Man I was in the middle of watching the video and you removed, was so sad about it but now it's back 😂

Naming a snake after an actor who's constantly slithering into very young women's DMs is just poetry to me.

I’d like to mention Tursiops erebennus, bottlenose dolphins once thought to be the common species along the east coast of the US now identified as a unique species due to their bone structure. It’s a worthwhile mention!

[nicoishere]

super awesome to see new gecko species popping up left and right! as someone who raises crested geckos, i know how elusive and hard to find those little guys can be, hopefully these new species will be looked after and put under protection laws to ensure their safety ^u^

[gyalsnextman]

I think it’s insane we’re still discovering species.

[peterashby-saracen]

Absolutely marvellous! The incredible diversity of the fauna ands flora we are familiar is stunning enough and these newly discovered species are truly breathtaking. This just emphasises yet again how vital it is to protect what ecosystems we have left. Who knows what is still out there waiting to be discovered?

[redx]

Ahh yes the 2023 patch has finally dropped.

[MattBrooks]

These pop culture references in species names really bug me because I feel like they will become dated and are overall just a little bit corny.

[yeahokbuddy]

Hey man I love your work !!! Keep it up 👍🏻 just found your channel and absolutely love it

[MuertaRara]

When the red crab spider was shown I gasped! What a beautiful creature ♡

[PrinzessinSchuhkarton]

More birds and pre-modern mammals please 🥰 love your content!!

[SparkieGoth]

So pleased that more spiders have been discovered. These beautiful, misunderstood creatures are vital to our ecosystem and to human survival.

Harrison Ford's Slender Snake, I found that wonderful and ironic at the same time. As Indiana Jones, Ford states, "I hate snakes!" Well done video, informative and interesting. Subscribed.

[awesomebinj]

I have never seen Leonardo DeCaprio or Harrison Ford talk about animals

[Mrguy]

Man this guy his voice is so nice to listening to. Love your videos ❤❤

[Chamuzi]

Awesome video, one of my favourites since I found your channel a month ago.

[LadyCoyKoi]

Kodama Jujutsu has got to be the coolest sounding name for a squid. I love it already!

[rusnikfromtranscarpathia]

Lol Harrison Ford must have said 'snake, why did it have to be a snake?!' lol
