That’s a misconception they can carry leprosy but they are not particularly disease ridden, and there are very few cases of leprosy attributed to armadillos
"That is a huge frog!" Millie: "I thought it was a snake" James: "I thought it was a coyote" Both of their facial expressions when they see the huge frog! HAHAHA Laugh out loud!
When you live or work with animals like that spotting them everywhere becomes second nature. I had never seen a snake a day in my life despite hiking for years. After I ran across a few water snakes I did some research. Then I started walking slower, learned what to look for and where to look and suddenly "Oh look, by the water!" . It's not planted or some crazy skill, just sheer experience and familiarity with what you're searching for.
I live in NE Texas and we have those same creatures here. Wasp are really vicious and have a very bad sting. But their sting is not as bad as a yellow jacket. We used to go frog gigging and catch bull frogs for their legs. They are actually good fried and taste like fishy chicken. In my area, we have raccoons, possums, bobcats, road runners, wild hogs, wild turkey, deer, coyotes, armadillos (armored plated rats), owls, squirrels, and a variety of snakes both venemous and non-venemous.
These creatures are very much part of the east Texas swamp/bayou area. Not many of the wetland varmints up here in arid west Texas. Our critters are a little bigger. There are a lot of different species across the state.
"How do you spot that?!?!" It's experience and movement. They've been doing it so long that anything that doesn't belong draws their attention. I've seen it in military vets, hunters, and photographers. I'm not as good - but I'm no slouch either.
The worst thing about picking up a frog or toad is..... they instantly piss on you. A defense mechanism so predators won't eat them. It's so gross but you kinda get used to it. You also learn to carry hand sanitizer for this reason lol
Most of these critters he’s spotting and finding they’re using the eyes home from their flashlight. Not all but most shine right back at you like they have a flashlight themselves
A few years ago I was stung by a swarm of Yellow Jackets about 30 times when I was mowing. Multiple stings on the back of my hands, some on my face and many on my knees.
I live about an hour from this spot. The green anole puffs out it's neck, which turns reddish, as a defense mechanism. He wasn't pulling it down. They do it on their own.
Yes, there can be small alligators in ponds. We get panthers (mountain lions) walking through. We’ve had wolves at times after they were released or escaped from someone’s home. Lots of stuff to watch out for.
I have geckos around my house (outside) all the time. I most often see them on my window screens (which you have said you don't commonly have in the U.K.) They are so cute, crawling around the windows. We have the brown ones (Mediterranean) as well as the green ones.
I actually live less than 3 miles from Chain O Lakes, my wife even worked there for a few months waiting for a vet tech opening. The number of alligators, gar, and a dozen other creatures there is amazing. They walk around with marshmallows to keep wild life at bay.
I'm a born and raised Texan. I'm an avid hunter and fisherman. I can tell you without a doubt that that bullfrog he found wasn't nearly as big as they get here. I've caught them almost twice that size as a kid. And I've hunted them for their tasty legs for many years as well. They will literally eat anything that they can fit into their mouths. Mice, rats, other frogs, snakes, anything that fits. Awesome animals.
You guys HAVE TO see Coyote's "Brave Wilderness" series where he intentionally allows the most dangerous bugs and critters in the world ro bite him. This man is incredible!
I live in Cleveland Texas, not too deep into the woods, but I do see some is those animal often. There are so many more that I would love to have seen on this video. Greeting from Texas 🤠.
The way you protect yourself is to look for the shine in their eyes whenever you're in the dark so you're looking for their eyes just so you know especially in Texas in the wild parts
Hi! First, re frog, Mark Twain wrote a story about the jumping frog of calaveras county. Second, herf in my section of Louisiana, all around the apt complex, there are both brown and green geckos. Yes, that throat sac is part of their "hello, ladies!" Yes, there are quite a few critters between Texas and Louisiana
Beesleys, his enthusiasm reminds me of the late Steve Irwin of the Australia Zoo, who died from an accidental sting by a sting ray 20+ years ago. How do skaters do a triple salchow? How does a skier fly downhill at around 70mph/120kph? How do race car drivers driver at more than 200mph/320kph? It's all one thing--lots of practice. That's how these 2 guys can find animals in very low light. Did you notice that when he went to the edge of the property how loud the crickets became? Not exactly Kermit the frog, was it? It couldn't be, because there was no Miss Piggy.
It's much easier to find critters at night. They weren't planting them for the purpose of making a video. All you really need is a good flashlight but a blue light or uv light is very useful as well. You just slowly move your flashlight around until you see either movement or eyes. We learned this in Cub Scouts here in Texas
Texas is so diverse that what you find in one part, you won’t find in others. Where I grew up in West Texas there wasn’t a lake or river for like 2 -3 hrs away and those were small. Where I live now, closer to the gulf, there are lakes and rivers everywhere and alligators. You won’t find those in WEST Texas. :) The lizard is a Gecko. They change colors depending what they are on. Up north they get snow and multiple freezes yearly, down south it may snow every 15-20 years and usually it is very light. :) I took this way off of animals, which is what this video is about. Sorry. 😂
From Minnesota but in my childhood i caught 2 garter snakes in my neighbors yard and kept them for years. normally they eat crickets and bugs, but because the snakes habitat was near a pond they would only eat minnows.
We have big ole bullfrogs all over the place...the grandkids go out with flashlights looking for them. And they are loud (the frogs and the kids). We also have tons of geckos and tree frogs 🐸
"The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" is an 1865 short story by Mark Twain. It was his first great success as a writer and brought him national attention.[1] The story has also been published as "Jim Smiley and His Jumping Frog" (its original title) and "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County". In it, the narrator retells a story he heard from a bartender, Simon Wheeler, at the Angels Hotel in Angels Camp, California, about the gambler Jim Smiley. The narrator describes him: "If he even seen a straddle bug start to go anywheres, he would bet you how long it would take him to get to wherever he going to, and if you took him up, he would foller that straddle bug to Mexico but what he would find out where he was bound for and how long he was on the road."
as a native Floridian I am so used to all of the snakes, turtles, wasps, geckos and more. I have caught bullfrogs larger than that and I kayak fish with 8 foot alligators. There is not much that scares me, I was catching all of these critters since I was three years old. I can't tell you the number of times I have had little alligators eat poppers and frogs while I am bass fishing. I have multiple pictures holding these little critters and they are photos I will cherish forever. and their reaction was absolutely priceless🤣
Just for your info… most of the time at night you can find those types of animals because their eyes shine in the light. They are designed to be able to see in the dark so their eyes draw as much light as possible. Not like a human. they really glow, so it makes them much easier to spot. without the light they are basically invisible.
Down south there are lizards everywhere. So seeing one is pretty easy. Sometimes at night your house will be covered in hundreds of them. Most are pretty harmless. In some cases if you live near water, your property may have hundreds of little frogs everywhere. So watch where you walk at night.
The camera often make it look darker than it really is. Also the color spectrum of artificial light often make makes camouflage less effective and our eyes are usually very good at detecting motion.
That was actually a fairly small bull frog around here. My duck pond has several that seeing the eye spread, that is how we find them in the dark, we have thought we had baby alligators.
I have part of bayou on my land and the boys go "frog gigging" to catch those big bullfrogs to eat. I fry up the legs for them but I just can't chew on a frog leg bone like a chicken bone so i take mine off the bone and make etoufee.
i live near a creek and you can hear bull frogs all night long in the summer. Louder than the chirping of a million insects. Also I saw a comment below about armadillos. Those things dont care at all about being quiet at night. Most animals at night are very silent. Coyotes, Bob cats, raccoons, snakes even tortoises can move at night rather silently. If you do hear something tromping around in the leaves or through the bushes or trying to dig under your tent its an armadillo or something rabid. They dont care about being seen or heard the will tromp right through the brush and they dont run when you shine a light on them. One track mind, armadillos. They are cool looking though if you are lucky to see one in person. Most see them as road kill on the side of the interstate but in the wild they have no fear.
I'm a Native Rural Texan and all these animals are actually pretty common in my area, I will say this as hard as they are the gar fish is probably one of the best tasting fish you will ever eat.
Yeah I would like to see more from Brave Wilderness. I think his insect sting pain index journey is one that you should watch, but if that's not your style I would suggest really any video from them but for some reason the one that sprung to my mind at the moment was the "MONSTER Sockeye Catch!" video. Also as a note, more than likely the TH-cam video compression as well as the angle of the cameras probably is what made it seem like they had "50/50" vision. Though I don't doubt that they also have that.
😂😂😂😂 y’all. Your reactions to those critters had me laughing so hard! Yes, we have frog jumping contests here in the states…mostly smaller farming towns.
I’ve stayed at the Chain of Lakes. Was in those cabins and had a inlet with a big ol gator waiting to see if we would throw out food in the water. Wouldn’t get in that water. It’s an hour north of Houston.
I love my lizards! They are my pest control and are cute little dudes. Armadillos come into my yard often digging around for worms and grubs. They can be destructive with their rooting and digging, so I catch them and relocate them. They are easy to catch since they have very poor eyesight.
I live in Texas and we have those Green Anoles everywhere around our house. Especially the back patio. they eat insects so they are welcome. And we have salmon colored geckos. Your reaction to that giant bullfrog had me cracking up. Awesome reactions.
Who runs up and grabs a snake? Well, many American kids. lol. Pretty normal when your growing up, to learn about wild life in your area and catch it. Obviously depending on where you live, your taught early which things are safe to grab. Your also taught where dangerous spots may be. My first pet snake I found on a tree in our yard. It was a garter snake. Doens't bite, had not teeth or anything. Friendly little snake. It would curl up on my dads chest (under his shirt) and sleep. I will say though, it also seemed to happen more when I was growing up in the 80s before the internet became a big thing. Kids were always outdoors.
I'm fairly certain Coyote and Crew are Wildlife Biologists/Zoologists and are well trained in spotting and identifying creatures. Not sure which one, but I'm certain they're some form of Ologist.
FYI Gar don't bite people. They actually use the teeth by opening their mouth then slashing their head from side to side to injure smaller fish, making it easier for them to catch and eat. Not at all like a piranha, shark, or alligator. I catch a lot of these while fishing for catfish. Some of them have been over 5' long!
I def would like to see ya'll watch more videos about the different wildlife here in the states. I thoroughly enjoyed Millie's reaction to some of the animals hahaha. I'm curious what type of animals are in Jersey.
That poor little gar. A day of swimming about trying to eat and not be eaten. Stopped for nap, and gets snatched out of water. Yes please, more of this.
I live in Southern Ohio and I caught a bullfrog once that would put that one to shame. I remember the exact spot I pulled it from in a overhang from a muddy creekbed.
I was about to comment that it was a small one compared to most Texas bullfrogs...probably a younger one. I've eaten some frogs legs that were bigger than a chicken leg.😀
Native Texan here... Snakes & Roaches are what freak me out most!! TONS of both. *My oldest daughter used to have a pet snake she would wear around her neck to places like Walmart* ... SO funny watching people freak out when they realized it was REAL!!
So many damned roaches. I moved here a little over a year ago and could not believe the size of these things. They're enormous and nothing I've tried over the last 14 months has kept them out of the house. Haven't seen a single (wild) snake since moving here, I guess where I am is too urban.
@@chriswhinery925 - You have to get a professional pesticide company to come out and spray inside & out. Like Orkin or Terminix. If you have a bad infestation then they might have to come out twice & spray again weeks later. It's a yearly thing we have to do! But It helps a lot. (some even fly😱) It's best to have them spray when it hasn't been raining or going to rain so the chemicals don't wash away outside. We usually have them come around May. Good luck. :)
My brother, sister , myself and a couple cousins, would pick out bullfrogs one each and we would make bets who’s frog was biggest , fastest, best jump distance, we never hurt them , we didn’t keep them, we’d put them back in the bank creak and free them.
1:00 lol why do you guys still assume people in California live in posh Hollywood lives. They've got bears and mountain lions, which many parts of the US don't have. Lol.
I grew up in East Texas and have seen all of these critters. I used to catch the little anoles and play with them, and love listening to the bull frogs singing. I kept waiting for him to jump on an alligator. That would have been cool. Oh, and red wasps are the spawn of Satan. Hate those things!.
Fried frog legs are delicious. Cleveland, Texas is just up the road from Houston (less than an hour) so they are not that far from the big city life. I have seen many of those creatures here around my neighborhood but not frogs that big.
In response to your amazement that the videographer spotted that little green lizard (anole), a friend of mine who has done professional photography once told me that doing photography (and probably videography) trains your eye to pick up details, so it's not surprising that the videographer spotted what Pete missed.
Coyote Peterson is an odd duck. He does animal videos where he lets various animals sting, bite or stick him. He has one where he lets a porcupine stab his hand full of quills and another where he lets an alligator bite him. He is crazy but his videos are so entertaining. You should do a react to them
On hot Oklahoma days we'd hang out along the creeks and look for the other type of gar species he mentioned - alligator gar. Sometimes we'd catch them on top water plugs, other times just shoot them when they came up to bask. A trash fish, they would clean out a lot of other fish so we'd kill as many as we could. The state record in Oklahoma for an alligator gar is 245 pounds, 8-feet long and 44 inches around. At night we'd wear headlamps and wade around pond edges to gig bullfrogs. Take'em home, clean them and mom would fry those fat, yummy legs. Just watch out while wading for water moccasin snakes - they're aggressive! Love the rural country life.
As a native Texan I would have enjoyed your reaction to an armadillo. They are truly prehistoric looking critters.
Yeah... they freak me out. Lol
Yeah, but you never wanna go touching wild armadillos without protection, they are rife with disease
That’s a misconception they can carry leprosy but they are not particularly disease ridden, and there are very few cases of leprosy attributed to armadillos
@@vincentfrizell7055 they do carry Hansen's disease, however it doesn't make the human/animal transition easily
I have to disagree, they do have higher rates of leprosy than other animals. It’s why you should never eat them.
"That is a huge frog!"
Millie: "I thought it was a snake"

This guy is so dramatic about things that are just everyday creatures. Lizards and frogs are especially common. I love this guy.

And fire ants I hate them little devils
These creatures are very much part of the east Texas swamp/bayou area. Not many of the wetland varmints up here in arid west Texas. Our critters are a little bigger. There are a lot of different species across the state.
Actual coyotes, roadrunners, bobcats, horned toads, longhorn cattle, deer, even some bighorn sheep and javelina.
There is also bison herds. They are genetically different from the Dakota and Wyoming herds.

@@chriswhinery925 If that wasn't enough, evil looking scorpions.
I was just like this guy when I was 12 years old I love his childlike enthusiasm for animals
"How do you spot that?!?!" It's experience and movement. They've been doing it so long that anything that doesn't belong draws their attention. I've seen it in military vets, hunters, and photographers. I'm not as good - but I'm no slouch either.
And light reflecting off the eyes
"The wilds of Texas" I have to laugh... Cleveland is one hours drive to Houston.
I had most of those creatures as pets at one time or another when I was a kid. The green Anole lizards become very tame, and can be hand fed. 😃
Have videos of one that likes to lick our doorbell cam, haha
I enjoyed that. Thanks please do more just like it Millie's reactions made it way more fun. Thank you again.
I thoroughly enjoyed this Millie's reactions always are on point we just need more of these
The worst thing about picking up a frog or toad is..... they instantly piss on you. A defense mechanism so predators won't eat them. It's so gross but you kinda get used to it. You also learn to carry hand sanitizer for this reason lol
We need more Millie reacting to Coyote and do some of his painful stings videos
and wild hogs
The first one couldn't have been a gecko. It didn't try to sell him auto insurance. . .😁😁
Brave Wilderness is such a great channel and as a native Texan, I loved seeing your reactions! Great video!

i live in LV and we have them as well. There's a family in my back yard-which is great. They keep the bugs down...
It's possible he has a very good ability to spot animals, I know my mom grew up hunting and she can see a deer/elks ear from a mile away it seems lol

I agree. Completely insane lol
There is no greater fear than the moment you lean in to look at a frog and it jumps directly at/on you. I get creeped out just thinking about it.
I grew up in the woods and you get to the point where you can spot different critters that blind in
I live in Cleveland Texas, not too deep into the woods, but I do see some is those animal often. There are so many more that I would love to have seen on this video. Greeting from Texas 🤠.
I love Coyote! His search for the most painful sting was such a crazy time!
By panning with the light you can see animal eyes reflecting back. That's how they initially spot them
Nighttime is one of the best times to spot them because their eyes shine in the light
When i was a kid i absolutely loved animal in nature shows.
The way you protect yourself is to look for the shine in their eyes whenever you're in the dark so you're looking for their eyes just so you know especially in Texas in the wild parts
Him catching that bullfrog reminds me my great grandfather will go frog gigging for tomorrow's dinner
With a flashlight you can see the eyes. Often used to catch frogs at night. We called it gigging. Frog gigging.
Calaveras County, California has an annual frog jumping competition! The longest jump is 5.365 meters.

As for how he is spotting most of the animals is eye shine from the flashlight and movement
The wasps are big but also slow. I've been stung once, it didn't hurt much, and the pain went away relatively fast compared to other wasps.
We have several Mediterranean Geckos that live in the outside of our walls. They live in the wood trim and the under the wall hardieplanks
There were the green anoles(lizards) in Florida, but now you just see the brown anole. And they're everywhere. They're invasive.
Famous last words, "I think we should head off into the darkness."

Are you thinking to live in Texas Beesleys?! lol the guy is so in love with the frog!
Turtle fried up like chicken is excellent and so are frog legs.
If you train your eyes in nature you learn to spot camouflaged insects & animals .
I've seen way bigger bull frogs in my grandparents fridge back in the 80's.. Lol
Yep and we can't lick Toads.
They have many frog jumping contests in the US based on a MarkTwain story.
FYI Gar don't bite people. They actually use the teeth by opening their mouth then slashing their head from side to side to injure smaller fish, making it easier for them to catch and eat. Not at all like a piranha, shark, or alligator. I catch a lot of these while fishing for catfish. Some of them have been over 5' long!
I def would like to see ya'll watch more videos about the different wildlife here in the states. I thoroughly enjoyed Millie's reaction to some of the animals hahaha. I'm curious what type of animals are in Jersey.
Home of the wild American Gym Rat. If you listen close you can hear their trademark vocalizations. "How much you bench?! How much you bench?!"
Largest Gar fish caught in TX was 6ft or 183cm and over 300lbs 21.5 stone or 137kg
That poor little gar. A day of swimming about trying to eat and not be eaten. Stopped for nap, and gets snatched out of water. Yes please, more of this.
Yes, but what a story he has to tell the family.
That is a good frying frog! Down in the bayou someone would have caught that frog for dinner 😂
I live in Southern Ohio and I caught a bullfrog once that would put that one to shame. I remember the exact spot I pulled it from in a overhang from a muddy creekbed.
I was about to comment that it was a small one compared to most Texas bullfrogs...probably a younger one. I've eaten some frogs legs that were bigger than a chicken leg.😀
I live in East Texas, we have yellow jacket and red wasps the deal is, leave them alone and they leave you alone.
I have caught a bullfrog bigger then that one in North Dakota when I was in 4th grade. My brother would walk him with a leash. 😆 🤣 😂
I have a tattoo of a green anole on my shoulder. I love them soo much they’re always running around my back yard.
Yall should look at alligatorgar. I used to catch 6 and 7 footers in east Texas.
Native Texan here... Snakes & Roaches are what freak me out most!! TONS of both. *My oldest daughter used to have a pet snake she would wear around her neck to places like Walmart* ... SO funny watching people freak out when they realized it was REAL!!
So many damned roaches. I moved here a little over a year ago and could not believe the size of these things. They're enormous and nothing I've tried over the last 14 months has kept them out of the house.
Haven't seen a single (wild) snake since moving here, I guess where I am is too urban.
@@chriswhinery925 - You have to get a professional pesticide company to come out and spray inside & out. Like Orkin or Terminix. If you have a bad infestation then they might have to come out twice & spray again weeks later. It's a yearly thing we have to do! But It helps a lot. (some even fly😱) It's best to have them spray when it hasn't been raining or going to rain so the chemicals don't wash away outside. We usually have them come around May. Good luck. :)
My brother, sister , myself and a couple cousins, would pick out bullfrogs one each and we would make bets who’s frog was biggest , fastest, best jump distance, we never hurt them , we didn’t keep them, we’d put them back in the bank creak and free them.
1:00 lol why do you guys still assume people in California live in posh Hollywood lives. They've got bears and mountain lions, which many parts of the US don't have. Lol.
I grew up in East Texas and have seen all of these critters. I used to catch the little anoles and play with them, and love listening to the bull frogs singing. I kept waiting for him to jump on an alligator. That would have been cool. Oh, and red wasps are the spawn of Satan. Hate those things!.
Fried frog legs are delicious. Cleveland, Texas is just up the road from Houston (less than an hour) so they are not that far from the big city life. I have seen many of those creatures here around my neighborhood but not frogs that big.
Back when Ft Bend çounty was still rice fields, giant bullfrogs we're everywhere, some much bigger than the one in this video.
I also recommend checking out practical engineering's videos covering the 2003 Northeast blackout or covering the 2021 Texas Blackout.
When you hunt, you see things before anyone else does.
In response to your amazement that the videographer spotted that little green lizard (anole), a friend of mine who has done professional photography once told me that doing photography (and probably videography) trains your eye to pick up details, so it's not surprising that the videographer spotted what Pete missed.
If you like Coyote, I think you’d really enjoy the craziness of his “Worst sting” series. Cheers!
I caught a 50 lb alligator gar in my backyard in Alabama. It nearly took off my toes, lol
Coyote Peterson is an odd duck. He does animal videos where he lets various animals sting, bite or stick him. He has one where he lets a porcupine stab his hand full of quills and another where he lets an alligator bite him. He is crazy but his videos are so entertaining. You should do a react to them
On hot Oklahoma days we'd hang out along the creeks and look for the other type of gar species he mentioned - alligator gar. Sometimes we'd catch them on top water plugs, other times just shoot them when they came up to bask. A trash fish, they would clean out a lot of other fish so we'd kill as many as we could. The state record in Oklahoma for an alligator gar is 245 pounds, 8-feet long and 44 inches around. At night we'd wear headlamps and wade around pond edges to gig bullfrogs. Take'em home, clean them and mom would fry those fat, yummy legs. Just watch out while wading for water moccasin snakes - they're aggressive! Love the rural country life.
They are NOT trash fish. How nice of you to kill native animals for no other reason but because you can.
