I went to the Cleveland Zoo back in the late 90's soon after they opened an indoor "rainforest" exhibit. As soon as you walked in, you got hit with a brutally nasty stench. Really, really bad. Lots of zoo animals stink, especially those kept inside. But this was exceptionally vile. Downright unnatural. Thank God I can't remember what it smelled like -- and I won't try to conjure the memory -- but I do remember it stunk terribly, all the way through the exhibit. And when we got to the end, where the stench seemed the worst.... there was some kind of anteater. So anteaters get my vote.
Clevelander here. It STILL stinks something awful. The animals are inside and most are in open air(no glass between us). There used to be a HUGE humid aviary. It smelled about the same. I remember never wanting to go in as a kid cuz it smelled so bad.
I met someone who had the mutation that made skunk smell like honeyed onion sauce. So when he got sprayed he had to ask others when it became tolerable.
Our family dog got sprayed by a skunk one year, to me the smell itself was not as bad as the intensity of it. After a while it just smelled like really burnt peppers to us. but even the food in the house started to taste like the smell
Some fly traps have a dormant bacterial powder in them, and when you add water, the culture comes to life and starts emitting a horrid rotten stench that flies can't get enough of, because it smells like decay - it's like a fly dinner bell. But if you really need to get rid of flies, it works like a charm.
I learned this the hard way. Was pretty fine for a few days but then we left for a weekend trip and the whole house smelled like rotten fish when we came back.
@@sabrinatscha2554 No, it's a specific type of fly trap, you'd know it if you bought one - it's like a clear bag with some white bacterial powder packet in the bottom. Fly traps work on a variety of principles but I've never seen one attract as many as this type. I was just using it as an example of organisms evolved to be stinky. For instance that stinky ant-eater attracting flies, may be because he has evolved to emit this decay stench to deter predators, since the flies are attracted to the specific chemical signature/signatures.
I worked in a Boba Tea place for awhile once; and we could make Durian smoothies (which were delicious!) and i didn't really mind the smell; but it literally did smell just like a gas leak. EVERY TIME, someone ordered it, a nearby white person would panic and be like "THERES A GAS LEAK" and get angry when we kept telling them it was just the Durian lol. Every time. TBH im kind of craving a durian smoothie now...
There’s definitely something weird going on with the smell of durian. Most people, even those who like how it tastes, don’t like the smell, but there are a few people, myself among them, who like the smell of fresh durian and don’t smell all the weird stuff that people attribute to the smell, like sweat or whatever. I don’t even like eating durian-more the texture than the taste, though I don’t like the taste much, either-but I find fresh durian quite pleasant smelling. I wonder if it’s sort of like how there are people who can taste some weird compounds in coriander/cilantro and hate it, and others who can’t and find it really tasty.
Except in this case, the majority of people dislike the durian smell while people (like me) who hate the taste of cilantro are in the minority. Another similar case is how only some people have the genes that make it so they can smell asparagus pee (that is, when other people eat asparagus and then pee, their pee smells VERY bad.
I’ve been curious about this too. Durian has been one of my favorite fruits since I was little, and I’ve tried again and again to pick up on the weird smells to no avail. It only smells sweet and delicate to me (which is odd since I’ve seen a lot of comments from people who like durian that still note the strong smells). It tastes sweet in a way that’s different to how most other fruits taste sweet. The best way I can explain it is that it’s creamy and I’ve eaten desserts where the fresh fruit is used as a filling as a substitute for regular cream.
Fun fact: some people think durian smells and tastes like vanilla ,pineapple, mango custard. Others think it smells and tastes like rotting garbage. Now, the reason why it can differ soooo wildly may have something to do with our genes! Much like our gene dependent smell and taste of cilantro. Some taste and smell dish soap. Others-herby deliciousness ! Our senses are amazing
🤣 NO ONE thinks durian _smells_ like vanilla or mango. it's mouth feel is like custard and tastes good but fwiw, in ten years in SE Asia I never met anyone who thinks it smells pleasant. tell me about who told you they think it smells like vanilla please? this blows my mind, I need to know! 💜😋
@@john-ic5pz Actually I wouldn't doubt it, I dethawed some frozen durian again from the same fruit just last night and its smell to me was pleasantly floral, like you were biting into a head of roses every time. It's too odd because its smell and taste were absolutely abhorrent when I tried to eat it in a still frozen state but seemed to change nature after it was made to be warm or room temperature. I even microwaved a bit of it to see if that made a difference and it did, it became odorless and the taste almost immediately reverted back to the more palatable floral nature. Everyone else in the house reported that microwaving it made the smell significantly worse however so this is definitely a me thing in some capacity.
It would be interesting if you made a video called like "Fossils Lost To TIme" or somthing like that where you would talk about fossils that have been documented but no longer seem to exist like the S. aegyptiacus that was blown up during WW2, the maraapunisaurus fossil that people think disintegrated, or other possibly more ancient examples of people discovering fossils that are now lost to history.
I am a super smeller. I lost my sense of smell with covid and only recovered about 70% of my smell two years later. But, i am EXTREMELY thankful for this! As most of earth and everything on it stinks. I walked around most days of my life nauseous from smelling awful smells of life. Now, i can walk around not on the verge of 🤮 because my sense of smell has lessened.
I wish there's is a odor equivalent of the Schmidt pain index. And not only that, but also someone who has just as much guts as Coyote Peterson, but instead, they deliberately smell such odorous organisms and broadcast their reaction.
My little sister and I were hanging out with some friends in the woods. Usual early teens in the early 2000's behavior. Anyways, she came across a baby skunk. I told her to leave it alone, at most admire it from a distance. My little sister being who she is, she refused to listen to me and continued to pester it by being very close and keeping it somewhat cornered. "Aww, it's doing a handstand!" For the uninitiated, that's threat posturing and the final warning a skunk will give. At this point, I had decided to let her suffer her oncoming fate, as she had already refused to listen. Sure enough, she got sprayed directly into her mouth. She certainly learned to leave skunks alone that day, and had to spend the next several days bathing in tomato juice, along with the clothes she was wearing that day needing to be thrown out. Other animal-related incidents where she simply didn't listen: While walking through the woods with her and my brother in law, we noticed a yellow jacket nest in the ground. We made a mental note of it for the walk back, and, on our return, my brother in law pointed at it and said, "Hey, don't step in that." As I passed it, I turned to my little sister and repeated the same warning, "Hey, don't step in that." The second my back was turned, she stepped in it, and immediately learned why that was a very bad idea. They came swarming out and attacked her, many of them getting caught in her hair, right near her scalp, giving them easy access to bite and sting her head. My brother in law, much braver and stronger than I was, grabbed her, held her in place, and began squashing them between his fingers. Once he was done, he threw her over his shoulder and carried her home. At a local park, we had a Chinese goose and his harem of geese. He was much larger than the others, so we nicknamed him "Quackzilla." One day, she decided it would be a brilliant idea to chase the geese there, and, as usual, corner them. Quackzilla had had enough of her antics and decided to flip the script, chasing her down, instead. I stood by and watched it unfold, as she bolted past me. Quackzilla came to a stop next to me, looked up at me, nodded his head as if to say, "You're alright," and I nodded back, then he went back to his girls. She left him alone after that, but he never forgot, and would often be more aggressive around her. She's not a very smart girl and incredibly obstinate, only learning something when her lack of knowledge and bad behavior blows up in her face and causes her problems. Moral of the story is: leave wild animals alone. If you respect them, they'll respect you. More often than not, they want nothing to do with you at all. Or, in essence, literally don't poke the bear.
As someone who loves durian, i can confirm that the smell is part of the charm, a more experienced connoisseur can differentiate between durian species from the nuances in the smell. It is also very delicious, if i had to describe it, it's a bit like pungent cheese with some sweet fruitiness
Honestly i feel that the smell of durian can’t be described, only experienced. Because from all the descriptions i see online, none of them actually do justice to the actual scent of the fruit.
Have i just been desensitized to the smell? My parents have fed me it since i was a toddler and i wouldnt describe the smell of it as negative in any way over a decade later
its smell, if you left it long enough you can smell 1 fruit frm 100m away. But the smell is not in a bad way, it make you want to smell it even more. Its unique can't be described kind of smell
Also, leopard scent markings smells exactly like buttered popcorn it’s insane. i smelled some grass that i literally watched a leopard scent mark and sniffed that shit and it felt like i was at a movie theater
Bed bugs smell pretty bad. I lived in a crappy apartment one time and the whole building was riddled with them. It's very faint but in aggregate they do smell, and when you crush them to kill them... blech. Worst stench. I know they can use dogs to smell for bed bug infestations which makes sense.
I don't think skunks should count, as anything coming from an anal gland for defense is going to smell bad. This should be about overall natural odor when not using a foul substance for attack.
I don’t know what most of these things smell like, but I can say skunk smell makes me absolutely nauseous if exposed to it for more than a minute. Living out in semi-country we get skunks that wander through and there have been many nights where I start dreaming of a foul smell and wake up to skunk smell that has permeated the house.
I nominate Garter Snakes.....the Rocky Mountain ones. They have a stink gland. I was fishing the Gardener River ages ago and a snake swam past my feet so I picked it up. Big mistake......it squirted stink juice all over my hands. Last Garter Snake I ever handled.
It's called musking, many snake species do it. The worst offenders are water snakes, since the musk is part of their digested prey and they primarily eat fish, it makes a very stinky combo
Durian: makes a smell to attract humans Also Durian: makes it skin spiky and tough as fuk that your hands would probably get cuts if you're not careful
Decaying things have a whole bunch of issues: 1. They can be sources of disease and parasites to be around. 2. Eating them frequently causes disease. 3. Dead things may well be attractive to predators that can tolerate eating rotting meat. These predators are dangerous, sometimes aggressive, and often have the same dangerous bacteria in their prey growing in their mouth resulting in a somewhat septic bite. 4. whatever caused that thing to die may still be present, and could cause harm or death to you if you approach.
We had a tree stump in our yard that got some sort of slimy disease. That Trunk literally smells like death. If you tried to climb on top of it you would slip like on ice.
At one point I lived with someone who loved Durian, and they brought it home without telling me. It wasn't unbearable, but sure smelled like something rotten and medicine, the nasty kind. As for taste... Yeah no, it tastes the same as it smells, but it's also sweet and has a buttery texture. Wasn't for me personally. Tho that tells me I'd survive most smells apparently lol
0:28 Penguins smell strongly of fish. I've been to many zoos, no amount of glass between the penguns and visitors can mask the dreadful smell of the "stinky penguins"
The worst I've ever smelled is vulture vomit. The one that really gets me and happens too often, is fox scent marking. It's so awful. Skunks are mild in comparison.
rotting gingko ‘fruits’ come to mind; gingko is dioecious and thus pollen is found on one tree and the female ovules are on their own, so female gingko trees are very rarely planted ornamentally because the outer seed coat decomposes into butyric and caproic acid, the former being found in human guts and the latter also being found in cheese. i think it probably works similar to a corpse flower?
Preach. My dormmate in college had shits that smelled so bad that I had to put a towel in the cracks of my door to stop the smell from seeping into my room.

So something I learned is that not everyone can smell that really strong ammonia smell from asparagus in urine!?! Unfortunately I can, in fact my sense of smell is actually highly sensitive.. my hearing and sight both suck, but I can literally smell a fart a mile away…yaaaay lucky me!!
My old patch of voodoo lily bloomed in coincidence with the community garage sale every year. If the wind was right it all went into the garage or down the drive. Ended-up putting a sign up preemptively apologizing. A few people were dry retching or just turned around and left grimacing. The worst though was a giant pig head I had not done anything with for a few weeks in the summer then boiled it in a trashcan to deflesh it. It was a biggun, the tusks came all the way round and impinged back through the lower jaw, babirusas style but bottoms. It had to be miserable with molars knocked out from the roots up.
These are also corspe lily. Many share that common name and bloom every year. Mine were 5 feet tall with 4 of that flower. Corms are available. Anything bigger than a softball is a good choice for large flowers. A bulb takes 5 to 6 years to get that big. Other arum are walnut nut sized like green dragon.
I should also specify they were winter hardy to zone 5b and outside in the ground. You don't need a greenhouse, just a patch of dirt. 5b is lots of snow and freezing to the point you can walk across rivers btw.
I can confirm tamanduas are super smelly. The had a couple in one of the zoos i visited in Venezuela. You could VERY CLEARLY smell them from about half a mile away
can wa talk about the fact, that the fruis of ginko trees reek of butyric acid .. that sickly sweet stench of vomit. allegedly because some critter from the ploicene was really into it.
Man I've smelled some pretty awful things. But I would say it's 100% relative. You can't go into a market in Singapore an not smell durian, you get used to it pretty quickly. I personally think North American porcupines smell awful, like a ten year old gym sock rubbed with onions and stale popcorn. My coworker said she really liked how they smelled. I honestly didn't think the corpse flower smelled that bad; not pleasant by any means but not "plug your nose and hold your breath" bad. It would be interesting to have a smell scale of some kind someday so we can truly rank them.
I saw a titan arum bloom at an indoor botanical garden once. It may have been the fact that everything around it smelled so good, but it didn't smell too bad. We get a lot of skunk roadkill here, when they're flattened they have this horrendous "incredibly smelly but also decaying animal" smell

0:28 Penguins smell strongly of fish. I've been to many zoos, no amount of glass between the penguns and visitors can mask the dreadful smell of the "stinky penguins"
The herb valerian should at least get an honorable mention but could easily be on the list.
The worst I've ever smelled is vulture vomit. The one that really gets me and happens too often, is fox scent marking. It's so awful. Skunks are mild in comparison.
I'm holding out for smell o' vision for just this purpose.
“Oh brother this guy stinks!”
rotting gingko ‘fruits’ come to mind; gingko is dioecious and thus pollen is found on one tree and the female ovules are on their own, so female gingko trees are very rarely planted ornamentally because the outer seed coat decomposes into butyric and caproic acid, the former being found in human guts and the latter also being found in cheese. i think it probably works similar to a corpse flower?
Me in middle school (I didn’t wear deodorant, I was stupid)
you could go the other way and wear 2 spray cans worth of axe body spray, which I'd say is equally bad
I think I smell quite bad right now
This video was so good, I loved the humor. Also the topic was so interesting I learned and laughed a lot.
great video! you always make me giggle and each upload is entertaining to watch. Looking forward to the next one!
You never fail to make me smile and snicker, your videos are just simply amusing
As a crust punk and powerviolence enjoyer, I believe I might qualify.
A joy and a masterpiece as ALWAYS. I love it so much.
I've been to Magdalena Island in Chile and I can tell you, penguins REEK.
Missed the perfect chance to say "smell you later" at the end.
I'm pretty sure durians only start reeking after heavy ripening/borderline rotting, the fresh ones basically smell like candy banana.
The worst-smelling organism on this planet is called the Hipster.
I think i found the worst smelling lifeform. It was my neighbor.
Preach. My dormmate in college had shits that smelled so bad that I had to put a towel in the cracks of my door to stop the smell from seeping into my room.
Ask your mom to move.

awesome video as always. perhaps an in depth video on a family of pterosaurs in the future? maybe azdarchids?
There’s a dude at my work that is commonly referred to as Smelly Kelli.
This search MUST start at a smash tournament or a CS class, anything else is fraudulent
I'm glad to have narrowly avoided making the list.
Pretty sure there’s some record breaking specimens you can find at a Smash Bros tournament.
Without prior knowledge and based purely on hypothesis, the worst smelling life form would be your mother.
So, now I'm wondering: What is the BEST smelling lifeform? Are there ANY animals that smell really good?
There's a type of fox/civet cat that smells like dessert :9
@@ris_din I heard there was an animal like that which smelled like popcorn... maybe that's the same animal?
@@MatthewTheWanderer you're thinking of the binturong, one of the stranger looking critters
I really love your content! It's been a major inspiration in my life, I'm about to go into in Senior year and your videos have really widened my horizons to what I wanted to do with my life 🙏🙏 Keep up the good work and god speed 🐛⬆️
Excellent writing!
Durian smells nice to me and they taste good too, but I hate the soft texture
Ant eaters are also tamanduas. It's just the guarani word for it.
Time to make a smell chart!
So something I learned is that not everyone can smell that really strong ammonia smell from asparagus in urine!?! Unfortunately I can, in fact my sense of smell is actually highly sensitive.. my hearing and sight both suck, but I can literally smell a fart a mile away…yaaaay lucky me!!
I love your channel so much, I can’t wait for another upload!!
My old patch of voodoo lily bloomed in coincidence with the community garage sale every year. If the wind was right it all went into the garage or down the drive. Ended-up putting a sign up preemptively apologizing. A few people were dry retching or just turned around and left grimacing.
The worst though was a giant pig head I had not done anything with for a few weeks in the summer then boiled it in a trashcan to deflesh it. It was a biggun, the tusks came all the way round and impinged back through the lower jaw, babirusas style but bottoms. It had to be miserable with molars knocked out from the roots up.
These are also corspe lily. Many share that common name and bloom every year. Mine were 5 feet tall with 4 of that flower. Corms are available. Anything bigger than a softball is a good choice for large flowers. A bulb takes 5 to 6 years to get that big. Other arum are walnut nut sized like green dragon.
I should also specify they were winter hardy to zone 5b and outside in the ground. You don't need a greenhouse, just a patch of dirt. 5b is lots of snow and freezing to the point you can walk across rivers btw.
“Undisputed SOAT” had me laughin
The bird MS Paint demonstration was the funniest bit dude 😂
I absolutely adore you’re videos I’ve seen every single one. You’re amazing looking forward to the next one.
Skunk really doesn't even smell bad, its just a very pungent kinda humid overpowering smell, but by no means does it stink.
You just need to go to a big city and you can smell one hoping on the public transit
I’ve been around penguins and they do indeed smell. Not as bad as pigs, but definitely not pleasant.
Step mom with a yeast infection. Pass on Christmas.
You've heard of Rizz, but musk ox got the pizz
Me and my dad once rode our motorbike behind a truck that's carrying a lot of pigs and boy the smell was awful
Don't forget the axe user in the locker room
MTG Convention killed me lol. Neckbeards ruin everything.
You mad cuz you still roll with a standard deck from the cold snap release in the early 90s lol yeah some of us do smell … intense lol
Then you have me, a 22 year old who was born without a sense of smell
One of the few time we still haven’t invented smell-0-vision
"mtg convention" pretty good
Some great lunchtime material haha
HES BACK
*Looks around nervously*
I...i think durian smelled good...uhhh.
I can confirm tamanduas are super smelly. The had a couple in one of the zoos i visited in Venezuela. You could VERY CLEARLY smell them from about half a mile away
This is a job for Nilered
I hope you know how much people love your videos
Durians be like "please notice me senpai"
I heard Occelots are pretty smelly. Tho the worst thing I've smelt is seal faeces.
You should do a video on groups of species that are dinosaur-adjacent (dinosauromophs or something)!
I’ve gotten to experience a blossomed corpse flower in person. It smelled just like fish, still smelled bad but not as bad as people think it is
can wa talk about the fact, that the fruis of ginko trees reek of butyric acid .. that sickly sweet stench of vomit. allegedly because some critter from the ploicene was really into it.
Great Channel and Better Content Dude
Man I've smelled some pretty awful things. But I would say it's 100% relative. You can't go into a market in Singapore an not smell durian, you get used to it pretty quickly. I personally think North American porcupines smell awful, like a ten year old gym sock rubbed with onions and stale popcorn. My coworker said she really liked how they smelled. I honestly didn't think the corpse flower smelled that bad; not pleasant by any means but not "plug your nose and hold your breath" bad. It would be interesting to have a smell scale of some kind someday so we can truly rank them.
how on earth did you get the chance to smell an American porcupine 😭 are you a zoologist
Love your vids man keep it up
Those three hoopoe chicks in 5th at photo are ewey, puey, and looie.
Durian smells fine to me. I don't even eat it much. Must be a genetic thing
This needs an update to include the Asmondia goldus, truly the stinkiest lifeform.
this is like a love poem to the durian
The durian tastes the way it smells. It's vile.
I can’t believe the adorable cutest lil tamandua is so stinky
Yeah penguins and seals smell bad, imagine soggy chicken covered in bird poo and mountains of salt
Kind of off-topic, but would you consider doing a video of the tuatara? I think that would be pretty neat.
Can confirm penguins freaking reek. The Detroit Zoo has a penguin house and it smells foul
Babe wake up, Budget museum is uploading
I saw a titan arum bloom at an indoor botanical garden once. It may have been the fact that everything around it smelled so good, but it didn't smell too bad.
We get a lot of skunk roadkill here, when they're flattened they have this horrendous "incredibly smelly but also decaying animal" smell
