Coelacanth 🦶🐟​ #animation #original #cartoon

The coelacanth (Latimeria chalumnae) gives birth to live young and retains fertilized eggs in its body for five years—1.5 years longer than the frilled shark's (Chlamydoselachus anguineus) gestation period.

Why does this feel so calm to me? Her voice is so soothing for some reason lol

[dvilyssins]

I'm currently studying to become a marine biologist, and I absolutely love your videos! Very informative while also being adorable and funny!

5 YEARS PREGNANT SHEESH.

I never knew that coelacanths were like that. I know they've been unchanged for at least 420 million years (old enough to have near identical fossils around the period where fish were beginning to be in abundance BEFORE MOST COMMON DINOSAURS.)

I wonder how they survived with such a long pregnancy?

Edit: I mean relatively unchanged.

Yes there are some differences from fossils, but compared to most species that change drastically in such a large timeframe, the coelacanth's differences are microscopic in comparison to the average species evolution.

The fact she’s still so excited to be a mom even though she’s been waiting 4 years just to give birth is crazy

[invadersickness]

The little fish's expression changing when she said she was four years pregnant was so cute.

[scarlettefoxx]

She's so happy when she says its her first pregnancy 😊

Coelacanths are amazing! They’re like living fossils! A real blast from the past, if you will.

[VeryNormal_NormalPerson]

I want this to be a reoccurring character! Maybe a video in the past with the coelacanth talking to an extinct animal? That would be so cool!

[SchrödingerKousae]

I hear "4 years pregnant" and my brain sounds like a jet engine slowly spooling up before I audibly say "FOUR YEARS?!"

[pinkdogroslyn]

That happy momma coelacanth is so adorable

[nyotamwuaji]

Fun fact: these were thought to be extinct until someone accidentally caught one while fishing

[joserosario]

Why is this strangely wholesome I really love the way how this is also kind of a slice of life thing and I absolutely love it and the coelacanth is give me major lady rainicorn vibes

COELACANTH MY THE HIDE N SEEK WORLD CHAMPION OF 65.5 MILLION YEARS!!!! <3

[everlastsmiles]

A whole 5 years of pregnancy?? That's wild to me tbh, and I thought elephants having a 2 year gestation period was a lot 🤯

[Nerd_in_the-matrix]

I love coelacanths, they're one of my favourite fish
Also the coelacanth was around to say hi to the first trees, these animations are awesome

[sherlocksmuuug]

Coelacanth's are such wild animals. Apart from the 5 year pregnancy, they can live for 100 years and only reach maturity at around 55.

[asneakylawngnome]

I love how you can make some of the most horrifying sea creatures so wholesome!

[thebstking]

Although it is impressive but is so adorable as she says "this is my first pregnancy" 🥺

[lauracamilacastellanos]

Their voices and music are so relaxing 🥺

[chocobanana]

Your video really help me. I kind of have problem with fish (scared just by looking at it ) but now i started to get information of fish by your animation
