- Dive into the raw reality of Louisiana's swamps. 🌍🐊
Facing an unprecedented drought, what was once expansive wetlands stretching across acres, is now a reduced, consolidated body of water. This swamp bed, which is typically 3 feet higher, reveals its depths barely reaching a foot due to the climate's challenge. Yet, beneath its shallow surface, the mighty alligator gar, ancient creatures predating even the dinosaurs, struggle for 215 million years of survival legacy. Will Mother Nature bring the rain they desperately need? Explore this Spartan journey of nature's resilience and survival. - บันเทิง
I just moved to Louisiana this year. It breaks my heart to see the drought, I never imagined it would be this way.
Thank humans
Lil Wayne done said the drought is ova… don’t believe the hype
Hell, the computer at work has a weather app, and it showed a fire advisory. Pulled it up and damn near the entire state was under a full red fire advisory. Never seen that before.
Gonna get worse before it gets better. Eventually it just wont get better though. Louisiana is a terrible choice to move to. Education, healthcare, employment rates, crimrates, aside, the whole state is gonna be one of the first uninhabitable states due to climate change. If you simply dont believe in it, then be my guest.
@@garfoonga1 crime here ain't bad if you stay out of New Orleans proper.
Spotted gar! But yes, they breath air and can live without water for up to 48hours like their larger cousins
They can go into a suspended stasis in the mud too
How do you identify them when theyre all covered in mud?
@@keek1337 they have very different mouths
@@DarkGrottan I see. Thx
And they are disgusting stinky fish with shark teeth. What purpose do gar have in the ecosystem?
It's been one dry summer here in South Georgia. I can not even begin to tell you the amount of wells I've had to pull around here so the farmers can water their crops. I'm praying for rain 🙏
Georgia would flourish with more hydroponic farms and less monoculture :( I hope you guys get rain soon
@eaterofcrayons7991 I'm talking hundreds of acres. Them center pivot irrigation that have tractor tires on them. I drill them also build them plus the electrical side.
Dirty 30's gonna repeat. Prepare for dust bowl
@@garfoonga1 oh dear God I hope not
Your damn short-baited me I had to go onto the channel and find out what the heck was moving in that swamp. I hope it rains soon for y'all and the fish and everything else
Same here.
Them louisiana folks are just built different. As soon as that water started moving my heart would've exploded😂😂😂
I was a little freaked out but he had them fancy wet pants on so I figured nothing but an alligator could seriously hurt him so I was chill. (Btw idk what his pants protecter things are actually called)
Man I love the videos where you feature the nature around the farm so much
"215 million years" in that Louisianan accent made my hair rise
Lmao it did strike the core a little didn't it?? 😂❤
No I’m a Christian and 215 million years ago the earth is only in the thousands part of years
@@tehwobblez1337😂 yeah bro 😂❤

What do you think about this season? Are we in trouble?
No one is “in trouble” there are tons of other food options. You sound like a dam biden supporter
His company has a really good set up, the ability to flood their ponds even when it doesn’t rain for a while (I think, maybe not though) but the majority of fishermen will struggle, yes, this season is probably going to be rough
It’s all about the precipitation from the top. Gonna be a rough season
@@imchillin8824
How bout all the ruined cane fields? You think those farmers aren't in trouble?
As a 15 year old born and raised in Louisiana Cajun this drought is really messing up are beautiful state
The drought is worse than some people think. I have a 2 acre pond and it’s usually pretty deep. Now, it’s only a couple of feet
Fr?😮
@@liamseegobin9105 ye it’s bad
@@Nate_The_Beameraerator would do wonders, keeps water moving and better temperature, stagnant water evaporates much faster than water with just a little movement. obviously with a 2 acre, it won’t get all of it but it will help.
@@peytonismyname9258 The drought is starting to stop, so now we’re pulling trees out the banks of the pond so that once we get some rain we can fish
Sounds like a fisherman’s pay day
😂🤝
i have been living in louisiana for all my life and i remember the 2018 snow. the first snow my kids ever saw.
Man I've been trying to catch a gar all summer and this guy just picked one up by hand.
They’re everywhere down here in South Carolina
@@Tsanoado u fish in Columbia ?
@@timothy8430 yea I fish all 3 rivers
Use fairly small very sharp hooks
Can y’all make like full length 10 minute or more clogs about the process I bet that shit would go crazy especially cause you could show each part of the process throughout the seasons
Thanks for that. Awesome video. Way to keep us informed.❤
Ok just a correction for the firer not being a jerk or anything I’m into fishing a lot those are spated gar very similar just alligator gar get gait like 12 feet long I hope u guys are ok with that season
Spotted gar sorry can’t type
Long nose gar yes. Alligator gar no
Bro that creeps me out but also looks fascinating
This is so beautiful. Thanks for take us with us again. Healthwishing hugs from Germany. Igor the Crawterback
For people who didn’t watch the video, they are Alligator Gar
Hope u know we watching u after that Maryland video homie. Stay safe 🙈
New subscriber ✌🏾
Yeah those are alligator gar. Draught jacked up water levels
Love alligator gar, caught one with some friends about 20 mi out of New Orleans that was about 6 ft
Incredibly southern.
Shrek be like: get out of my swamp👺
Hook up grey water pipes to allow to use laundry, shower and dish water to water your gardens. With in a couple of months the rain should arrive. Be aware that to much rain will flood instead.
I have never in my life seen so many alligator gar in a small area. What 25 per foot😮
We call them Garr Pike up north. You should see some of the relatives of the garr, tiger pike, and muskelunge or musky's, they can get huge in the north land of the shield, maybe 30lbs or more!!
Aligator gar!
"And we'll ship 'em live to your door."
I’d love this if it was in landscape…
It is my dream to catch one of those and bro caught it with his hands.
Rather catch it with y’all hands than take the hook outta its mouth y’all
These werent alligator gar he was wrong
There babies I think
Out in Texas they got some huge ass ones in the lakes
Caught one when I was a kid it freaked me the fuck out and almost took my dad's thumb off
I heard they taste good?
@@trumpy9223that's definitely gar
Spotted gar, they are smaller
Looks like gar actually
He said it was an alligator gar.
It's actually probably a spotted, but, still, gar.
Good to hear you belive the worlds is millions of years old.
These days its almost rare
Alligator gar
When I met my husband he took me fishing for the first time in Boca Grande which is brackish water the first thing I caught was one of these monsters. I instantly saw it screamed it snap the line. I've never been fishing again
That's the most gar I ever seen
nice
Well I hope this cool weather we’ve been having in Texas carries over and gives yall some rain
Shit even here in Vegas we received a lot of rain
That's a lot of Alligator Gar trapped in that mud. Seems like they'll need a whole lot of water to get out of this predicament.
I totally thought catfish, but glad I watched the vid to find out! Cool.
Answer is that it’s Alligator Gar! 🐟
Hello Jennifer, how are you doing today
*spotted gar
Damn really hope big man upstairs bless yal with some rain
I love me some gar nuggets
Hello julian, how are you doing
While farming crawfish, how much different wildlife feeds off the pond?
Feisty little critters and yes they will tear up your fingers be careful! 😅
I think those are spotted gar
Alligator Garr I’d say an over population of them !!?
There has been human tampering with the Mississippi River. Dredging to make it deeper comes to mind. A lot of this is man made and Louisiana has had droughts before. It will survive. One summer it rained every day for six weeks. I'm sure the rains will return.
I watched the video and their alligator gar
Wish i had money to travel down there to relocate them.
Good rain hell.... GOOD EATING!
You gonna make Gar Balls? Only way I ever heard to eat them. Have to soak the meat over night in salty water with lemon juice in it just to make them taste any good at all.😊
I hope you relocate them to a nearby river. Love your content.
All 20,000 of them? lol
Then you would change the ecosystem of that body of water!!
Can't save em all, should break the naivety before it gets you hurt irl
It’s alligator gar I watched the video
Heartbreaking to see.
Catch them to make gar balls and sell the hell outta them too!
Pov: secret water boss fight
Not alligator gar necessarily. Probably long nose, short nose, or spotted.
Yup. Sad, but still nightmare fuel, especially knowing about what type a critter it is. 😂
Seed the clouds !
your in the swamp of Sadness in Fantasa in Never Ending Story.
Could one catch and release these dinosaurs in a big river somewhere?
Looks like a spotted gar
Snakes? Snakes snaaaakes? Snakes its gotta be snakes
I stand corrected it was infact not snakes
Looked like it could a been snakes, though!
Run a hose out there and give em sone water. Just a little, on top of the mud.
Looks like the trash compactor scene in A New Hope 😂
How old do you think they are and did you see any big ones??
Alligator gar in dried up swamps
Wow- can those be eaten?
I'll save you some time it's just alligator gar ina nearly drained out swamp.
Alligator Gar
Crawfish
Did they get their rain???
My first time thought was catfish
And we ship alive to your door 😅
Its a boss battle
Do some catch and cook
Gar can survive in a very swallow puddle for a long period of time due to their ability to breath air. Which is why they have survived as an apex predator for so long
All the cloud seeding and they let this happen…?
Tell me it’s not intentional
To save some of your time, it was some sort of alligator
No, they're Gar (I don't remember if gar or gars is plural), alligator gar are a type of gar, which are fish. That being said, while these are gar, they're actually spotted gar, alligator gar are usually much bigger iirc.
How much for that mt friend?? 1 want to buy 2 if for sale
Bunch of fish
Rain is coming this wk
The earth is less than 10,000 years old fyi. God bless
No, it isn't
@@Pk-io6xe Much love bro
And yet tons of evidence point against that.
How much for a pack of Bhutan, a packet of blue crab in a packet of crawfish how much?
Its scp 811 swamp lady
I watched it is a gar
So sad 😢
Hello beautiful, how are you doing today
How can he lose his finger?
😮😢
They are gar
Put a camera by a crawl, fish trap and see what happens
Answer, alligator gar
cant you catch and sell em?
Gar?
Type of fish if you didn't know.
Dang those are all going to die
jar ball's anyone
Darwin. If there are 250 million of the buggers the species is fine. This might be fertilizer but they are expendable.
Gar? Yes. Alligator gar? Nope. Longnosed or spotted gar but not alligator gar which have a blunt snout.
What’s the song?? Please
