Bella is such a naughty girl. I have been watching this and Chris's channel since around spring 2023, but do not usually post. I just wanted to let you all know that I enjoy y'all's content, and I apprechiate your hard work.
Bella is so funny, gabby telling her lay down and it took a second and then she did but the way she laid down was like a child getting mad because they didnt get what they wanted is hilarious. 😂😂😂
Fantastic and informative video that answered a lot of questions I had. Gabby and Chris are wonderful people dedicating their entire lives to rescuing and enrichment for all these wonderful animals. It shows. Thank you for all you do. It is appreciated so much. I also love the discussion of plans and ideas during the video like we're there with you (without the mosquitoes!!) Excellent!
The land yall have is beautiful; I love the Florida terrain despite all the mosquitoes. The alligator enclosure is very expansive, which is great. It’s so depressing to witness any animal resort to pacing back-and-forth when their space is too confined (I notice this happens most with the big cats like lions/tigers). The gators look very content with their space, especially with having such a large body of water. Clever to do no-corners as well. Keep up the good work!
Gabby:"Let's go show some of our big gator enclosures!" Chris:" Yeah."-"So this is our small bird aviary..." 🤣🤣🤣. All jokes aside, you're doing an amazing job!!
The sanctuary is looking great! Haha Bella seems to be comfortable with pushing the boundaries a little bit now, but still seems to know when to.. lay down. It's interesting to hear about the gators and how you acquire them as a sanctuary in Florida. The ones you do end up getting are lucky... the enclosures look really nice and spacious! Hopefully Gaston ends up being OK!
You two definitely go above and beyond in the way you care for your residents; I can literally hear the love and concern in your voices as you talk about them. Every enclosure is thoughtfully designed to meet the specific needs of each animal and they're beautiful! You guys are doing an amazing job, and are so, so appreciated - not only by your rescues, but by us as well 💚
The hospital enclosure looks great. Poor Gaston....I'm sorry that his issue is not easy to solve. Hoping for the best. The aviaries look good. It's sad you can't rescue alligators when they are just sick. I can't believe they won't let you help any alligator that is sick or injured. Horrible.
Bella and Big Mac are such characters. Bella seemed to have listened to Gabby. It is good to see them both so healthy. I do hope Gaston issues get resolved positively. Thanks for all you do for the animals in your care.🎉🎉❤❤
Not many people spend their days avoiding being mauled, bitten, stabbed, poked, and flogged by some of the coolest critters on earth. You 2 definitely lead an interesting life. Kudos to you, Chris and Gabby.
Maybe instead of trying to plant grass where Big Mac is, try some ferns - theres so many different types that would look tropical, i live in south florida and they grow like weeds down here! Love your channel and the love you show these animals.
Great video LD is so well behaved on his leash he such a cutie...never thought I'd say that about a porcupine but here we are lol Appreciate the updates and info on some your plans too! You guys are absolutely the standard for running building and maintaining a Sanctuary you consistently go above and beyond with all you do and I have nothing but the utmost respect for you both!!!
I am glad you both contribute information on this channel. You have so many plans, and I know it will come in time! You might be one of a very few that is a true sanctuary that doesn't breed! You are the best!❤❤
Yeah your enclosers are so bomb 💣🔥❤🔥🐊🧡 You put so much effort into your place I love it upping the Standers!!! Awesome update vlog Gabby and Chris 👏 Conservation 4 EVER, Yeah Crocodile Farms for the Fashion Industry are so overcrowded AF.
Hello Gabby! I love the video. So I’m going to leave a nice long comment to boost your video for the TH-cam algorithm gods! I know it’s hard as a content creator to get the videos you worked so hard on to get going with the algorithm. So hopefully this comment gets it on its way. I used to leave really short comments just saying “hi” or “
Gabby I am so glad you uploaded. Loving all the changes and new enclosures. I am hoping we can maybe get weekly ones cause there is so much new stuff going on. Blessings!
Just aside from the moral good you guys do in the world, your work with injured gators open up an opportunity to learn more about their treatment protocols. Fantastic work guys 🐊💚
Pretty neat that porcupine seemed to recognize it's mommy! Maybe some long lasting full spectrum led lamps? Those get pretty hot plus provide some nutrition?
Bella was thinking “Mom and Dad, you know when you come to see me I want treatos”. She is so funny and a beautiful alligator. I think it’s terrible you aren’t allowed to help sick or injured alligators unless they are deemed nuisance. What kind of asinine law is that? 😢 Thank you Chris and Gabby for dedicating your lives to help these animals. Hugs from Tennessee.
I guess if you’re walking a porcupine, nobody is gonna try to abduct you.😂 Your animal enclosures are top notch. They’re bigger than my apartment in Manhattan.😂
Babe I poce you so much for this. So relatable for so many people 😢 you are the fact checker so you are not popular so that's why your msg is so important
A amateur guess on the little gator... I think that gator might have a gut-leak like it ate a bone that made a hole in its digestive tract that has a slow infection leaking into the abdominal cavity. Your body gasses out & why we must leave deep wounds open for the pressure that can build up.
Would love to hear more about the disease control you guys practice. A quarantine practice maybe similar to aza? It seems like these hospital enclosures seem nil impossible to disinfect entirely (except the tub of course) do you have plans to make another vet-bay/quarantine sort of structure with concrete? Very glad you guys are giving these animals a stable home. My heart goes out to Gaston
If you have sanitary issues like blood-infections in the animals then I think we need a "Comprehensive Drainage Plan" for those pens as they are 'sewage disposal areas'. Basically I'm suggesting you ensure you use all the land elevation to max out the oxygen in the soil to treat for parasites & pathogens. IMO you should have 30% of the land dedicated to drainage for your higher amounts of animal-waste-soil. My soil PH is 4.9 so all of that galvanized wire underground didn't even last two years.
he's so cute! are they known, even in captivity to ever rage quill? lol idk what youd call it.. but instead of bite would they ever just stick someone if they felt fear?
For the birds, is there some risk in cohabitation between the different larger species you have? I can imagine that the toucan and hornbills might not be a good idea to share space with other birds, but is there a risk between different kinds of parrots and/or cockatoos? Also, for Gaston, would the kind of damage the person from Australia mentioned be something that a sonogram might be able to detect if the vet was given details or photos on what kind of damage was observed during the necropsy there?
so damn cute sexy little bum wiggle as walks oi im talking about the porcupine get ya mind out the gutter the guy is so stinking cute thanks for all you do for all the animals lots of love and cwtchs from wales for you and the animals
Fingers crossed 🤞 for gastron 🐊🐊🐊 poor little guy I love the porcupine why do they train it to walk on one side instead of the other is it for safety reasons?
What about making the gator ponds like pools to it. using maybe some sort of glass or glass marbles cemented into the pool to make it smoother in some areas that way it' smoother for them?
Aquascapes ION-GEN that releases copper ions into the water that kills algae. Not sure if it only works with string algae or if it will help you with platonic algae blooms?
❤❤❤ Hi I'm new here but I'm wandering don't you worry about the birds being outside, bad weather and stuff ??? Do you at anything bring them in ?? I'm just curious 🤔
Man Made Ponds To Hold water Clay has to be trucked in Packed in a layer then covered with sand. Expensive. Takes time in stages for water To settle and Clear.
Dude walks with a leash better than some dogs. Mt BF Amazon loves men and me. She dislikes anyone else by pinning her eyes and flaring her tail feathers. Chris May want to warm up with some pistachio nuts. There had to be some type of bacteria that is bloating Gaston. Just my thoughts.
Fox. We related to dogs. What animal is that. I👍👍👍👍🤯🤯🤯repairs are nice😮😮😮😮Sherlock we need you. no hound of the baskervile .crocodile mystery of the nilee. avoid the jaws and jawl
I love it when Gabby says, "No ma'am" to Bella.
Bella is such a naughty girl. I have been watching this and Chris's channel since around spring 2023, but do not usually post. I just wanted to let you all know that I enjoy y'all's content, and I apprechiate your hard work.
Gabby is so gentle, loving, caring, and knowledgeable! Very lovely to see her kindly petting Little Dude.
Gabby you were glowing walking Little Dude! Thank you for sharing these special joyful moments!
Thank you Chris & Gabby!!!
Bella is so funny, gabby telling her lay down and it took a second and then she did but the way she laid down was like a child getting mad because they didnt get what they wanted is hilarious. 😂😂😂
What an amazing place God bless you for what you're doing.
It's an awesome site to see Gabby walking Little Dude. So cute!
The Sanctuary has grown so much. And HI to Little Dude ❤

LMAOO The foxes all frozen 😅😂
Everything looks amazing & what a great space to have the Sanctuary. The property is beautiful ❤
Bella and Big Mac are such characters. Bella seemed to have listened to Gabby. It is good to see them both so healthy. I do hope Gaston issues get resolved positively. Thanks for all you do for the animals in your care.🎉🎉❤❤

Emergency cirn?😂🤣😅😂How different he is with you Gabby! Chris can't get near him😅 He's so cute!
Gabby you are fantastic on camera you sound like a natural you and Chris are both extremely good at being on camera kudos

Thank you for this great video and my respect for Chris and Gabby for this beautyfull sanctuary. Greetings from the Netherlands 🐊🐊🐊

FROM ALL HARD WORK.🎉
So brave walking dude!
Lovely update thanks for sharing ❤
Looking at a porcupine walking around is incredibly funny and weird they don’t look like they really belong on earth, so cool
I love you two !! My heart is happy when I watch how heroically you guys fight for these animals❤
So happy to see this all coming together guys keep killin it!
he definitely knows some tricks how to look bigger!
I never knew they were so big, but he's beautiful ❤
So sorry for Gaston. Hope you can help him feel better, even if only for a short time. I love Lil Dude. Glad he can spend retirement with you guys❤

Never knew porcupines could be so sweet ❤️
Hey guys you're sanctuary is coming along nice and I really enjoy your videos! The animals eat better than I do! 😂
Everything looks brilliant. What an amazing place you have 🙌
Love what you do
Oh Lil Dude is way cool. What a lucky Dude to retire there!
After following gatorchris (their vlog channel) the clips here are just that little extra on the top and means one knows the animals so much more
Porcupines are such amazing creatures.
Really weird looking, but I love them 🙏❤️
Beautiful sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hello Lil’ Dude, Hi Chris & Gabby♥️
Great video guys

Chris and Gabby, have you looked into grant writing for your enclosures?
A once in a lifetime experience, walking an African Porcupine ❤❤

I recently saw two North American tree porcupines at a safari park in England. They are so cute….still prickly but not quite as much. ❤
Lil Dude walks better than my dog. 😂
First time ive seen all the foxes just being still and not going absolutely insane lol when little dude was out lol

I feel like Chris was very focused on not being a pin cushion 😂
Hope you can get the funds to make the dreams continue to come true.
Cool

Did Dino eat the chicken he put in his mouth the other day?
Fingers crossed 🤞 for gastron 🐊🐊🐊 poor little guy I love the porcupine why do they train it to walk on one side instead of the other is it for safety reasons?
What is the vet’s explanation of Gaston’s gas retention? Just curious.

❤❤❤❤ nothing to see hear just a girl walking her porcupine ❤❤😅😅😅
I don't know... I think I'd be wearing long pants if I were walking a porcupine!
Are you guys allowed to get a gator trapper permit/license to "rescue" them?
Do you have mosquito fish in your gator ponds? I guess not if you're draining and cleaning them regularly.
What's going on with the turtle pond? ❤️😎
Are fiber glass pools an option that would work instead of concrete?
How do you keep the wood enclosures from rotting?
Your videos are amazing. I really like it. I am a new subscriber to your channel. Can I talk with you?

The DNR, Florida fish and wildlife needs to change. That's bad!😡 You should be able to help all these animals that needs help.
