Love it
I'm an Opera user. Great app.
For spiders you forget the the net casting web and bolas web
3:48 the Human figures is missing a whole 6 digits, it's 400 Million Tons of livestock and fishes.
i never understood the spider hate, they literally kill flies and mosquitoes
I don't hate them. I do hate asshole wasps though...but spiders here in Newfoundland are pretty harmless and like you said they eat other pests!
I’ve had a fear of spiders since I was real young but I find them interesting at the same time, and I’ve been trying to get rid of my fear for like two years now.
I fear them, not hate them
@@admiralackbar6586 Learn more about them, by doing so my fears have settled over the years. They also have some cool species. Some are even social have varying personality from more docile to more aggresive. There is a spider that eats from a plant instead of just insects. IIRC, the scarlett legged jumping spider hunts other spiders.
I personally don't fear spiders but I don't want as a pet either. I don't like them crawling on me as it is so soft that it actually tickles but being bitten when I discover it. It is not really a hate, why hate something that has done nothing to you, but a fear. Spiders are small, can scare you if encountered unawares, are weird insect-like creature but not an insect and we humans don't know much about them other than they do bite, As I said we humans fear them not hate them. Like mice small, quick and can be unexpected encounter! We know they will kill so that is to be feared.
E.B. White taught us all about spiders ballooning in our childhoods.
“Look! The baby spiders are climbing up, up the rafters to where the breezes are blowing! They’re floating away on little clouds of silk…”
This channel brings me back to the feeling i got when watching early planet earth when my whole house was asleep before school, only thing to get me out of bed as a kid (also croc bosses)
I've spun silk hanks on a drop spindle before. It's so incredibly soft and fine. It will snag on your fingerprints if you aren't careful. And it sucks up dye like its drinking from a straw. It's no wonder silk is so prized!! I do reccomend it as a hobby btw. Spinning anything is so soothing.
As a fellow spinner, I agree! Although, silk is kinda evil in a way lol… Put too much pressure on the fibers whilst drafting, and they will cut you! I get mini-papercuts on my thumb when I spin silk roving. Silk-cuts? Eh.
I wasn't ready for the Spider-Goat
No one is ready for the spider goat.😊
I was
That footage of the scientist milking the goats while giving a thumbs up made me laugh out loud
I believe the currently oldest spider types are the tarantulas and they are sheet web spiders. This makes sense because Tarantulas don't use their webs to catch prey but merely to alert them when prey steps it. They then run out of their lair and ambush the prey.
Incredible. I’m amazed that they discovered a new species of spider in Peru, the country of my ancestral roots. Thank you, Dufault.
@3:52 Those stock footage people are just having a good ol' time
Too bad the numbers are missing some zero's!
@@tofanalexander 400 Tons would be the amount of food eaten in a regular day average in the US.
I honestly didn't think this episode would interest me, but I trusted you as usual and you did not disappoint!
Love me some animalogic on Friday afternoons ❤
The legendary Mithril, the age of silk will yield many comfortable steps forward silk is really so cool!
I expected a reference to the "spiders on drugs" video with the old school doc footage tbh
That was an awesome episode!!
Phenomenal episode 🎉
that statistic at 3:50 seems suspect - all of humanity together consumes just the equivalent of less than a thousand cows in meat and fish? i think there may be a few zeros missing...
Yeah... agree many zero's are missing!
6 zeros. Fairly minor miscalculation on the editor’s part… my county probably eats 400 tons per year
This was a outstanding episode! Good work
another wonderful presentation!
Hey, silk's one of the few things that ever stopped Godzilla.
MASURAAAA YA!
Masuraaaaa!
excellent, as usual! thanks.
I watched this on Opera. Good video.
Glory and praise to the Silken Ones! The Lords and Ladies of Silk are as many, as they are magnificent.
LEDs not making heat is likely an important reason Spiders will build around lights now
I really love the old clips you guys put in these videos. And I like Tasha now😢
Fragile and magical shadows
Silently start to appear
Lovely and lyrical
Silvery miracle...
i would love to hear more about how one species' evolution takes into account other animals and their evolution. we always hear about the evolution of one species, but it seems like we never hear about all creatures evolving at the same time.
I know it was part of the Opera Ad, but there is a duo of designers that did make a dress and a shawl out of golden orb weaver silk. It’s a gorgeous golden canary yellow and supposedly very light. Quick web search should find them.
I'm loving the look Ms. D ❤
I remember seeing a shawl made from spider silk. It was from Madagascar, they collect golden orb weavers, milk them and them release them.
not that I disliked the woman who was in the episodes besides you, but you make this Channel so unique and entertaining:)
8:05 "It lived in a time before trees."
Isn't that tree sap it's encased in?
babe wake up new animal logic video dropped
Does anyone know the name of the song that plays at 6:30
Maybe for a future video you could talk about large animals like elephants or giraffes and how they shape their environment.
I need an episode about shells!
I'm not afraid of spiders it's just the tickle of this creature if it gets on you 😭😭. Spiders are amazing. 😂
With the weather warming up, I've started to notice more bugs coming indoors. In particular, woodlice and ants within my apartment. The happy thing is that a spider has been living down by my kitchen floor and catching a good portion of these things. I have to destroy its web once in a while when cleaning, but I refuse to kill it. As far as I'm concerned, it's paying rent in its own way.
10:18 I figured that was a known trait common to many species.
I can go take a photo of one in my shed tomorrow - not going in there at night.
Yes... you can guess where I live.
Could you do the Canadian Ojibway Spirit Horse aka Lac La Croix Indigenous Pony? They're supposed to be an endangered species of horse that predates colonization!
Off topic, but do you think you guys would ever consider making a floralogic episode on perennials? My yellow tulips came up with red streaks in them this year and the genetics of perennials really interest me. For example, what process makes them come up looking different? ❤
I want an episode on symbiosis. Seems like a very interesting topic.
I remember reading an old science fiction novel about colonizing the moon using gigantic spidersilk domes a long time ago.
What’s the name of that book?
The first part of the video is a great argument to invest in bug spray companies
Oh man, I forgot that the weaver ants use their babies as squishy little glue-guns. That's so remarkable honestly.
As far as spiders go. I'm not afraid of them anymore, but I have a rule that they can live in my house, as long as I don't SEE them. They can make their webs, eat gnats and go about their lives, but don't let me see you little guys and don't be within 3 feet of me. We can co-exist that way lol.
Sea silk -- mind blown! 😱😱 As for the spider goat, Homer had spider pig, so why not. 🤷♂
Spidergoat, spidergoat, does whatever a spidergoat does
Im your fan Danielle!
Can we get more on the carp/fish silk?
It is possible to make a dress with spider silk. There is a cape made from spider silk made for some Chinese emperor, I remember seeing it in a museum somewhere
Geometric beauty & skill of spider net is too familiar to us all, but come to think of it, there's no need to suppose they used to build it from the early stages of their evolutionary history. Science will reveal a stunning fact some day. Development of soft-& hardware for a natural art, step by step.
Blackbeard loved silk scarves. I'm so bummed that they cancelled his show!
Would love to see the evolution of quills and spines, which could then spin-off into a small tangent about pangolin scales
We did an episode about spines and quills in Season 1! th-cam.com/video/dVnLRUXVW6U/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Clyc5ijUgnCF--g3
Wait, you just blew my mind at 7:15. I never understood what the idea behind Toby McGuire Spider-Man just shooting his webbing up into the air, and swinging from it. So ballooning is the first possibly legit answer to what his webs clung too 😮
have you done a show on hyraxes yet?
From messing obstacle to nature's toughest material, is from some animal's web 🕸️
This is old news, the government owns this material, its already made into gear worn for the most dangerous missions, its regenerative powers for the wearer, and its never degrading, ripping, and never punctured to tear. Imagine pockets working for one hundred years, Spider Silk.
The idea for many B movies which involves with giant spiders.
@@XenoRaptor-98765 The Indonesia Spiders ruled islands ruined by illegal mercury and cyanide gold mining operations. The Silk woven contained the strongest super material known on earth, it was called Future Silk.
Very interesting.
So, one guy in China, like 5000 or 7000 or 10.000 years ago thought "hey, I can use these like we use cows and goats, and make dresses and shirts with this, and maybe sexy underwear."
That's pretty cool 😎
It's amazing, what we can do.
400 million years ago is not only older than trees, but about the same age as Saturn's rings.
your CC seems a little broken
Want to know how a spider feels? just lay in the middle of a big bed, when someone else sit on the bed, you will immediately know where they are on the bed
do an episode on weaver ants plz
Lets see some charts about HOW LONG ANIMALS LIVE
I don't like most spiders but I love tarantulas and jumpers! They are fluffy and look more like mammals than typical insects
Spiders aren’t insects
Hey Danielle - Hobe your hair colorist come back from vacation soon. Love the wild hair.
Spiders are amazing!
Goat silk, why don’t think our future selves will ask:what were they thinking?!
@3:51 - weird kink, but to each his own
the spiral web is the most *popular*....I didn't realize there was a community of spider web enthusiasts 😂
How similar chemically is the silk produced by these different creatures that developed it convergently?
lol now i'm imagining city spiders chowing down on tiny little hamburgers XD
I have to onder if it would be wiser to put the silk production genes into the wool production portion of a sheep's genome.
Well spiders developing the same techniques thousands of miles apart is no mystery. They're all very active on the web.
In Antartica
If you fart
It still stinks
I'm so confused right now? Why do Sydney funnel webs build webs. If they're mygalomorphs?
I Love You, Danielle!
Your friendly neighborhood Spidergoat!
Creatures with built in creation abilities are indeed fascinating, unfortunately they're only somewhat pragmatically intelligent. I've seen web-making spiders wrap strands around a recently dead beetle in order to pulley it up into the nest and keep it as a sealed snack. But besides things like that, they don't understand doors, mirrors, and definitely don't work together even in the ideal circumstance they're all well fed enough to live in a community. Makes me wonder if their abilities actually deprive them of the selective pressure for higher intelligence.
❤❤❤
BUG VIDEO LETS GOOOOOOOO
Oh, great... all I ever wanted, bigger and more numerous spiders, that can crawl during day.
8:15 Well, I'm confused. If the proto-spiders lived "before the first tree ever lived", how did the one shown in the video become encased in amber?
They could be around at the same time eventually. It's not like it was exclusively alive before trees, they could have co existed
@@PlatonicDIVAtrue.
I thought solifuge like the camel spiders were spiders with no spinnerets
Spider-goats?! Ok beyond the initial shock, I'm curious as to why goats? Could other animals be used for this same purpose? If this was used in humans, would we be able to produce silk the same way?
Putting old b/w clips between is so last year
Spiders be smarter than Einstein and Newton combined 😂
They be talking like: I discovered the meaning of 42 before I had my coffee today. What did you do? 😂
❤❤
Long as no one tries to patent natural spiders...
i can understand eating that many insect though, most of that calories are used on the webbings
now go for snow leopard in Nepal Himalayas.
She's very beautiful ❤
😮😮😮Spiders could have made us a sponsor, if they had left off the poison to use in biting people. Without that aspect, people could have worked with spiders to get rid of insects in and around our homes. We can get over ugly, as people have shown, but they don't get over dying of a spider bite, from a Brown Recluse, or Black Widow..
If spiders didn't bite, people wo? a spider, children consider it one, and leave it be, even if it lives nearby.
8:20 facehugger energy 🏃♀️😓
But where is the Spider-Pig?
I don't care what you say I still have an irrational fear of butt thread
Spiders were done sirty by society.
I'm amazed by and love spider webs but i can't look at a spider, not even on this video 😂. It's an irrational fear, I'm well aware, but I've been this way all my life.
is she hiding a teddy bear under that shirt ?
I tried. I love this show, but as an arachnophobe who has held a tarantula, I’ll finish tomorrow.
3:52 What the actual fuck is the deal with this stock footage?
