grow a pair 😒 animals have been used since the dawn of dawn🤦🏿♂️ if your ancestors didn’t use animals and bugs for medicinal purposes you wouldn’t be alive today to bich about it😒😒
same with Australia and what people think about our wildlife. It's not like you walk out your house and see dangerous creatures right in front of you, it's pretty rare unless you're going into their habitat. Everything is just so exaggerated by media it makes people generalise a whole ass country.
Oi! That coffee thing gets me everytime. Have to make coffee before or pause after intro and go make some! 😀 I look forward to your videos every day. TY for making them and sharing them with us.
10:31 If you actually listened. He obviously said “And even if there is no food, they might drop by just to see if there is anything tasty,”” That clearly means that the bears will still look for food no matter the amount. 🫵😹🤓
Does everything have medicinal purposes in China? Why are they allowed to partake in these practices yet export so many products, _including food?!_ I hope there’s an international entity like the FDA that monitors their practices!
Alligator Snapping turtles, alligators, and cockroaches are indeed concerning invasive species in Taiwan. Many people breed and keep them as a pet that they could break out if someone abandoned them in the wild. However at least now, they are still in control. The Formosan macaque once overran Taiwan until it was removed from protected wildlife.
That's wild to me, as somebody in the US, that folks would willingly breed alligator snapping turtles. I get the idea, don't get me wrong, but I'm assuming you've heard more than a few horror stories about farmers getting maimed by these walking tanks?
@@sodasaintcommentaries4054 I only heard those stories from abroad. I don't think there's ever been someone be bitten by a snapping turtle here, but there are often news here about people abandoning snapping turtles that over 30 kg, latest one just 4 days ago. The person who abandon animals will be fined, well, if the Animal Protection Office is able to find the owner. After all, only dogs need to be registered now. To be honest, alligator snapping turtles are slow and prone to biting only when they are threatened, it is more safer than common snapping turtles. So government only banned the latter.
Toads are ingenious I have seen borooughs that the walls of the entrance were fortified with glass pcs I would leave a stone in their tunnel And it would be removed
I'm telling you: an unobtrusive reminder to like & sub is parallel to the goings on, as we listen & watch: DON'T DERAIL ANY PART OF THE VIDEO TO DO SO: I'll tell you what you need, it's a visible icon while-the-video-plays & a point of sound-bit while the video plays; amidst content a-like-icon is edited-in, at that same moment an uplifting-smooch-sound or angelic-tinkle-bell-chimes amongst your audio, edited-in. Same with a sub-icon-edit & sound-bite-edit, so simple.
South Florida has almost every one of those animals. The only reason that iguanas haven't already taken over is because lots of people love to eat them.
That, and Florida has learned the hard way what happens when invasives aren't controlled (IE: the burmese python's introduction to the everglades, NUMEROUS tropical fish species being introduced to fresh, marine and brackish waters, and so on).
Hm I've only seen alligators/crocs in zoos though there is one place that was more of a farm in Taiwan I did however see a large Iguana in a park once, that was like 6 years ago so I guess the issue got out of hand. Also if there are cane toads, then we are probably fucked, since there would be no easy way to track them once rain season happens.
There's a very big problem with feeding monkeys. See, their social ladder is like this. The stronger more up the ladders monkeys bully the lesser ones for food. Do you know what happens when you start giving food to them? You become the lesser monkey in their eyes. It has absolutely resulted in aggression and attacks. This " habit " of theirs is going to be ruinous. If not for the locals then for the monkeys themselves when authorities are forced to put them down on sight. All because people don't bother to research animal behavior before doing something. And that's assuming the authorities reaction doesn't trigger some war between the two.
Seems like a good reason to promote marksmanship and high powered air guns. We have the same problem with iguanas in South Florida. AND it's for the same reason; intitled assholes who just have to have a colorful lizard for a pet...until it gets several feet long and starts tearing up the furniture!
Long rant, it’s not a big deal, u said 1 month, but adult crocodiles can typically survive 6 months to a year without eating, younger individuals have a faster metabolism, so they may only last 4-6 months. They’re able to do this by entering a state of reduced activity and their metabolism, similar to the "brumation" of alligators, to further conserve their energy during the fast. With everything thus far they’ve been able to outlive, I wouldn’t be surprised if they remain here on earth, long after humans going extinct. Unless of course man wipes them out first, which’s always a possibility. But to be fair, there’s been a lot of ppl doing good work in conservation. Australia, for example just about wiped out their population of saltwater crocs, but through conservation, in 1999 they were classified as of least concern, and that’s from being placed on the endangered species list in 1971. Hope everyone has a great day, this has been a great way for me to kill time, but unfortunately it’s time for me to get back to work,😭, BOL.
I hope you know that most of us watching this have PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance). So counterintuitively, it is far more likely that I will like a video that does not request me to like it than it is that I will like a video that has specifically requested me to like it. I know it's counterintuitive, but it's the way a lot of, I think a lot of the minds that are interested in this channel and a lot of the minds that persist here, function. And to be ignorant of that and to ignore it is kind of foolish, so I'm giving you the information now. Maybe you weren't aware of it before. We have pathological demand avoidance. It's a common thing for us.
Hello Watop, I am a Taiwanese person who has lived in Taiwan for 25 years. I have never seen alligator snapping turtles in lakes here. Taiwan also does not have large alligator farms. The alligator farms in your video are in mainland China, not Taiwan. The scenes of alligators running around the streets are also in China, not Taiwan. Using such videos to misrepresent Taiwanese people makes me unhappy. 😡😡😡😡😡😡
So, a quick Google search tells you everything he said is true. There are NOT alligator farms in Taiwan, but he said crocodile farms. There is one LEGAL crocodile farm, and many illegal operations, as well as a slew of Taiwanese dishes for cooking Crocodile. Quit trying to incite racism.
Also, another quick Google search will show you a bunch of reports where alligator snapping turtles were abandoned, and have become sort of a problem. Again, quit inciting racism.
@thomascoleman594 Calm down. So I mean there is what like 1600 miles apart and we are on the other side of the globe so yeah he made mistakes. He's human and has a good channel. Don't be a Karen
QUESTION: Humans are told not to help animals because they will depend on you and never make it in the wild, but then you have pets released into the wild and thriving. I think it's because animals only kill the humans with demon souls and the good souls connect with nature, it's probably the demons don't want to be outed so they forbid contact even though the true humans can live in harmony with nature without having to abuse the animals to be domesticated.
As a recovering drug addict, what the ****** are you taking? The stupidity in that sentence, with the stupidest idea, I have ever heard. You are either on some type of drug, or you need to be. You should go see a psychiatrist ASAP. You need to be diagnosed. I think you might be schizophrenic, I am schizophrenic too, so don’t freak out. But you definitely need to see someone, so you can get treated. That or stop taking whatever drugs you’re on, see a doctor, and a psychiatrist, please. I good starting point would be to show them your comment and yes, my reply. Hey 👋 doctors. Love ❤️ from Australia 🇦🇺
The video clips and contents mentioned are actually from “China” not “Taiwan”. This video title is incorrect. It’s supposed toto be you can’t abandon your house in “China” not “Taiwan”
This video misrepresents Taiwan rather drastically.. Been in Taiwan for 2 decades, avid outdoors man. Alligator turtles, Crocodiles,, Please name the counties or i call B.S Piranhas, Tiger fish, are rare, Monkey/deer and wild boar sightings, not common. Bear and pangolin, clouded leopard very rare, wish they would reproduce and return from the brink of extinction.
5:20 “oNly 30 tO 60 eGgS a YeAr tHaTs nOt a lOt “ bruhh u must be numb because of the videos you make to think 30 to 60 crocs a year per female croc isn’t a lot😒🤦🏿♂️
wonder how many barrels of fresh water you'd need before that turtle stopped tasting like mud?
Three
It takes at least a week of daily water changes

If you abandon your home don't leave your pets
Why would anyone leave a farm unmanaged for a year?
There could be all kinds of reasons. Maybe they wend broke and could no longer feed them, so they just left. Maybe the person that ran it got sick.
If you left a house empty, there wouldn't be any food for the bears to eat, because like you suggested, the house would be empty. 😂😂😂
10:31 If you actually listened. He obviously said “And even if there is no food, they might drop by just to see if there is anything tasty,””
That clearly means that the bears will still look for food no matter the amount. 🫵😹🤓
So what? The bear will still squat your house.
