You should see the ones here throughout America they're super adorable. They have faces just like beavers They kind of look like bigger hedgehogs way bigger hedgehogs
I saw a reel by a vet who took advantage of the softness of the shell of a deformed metabolic bone disease turtle in order to correct the shape. She made a contraction that slowly pulled the shell back into the correct shape much like human dental braces.
Oh no lol little dude wants to play tag lol. I love that you guys are doing cameos, someday I'll ask for one when I have the money. I have a job but still broke I guess that's life. But anywho love the vlog and I hope you all have an amazing rest of the night
Wilbur, Puddles, Amy Swinhouse, and Molly you are the sweetest little big piggies. I am so happy these pigs hit the jackpot. Prayers for the turtle. Blessings.
You guys offer so much fun information. Thank you so much, you guys are gonna change. The world, as far as letting people know what it's like for animals in Florida.
Great vlog today Thank you!!!! Little dude can be so funny Love that you guys spend so much time with the animals. I appreciate how you go into great detail explaining things with the animals like with Tad Pole and even Poor Larry I know you guys will do everything you can for him Thank you you're truly appreciated Chris and Gabby have a nice night guys and hope ya feel better Chris!!!!
Interesting about the freezing water with the atoms 🧪🐊👩🔬 I love biology and science related stuff learning new animal facts and earth and space facts. That poor turtle it's shell is so soft it's heartbreaking 💔
Little dudes zoomies are so dangerously funny😅😅😅.. Poor little turtle,its already been ireversably damaged.. Hope he lives better life rest of the time..
As someone who constantly dislocates ribs and has Asthma I think i can safely say it’s really not fun trying to fight against your ribs to breathe I feel so sad for that poor little guy I’m sure you guys will give him all the care and support he needs

Thanks for showing all my favorite ❤️ animals in the blog as well as stating their names. My favorite animals are as follows: Jellybean, Hazel and of course Patuyah my girl!!!! Plz give us an update on Waffles the turtle 🐢 or bring us along for the journey also praying for a speedy recovery as well as living despite the odds against the turtle. Love your videos and plz give Patuyah a big kiss 😘 on the lips 👄 for me 😂😂🤣
You beat me to saying it... about ice being less dense and floating being an insulating barrier and the reason life exists at all. Have you seen The Europa Project movie? The concept comes up. Poor little turtle.
Hey... Inverness has a Cooter festival every year...lol Maybe have a video to play there on the care and feeding of Florida's turtles and the need to have a wild ecology to be raised in?
You may want to reach out to Chris and Casey at GST. They rescued a turtle (iirc a tortoise) similar to yours. You could see her breathing, her shell was that soft. I can't recall if that turtle survived because one of their concerns was that as the shell hardened, her lungs would not have enough room :( It's so sad to see animals with these conditions and I am grateful that people like you and others are there to save the ones you can 💗🐢🦎🐍🐊🐸🐾
That poor little turtle. Seeing him in that condition just breaks my heart. Why on God’s green earth do people buy animals without first doing research on their proper care? It’s so infuriating. I pray he can be saved and live his long life at Bellowing Acres. Chris, sure hope you feel better. Stay warm. It’s supposed to be 19 degrees tonight in Knoxville TN.
Little Dude makes our Native North American porcupines look so small. I really hope the vet and you can help that poor turtle. His condition makes me so sad and angry. Sending healing energy to the poor little tyke.
Not at all I've seen a few porcupines here in Michigan and they are just about as big as him and they were amazingly beautiful. I didn't even realize we had him them here but sadly I'm not sure how long they lasted because I've only seen them like one time and then never again. And I always have food out for wildlife. Anyhow they sometimes stop in the middle of the road and stick their quills up and it's too funny. They are super cute they have like the beaver face.
OMG Love him already he so darn cute little dude is epic this make me so mad when i see people do not do there research on animals omg my first pet was a chameleon well i rescue him as my friend never look after him he was very sick and so many surgery cost us lots but he live for 5 years now i have a bearded dragon and i do my research on her too feel sorry for the turtle grrrrr so mad
If ya have a chance to get some bone broth, it will help make ya feel better, especially this time of year, warm it up and drink a couple cups during the day. Usually grocery stores have it. beef or chicken bone broth. I swear by over the counter zinc for nex ttime before going, swear by it! Great vid!
Hi Chris and Gabe.. so good feeding could help the turtle? Like more calcium in his feeding?.. talking about not healthy guys.. How is Gastone doing with the cold and the fact he cant go underwater? Are you heating up his water too?.. I probably missed that part in some videos.. thank you so much(and sorry for my english)..
Way back in high school, one student in physics class asked what would happen if ice didn't float. The teacher replied grimly, "It would be the end of the world." You might as well asked him what would happen if the moon were to disappear. 8)
So the turtle is 15 year old turtle and they thought “hey I think there’s something wrong with it now.” It’s been breathing like this its whole life. Sad.
I can only think that the only way the poor turtle is able to breathe is because the shell is soft. I think if it didn’t expand it would be worse or am I wrong??

The quality of that poor turtle’s life is horrific. He’s suffering…struggling to breathe, digest, and I imagine in pain. To me, is not a kindness to prolong life under those conditions.
So did the previous turtle owners not notice anything was wrong for the last 15 years??!! 'm glad they gave them to you guys now but 15 years is a long time to have a turtle that looks like that and not do anything about it. WTF
Poor turtle :( I can see Chris getting choked up talking about him Ty for caring so much about these creatures
Prior to Little Dude I never thought a porcupine could be so freaking cute.
You should see the ones here throughout America they're super adorable. They have faces just like beavers They kind of look like bigger hedgehogs way bigger hedgehogs
Hi Chris Littte Dude was cute chasing you. Thanks for explanation about the ice. I hope that turtle makes it. Cindy
Sending prayers and positive vibes for that poor turtle, I really hope that it can be saved and get better
Thank you
YES!! thank you.

I saw a reel by a vet who took advantage of the softness of the shell of a deformed metabolic bone disease turtle in order to correct the shape. She made a contraction that slowly pulled the shell back into the correct shape much like human dental braces.

Those lucky animals. It must be like living at a resort with 5 star accommodation.👏 amazing effort. ❤
Please don't ever apologize for offering science education to a largely American audience.
For real
I am repeating myself from an earlier comment but next year get a calendar going.♨
That’s a great idea!
You have amazing rapport with wild animals.

They have merch on the bellowing acres website
No need for a gym membership Chris, when you have little dude running after you. Another wonderful video.
😂
Great vlog!❤️
Each luttle fox face was framed byv the wire sections. Did you do that on purpose or was it just luck and timing? It's super cute.
You beat me to saying it... about ice being less dense and floating being an insulating barrier and the reason life exists at all. Have you seen The Europa Project movie? The concept comes up.
Poor little turtle.
I could talk about ice for an hour 😂 I’ll have to being it out!
@GatorChris_ I'm usually like that about gravity, but I'm a rock nerd.
Wow lots of info in this video! From the ice, to the turtle anatomy…the cooters 😂
😂
Lil Dude said hold on dad I’m coming wait for me 😂
Love your shirt!! ❤❤

He's adorable.
As soon as poppy saw you petting somebody else, lol

Nice explanation of ice as insulating barrier preserving life.
I gave my hound mix I grew up with a middle name Cooter, from the funny (as a 6th grader) character in Dukes of Hazzard
it would be fun to do an online poll, "what is your favorite resident animalality?" I vote Poppy!
Poppy would get a lot of votes 😂
Me too!
As a chemistry teacher, I approve this message!
i adore your red foxes and i know you can't hold or pet them but could we get a cameo just with you and them kinda running around?
All are Roasty Toasty Warm ❤
Awww jellybean let you pet him so much!
That is a sad situation for the Turtle. Good Luck.
Little Dude makes our Native North American porcupines look so small.

😂cute funny stuff ❤
Calcium deficiency for the turtle ?
❤❤❤
If ya have a chance to get some bone broth, it will help make ya feel better, especially this time of year, warm it up and drink a couple cups during the day. Usually grocery stores have it. beef or chicken bone broth. I swear by over the counter zinc for nex ttime before going, swear by it! Great vid!
I love watching him chasing you lol, sorry Chris 😅
How is Gaston doing? You don't mention him that often so was wondering if he is still alive and trying to thrive.
He’s good, just the same
Sadly, elementary schools are a hotbed for sickness. I hope you feel better soon.
Turtles name needs to be floppy
Please add "https" before your link so it's click able. I'm talking about the description.
Hi Chris and Gabe.. so good feeding could help the turtle? Like more calcium in his feeding?.. talking about not healthy guys.. How is Gastone doing with the cold and the fact he cant go underwater? Are you heating up his water too?.. I probably missed that part in some videos.. thank you so much(and sorry for my english)..
Gaston is good!
I cried my eyes out watching this turtle guys....that was really hard to watch.
You can see him panting!! Oh, this😢... I've never seen a turtle breathing let alone breathing so hard....😢
I think that's the first time I've ever seen a porcupine technically jump
Do they ever do external fixation on turtle shells? Like to pull them out where they are supposed to be while they grow or harden?
Poor turtle!! That looks so uncomfortable! Also will his name be pancake?
He came with the name Larry, but that’s a good name too considering
Running a sanctuary it’s only going to get worse, you will see things you will think is the worst only to find out it gets worse. Poor animals 😢
Tag Spike 😂😂😂😂 your it
Way back in high school, one student in physics class asked what would happen if ice didn't float. The teacher replied grimly, "It would be the end of the world."
You might as well asked him what would happen if the moon were to disappear. 8)
I could talk about ice for an hour 😂
So can do spiders hurt those little birds.?
One option is to build a building of sorts with solar panels on it and lots of batteries in it to help with the electricity.
Methinks a certain porcupine just wants lots of attention!
Get the porcupine a companion.. little guy is probable lonely😢
So the turtle is 15 year old turtle and they thought “hey I think there’s something wrong with it now.” It’s been breathing like this its whole life. Sad.
How much for a cameo with Chris and Bella and Big Mac with Chris in his wetsuit with Gabby holding the camera.??
🤣🤣
People to collect art or artifact replicas of wild animals. Too much suffering in the animal kingdom ❤
Is Cheeky a male or female?
Female
😱😱😱😱😱🕷🕷🕸🕸🕸
lol
Pa-hin means porcupine in Sioux language.
I can only think that the only way the poor turtle is able to breathe is because the shell is soft. I think if it didn’t expand it would be worse or am I wrong??

Why, why do people not provide the proper environment and care for animals they possess? The turtle makes me so angry.
How do it
