I'm so happy you made an episode about Pangolins! They are pretty much my favourite animal. It's like an armadillo and an anteater mixed... bred for it's skills in magic.
Absolutely loved this episode. From the raccoon to the title humor to the endtro to the description to the amazing facts. Loved. I feel like The Brain Scoop is really getting into a groove, and I'm so excited for it's future.
A while ago, Emily mentioned Pangolins in a video, and I had never heard of it. I had to look it up online.It is a very cool creature and I'm glad we got to see this more extended tour of it on the show.
You showed some true fan colors about half way through the video. Facts were flying, you were having fun, and drumming S.M. Raccoon was hilarious! These continue to be one of the best shows on TH-cam!
I'm always waiting for her final sentence, after the outro. I'm expecting "it still has brains on it", but every once in a while I get a special treat.
Ok, the joke at the start with the drum roll killed me. I am actually dead. Maybe I will be delivered to your door to be skinned. I am also a penguin. A dead penguin. That is all.
It's sad to know that such a good channel isn't receiving the number of views that it deserves, that it has to resort to having advertisements on the beginning. :| Emily, you're an absolute delight to watch, and your job is incredibly interesting, and I hope people get in on this.
I get a lot of questions about what my favorite specimen is in the collection and, uh, after much deliberation and serious consideration, came to the conclusion that it is probably the pangolin. And this is for a multitude of reasons. For one, um, I'm really surprised that we have one in our collection Nice rhyme, Emily
Emily, thanks so much for being a regular content uploader! Hank has surely shown you a winning strategy for up-and-coming TH-cam channels. I get so sad when quality channels upload once in a blue moon. :(
Every time I see a new Brain Scoop video in my subscriptions list I get as excited as a kid on Christmas morning opening the BIG present from under the tree ;-]
Woah, yet again another fantastic episode from Brainscoop! And I'd never even heard of a Pangolin before now, I've been converted :P Thanks team for the great work
I love that you talked about Pangolins, Emily! I learned about this amazing creature while visiting the San Diego Zoo last year. They had a Pangolin that came out for limited viewings in the afternoon, and is apparently one of very few in the Western Hemisphere in captivity. (He was rescued trying to be illegally imported.) They're really cute in person and interesting to watch. The particular one I saw kept wrapping his tail around the zookeeper, parts of the exhibit, and all over basically.
You know what would be pretty incredible. A roadtrip. Like a safari trip or something, take some cameras along and Emily can tell us all about all the animals they go past.
I had never, ever heard of a pangolin before. Obviously the New Zealand education system has failed me in this vital task. Emily, thank you for rectifying this!
I didn't even know what a pangolin was before this episode. (And neither does my spellchecker :P) Thanks Emily! I don't know if I love them quite as much as you, but they are fascinating critters!
I love how I just NOW figured out that Michael Aranda links Emily Graslie to Charlie McDonnell and Alex Day. And I've probably watched videos with any of the 4 of them in at least 4 different countries for a few years now...THE WORLD IS SUCH A TINY PLACE.
see now this is why I love thebrainscoop! Looking at a pangolin, I'd never believe it's a mammal. All those scales, I'd have instantly thought reptile! New knowledge is awesome. And Emily is awesome too!
AHHHH!!! Thank you so much for talking about Pangolins! They are one of my fave animals. I tried explaining one to my friends once and they were convinced i was crazy lol
ok i haven't even watched this video yet but upon seeing it in my sub box i just threw my hands in the air and whisper-yelled "YES" i'm hella pumped for this vid
Emily is honestly more attractive than the models you see in magazines or celebrities you see on TV. Intelligent women with a passion for something in their lives will always be so much more of a "catch" in my eyes than anything skin deep. Pretty sure the vlogbrothers did a video on that topic at some point
I can't get over how gorgeous your hair is today. ...now I have to go see if I can find a youtube video of live pangolins walking around to witness this adorable method you described...
Emily, I must admit when I clicked on this episode I was think "WTF Pangolin?" Thank you for sharing your love of the pangolin and all the other cool knowledge with us here on the Tubes of You.
I've seen a Pangolin in person at the San Diego zoo. He is tricky to see, since he is not on display. I saw him when they brought him out for a keeper talk in the children's zoo. I think he is the only one (or one of two) Pangolins living in the US, according the keeper.
My fiancé actually had a pet pangolin when she was young and living in Africa... well, pet might not be totally accurate. It was a wild pangolin that had been injured and rescued. It slept on the mantle of their fireplace and otherwise ignored the family. Still, she still has fondness for pangolins to this day. :)
Yay! I always visit the pangolin when I'm at the Field Museum. So cute. Also, unfortunately, so dead. Hope you get to see your living pangolin someday, Emily!
According to a kind lady from my country's zoo. They used to be common in my country until the appearance of screaming children and their heroic parents their numbers have since dwindled greatly. And I am not joking that was how the lady put it across to us
I think it may be because it would cause movement restrictions, if you think about practicality, having something rigid on an area of the body that requires a large range of motion would restrict it quite a bit. If you look at your finger it might be easier to understand, with the armour being on the top side of your finger, when you bend it doesn't conflict with anything when you close your hand, but if it were on the underside it would clash with the other plates when you close your hand.
I love that my favorite animal is finally getting some recognition. Maybe someday I won't have to try to explain Pangolins to people, complete with silly walk.
She means that although they are facing large scale attacks by humans, they aren't listed as endangered or threatened when they should be. She meant that she hopes they are added to the list, not that they become endangered (they kind of already are, just not officially recognized).
that was the greatest drumroll in the history of drumrolls...my life is complete having seen it.
also yay Pangolins
The original poster was clearly aware of this when they made their point.
1. Excellent video
2.That fox sweater is the bomb
3. Raccoon-snare drum bit was clever as heck
well done :D
ITS SANDSHREW!!!!
Sandshrew is a shrew, armadillo,and pangolin
Soon raccoon is getting rambunctious.
That's how Benedict Cumberbatch pronunces "penguins".
Aaaaaaaaaa!
You mean dinosaurs?

SO much love for this channel. I love learning and being grossed out simultaneously.
You showed some true fan colors about half way through the video. Facts were flying, you were having fun, and drumming S.M. Raccoon was hilarious! These continue to be one of the best shows on TH-cam!
This is one of the best shows on youtube. It has everything and an Emily.
I'm always waiting for her final sentence, after the outro.
I'm expecting "it still has brains on it", but every once in a while I get a special treat.
Ok, the joke at the start with the drum roll killed me. I am actually dead. Maybe I will be delivered to your door to be skinned. I am also a penguin. A dead penguin. That is all.
What do penguins have to do with this?
Nothing. I think they just misspelled pangolins.
Gareth Baus because every time she said it, it sounded like penguin.

i've only seen like the first 3 seconds. i love her

Pangolins are cool, specially the way they walk. They look like T-rex pinecones.
Emily said that before!
Love the little quotes at the end of the episodes! Love the rest of the episodes, too, keep up the good work!
I love this TH-cam channel more than The Discovery Channel. Ugh my heart
Just looked up video of Pangolins. LOVE THEM. Their walk really is adorable.
Emily is adorkable. Love these videos.
Stephen Bosher I agree
Great. Thanks Emily. Now I am going to spend the whole day watching adorable pangolin youtube videos.
The sense of humour on this channel was so unique and fun. I love all the ongoing jokes, like the racoon. That scene with the drumroll floored me :')
The Brain Scoop is fast becoming my favourite TH-cam channel.
I didn't even know this animal existed. So, thank you, Emily, for shedding some light onto that.
Every time I see a new Brain Scoop video in my subscriptions list I get as excited as a kid on Christmas morning opening the BIG present from under the tree ;-]
you are the best, enjoy your segments hope you are still on You tube
Woah, yet again another fantastic episode from Brainscoop! And I'd never even heard of a Pangolin before now, I've been converted :P Thanks team for the great work
Thank you michael aranda for your great work!!
I adore the editing and production of this show. And I'm in love with the "soon raccoon."
that drum roll though
I love that you talked about Pangolins, Emily! I learned about this amazing creature while visiting the San Diego Zoo last year.

Aww!! I'd want to hug him!!
You know what would be pretty incredible. A roadtrip. Like a safari trip or something, take some cameras along and Emily can tell us all about all the animals they go past.
Awesome episode!
You are amazing! Please never stop making these!
You guys always do a good job being funny and interesting, and this was no exception. Bravo!
Their tongues are attached to their pelvises??? Whoa!!
Emily, you are awesome! Love the show.
I had never, ever heard of a pangolin before. Obviously the New Zealand education system has failed me in this vital task. Emily, thank you for rectifying this!
This day has finally arrived, the pangolin is here!
So glad someone shares my love for these guys
Still among the top 3 episodes of the Brain Scoop
This is just so cool! I love this show soo much! It just makes me so happy!
The awesomeness increases with each video!
The angelic choir was the perfect touch after the raccoon on the Tommy!
Pangolin's have recently become one of my favorite animals and then this popped up. greatness!
I didn't even know what a pangolin was before this episode. (And neither does my spellchecker :P) Thanks Emily! I don't know if I love them quite as much as you, but they are fascinating critters!
I love how I just NOW figured out that Michael Aranda links Emily Graslie to Charlie McDonnell and Alex Day. And I've probably watched videos with any of the 4 of them in at least 4 different countries for a few years now...THE WORLD IS SUCH A TINY PLACE.
So, who else is feeling the urge to look up a video of the Pangolin walking?
I freaking LOVE this channel!
Really good episode!!! I'd love to see more like it about cool specimens!
objectively, she really did her hair very nice this time. The ponytail on the side and the slight curling of her hair looks kinda pretty.
Great episode, Emily!! I've never heard of a pangolin before. Thank you!
I love what you've done with your hair.
The San Diego Zoo has a live Pangolin, and they bring it out for public viewing every so often. It was so adorable, and its tongue was so long.
see now this is why I love thebrainscoop! Looking at a pangolin, I'd never believe it's a mammal. All those scales, I'd have instantly thought reptile! New knowledge is awesome. And Emily is awesome too!
Some pangolins also walk on their knuckles! Also thank you for featuring my all-time favourite animal on this awesome show!
AHHHH!!! Thank you so much for talking about Pangolins! They are one of my fave animals. I tried explaining one to my friends once and they were convinced i was crazy lol
Love you Emily you put a smile on my face
This is definately the best channel om youtube! :)
ok i haven't even watched this video yet but upon seeing it in my sub box i just threw my hands in the air and whisper-yelled "YES" i'm hella pumped for this vid
I just absolutely adore your right ear.
When I saw this was the video, I think I cried tears of joy.
This was a great episode. The raccoon drum roll was priceless! Great job Emily.
Emily is honestly more attractive than the models you see in magazines or celebrities you see on TV. Intelligent women with a passion for something in their lives will always be so much more of a "catch" in my eyes than anything skin deep. Pretty sure the vlogbrothers did a video on that topic at some point
haven't even watched the entire video and already liked it just for the description.
Oh my god I love this show so much!!!
The bit after the credits was SO ADORABLE.
I need that shirt, damnit.
I can't get over how gorgeous your hair is today.
...now I have to go see if I can find a youtube video of live pangolins walking around to witness this adorable method you described...
Raccoon an a snare drum = BRILLIANT!
Keep up the good work.
Love to listen to you Emily!
I had to pause this video so I could find a video of a pangolin walking. ADORABLE.
Omg I just watched another video on the pangolin walking, and that is literally the cutest thing EVER.
Emily, I must admit when I clicked on this episode I was think "WTF Pangolin?" Thank you for sharing your love of the pangolin and all the other cool knowledge with us here on the Tubes of You.
I just really really love your fox sweater, Emily.
I've seen a Pangolin in person at the San Diego zoo. He is tricky to see, since he is not on display. I saw him when they brought him out for a keeper talk in the children's zoo.
I think he is the only one (or one of two) Pangolins living in the US, according the keeper.
Thanks for posting this. I'd never heard of pangolins before and they're really fascinating.
Every statement at the end of these videos woul make a great t whist
Wow, you researched this just to answer my question? Thank you! I didn't even know where to start looking...
My fiancé actually had a pet pangolin when she was young and living in Africa... well, pet might not be totally accurate. It was a wild pangolin that had been injured and rescued. It slept on the mantle of their fireplace and otherwise ignored the family. Still, she still has fondness for pangolins to this day. :)
You have my dream job Emily, minus the not getting paid part, but I love this channel so much it is so cool :D
Love the description.
racooon roll! MAKE THIS A THING
Raccoon Drumroll! Yay! I'm so glad you have a donation site, I want this series to grow and I am willing to support it.
I would just like to say: Best drum roll ever.
Best intro ever so far!
Cant wait for the next video :) I love this channel
Love the drum roll racoon :-)
Yay! I always visit the pangolin when I'm at the Field Museum. So cute. Also, unfortunately, so dead. Hope you get to see your living pangolin someday, Emily!
"It has this tail that it can wrap around its head when it feels threatened"
IT EVEN USES DEFENSE CURL!
According to a kind lady from my country's zoo. They used to be common in my country until the appearance of screaming children and their heroic parents their numbers have since dwindled greatly. And I am not joking that was how the lady put it across to us
Hey, i love your stuff thanks for all the great content
reasons that the brain scoop is vital to our lives
What a cool critter. Thanks for the video.
That is awesome. Not just the critter, the lady who talks about it and has such a passion for science.
This is the best video I have ever seen.
The implication is obviously not that they aren't endangered, but that they're not recognized as such despite being so.
I think it may be because it would cause movement restrictions, if you think about practicality, having something rigid on an area of the body that requires a large range of motion would restrict it quite a bit.
If you look at your finger it might be easier to understand, with the armour being on the top side of your finger, when you bend it doesn't conflict with anything when you close your hand, but if it were on the underside it would clash with the other plates when you close your hand.
I am totally wearing that same sweater right now!
I love that my favorite animal is finally getting some recognition. Maybe someday I won't have to try to explain Pangolins to people, complete with silly walk.
