Isn't it adorable? I always feel so bad because Jett looks sad to me.. I'm sure that is just his normal face, but I still think he looks sad. Haha. He looked so happy playing with Clovey, though. Clover deff brought out a different side of cutie Jett.
I can't believe how big the baby emus have gotten! I still remember all the videos of them following you around the sanctuary and making their little peep noise all the while. Sooo cute!
I Love that Clovey plays with Jett ❤❤❤..... So CUTE. And boy Akela is ADORABLE and ready to smash at all times!!!! Never trip and fall in her enclosure!!!
I get so much peace from your videos. I suffer from debilitating anxiety disorder and early mornings are the worst. I put on one of your vids and it helps me so much. I need your videos. Keep them coming you two are literally angels on earth. ❤
Crocs and gators are something else, the way they eat, heal and other things. It is always so much learning things from you Chris. Love the vlog as always
I saw on your story Chris that the vet was there and yall were doing that thing on Gaston I can't wait to find out what yall found and if you did find anything it can be fixed Fingers crossed everything went very smooth
The Crocodile scares me with how fast she is. I really love watching these updates with the animals! You have been truly expiring too me the last few years I have been watching.
So glad there are still some good people in this crazy world of ours and grateful to get to see these videos of the many wonderful animals at your sanctuary living their best life 🩵💚amazing work with Dino who for sure wouldn't be alive without all the hard work and dedication from everyone involved in his care. Well done guys😎
It's 4:30 in the morning and as usual I'm up but it's not for anything good. On August 19th, I lost my beloved fur son Peso, who was 15 years old. I had him since he was 11 weeks old! The heartbreak is something I sometimes can not bear. I've been watching your videos from beginning to end from start to finish, and I have to say watching your cutie Poppy warms my heart ,makes me smile. Chris, please give poppy an extra cuddle for me❤❤❤❤😢
So glad to see Dino out. Hope he eats his turkey leg. I can’t believe how fast Akila is. She’s like a streak of lightning. She’s just like her Mom, Blondie. I’ve heard Savannah talk about how alligators and crocodiles will eat all the time if food is available. They are amazing creatures. I know I shouldn’t laugh, but Pebbles is so funny pecking at the camera. Chris, I wish you could divert some of your rain to Knoxville TN. We are in a drought. You and Gabby have a fantastic weekend.
Gators are 4 legged vultures…they are good for the environment! Remind me of ancient Romans in so many ways, though I don’t think ate anything rotten, lol. I take that back…forgot about the fish sauce. All hail the gator empire.
That Emu (I think you called him Pebbles?) makes me think of a cat on it's back... wants to have their belly petted, but also wants to take your hand off if you to lol.
We have been discussing that a lot, but the issue seems to be the anxiety and anticipation before feeding and I don’t think it would solve that. Not sure. We talk about it a lot though, might end up trying it
Great follow-up Vlog Thank you it was very interesting to see it!!! Big Mac 🐊❤ Bella 🐊❤ Dino 🐊❤ and of Akila ❤ everyone looks so happy and healthy. So cute watching Jet ❤ and Clover ❤ play she's always so.gentle with hiim such a good girl Clover you!!! Summer❤ Echo ❤ Pebbles ❤enu time!!

Prairie Dogs so cute ❤ Hope you guys have a great weekend appreciate you Thanks again!!
Which Emu baby did you get 1st? I love their baby noises! I noticed the difference in the pigs since you started hand feeding. Julie is quieter, and Tuny doesn't want to kill you. Improvement and great at sitting! Lol😊
Akila is a monster. ❤ I love all the crocodilians! at the sanctuary, I have learned so much and really appreciate it. Any update on a fox playdate? Hazel hasn't been around the others for a while. I love Jet and Clover playdates. So cute! Echo is the oldest "baby' emu right?
@@suzanneavila2333there is a type of anemia that is called iron deficiency anemia which results in not enough production of healthy red blood cells xxx
I guess people are confused about gators 'needing' to eat because they equate them with us, with mammals, who have to maintain a set body temperature that requires a regular intake of fuel. Gators and other reptiles do not have a set body temperature that they have to maintain...their temperature is regulated by their surroundings (we used to call this 'cold-blooded', but now the term used is 'ectotherm').
Gator Chris, where'd ya get that pole? I see the shorter ones but can't find one long like that. We own a wildlife refuge, and it's super nice with all kinds of wildlife! I'd love to share some videos with you sometime.
My mom had something like those tongs too. She had a back injury, so grabbing something from the ground was difficult for her. So you might look for human grabbing aids too.
It is REALLY not about need, though? Because I'm assuming on some instinctual level they understand that while they don't "have to" eat for a while, if there's food around they should try to get it because it might be months before they see anything they can grab again, right?
Is there any possible way to train Julie to sit with her mouth open when she's ready for more food? That's always a possibility pigs are wicked smart. So she can't bite you? Also if you set up a trough for the little pigs and wet the grain rats will be less of an issue because they won't be able to carry it away just my new England grandfather's truck for his pigs. If it ever becomes an issue.
I think Timothy pulls the bowl because he wants it further from you Chris, to keep more distance due to being uncomfortable around people….is my going theory. It’s always pulled away from the camera…feel like it’s got something to do with this.
Having ataxia and walking like a drunk …I might be able to get away from a gator on land (doubt it) because of watching Akila there is no way I could escape a Crocodile the way I walk now. I would be Croc chow for sure. I think Sweet Big Mac was trying to savor his gross deer head/neck on land but sassy Bella stole it from him and dragged into the water again to let it tenderize. Do Alligators Death roll with the sane gusto as a crocodile? Big Mac and Bella would of faired better if one or the other held on and the other one Death rolled. I have seen Niles Crocs feast while in a float together, But I have never seen Alligators do it. I have an idea for an enrichment for the three amigos Pigs. Pigs like to rut around in the dirt looking for treasures to eat. That is why they are used in France to find wild truffles. Could t you dedicate an area of their enclosure for rooting around for yums you bury for them? It doesn’t have to be truffles, eeek they are expensive but here are some enrichment ideas Rooting areas: Build a wooden fenced in rooting area with large smooth stones, dirt, straw, or other pig-safe debris. Treat dispensers: Use a bottle, water bottle, oatmeal canister, or other container to make a homemade treat dispenser. Toys: Some pigs enjoy stuff animal toys, crinkly toys, squeaky toys, or infant toys that make sounds. Cardboard boxes: Pigs enjoy searching through cardboard boxes. Sandboxes: A sandbox is a great enrichment activity for pigs. Frozen swings: Fill a large bowl halfway with water and add a few pieces of fruit or vegetables. Scents: Pigs have a great sense of smell.
Omg gosh I can't believe you have to explain this to people. It's called common sense people. They will still attack you not because they need food, but to be predatory animals.
Ring around a log...a fox and a dog...runing here and over there...with knot a care!💜🐺🐕🦺
👏👏👏
I live seeing Clover and Jet play. She is so good with him. It's amazing!!❤❤
Love how Jet was trying to outsmart her hiding in the log 🪵
The prarie dog in the bowl haha fighting over the 🍌💛🤍🖤🤎🦜
Little white fox plays hide-and-seek with big dog. I love your videos.🐕💙🦊
Looks like Akila is getting bigger!
Yes I thought the same thing.
She most definitely is! Doesn't look like a baby anymore.👍🏼🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️🐊🐊🐊
I love Chris’ dynamic with pebbles! And seeing clover run around was too cute
The way Clovey and Jett play is awesome
They are good playmates and friends
Isn't it adorable? I always feel so bad because Jett looks sad to me.. I'm sure that is just his normal face, but I still think he looks sad. Haha. He looked so happy playing with Clovey, though. Clover deff brought out a different side of cutie Jett.

Such good news. Dino is coming to get food! Awesome !😊

Oooo my good the fox and the dog looks so beautiful playing together ❤❤❤❤❤

So funny, watching Jellybean eat. The way he picks up the food with the end of his beak and then just pops it in there 😃
I still love those prairie dogs! They filled my heart with cuteness! You guys are so lucky! I wish i could pet them, so cute!
I would love to see Clovey Asami and Jet all playing together ❤ 😊
I don't think it's a good idea to let the dogs at the little skunk!
Crocs and gators are something else, the way they eat, heal and other things. It is always so much learning things from you Chris. Love the vlog as always
So Much going On!! Awesome!!
Great video . Glad Dino is up and around.
Amazing how Akila got that into the right position.
Chris: "Of course Hazel is singing the song of her people in the background." 🤣😂

It's great that Dino is leaving the pond to explore his enclosure! 💚
The Crocodile scares me with how fast she is. I really love watching these updates with the animals! You have been truly expiring too me the last few years I have been watching.

Vlog time! Thank you! Always interesting; always informative.
Thanks for watching!
The emu just wants/needs you to know he is the boss and it's HIS flock or mob!!!! 😎😎😎

"He wants to fight, but he also wants to get pet."
The struggle is real

My bf says that about me wen im over tired n grumpy lolol xxx
Thank you for showing me _true*_ prosperity.

Pebbles needs a Liberty Mutual T-shirt, and a pair of shades 😎
😂
Pebbles may have pebbles for brains. 😉
Gabby: "People love the ASMR." pause "I'm people". 🤣😂 (we knew that)
Gators are 4 legged vultures…they are good for the environment! Remind me of ancient Romans in so many ways, though I don’t think ate anything rotten, lol. I take that back…forgot about the fish sauce. All hail the gator empire.
I chew ice all the time. I have one of the counter top makers and they make the foamy crunchy ice, I love it.
❤❤Poppy❤❤
That Emu (I think you called him Pebbles?) makes me think of a cat on it's back... wants to have their belly petted, but also wants to take your hand off if you to lol.
😂
They are tenderizing it.
Akila is sooooo fast!!
She’s quick!
If possible would love to see more time spent with croc monitor.
10:42 fox and the hound 🥺
Great episode! Thanks chris! Would the foxes benefit from eating in lockouts like the cuwatis? Maybe make it more calm during feedings?
We have been discussing that a lot, but the issue seems to be the anxiety and anticipation before feeding and I don’t think it would solve that. Not sure. We talk about it a lot though, might end up trying it

Dog playtime 😂😅❤
Hazel's climbing skills are 10/10. Do the foxes behave this way often, or is it only at feeding time?
Akila is a monster. ❤ I love all the crocodilians! at the sanctuary, I have learned so much and really appreciate it. Any update on a fox playdate? Hazel hasn't been around the others for a while. I love Jet and Clover playdates. So cute! Echo is the oldest "baby' emu right?
Hoof included! 😂😂 doesn’t that hurt? 😂😂
They don’t seem to mind 😂
Is Bella keeping Big Mac from the pond? Lol
Most people eat like that too😂
Echo is so derpy haha
All the emus are 😂😂😂
Akila is terrifying 😅
Yep!
Great video guys, I was wondering if the alligators become more aggressive towards you initially after eating the deer meat?
Nope no change
crocdile info the birds. ✨💯💯💯living Dino
"It's not chewing"... it's chomping :-)
Haha yep
The aftermath of the deer feeding:
Fertilizer!
Chris send some of your rain to se ohio we need it bad
Sorry to burst your bubble Chris but.... Chewing on ice is a vitamin deficiency. 💋💋💋🥰🥰🥰
A deficiency of which vitamin?
Symptom of low iron
It’s a sign of anemia
@@Kathleen-v3x It's not anemia... It's an iron deficiency. They are 2 different things
@@suzanneavila2333there is a type of anemia that is called iron deficiency anemia which results in not enough production of healthy red blood cells xxx

Gators and other reptiles do not have a set body temperature that they have to maintain...their temperature is regulated by their surroundings (we used to call this 'cold-blooded', but now the term used is 'ectotherm').
Then there's their drive to eat, which Chris explained in *gulp* detail!
Yep I think that’s where people get confused, thinking like a mammal
Has a crock or gator ever gotten so big or aggressive that you do not want to work with them?
Are you keeping the foster piggy's now? Or will they get homes elsewhere?
So alligators are just like labradors then 😂😂
Gator Chris, where'd ya get that pole? I see the shorter ones but can't find one long like that. We own a wildlife refuge, and it's super nice with all kinds of wildlife! I'd love to share some videos with you sometime.
You mean the tongs? I think we got them on Amazon, snake tongs
My mom had something like those tongs too. She had a back injury, so grabbing something from the ground was difficult for her. So you might look for human grabbing aids too.
Chris, do you still go down to the park you were working at on the weekends?
How was the poop on the lock??
Bella the bully!
Clover has a boyfriend!
Is the produce donated from a store or do y’all have to buy it
hi
It is REALLY not about need, though? Because I'm assuming on some instinctual level they understand that while they don't "have to" eat for a while, if there's food around they should try to get it because it might be months before they see anything they can grab again, right?
Can alligators and crocodile s smell?
Quick question: Is it more challenging to train a croc or gator?
Will Bella poop out any deer bones or does she digest the bone and hoof? I love seeing Clover and Jett interact.
The bones will be digested but hooves are keratin so they might pass through, have to wait and see!
Could Pepples be at the hormonal age to protect the girls? They are such unique birds!❤👍
Emu males sit on the floor hhs and raise the babies. Emu females are the ultimate women libbers! Lol😅
Are Emus mean by nature?
I wonder if clover and asami would play together?
How did they get the deer??
They found it on their way back from the town. It was a roadkill and the sherrifs office alowed them to take it.
Is there any reason why you don’t put plastic on the sides.. at least a foot or two down.. so it keeps them dry during rain
Is there something about the phone that intrigues the birds?
I have seen Pebbles tap the screen many times.
Even the smaller birds do this.
Is there any possible way to train Julie to sit with her mouth open when she's ready for more food? That's always a possibility pigs are wicked smart. So she can't bite you? Also if you set up a trough for the little pigs and wet the grain rats will be less of an issue because they won't be able to carry it away just my new England grandfather's truck for his pigs. If it ever becomes an issue.
Yes they bite hard 😂

Gabby! Stop being so serious. Nobody touches you but Chris.
Trust in his Catholic name.
6:23 so fast lol
I was about to comment on this. It's awesome and terrifying how fast Akila is!
