Yes, an entire episode about human zoos would be great. I'm an inuk (Canadian Inuit.) There's a book at my parents' house about the story of an Inuit family being taken and put into a human zoo. I think it's the story of Abraham Ulrikab, but I'd have to look at the book again to be sure 😔
It's like every time you think it won't get worse in this episode... it did. Last human zoo closes in 2000. Love how often people think "we're so much better these days, we've come so far" and hear about this kinda thing.
@@darthprodigal9401 I mean we have gotten better in many areas, but it’s still bad. Knowing that we’ve progressed but still are this bad just shows how bad we were to begin with
@@darthprodigal9401 it's a bizarre spectrum the technological advances we have made in a meer 100 years is astounding and impressive revolutionary and in so many ways, medical science, animal welfare, quality of life , equality ... Yet so much more to learn and do better
I loved zoo tycoon as a kid too! Now I’m a wildlife conservationist! If you ever want some help figuring out which zoos actually take care of their animals, find out if they are Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) Accredited. The Accreditation process is extremely thorough and holds zoos to the highest standard of animal welfare, conservation, and education with continued inspections. There’s a reason why your local elephant sanctuary is not AZA accredited but a zoo like the San Diego Zoo is. And I agree some captive breeding programs have not been successful, but here’s a list of some that have been if you’re interested in learning more: black footed ferrets, California condors, peregrine falcons, and golden lion tamarins. ❤
Thank you for giving this information. People need to know that it's not just about holding animals captive for entertainment. Now, if all the zoos could just get accredited...
I was surprised Bailey hadn't mentioned the AZA. The only zoo I go to is AZA accredited, so it's nice to know that they care about the animals and all that. Thank you for your comment :)
The Omaha zoo in Nebraska the animals are very happy there do they have a high rating? The blank Park zoo in Des Moines years ago didn't seem to be that great but recently in the last 10 years they've done a lot to improve. But I always feel bad for the birds.... They look so sad
Zookeeper here! I wanted to assure that conservation education and animal welfare truly are the top priorities of accredited zoos in the US. Zookeepers put their blood sweat and tears into providing the best care possible for their animals. Many of us aren’t paid a liveable wage - we don’t do it for the money but because it’s our passion. Often zoos work closely with conservation programs in the wild and some animal species now have sustainable wild populations thanks to zoos such as with the California Condors and Bald Eagles! Like many scientific fields, practices of the past were horrible and we are always learning from our mistakes. That’s why it’s important to do your research and support accredited zoos where the animals are the priority.
Are these animals being rehabilitated? What are the size of the enclosures ? I think that’s more of the point. I understand rescue situations, but why can’t animals be rehabilitated instead of confining them ? Zoos profit off of animals solely for people to view and for their entertainment.
@@jessienicol33 in some situations rehabilitation and release is not possible. In many cases, animals that are in zoos are there because they have been severely injured or orphaned in the wild and would otherwise not survive on their own if released. It’s also not fair to try to release adult animals when they have lived in captivity all their lives and don’t have the skills to live in the wild. It’s not simply releasing them, there are many factors to consider. Zoo animals associate people with providing food, enrichment, socialization. If you release them even with rehabilitation they will continue to seek out human interaction and will be more susceptible to poaching. People also have to remember that the “wild” isn’t truly wild anymore. Humanity has ventured to every possible area on earth and wild spaces are much smaller than people realize with very limited recourses. Zoos are working on improving their enclosure spaces. Gone are the days of jail-like cells and solid concrete enclosures. Now we know how much space certain species truly need and they are trying to make them as natural as possible so they have avenues to have natural behaviors. New enclosures are sometimes several acres large!
For example, the Oakland zoo in California is restocking the Sue Indian nation with bison every year, sending them I think it's like half of the babies that are born to re-introduced them into the wild because they're basically extinct over there. Oakland zoo also has a California condor program where they save so many of their lives because they're all being poisoned by eating contaminated carcasses. These accredited zoos are saving animals and species! They're so important everyone should all donate money to them and visit them regularly
Also wanted to add that the word “entertainment” keeps being thrown around when in reality that is not the case for accredited zoos. Accredited zoos are first and foremost educational. Studies have shown that people care more about animals when the actual animal is present as opposed to seeing pictures in a textbook. Seeing animals in person scientifically makes people more willing to learn about them and most importantly learn the importance of protecting them. For example, someone might tell you to put stickers on your window to prevent bird strike, but until you see the beautiful birds that it impacts the most you might not think it’s actually that important. People also don’t have opportunities to see animals in the wild unless they are very wealthy. Zoos make seeing those amazing animals accessible to everyone. If someone has never heard of a rhino or seen it why should they care if it goes extinct if it doesn’t directly impact them? All in all I wanted to remind everyone that we are on opposite sides of the same coin. We all want to see all these animals free in the wild and protected no matter if you are pro or anti zoo. Unfortunately that’s just not possible right now. Until that day arrives, accredited zoos will continue providing excellent care to their animals, supporting conservation efforts, and educating the public on why animals are so important.
I used to have an indoor cat named Artemis. She was my little goddess... She broke out of our house so she could explore the wider world. I searched for her day after day after day until I finally gave up. I missed her so much that I thought I was going to have a full on nervous breakdown. After all, she'd been an indoor cat her entire life. She wasn't spayed and there were tons of feral cats roaming the streets. And, just a quick fyi, we're talking about feral cats in Detroit...so, not a safe place for a tame indoor cat to go roaming around in. Add to that the fact that we lived a block away from 2 high traffic roads (the house was on a corner) where people drove like they were trying to break the land speed record, and you can understand why I thought I'd never see her again. But then...a miracle. About a month after she snuck out of the house, I was out on the porch, putting little piles of dry cat food out for the weaker strays and, suddenly, there she was, 2 feet away from me, I couldn't believe my eyes. It was kind of funny because we did the whole romcom reunion thing, I said, "Artemis, is that really you?" and she meowed at me as if to say, "K, is that you?" I grabbed her and made a bee line to the bathroom where my husband was just minding his own business, trying to use the facilities. I literally kicked the door open and he looked super, uber peeved at me until he saw Artemis...lol She survived on the streets of Detroit without getting hit by a car, receiving a single injury or getting pregnant. I think that's pretty dang impressive...
I had the opportunity to work as a vet technician at a zoo and wildlife rehabilitation center and it was pretty amazing how passionate everyone was there to help keep these animals engaged, happy, and healthy. It was always wonderful when they had babies. They had the utmost respect for when they would pass away too. They had a zoo cemetery and really honored these animals ❤
I worked at my local wildlife conservation zoo and it’s the only zoo that I personally know of, have been to and can confirm that it truly cares about the animals they care for and preserving their species in the wild. Some species only exist within zoos because they’ve been hunted into extinction in the wild and we had a few of these and the keepers put as much care and attention to detail as possible into making sure every need was met. Fun and entertainment included through what they called enrichment (activities meant to stimulate their natural instincts)
👏👏🩷🩷👏👏 Yes! See.. in MY OPINION, SO NOBODY COME FOR ME... There's a HUGE difference between the type of place you're speaking of.. and a "zoo". I do NOT like zoos!

If it were strictly to preserve the species, it wouldn't be a zoo. It would be a rehabilitation center. Zoos are unethical and evil no matter what and should be abolished.
I kinda wish the AZA accredited zoos versus road side zoos was a topic that was touched on. Another side note. I remember reading an article during 2020 that talked about how a lot of animals were becoming depressed because they didn't have people to interact with anymore. Social enrichment is huge for a lot of these animals. Of course they wouldn't need that enrichment if we left them where they belong in the first place buuut here we are 🙃 I love zoos personally as long as they have the AZA accreditation.
100% agree! Zoos and accredited zoos are two completely different things they're just night and day difference! Also there's plenty of animals that can't be left alone in the wild because there is no wild left. I mean Russia China and Africa have just completely destroyed the habitats or hunted them literally to extinction. It's crazy! I hope they all do it India did which was whatever it took to clear a huge swath of land for their tigers who came back from the brink of extinction by just moving humans out of a large territory for them. A beautiful national reserve! India is my hero lol
An episode on animal testing would be great. popular make up products like mac and nars are tested on animals, Aveeno is tested on animals, designers like tom Ford, dior, chanel tests their perfumes and beauty products on animals. Johnson and Johnson still does it even though they said they don't. This would open up alot of eyes. I always check for the cruelty free label.
hi bailey, i just wanted you to know that you impact lives!!! my mother was terminal and loved to watch your videos to ease her. she passed away on the 23rd.
You never disappoint Bailey! I would love to see a dark history on the origins of vampires, werewolves, mermaids, etc! I’ve been reading Dracula and went down a rabbit hole of the origins of vampirism and such. Got me thinking that I’d love to see something about that from you!
Zoos are important for conservation programs, raising awareness of environmental issues that the public can help with and raising money. If a zoo isn't doing those things it's just a prison.
it’s still a prison either way read research papers about the species survival program in zoos it is not effective for genetic conservation it is almost entirely for profit at the expense of the animals
I’ve read some books that had some history of the freak shows they used to put on for the public. Interesting but also heartbreaking in many cases. I think an episode would be amazing!
You should have discussed Seaworld and all of that as well. Not only were the whales and dolphins hurt in the process but some trainers were actually injured and even died. Definitely worth a discussion. Keep it up Bailey! Love you girl! I don’t miss an episode. Mondays and Thursdays are my favorite days of the week!
this topic is always so conflicting for me 😢 cause i wish animals could be left alone in the wild but i also fear that some species could be poached or hunted into extinction. especially with all of the pollution and loss of habitat.... its so sad😭😭
A true sadness. Take even just the Great Barrier Reef. It wont be here when our children our adults. We have lost a MASSIVE percentage of it in just the last couple of years. MASSIVE. It truly breaks my heart. Animals being poached in such huge numbers feels like a battle we can never win. But it also makes me want to fight harder than ever. I want to be involved. The scary thought is, the number of lives poachers take could and often do outnumber those we save. HABITAT LOSS AND POACHING ARE THE GREATEST OFFENDERS OF ALL. And pollution. Ugh i can't it breaks my heart so bad.
Zoos are so important for the preservation of our endangered species. Please make sure if you visit a Zoo or Aquarium that they are accredited because they get audited constantly for the welfare of the animals.
Just driving down the street in new york and see a peacock stroll by... that'd be crazy. Gotta assume you're on hidden camera or someone was filming a movie.
Lol there is a petting zoo nearby where i live and years ago when i was like 8-10 years old or somth (cant really remember ) a Peacock broke out and just chilled in our neighborhood. I was going to meet with my bestie but she was late so i wondered what was going on. Turned out the Peacock was in her front yard and she was terrified of it 😅 her parents werent home and she called to my house to ask my parents for help😂 i thought it was kind of funny
I havent listened yet, but as someone who worked at an aquarium, i want to say all the accredited zoos and aquariums are there to protect animals that have been deemed non releasablr by the governemt for reasons like injury, illness, abandoment, etc. Theyre open to the public to be viewed as ambassadors for their species and hopefully get humans to care about our impact on the world and all we can do to help. But dont forget the key word i said earlier...ACCREDITED
100%! And those accredited places need money because these animals are expensive, also here in the San Francisco Bay area where I live they put a lot of the money that they raise towards their sister and brother animals in the wild, who are being hunted to extinction out there so you know them not being in zoos is going to lead to them being wiped out. So I highly suggest people go to accredited
Hello! Just wanted to toss it in here that there is an accreditation program in place called AZA (association of zoos & aquariums) which includes a lengthy and extensive evaluation of a zoo and aquarium by recognized experts. The organization is only accredited when it meets the established standards and best practices. Also, you have to take into consideration that we don’t only need to conserve and protect these animals for our own education but also for the preservation of the earth and it’s ecosystems. Unfortunately it takes human intervention to fix human intervention! Yes there is absolutely some unethical zoo’s out there, but there are also some amazing and crucial ones too! Just check for the AZA accreditation before you visit 😊
Someone needs to start doing tutorials for Bailey's hair in these videos because I am always so obsessed with the hairstyle, but don't even know how to look up a tutorial for it. Like, just look at 90s hair tutorials until something like this shows up? Lizzie McGuire hair? Please!
I really want to believe that the San Diego Zoo is doing their best now.. and the rhino program is in the Safari park , so at least they are in open space and not small enclosures.. and several years ago they redid the elephant enclosure so they have a lot more room.. and SD is non profit.. so I’d like to think as far as zoos go, they are one of the better ones.
I saw Gus and Ida in 2009 when we were visiting New York. Tbh they both looked really sad then and from what I remember the enclosure wasn’t the biggest or the most well kept either.
Ooof, this one was hard to get through. I hope one day all of society understands that animal cruelty is wrong. Sadly, there is still a long way to go.
Love this I use to volunteer at a wildlife refuge, we had animals that couldn't go back in the wild cause they were people's pets and the cruel things people do to them. I could tell you many dark stories about it.
I grew up going to the Memphis zoo. I remember when we first got our pandas Yaya and Lele. Yaya passed away a few weeks ago and Lele was shipped back to China 2 weeks ago. Both pandas lived well beyond the usual life expectancy of a panda. Memphis zoo did a fantastic job caring for them, the baby they had, and regularly sending them to China for check ups.
I highly recommend that if you decide to check out a zoo, make sure it is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (they have a list of all accredited zoos online)! Its basically a third party that reviews zoo policies, animal care, conservation efforts, etc. to ensure that animals are treated well and used as a means for education :)
When I lived in Bend, Oregon there was a city close to Bend that had a dead stuffed polar bear in a glass cage at a gas station. It was really sad to see.
"Despite all my rage, I'm still just a rat in a cage" Smashing Pumpkins 'Bullet With Butterfly Wings' I think that fits perfectly. A video on human zoons though? That would be very interesting. I can't believe there was one still around recently!
I love your stories so much... apart from learning so much about things I would have never thought happend... the way you tell them is the best!!! I dont even care if you tell me "buckle up girl" for a story 😂 , this is the best!! 😊
Hello Bailey! I love you work! Thank you! I don’t typically ever want go to zoos or circus’s because I could tell those poor animals were not happy or healthy! I thank you!
Ohhhhhh I have been absolutely HOPING you would do one on this! Can't wait to watch!! Sending all of my love from New Zealand. I only found you about 6 weeks ago and I have now watched ALL and I mean ALL of your videos! Obsessed some may say. You also have more followers than we have people in our country. NUTS huh. Adore you so very much. ❤❤❤
Listened to this DH while making dinner one night. A week later visited the local zoo, saw a bear pacing and acting odd and the boyfriend says "he has zoocosis like she said!" You reach millions girl we all learnin ❤❤
Yes, please do an episode on human zoo's, I cannot believe it went on into the 1930's and there was a person who experienced it and able to share it. I am so intrigued, I want to know more Bailey, I feel I have only ever been able to touch the tip of the iceberg when it comes to human Zoo's. I hope this becomes an episode influenced by your watchers and fans!
I remember when my mom tried to take me to the zoo in 1963 ... I told her I thought zoos were horrible and refused to go. I couldn't help feeling terribly depressed seeing how sad their eyes looked.
Oh you should see the zoos now, the accredited ones which are mostly what's out there nowadays. It's truly amazing! And animals in the wild Don't look so they don't look like anything because they're dead. They're completely wiped out and hunted to extinction… I don't know how to get some sort of international reserves with animals can be safe on another countries but that's what we gotta focus on
I cant speak for other zoos but the keepers at the buffalo zoo definitely went above and beyond to care for their animals. Thats from me learning from them myselves.
hii! i dont usually comment but if you see this, hi. i just wanted to say that i watch your videos every morning to get ready. gotta hear that history goss to start the day
@@darthprodigal9401 no google human zoos so much worse than prisons. Actual native people on show at Zoos and shows for entertainment value. Absolutely disgusting
Was having a bad week, I definitely needed this. In Oklahoma we have a Bison lookout it's not enclosed you just walk right up and look at them. It's beautiful ❤I really do appreciate her hard work
I really do appreciate the work and passion you put into your content. It translates into your videos so clearly it’s amazing. Thank you for brightening my day with your content :)
Yes let's take a moment to appreciate Bailey's look and Joan's !!! Just starting the episode but your hair, makeup and clothes are on point, I can already tell..... Least we forget little Joan, We can tell some thought went into her look....yay ladies !!!
I definitely watch an episode about human zoos, but then again, I watch pretty much any episode anyways lol I always love seeing the topic you pick for the week❤
Yay . Now I can watch on here and even tho I listen yesterday on DH podcast . Love this series because it’s so much more educational then anything I learned in school . Thanks Bailey . Hope you are having a wonderful day & staying safe and well 💕🫶🏼
you know what is SO WILD??? i LITERALLY was thinking of commenting on the last dark history that you should look into the history of zoos and / or aquariums. great minds. great minds. ❤️❤️
I can not tell you how absolutely terrible today has been. I forgot that it was Thursday, until your notification popped up. It made my shitastic day a lot better. Thank you for always being there for us xo

You never disappoint Bailey! I would love to see a dark history on the origins of vampires, werewolves, mermaids, etc! I’ve been reading Dracula and went down a rabbit hole of the origins of vampirism and such. Got me thinking that I’d love to see something about that from you!
Zoos are important for conservation programs, raising awareness of environmental issues that the public can help with and raising money. If a zoo isn't doing those things it's just a prison.
it’s still a prison either way read research papers about the species survival program in zoos it is not effective for genetic conservation it is almost entirely for profit at the expense of the animals
Would be interesting to see a dark history episode on human zoo’s or freak shows!
I’ve read some books that had some history of the freak shows they used to put on for the public. Interesting but also heartbreaking in many cases. I think an episode would be amazing!
You should have discussed Seaworld and all of that as well. Not only were the whales and dolphins hurt in the process but some trainers were actually injured and even died. Definitely worth a discussion. Keep it up Bailey! Love you girl! I don’t miss an episode. Mondays and Thursdays are my favorite days of the week!
this topic is always so conflicting for me 😢 cause i wish animals could be left alone in the wild but i also fear that some species could be poached or hunted into extinction. especially with all of the pollution and loss of habitat.... its so sad😭😭
It’s not just “could be poached”, for many they actively are being poached.
A true sadness. Take even just the Great Barrier Reef. It wont be here when our children our adults. We have lost a MASSIVE percentage of it in just the last couple of years. MASSIVE. It truly breaks my heart. Animals being poached in such huge numbers feels like a battle we can never win. But it also makes me want to fight harder than ever. I want to be involved. The scary thought is, the number of lives poachers take could and often do outnumber those we save. HABITAT LOSS AND POACHING ARE THE GREATEST OFFENDERS OF ALL. And pollution. Ugh i can't it breaks my heart so bad.
Yes, a story about human zoos on Dark History would be great.
I have been waiting for you to dive into the monstrosity of zoos. This needs to be talked about MUCH more often.
Zoos are so important for the preservation of our endangered species. Please make sure if you visit a Zoo or Aquarium that they are accredited because they get audited constantly for the welfare of the animals.
Go Bailey, please do a whole episode tackling about human zoos. I didn't know that such things exist.
Bailey - a peacock legit escaped from the Bronx zoo in the middle of the night. The timing is hilarious.
as she SHOULD!
Fr free Raul 🦚
Just driving down the street in new york and see a peacock stroll by... that'd be crazy. Gotta assume you're on hidden camera or someone was filming a movie.
LOL! It attacked someone too🤣
Lol there is a petting zoo nearby where i live and years ago when i was like 8-10 years old or somth (cant really remember ) a Peacock broke out and just chilled in our neighborhood. I was going to meet with my bestie but she was late so i wondered what was going on. Turned out the Peacock was in her front yard and she was terrified of it 😅 her parents werent home and she called to my house to ask my parents for help😂 i thought it was kind of funny
I havent listened yet, but as someone who worked at an aquarium, i want to say all the accredited zoos and aquariums are there to protect animals that have been deemed non releasablr by the governemt for reasons like injury, illness, abandoment, etc. Theyre open to the public to be viewed as ambassadors for their species and hopefully get humans to care about our impact on the world and all we can do to help. But dont forget the key word i said earlier...ACCREDITED
100%! And those accredited places need money because these animals are expensive, also here in the San Francisco Bay area where I live they put a lot of the money that they raise towards their sister and brother animals in the wild, who are being hunted to extinction out there so you know them not being in zoos is going to lead to them being wiped out. So I highly suggest people go to accredited
Hello! Just wanted to toss it in here that there is an accreditation program in place called AZA (association of zoos & aquariums) which includes a lengthy and extensive evaluation of a zoo and aquarium by recognized experts. The organization is only accredited when it meets the established standards and best practices. Also, you have to take into consideration that we don’t only need to conserve and protect these animals for our own education but also for the preservation of the earth and it’s ecosystems. Unfortunately it takes human intervention to fix human intervention! Yes there is absolutely some unethical zoo’s out there, but there are also some amazing and crucial ones too! Just check for the AZA accreditation before you visit 😊
The sound of seals you were trying to do sounded more like the sound of a sea lion. Both animals are adorable!
Someone needs to start doing tutorials for Bailey's hair in these videos because I am always so obsessed with the hairstyle, but don't even know how to look up a tutorial for it. Like, just look at 90s hair tutorials until something like this shows up? Lizzie McGuire hair? Please!
Yeah, her hair is exceptional! Overall, she’s just glowing today ☺️
She uses extensions. I remember her mentioning she doesn't like showing the back of her head cause she can't see how her extensions look back there
Joan is really getting creative with her costumes. You did a great job on this topic…as usual, and I would love to see one on human zoos.🖤🇨🇦
Lol
I used to only watch MMM but I’ve now started bingeing dark history and it’s my new fave podcast!! Thank you Bailey! ❤😊
I really want to believe that the San Diego Zoo is doing their best now.. and the rhino program is in the Safari park , so at least they are in open space and not small enclosures.. and several years ago they redid the elephant enclosure so they have a lot more room.. and SD is non profit.. so I’d like to think as far as zoos go, they are one of the better ones.
Accredited AZA zoos are best. They actually take care of the animals.
I saw Gus and Ida in 2009 when we were visiting New York. Tbh they both looked really sad then and from what I remember the enclosure wasn’t the biggest or the most well kept either.
little did you know that was already his 2nd wife and a tragic fate awaited them both...
Thanks! I love dark history. You tell me things i don't want to know, but need to.
Ugh! I loved Zoo Tycoon!!! I ended up becoming a zookeeper because of that game and because I’m obsessed with wildlife & conservation. ❤
Yes! Please do a whole episode human zoos!
Ooof, this one was hard to get through. I hope one day all of society understands that animal cruelty is wrong. Sadly, there is still a long way to go.
Love this I use to volunteer at a wildlife refuge, we had animals that couldn't go back in the wild cause they were people's pets and the cruel things people do to them. I could tell you many dark stories about it.
Dark HIstories perhaps?
I grew up going to the Memphis zoo. I remember when we first got our pandas Yaya and Lele. Yaya passed away a few weeks ago and Lele was shipped back to China 2 weeks ago. Both pandas lived well beyond the usual life expectancy of a panda. Memphis zoo did a fantastic job caring for them, the baby they had, and regularly sending them to China for check ups.
I highly recommend that if you decide to check out a zoo, make sure it is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (they have a list of all accredited zoos online)! Its basically a third party that reviews zoo policies, animal care, conservation efforts, etc. to ensure that animals are treated well and used as a means for education :)
One of my favorite historians! ❤️ I saw a poor polar bear pace back & forth at the Amsterdam zoo. It changed my beliefs about zoos on the spot.
I have no idea how people can support zoos. I have never visited one as an adult, I just never understood if it was truly ethical.
When I lived in Bend, Oregon there was a city close to Bend that had a dead stuffed polar bear in a glass cage at a gas station. It was really sad to see.
"Despite all my rage, I'm still just a rat in a cage" Smashing Pumpkins 'Bullet With Butterfly Wings' I think that fits perfectly. A video on human zoons though? That would be very interesting. I can't believe there was one still around recently!
And kudos, Bailey. I love the BAPS hair style ❤
I agree with comments saying full episode of sea world!! Love this series!!
Loving you from REHAB!! So stoked you released your video when I got my cell for 1 hour today!
Love you Bailey!!!
I am kinda shocked you didn't mention the giraffe scandal in Copenhagen Zoo back in 2014
Also, Joan, I love your outfits, keep doing you boo
I know! I was thinking that the whole time 😭
The seal noises 😂🤣 I loved this episode!! We definitely need a full episode on human zoos!?! Love you bailey 🫶🏼✨ Joan looks great 💗
I love your stories so much... apart from learning so much about things I would have never thought happend... the way you tell them is the best!!! I dont even care if you tell me "buckle up girl" for a story 😂 , this is the best!! 😊
Hello Bailey! I love you work! Thank you! I don’t typically ever want go to zoos or circus’s because I could tell those poor animals were not happy or healthy! I thank you!
Bailey is like all of our older sister telling us all the tea 🎉
@Jim excuse me?
This look is absolutely EVERYTHING! ❤
dark history of human zoos is a MUST!
please Bailey
I thought life was horrible already ,and this just intensified my depression.
Yeah, people really are the worst thing to happen to this planet
What made you think this video would be a happy one 😅
Yes - this is so sad!!😢
I know, im not sure I can finish it 😫💔
Ohhhhhh I have been absolutely HOPING you would do one on this! Can't wait to watch!! Sending all of my love from New Zealand. I only found you about 6 weeks ago and I have now watched ALL and I mean ALL of your videos! Obsessed some may say. You also have more followers than we have people in our country. NUTS huh. Adore you so very much. ❤❤❤
Bailey is the queen of f*cking around and finding out. I love that your job is researching your interests and sharing your findings!
Listened to this DH while making dinner one night. A week later visited the local zoo, saw a bear pacing and acting odd and the boyfriend says "he has zoocosis like she said!" You reach millions girl we all learnin ❤❤
Sick at home. A rainy day. Thank you, Bailey Sarian!!! Excellent timing. 😘
Very Elvira vibes this go round and love it, and always appreciate learning with you 💞
Bailey!
You look so freaking fabulous in this video. Also this is one of my new fave videos of yours
@48:51 Bailey: “Could you imagine an alligator 🐊 just coming up to your house?”
*Me, being a native Floridian that has happened to* “Yes.” 😂
I had frozen at the walrus part with fruit in my mouth, and at "mama can you hear meeee??" I laughed and choked
Yes, please! I would love to see a Dark History on Human Zoos!
I would love to hear more about human zoos. I love your Dark History and was already addicted to your M M M episodes. Keep up the awesome work.
Yes, please do an episode on human zoo's, I cannot believe it went on into the 1930's and there was a person who experienced it and able to share it. I am so intrigued, I want to know more Bailey, I feel I have only ever been able to touch the tip of the iceberg when it comes to human Zoo's. I hope this becomes an episode influenced by your watchers and fans!
👆👆🎁🎁🎁...messᥲgᥱ mᥱ ᥆ᥒ 𝗍ᥱᥣᥱgrᥲm...
I remember when my mom tried to take me to the zoo in 1963 ... I told her I thought zoos were horrible and refused to go. I couldn't help feeling terribly depressed seeing how sad their eyes looked.
How did you know it was sad before going?
Oh you should see the zoos now, the accredited ones which are mostly what's out there nowadays. It's truly amazing! And animals in the wild Don't look so they don't look like anything because they're dead. They're completely wiped out and hunted to extinction… I don't know how to get some sort of international reserves with animals can be safe on another countries but that's what we gotta focus on
I cant speak for other zoos but the keepers at the buffalo zoo definitely went above and beyond to care for their animals. Thats from me learning from them myselves.
I love your look in this one 😍💕
Thank you for covering this I wish people would not support zoos and go to sanctuaries instead. 😢
Definitely want that human zoo episode!!
hii! i dont usually comment but if you see this, hi. i just wanted to say that i watch your videos every morning to get ready. gotta hear that history goss to start the day
Yes to human zoos on dark history! Love the outfits on you and Joan today girlll.❤❤ from Alaska
Wait. I wanna know more about this human zoo that was going on in the 2000s???? What?!?! YES. Please do a whole episode on that
This was another great History story, I would like to know more about these human zoos
same Bailey, same. What's an eight cent blowie in comparison to seeing that precious, angelic face?🥺
WE NEED A HUMAN ZOO EPISODE
so... prisons?
@@darthprodigal9401 no google human zoos so much worse than prisons. Actual native people on show at Zoos and shows for entertainment value. Absolutely disgusting
Thanks for sharing! Sending love and light beautiful 🙏
Just hearing your intro music relaxes me - thank you so much!
Was having a bad week, I definitely needed this. In Oklahoma we have a Bison lookout it's not enclosed you just walk right up and look at them. It's beautiful ❤I really do appreciate her hard work
Woolarac?
I really do appreciate the work and passion you put into your content. It translates into your videos so clearly it’s amazing. Thank you for brightening my day with your content :)
Yes let's take a moment to appreciate Bailey's look and Joan's !!!
Just starting the episode but your hair, makeup and clothes are on point, I can already tell.....
Least we forget little Joan, We can tell some thought went into her look....yay ladies !!!
I definitely watch an episode about human zoos, but then again, I watch pretty much any episode anyways lol I always love seeing the topic you pick for the week❤
To aliens is Earth just a "human zoo"?
When you mentioned sanctuaries I was fully expecting Joe Exotic and Carole Baskin to enter the story 😅
Who else was worried that the walrus pups were going to fall off the back of the couch? Anyway, I love your videos, Bailey! 🖤
yess, PLEASE do a full episode on human zoos!
Episode idea!! One where you bring us all the “micro” story mentions… like Aldi and horse meat?! Just the one that aren’t ideal for a full episode.
Bailey we love youuuu
Yay . Now I can watch on here and even tho I listen yesterday on DH podcast .
Love this series because it’s so much more educational then anything I learned in school .
Thanks Bailey . Hope you are having a wonderful day & staying safe and well 💕🫶🏼
