The evacuation alarm and baby crying are both sounds that clear out humans. He 100% knows what he's doing.
imagine people of ancient times hearing a baby crying outside the woods at night lmao
Or a chainsaw while ur camping 😂
That's what they evolved to do
The "evacuate now" part was really 👌
I watched this bird at Taronga zoo for ages. It mimicked camera clicks, chainsaws, nail guns, phone rings, people laughing. Amazing.
I saw that bird in October 2019, & could hear it mimic one of the women announcers on a mike, but couldn't quite make out what 'she' was saying!---It's exciting to find this snippet here!
Be out in the woods hunting and it mimics a chainsaw lol
Chainsaw??! Where he heard that in a zoo?
@@Vor567tez chainsaw is famously mimicked in a David Attenborough doco/video on them, they might be confusing it, or it could very well have heard chainsaws. Taronga has a lot of trees in & around it, common in storms for trees to come down & need chainsaw removal & also chainsaw maintenence of potentially dangerous branches before they fall onto someone. Leaf blowers would be expected to be a much more common sound, but I would certainly expect animals in that location to be hearing chainsaws at least occasionally. Would be much like the nailgun in terms of frequency heard, not an everyday event, but would happen
@@Vor567tezthere was a section of the zoo that was under renovation and and the bird could hear all the workers using their power tools lol
The one that can say "evacuate now" is going to have a good time messing with people at the zoo.
Imagine being lost in the forest at night and start earing a baby crying 🥶
Imagine hearing *WHOOP* *WHOOP* *WHOOP* EVACUATE NOW
@@YuriHabadakas And then seeing the lion pen empty.
Or a chainsaw
Lyrebird. The best mimicry on earth ❤
Birds that mimic are amazing and yes, they often know what they are doing. A hotel in Florida where I used to stay had an African grey parrot that learned to mimic that sound the old Nextel phones used to make when being used as an intercom, and when an employee went by the bird would make the sound so perfectly that they poor Joe kept trying to answer his page. That bird also knew to wish you good morning in the morning and good night at night and when he saw I had my key out, he would look at me then look at it and say "I want this one" until I gave it to him to play with for a while.
My lorikeets do a PERFECT home phone impression. If I'm waiting for a call on my home phone & am near by bird cage, it is literally impossible to tell which is "ringing". I have to keep my phone on silent as much as possible to reduce the frequency of their "ringing".
I had a carer take me & my birds to the vet once & she kept looking at her phone while driving, I thought she was checking the time (cause we were running late), till she finally commented "oh, it's the bird!!!!!!!" lol I'm so used to the ringing that I hadn't even made the connection that my bird was "ringing" & carer thought it was her phone. Being a mobile, I had just assumed it's ring tone would have been different to my bird's home phone "ring"
This is the first time I am hearing a human voice from Lyrebird. Nature is amazing.
It has a great Australian accent, too.
Aussie's have a great sense of humor. So do their animals. I mean - have you see a platypus?!!
That bird needs to go on a world tour and make itself rich beyond words.
I am curious what it's going to do with all the money it earns......
won't have to make noise anymore, it will just be able to buy/bribe any girls it wants with mountains of gifts instead of song lol
@@mehere8038 Make it into a nest egg! 😄
@@Chompchompyerded da da boom!
That bird deserves an Academy Award for that performance. 👏 👏👏🤣🤣🤣
Its totally mind blowing i agree, but we are so used to birds we dont stop for a moment to comprehend that these creatures can literally FLY. I think that is even more mind blowing and underappreciated.
This is insane!! What an amazing creature!
I imagine the zoo keeper is going around muttering -🤷 "dang it laddie, that's the 3rd time this week you've evacuated the zoo!😡
Hilarious to hear what sounds he finds most interesting. 😅
not sure if it applies to lyrebirds, but my birds & lots of pet ones tend to mimic what they hear when stressed. Smoke detectors are a really common one, as are swear words, cause they tend to pick up on the human being emotionally distressed at the point they are saying those words, therefore they take more note of them & learn them. Human kids do the same
Imagine a person who hates baby crying, visiting the zoo to relax and hearing this bird mimics like baby crying 😅
Crying baby sound is magnificent, it's made me laugh. :)
Hes actually very extremely amazing and fantastic to mimic but yet he can actually give you a headache
Absolutely Amazing!!
He can actually sound like a chainsaw, camera, camera with a motor drive, machine gun shooting, hammering, other bird calls, human voices, baby crying, construction site sounds, etc
Sir David Attenborough did a talk on the Australian Superb Lyrebird and it copied his words, so you know it’s true! You’d think they have a tape recorder in them ! It also imitated the theme from Seinfeld! 😂
OMG I love this!
That bird has insane potential for Beatboxing
I want to make an entire rock/rap band composed of these talented birds for a worldwide tour $$$
Imagine that lyre bird imitating a mid teenager cussing
Birds are incredibly beings
How incredibly ignorant are those guys who know NOTHING about Australian Wildlife.
Imagine if you were just a explorer you're exploring some destroyed building covered in overgrown plants an the only history to tell you what happened is a bird saying evacuate now while mimicking alarms
Or a chainsaw
Those birds are smart enought to crave and enjoy the attention and give an espectacle on
Wow, made human sounds 😂
Best bird
Sounds like the bird even did Evacuate Now in an Australian accent 😃
Why would it have any other accent?
My poor neighbours...I watched some of them casually ignore the Evacuate Now alarm last night...knowing it was probably another false alarm ,the way it has been ,so often ,in their building. I certainly hope last night was not a return to those alarms going off regularly again...
baby was filming that? Yeah...
Imagine what these birds could do if they had human-like language processing. They would make their keepers go nuts on a level off the scale.
It was doing this before the lion escape
Omg. 😂😂😂😂😂 ❤ this!
After that lion incident, those damn birds are now proficient at mimicking a human screaming in agony
And lion burps
Animals are cool
How hilarious
None of them deserve to be in cages. They are all intelligent.
You need with the bird on payroll! 👌😚
The bird has an aussi accent.😂
Oh "The project" the best news source since ACA lost flavour
Damn. Use that bird in a commercial. Or make an animated version of the bird that sings.
Now imagine if it's mating season for the lyrebirds.
They should make a sign saying, "NO SCREAMING OR SWEARING. LYREBIRDS COPY EVERYTHING"
Guess they’ll need a new alarm
Cries like a baby, sounds like the main project host every time he doesn't like something.
I was there and i was scared xD
They can also imitate a chainsaw and a camera shutter, saw it on david Attenborough
❤
i think someone make editing
Starlings can do the same thing
Great video, god the hosts are not funny
Dang it I want that bird.
They have to change the evacuation sound now
yeh but that won't actually work in that setting, cause the human visitors won't hear to know the new sound, so will still think the lyrebird's one is real too lol
🤣🤣😂😂
Isn't that amazing
αγαπορνιθα
Most normal zoo in Australia.

Lyre bird copy and mimic and sound it hears not like parrots
Strewth
The jabberjay of today's earth.

Holy hell….now when are we supposed to know when it’s real….😂😂😂
😂😂
