that's reflected off the water. Pool lights, streetlight reflected off roads, etc, produce the optical illusion of shining waves to the turtles poor eyesight. This is why the people in the video and the houses in the background are illuminated by red light; very little red light in moonlight, and even less is reflected off the water, so it doesn't produce the same optical illusion to the turtles eyes as blue light.
What is this fool talking about
This takes place in my country and not only do these guys help protect the turtles when they are laying their eggs but they also help the babies when they hatch since they are so vulnerable to predators as they try to reach the ocean. I’ve stayed near the beaches several times when I was younger to observe both the egg laying season and the babies hatching season and both events are marvelous to witness. They are amazing creatures and I’m so glad that guys like him are looking out for them ☺️
Salute to the guy & his team who are trying to conserve this giant natural treasure🐢🐢🐢.
Thanks to BBC.
That poor turtle 😂. She just tryin to lay her eggs man! Imagine giving birth while dozens of strangers stand feet away snapping pics and recording the whole thing lmfao
@@pstu67 lol I know, plus the added bonus of scaring away any potential predators, but still, I don’t even watch my dog take a shit out of respect.
@@pstu67 no she isn't, sea turtles have literally stopped laying because of flash, it makes them get confused
His voice gives me hope for Mother Earth. 🌏
Let's protect them so the next generation have the opportunity to witness this majestic creature
Good Job Mr.Len! The WORLD IS PROUD OF YOU!
The turtles look like they’re crying
It's how they excrete excess salt from their bodies, through tears
Was looking for this comment.
thats called anthropomorphism, comparing animal traits to humans
Maybe because having babies really hurts
I live on the beach where I see loggerheads laying their eggs. They struggle to reach a spot above the tides (only to encounter animals and even humans who take advantage of their extreme vulnerability). So glad for growing awareness to save these creatures (at 110 million years, among the oldest on earth).
This Man is a blessing from the heavens,
is there a Noble peace prize for Nature?
Thank you Len. You have a big heart and the turtles are grateful.
He's an amazing man. Thank you for saving our leather backs
David is a true legend .....! 🙏
Len, you are THE BEST kind of human. Thank you!
AMAZING! This man is a hero. He deserves all the recognition in the world🙌🏻
What a great human being, I'm glad we have him🙌
You guys are heroes, I salute you.
I never thought that this guy is the narrator of blue of bbc earth.. This guy is awesome, legendary voice and a good samaritan.. Loveyou from Philippines
Whats his name ?
Thank you thank you so much Len Peters for helping to protect these amazing creatures and also for educating the community and youths. 🙏 Looking at the wonderful work you are doing I feel so proud to be a Trinbagonian! 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹 Protect the leatherback turtles!
For whatever reason, the scene at the beginning of this video looks like terrible film CGI
2 Reasons.
1 : The unnatural light that is coming from the right
2 : The horrible TH-cam compression that happens especially for dark scenes making the video a pixelated color banding mess
TH-cam is bad at rendering dark scenes. Give Tom Scott's video about TH-cam compression a watch
looks like animatronics
Yeh as if Mappa did it.
@@rockysage7760 people acting as if the cgi in aot ruined their entire life just deal with it
The picture alone amazes me to see how huge these animals actually are.
Len is a hero... need more ppl like him
WE NEED MORE PEOPLE LIKE HIM
One time when me and my cousin went to Los Cabo’s we came across a sea turtle that was like 2-3 feet big and it was like half buried and so we pushed all the sand off of it . And in like 15 minutes it had made back to sea with 3 other baby turtles 🐢 ❤️❤️🐢
You are a brave man I salute you sir
True hero is one who saves a whole kind of species. Hats off my friend.
Nothing but respect! For this hero
One brave and beautiful soul changed the minds of an entire village. I love this video. Bravo.
Man actually converted a poacher, Diplomatic skills be high leveled XD
We need more people like this
Beautiful! What an awesome story. Every hand was up in that classroom, every child interested.
Thank you Len!!
This man enacted the change he wanted to see in his communety. Is everyone taking notes?
Great work. Love how he go against the stream and made people ended up respecting him and his work
The animal is majestic. Hope the species will thrive
First time I've heard of a Learherback Turtle. They look amazing and I'm glad they're being protected. Very nice.
Respect to this man. Standing up for what's right despite the fools hell bent on wiping out those turtles. His teaching efforts are priceless.
Wow I never knew that the Leatherbacks grew so big, and that was a great idea having the villagers protect them.☘️
Thank you for your work! We need more people like you!!
Incredible. Thank you so much!
I love this man!
My sister sent me another video about this magnificent leatherback crawling on a beach full of people. I saw some comments about the video people thought it to be photoshopped so I came here. All I can say is wow, just wow what a beautiful and unusual looking creature!!! I agree, more needs to be done by humanity as a whole in order for this species to thrive. Btw I love Blue Planet and this narrator keeps you coming back to watch more of these majestic animals.
I salute you Sir, you are a gift.. Thank you for saving those love leatherback turtles..
Such an amazing and relaxing voice mr.david.
such a great man
It’s so sad to see when my country used to be one of the place for these beautiful giant leatherback turtle to lay their eggs during before 2000. The population drops drastically. Would love to see this beautiful creature again here one day.
This good human protecting these majestic animals, great job!
In the last 2 months, there have been dozens of nest hatch on our beach here in the Philippines. Locals now protect the nest with enclosures until they hatch.
It's sad that people need to fight in order to protect this beautiful creature.
It's food to some
Animal kingdom: help
David: let me explain to my people
This man should be awarded Nobel prize.
Respect to you Mr. Len Peters. You are the man!
To the people who disliked this video, “you are MONSTERS!!!!!!!!!”
My donation has clearly been justified.
What an amazing man
Len is a badass. We need some more people like him.
Wait is this the same guy who voice over every animal/wild life documentary 😱
Yes. Sir David Attenborough. Legend narrator for wild life documentaries
Thank you very much
What a great story! This man made a difference and is a great example for all of us.
Thank you thank you so much! For saving them
😍 awesome!
We need your intervention please, the Gov't of T&T has banned Nature Seekers from doing patrols on the beach to protect the turtles.
Because they disturb them. Rangers patrol the beaches and other conservation groups.
BBC earth is the BEST....My heartiest regards to BBC earth for this humanitarian efforts
Brave indeed & so very smart how he took the project on. I'm quite impressed.
I finally know what this narrator looks like... I always try matching his voice to his face
You may search for his interviews to get closer view.his name is Sir David Attenborough
Hero.
Beautiful work protecting them!
Humility needs more of these ppl
Why would somebody dislike thid
Hahhaa. My thought exactly! I literally exclaimed "What?" What part of this video could have had a negative effect on a person. Uplifting story -> Down vote! 😖😆Madness!

I love seeing how one person really can make a difference .
U got a Awesome voice sir
4 cowardly poachers disliked this.
Sometimes those poachers do it to help their family. If there are better ways to support your family, the poachers not longer poach. At least the ones who are not evil, and are simply self interested whom I'd guess make up the vast majority.
That's a pretty picture, but I don't see how it justifies this behavior in any shape or form.
1982Lazarus You are doing something bad because this action helps you more than it hurts. If people are given better options, most will take them. If you give people the option of family or turtle, they will pick turtle. I know I surely would.
You and I are both lucky that we live in situations where our lives are comfortable enough that we can have insignificant discussions about turtles on the internet and not have to worry when our next meal will come or if we will be able to provide the basics for our families.
It’s a feel good thing to us because either way we have little to gain or lose.
Not pick the turtle above. Maybe my younger more naive self is trying to have his voice heard.
Andrew C what you said makes absolutely no sense, at least not when it comes to turtles.
My best and favorite narrator of them all .
God bless this man..
