Yeah that was one of the reasons I didn’t like Arthur as a kid was that I knew what an aardvark looked like and that was no aardvark, so I felt cheated.

Was that aardvark trained to target that blue wand? I think it's really cool how we can train even non-domesticated species and a really good argument to people who refuse to humanely manage their pets.
+Martha Champagne: Oh yeah, "The Zoo" on Animal Planet (Bronx Zoo in NYC). I found that quite impressive as well. Animal Planet recently started showing another zoo documentary show that's also quite good, called "The Secret Life of the Zoo", about the Chester Zoo in England.
@@kennethsatria6607 Actually, recent studies are showing that we may have MASSIVELY underestimated croc intelligence in the part, but nothing conclusive yet.
How very cool. I haven't seen an aardvark like forever. Quite the snout! Glad the animals are getting to socialize. Thanks so much for sharing. I often envy your job.
I would love to see you guys do a video about how you use positive reinforcement with the zoo animals. It was interesting watching the handler have aardvark target the stick and get treats from that tube.
Apart from the missing scales, it looks quite similar to a pangolin, claws, snout, tounge and all. I would have assumed they are closer related than a cat and a walrus..
@Cliff Warden I've never "owned" a cat, but I have been owned by several! I only exist to serve their needs. The most recent kitty just showed up one day and claimed us. Weird because I live off-grid in wilderness, closest neighbors are more than a mile away and they hate cats. We think she came from a community 6 miles from here and was able to survive predators and crossing a highway to get here. She found the right place! We love her.
Christina no ur cat isn't related to a walrus! She used this to mean that house cats can be related to other animals whereas aardvark s genetically aren't related to other animals! Fun fact house cats share 95% of their DNA with tigers!
Southern Africa certainly has some interesting animals. There is the Aardvark (Earthpig) and then the Aardwolf (Earthwolf - Proteles crostata)) which is one of the four species of Hyena and yet its main diet is insects and mainly ants.
aardvarks eat cucumbers as well as ants they dig up a special kind of cucumber that grows underground and its the only thing they eat which isnt ants and termites
Was so excited to visit to meet Kuchimba, only to discover that he has since died! T_T And the zoo's on-staff veterinarians disagreed with an independent pathologist about the cause of death!
I would love a goat for a pet but not sure about an Aardvark. I love the way you considerately socialise animals that have mutually exclusive habitats in the in the wild.
If I could have any animal as a pet that isn’t a common pet it would be a goat. They are just adorable animals. I like the sounds they make and I know this sounds ridiculous but I like how they smell.
Andy Ward Your instincts are right on. Can't speak for all goats, but the breeds I've known are intelligent, very clever and entertaining. The females are delicate and curious, and only when they have been bred do they stink for a while. The males are also intelligent , but smell wretched, are good natured but can be very destructive, and they mark on their own legs. Some owners swear they intentionally urinate on their own beards.
The bootleg african ant-eater. However. The big mojority of african cultures love and adore this animals because of their determination when searching food. So. Get that anteater
Happy Resurrection day (Easter) 2022! These darling videos are timeless! I love watching the goats visit the other animals! Thank you, and God bless us all-and the critters, too!

Wait. Aardvarks can dig through rocks and concrete?! I clearly didnt give Arthur's punch enough credit. He should've _DEMOLISHED_ D.W.
But DW is also an aardvark so it cancels out
Item:Aardvark hide
100% Increased resistance to other aardvark attacks and older brothers
I thought Arthur was a bear this whole time lol

Didn't realize how big aardvarks were.

Aardvarks are the first word in the dictionary. Aardvarks eat ants. This concludes my knowledge of aardvarks.
And words

He looks like he couldn't care less about anything but that tube of food
Aardvarks are such interesting looking guys
Almost like the single-minded nerd eating from test tubes in the chem lab ;)
@@actsrv9 Now I'm picturing Cedric Sneer eating from the ant tube.
They look like they’re straight out of a fantasy graphic novel.
It's neat how dainty its walk is for such a big animal.
never use the word dainty again
That aardvark can strut
I always thought they were related to anteaters, but I looked it up and they're not. How weird! Convergent evolution is mind blowing.
Why is everything evolving into crabs?
Search TH-cam.
ravenzpeak you disgust me. anteaters are the spawn of satan
The aardvark walks around like a kid in their first pair of high heels!! 👠👡
great analogy. the workshop is now back open from the bombing
It's funny how Ruth looks intensely inquisitive about the Aardvark, & then she goes & hides behind her human friend! Thank you for sharing the adventures of the Tiny Goats 😄💓
Very interesting, and actually kinda graceful walking gate that the aardvark has.
When a new dog shows up at the dog park...
O.O I thought they were like the size of armadillos.
She was definitely "What is that!"I wish they would make more of these!!!🥰
An aardvark looks like a cross between a kangaroo, a pig, and an opossum.
And I'm seeing some armadillo in there too.😀
*Goats:* Oh lawd, he coming.
What the heck, I thought ardvarks were the size of a big bunny
Google "largest bunny" then
You're not thinking of armadillos, are you?
Cute at the end how the 2nd goat comes up to the handler for a hug after it sees the 1st goat get one :)
We have so many ants we could probably keep one of these well fed for some time:)
There are 16000 species of ants

i saw one zoo on tv that had trained their crocodiles to line up and space out for feeding time. it helped minimize injuries.

Thanks so much for sharing. I often envy your job.
I'm an Aardvark, and I'm proud
That was an uncomplicated pleasure to watch.
Goat: "You eat WHAAAT?"
That lovely Aardvark moves very gracefully, and with determination.......
I am gonna die! That little goat is just the cutest! I also love aardvarks . . . . for some reason I just can't fathom myself.
DreamDancer82: you sound perfectly nice and normal to me! But don't die, or you'll miss more of these cute animal vids.
These goats are getting a proper education and will meet more animals than I ever will lol

I used to love the Aardvark cartoon ... I love your videos
He walks like he's trying not to make too much noise
The Aardvark looks like it’s wearing little black fur boots
Love the way they all want to get up close and personal!
Too MUCH cuteness!
Apart from the missing scales, it looks quite similar to a pangolin, claws, snout, tounge and all. I would have assumed they are closer related than a cat and a walrus..
Aardvarks are closer to Elephants
I expected him to start talking in a Jackie Mason voice😂
He's so adorable.
My cat is related to the walrus?? That’s crazy! That does explain her lack of coordination though🤣🤣🤣
Very distantly

I’ve been to the oregon zoo multiple times and I have never seen an aardvark there
You, thir, are a king. Thir don't let them tell you any different, thir.
whoa i had no idea how big aardvark's get, I thought they were rabbit sized! they're huge!
you are stupid. h owned
1:51 That goat is all like, "What the hell am I looking at here?"
My goats always smack the sh*t out of every other animal we have lol. Chickens, pigs, cows, dogs, cats... no one’s safe! 😂
So cute!
Brianne has a really smiley face like a permanent smile emoji it's such a joy she even smiles through talking lol.
*booping the aardvark snoot intensifies*
The first goat that sees the aardvark: "Let me go. I need to jump on that. "
Brianne is so lovely, those animals are so lucky!
He’s beautiful! I love aardvarks!
I love the ant eater name.
😂😂😂Now I'm obsessed with watching Ruth & Sonia after the first porcupine one I just saw😁😍
😂😂😂Now I'm obsessed with watching Ruth & Sonia after the first porcupine one I just saw😁😍
the world could use more aardvarks, they're cute and they eat ants, what's not to love?
yep i agree . plus there so beautiful to look at ..
i love these videos! thank you for posting them!

Aarvarks are so weird animals. They are basically living fossils and the last survivors of their kind. Pretty much an interesting animal.
aardvarks eat cucumbers as well as ants they dig up a special kind of cucumber that grows underground and its the only thing they eat which isnt ants and termites
Thank you ladies you have a nice job!!!working with animals much better than with people
Thank you for the video! Its nice to see animals explore and be taken care of so well.
The goats 🐐 think that's the weirdest goat they've ever seen 😳.
So basically the goats have the same reaction with every animal they meet.
I like when Sonya gives you a punch like she's saying "Hey! Me too!"
Aww so cute, love your channel. Hi to Ruth and Sonja

I think the aardvark sort of looks like a super-sized armadillo without the shell.

The goats never came within 15' of that aardvark. They were clearly terrified of it.
I call it a success, too. A great success!
Let the little goats meet some nice tigers aw such djungle book omg
Wait, I thought Aardvarks were always blue and constantly chasing ants called Charlie... there goes my worldview.
I love this series.
ah the African sniffing pig, one of my favorites
Real video title: Goats observe aardvark from a distance.
Aardvarks and Anteaters are so cool to me
Dunno, my cat seems pretty closely related to a walrus...
Doin' the snuffle shuffle.
absolutly loving that ardvark.. Hes brilliant.
The Goats were a bit scared it seems lol
So thats what Arthur Reed looks like
Holy shit! Nugs are REAL!
Oh hey Arthur!
It's Sniffles 🤕
Love these little guys. Funny to see them interact if only on video.
He was very shy with the goats. Maybe he was scared.
I used to love watching the Ant and the Aardvark.
The goat is like "what the.. " But the Aardvark is really cool, a real life Pokemon
MAN THIS CAT DO'NT GET IT. I LOVED THAT CARTOON.
Pretty adorable:) Love the video💕❤️
Goats and aardvark ignore each other entirely. Almost comically so.
Then the lady acts like they might have noticed each other because she has to make the video for the interwebs.
Aardvarks didn’t put too many points into their cranial capacity spec did they
Doesn't take much to outsmart an ant
@@williamchamberlain2263
Everything else related to them is dead. Go figure.
Super videos! I Always recommend to biopark here in Rome to do these interspecies visits. That break the monotono of many individuals that are the worst enemy in captivity
This is the Arthur reboot I've been waiting for.
aardvark is so handsome...ruth stays behind mom.
One of these went for me once, but I was okay because Aardvark never hurt anybody...
