Isn't it ironic that the pandemic makes the country where it all started flourish while delivering blow after blow to the US and Europe, it's main economic competitors? That's one smart bat/pangolin, serving the motherland.
You know, somebody should use Batman for an animal preservation PSA. In his case it would be bats like in this video. And then Beastboy could be used for a more general one. Bumblebee could be used for one for bees. Basically, any hero that has an animal or plant based power or motif could be used for really effective PSAs.
3:05 I don't know what's funnier. Batman randomly spouting a bat fact before he stops a crime, or Two-Face being so annoyed by it that he throws a grenade at him as he's in the same room.

About 10 years ago, I found a bat in my kitchen. I was surprised that it looked more like a cute mouse with wings than a blood-sucking animal. I called Animal Control and was surprised to see them place the bat it in a ziploc bag which they closed right up. Then I received a call telling me that the bat tested negative for rabies, but it was put to sleep anyways. I mention this because the video advises to call Animal Control, but I doubt they know that some centers would just kill the bat. This is a great video and it's too bad that bats are unnecessarily vilified. I'll definitely share this video with others.
I thought the only way to test for rabbies is to kill the animal. Because rabbies is a disease that affects the brain and you can't tell if an animal has it unless you look at its brain.
Kela Seyh Good point, Kela! What you said did sound familiar. I just read this: www.cdc.gov/rabies/diagnosis/animals-humans.html I remember that Animal Contol said made it sound like if I had been bitten by the bat, I could feel better that I didn't have rabies, as it tested negative. But I hadn't been bitten, so I didn't understand why a test to kill the bat was necessary.
***** The saliva needs to be 'introduced' into our body - usually, but not always, through a bite. Simply touching it will not give you rabies. There are other symptoms to look for as well. :)
I was bitten in the hand by a wild hamster more than a year ago, after cleaning the tiny wound I called disease control and asked if I need a vaccine. They told me that rabies are found mostly in city wild dogs and cats, and transmit quickly because these animals often fight and survive with bleeding wounds. Smaller animals like hamsters, when encountering rabies carrying dogs and cats, rarely survives so there 's little chance of transmission. In fact the last hamster bite transmit record they have was an infection in the 1980s so I would probably be fine, and I am fine. Don't know if it's the same with bats. But it can be something similar.
I don't know why people are so scared of them. They're like a combination of Cocker Spaniels, Chinchillas and Chihuahuas! They're so cute and cuddly looking!
Vampire bats are also characterized by being very sympathetic. As an evolutionary strategy they share food with other bats that are hungry, as an attempt to make friends that will share their food later too.
One minute i click on a vídeo called "I'm batman" at 4:10 I'm almost crying because humans are destroying our planet. Well, that was something. Bats are as cute as dogs, they shouldn't die.
once a baby bat came to my house, it did that for 3-4 days . I realized that it like my home so I planed on feeding it, don't blame me its so tiny and cute. Unfortunately I never saw it again.hope it is happy and with it's mama :)
I had a bat in my apartment once. I called my city's Animal Control (as directed by this video) and they came quickly. However, they did not humanely handle it. They snatched it with their stick grabber thing so violently, I swear it seriously injured the poor creature. The whole experience still bothers me. Poor bat.
Not mentioned was the fact that wind turbine kill thousands of bats each year. But since green energy is all the rage we can't point out that green energy is really a massive killer of bats and birds.
I am putting up bat boxes for my Eagle Scout Project, and I have learned a lot about bats and their preferences throughout the process. This video is very informative, cool, and helpful to anybody, regardless of their position on bats.
I wish I could make every single person on earth to watch all of Ted ED's video. I sent some of them to 9gag TV but it didn't get any attention from the public. Anyone please spread this message to as many as possible.
I loved how you worked all of the Batman lore into this wonderful presentation. Another way to help save bats is to stop using vast wind turbine farms as they are responsible for the death of over half a million bats every year. For those interested in a better green alternative (as those turbines are hardly green to begin with) I suggest thorium nuclear reactors which use a non-fissile element to power the reactor core.
The wind turbines do not give as much power as they are supposedly seen to give. It would take a turbine farm the size of Texas to power the world with wind energy. It is not as efficient as other green alternatives
@@pia1945 id say its because of the near impossible amount of resources and the money that, if it was in Texas, America wouldn't have. Iirc, i saw a Prager U ad that stated that nuclear energy, if used properly, is the worlds best form of energy to farm, but least popular cause there is no good way to remove the byproducts(we have a bunch of examples about that), and we've seen the horrors of what nuclear power can do if it fails at any given point(another event we've unfortunately seen a bit of in recent history)
0:29 No! I love listening to bats when they come to my yard for mangoes and sometimes they look adorable. One day there was a bat flying at night in a part of the university and it happened just when other girls were walking, I said to my boyfriend: Look how nice (Because it looked small for the size I am used to seeing them) and the Girls who were first scared of the bat stared at me with displeasure.

@Billie Eilish yes. bat has coronavirus in them. It’s not actually this harmful virus. But this time it jumped from bat to some other species then to human, most of them are say it’s pangolins because it’s common for Chinese to consume them including bats and other wild animals.

Definitely one of TEDs' most clever animation so far!

I think with "clever" he means teaching about bats while visually comparing to Batman's lore, Kurzgesagt has ducks and Tardis(es?)

Don't get me wrong, both are good.

It shouldn't be consumed .
