WEBVTT - Ep. 574 : MeatEater Kids III

0:00:13.320 --> 0:00:15.800
<v Speaker 1>Part one why it's the way it is.

0:00:18.960 --> 0:00:22.040
<v Speaker 2>Today, we're going to talk about fish, and we're going

0:00:22.120 --> 0:00:27.280
<v Speaker 2>to talk about two different ways in which fish can

0:00:27.400 --> 0:00:30.360
<v Speaker 2>use their habitats, like the ways they can use the

0:00:30.400 --> 0:00:35.360
<v Speaker 2>places they live and how to utilize their landscape or

0:00:35.400 --> 0:00:39.959
<v Speaker 2>let's say, their waterscape in order to have their babies.

0:00:43.200 --> 0:00:45.200
<v Speaker 2>So what we're going to talk about are these these

0:00:45.320 --> 0:00:49.400
<v Speaker 2>terms that seem complicated and hard to say and hard

0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:51.720
<v Speaker 2>to spell. The two terms of this. The first one

0:00:51.760 --> 0:00:55.760
<v Speaker 2>is anadromous. Okay, I'm going to spell it for you,

0:00:55.840 --> 0:00:58.760
<v Speaker 2>so you know A N A d r O m

0:00:58.840 --> 0:01:03.880
<v Speaker 2>o u S. An adremist. An anadremus has a has

0:01:03.920 --> 0:01:11.160
<v Speaker 2>an opposite. The opposite of anagamus is catadroumous catasromus, So

0:01:11.200 --> 0:01:14.320
<v Speaker 2>that one is C A T A d r O

0:01:14.560 --> 0:01:18.399
<v Speaker 2>m o u S. We're going to start by talking

0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:21.080
<v Speaker 2>about the first one, the one that starts with an A,

0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:28.160
<v Speaker 2>which is anadromous. An anagamous fish is a fish that

0:01:28.600 --> 0:01:33.120
<v Speaker 2>lives its life out in the ocean and then goes

0:01:33.280 --> 0:01:39.520
<v Speaker 2>up a river in order to reproduce. I think the

0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:44.319
<v Speaker 2>most classic example of an anadromous fish is a salmon. Okay,

0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:47.880
<v Speaker 2>in our country, in the United States of America, we

0:01:48.080 --> 0:01:52.840
<v Speaker 2>have six kinds of salmon. There are five salmon in

0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:56.200
<v Speaker 2>the Pacific Ocean, and there's just one kind of salmon,

0:01:56.240 --> 0:01:59.280
<v Speaker 2>the Atlantic salmon, that lives in the Atlantic Ocean. If

0:01:59.280 --> 0:02:02.320
<v Speaker 2>you're curious about the five in the Pacific, I'll tell

0:02:02.320 --> 0:02:04.120
<v Speaker 2>you what they are. They all have two names, two

0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:08.280
<v Speaker 2>common names. You have king salmon, which are called chinook.

0:02:09.040 --> 0:02:14.840
<v Speaker 2>You have silver salmon, which people also call coho. You

0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:21.560
<v Speaker 2>have pink salmon, which people call humpies. You have sake salmon,

0:02:21.880 --> 0:02:26.480
<v Speaker 2>which people will call reds, and you have chum salmon,

0:02:26.760 --> 0:02:29.720
<v Speaker 2>which people will call dog salmon. So those are the

0:02:29.760 --> 0:02:33.000
<v Speaker 2>five salmon in the Pacific Ocean that go up the

0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:36.679
<v Speaker 2>rivers in our country. And there's that one salmon, the

0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:39.120
<v Speaker 2>Atlantic salmon the Atlantic Ocean. All these fish are a

0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:43.000
<v Speaker 2>nagamus fish. And here's what that means. They are born

0:02:43.080 --> 0:02:47.080
<v Speaker 2>in rivers. Okay, they're born in freshwater. So as an egg,

0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:50.480
<v Speaker 2>they're a fertilized egg. And these fertilized eggs will lay

0:02:50.520 --> 0:02:52.760
<v Speaker 2>down in the gravel on the bottom of a river,

0:02:53.400 --> 0:02:56.920
<v Speaker 2>and eventually that fertilized egg will hatch into a little

0:02:57.160 --> 0:03:00.640
<v Speaker 2>baby fish that you know it surprisingly within a few

0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:03.760
<v Speaker 2>days of hatching, you'd kind of recognize it as a

0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:09.560
<v Speaker 2>little fish. Different species of salmon, so different kinds of

0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:14.160
<v Speaker 2>salmon will spend different amounts of time in the rivers

0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:18.760
<v Speaker 2>where they hatched or were born. Pink salmon and chum

0:03:18.840 --> 0:03:22.160
<v Speaker 2>salmon will go out right away pretty quickly. They go

0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:23.840
<v Speaker 2>back out to the ocean where they're going to live

0:03:23.880 --> 0:03:27.400
<v Speaker 2>their lives. A saki salmon, which is a Pacific salmon,

0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:31.959
<v Speaker 2>a sackey salmon, will find its way to a lake,

0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:36.280
<v Speaker 2>so they're dependent on lake systems being along the rivers

0:03:36.280 --> 0:03:39.240
<v Speaker 2>where they reproduce, and they'll spend one to two years

0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:43.320
<v Speaker 2>in a lake freshwater lake before going out to the ocean.

0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:48.000
<v Speaker 2>A chinook or king salmon might spend about five months

0:03:48.080 --> 0:03:50.560
<v Speaker 2>in a freshwater river before going out to live its

0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:54.560
<v Speaker 2>life in the ocean, and a coho salmon will stand

0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:58.920
<v Speaker 2>its freshwater river for over a year. Overund the Atlantic Ocean,

0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:01.480
<v Speaker 2>the Atlantic salmon will day up and it's freshwater river

0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:06.360
<v Speaker 2>for two or three years. All of these different salmon,

0:04:06.400 --> 0:04:10.680
<v Speaker 2>all these different anadromous fish will then grow up out

0:04:10.720 --> 0:04:13.160
<v Speaker 2>in the ocean. They grow big out in the ocean.

0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:19.120
<v Speaker 2>Chinook salmon might get up to fifty pounds, sixty pounds,

0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:23.479
<v Speaker 2>seventy pounds. Coho salmon can grow up to twenty pounds

0:04:23.480 --> 0:04:26.640
<v Speaker 2>out in the ocean. Sake salmon, you know, they might

0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:29.680
<v Speaker 2>be eight to twelve pounds out in the ocean. Pinks

0:04:29.680 --> 0:04:31.440
<v Speaker 2>are a little bit smaller, but they'll go out in

0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:36.680
<v Speaker 2>the ocean until there's several pounds. Eventually the fish out

0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:40.359
<v Speaker 2>in the ocean will reach maturity. Okay, it'll get about

0:04:40.400 --> 0:04:43.200
<v Speaker 2>as big as it's going to get. And then it's

0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:46.479
<v Speaker 2>time for that fish to complete the life cycle. And

0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:49.840
<v Speaker 2>it's time for that fish to go up the river.

0:04:49.960 --> 0:04:51.839
<v Speaker 2>And they usually go up the same river to the

0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:54.880
<v Speaker 2>same place where they were born, and they travel from

0:04:54.920 --> 0:04:58.520
<v Speaker 2>the ocean back into the fresh water, and they go

0:04:58.760 --> 0:05:02.560
<v Speaker 2>up the river and they lay their eggs. The females

0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:05.360
<v Speaker 2>lay the eggs, and the males fertilize the eggs. So

0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:08.080
<v Speaker 2>they have grown big and live their lives out in

0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:11.520
<v Speaker 2>the ocean, and then they go up to complete their

0:05:11.520 --> 0:05:15.160
<v Speaker 2>life cycle and reproduce. In the case of these Pacific salmon,

0:05:15.560 --> 0:05:18.160
<v Speaker 2>when they go up to reproduce, these anagamous fish, when

0:05:18.160 --> 0:05:20.520
<v Speaker 2>they go up the river, it's the final journey they

0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:24.920
<v Speaker 2>will make. They die up that river, and Atlantic salmon

0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:28.279
<v Speaker 2>is able to go up the river and reproduce and

0:05:28.320 --> 0:05:31.200
<v Speaker 2>it will survive. It can live and go back out

0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:34.760
<v Speaker 2>into the ocean. And those are all anagamous fish. And

0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:37.440
<v Speaker 2>that's just some of the anagamous fish. Other anagamous fish

0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:41.480
<v Speaker 2>that you might have heard of. Striped bass will live

0:05:41.520 --> 0:05:43.640
<v Speaker 2>their lives out in the ocean, but they'll go up

0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:48.320
<v Speaker 2>into rivers and estuaries in order to reproduce. The American

0:05:48.440 --> 0:05:51.800
<v Speaker 2>shad is an anagamous fish. Lives its life out in

0:05:51.839 --> 0:05:56.080
<v Speaker 2>the ocean, and it'll go up into a river to reproduce,

0:05:56.160 --> 0:05:58.720
<v Speaker 2>and that's where it's born before moving back out into

0:05:58.720 --> 0:06:02.120
<v Speaker 2>the ocean. There's a thing called a sea run cutthroat trout,

0:06:02.160 --> 0:06:05.840
<v Speaker 2>So this is a cutthroat trout that lives its life

0:06:05.880 --> 0:06:09.640
<v Speaker 2>out in the ocean and goes upper river to spawn.

0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:14.480
<v Speaker 2>There are some anagamous fish that are kind of surprising

0:06:14.600 --> 0:06:18.040
<v Speaker 2>or maybe things you haven't heard of. There is a fish,

0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:22.280
<v Speaker 2>it's an eel like fish called a lamprey, and it's

0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:25.760
<v Speaker 2>what's called a jawless fish. They have little suckers on

0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:29.560
<v Speaker 2>their mouth. Lampreys will live their lives out in the

0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:31.640
<v Speaker 2>ocean when they're out in the ocean. How they survive

0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:35.960
<v Speaker 2>is they latch onto other fish and suck the juices

0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:38.360
<v Speaker 2>and bloods out of other fish, and that's what they

0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:41.520
<v Speaker 2>feed on. But when it's time for them to lay

0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:43.240
<v Speaker 2>their eggs, they're an agamus.

0:06:43.279 --> 0:06:43.440
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:45.120
<v Speaker 2>When it's time for them to lay their eggs, they

0:06:45.120 --> 0:06:49.680
<v Speaker 2>go up the rivers and reproduce. But now let's talk

0:06:49.720 --> 0:06:55.080
<v Speaker 2>about that opposite. If you remember, anadamous has an opposite.

0:06:55.120 --> 0:07:02.320
<v Speaker 2>The opposite of anadremus is catadromous fish is a fish

0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:07.000
<v Speaker 2>that lives its life up in the rivers Okay, lives

0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 2>its life in fresh water and goes out to the

0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:15.800
<v Speaker 2>ocean to reproduce. We only have on our continent, on

0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:21.400
<v Speaker 2>our continent of North America, we only have one catadromous fish.

0:07:21.960 --> 0:07:25.520
<v Speaker 2>The catatumous fish we have is called the American eel,

0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:30.640
<v Speaker 2>and American eels live in the Atlantic Ocean, so they

0:07:30.680 --> 0:07:33.520
<v Speaker 2>live on the eastern side of our country. On the

0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:37.760
<v Speaker 2>eastern coast of our country. Eels will live in the

0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:41.280
<v Speaker 2>rivers all the way up into what's called the maritime

0:07:41.360 --> 0:07:43.960
<v Speaker 2>provinces of Canada. So if you go to Maine and

0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:46.680
<v Speaker 2>go north to Maine, those parts of Canada and north

0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:51.520
<v Speaker 2>of Maine, they'll be called the maritime provinces. Those areas

0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:55.000
<v Speaker 2>have American eels. And then American eels live all down

0:07:55.080 --> 0:07:58.480
<v Speaker 2>the Eastern coast. So you go from Maine down into

0:07:58.600 --> 0:08:03.880
<v Speaker 2>New York, and you keep going down to Virginia, North Carolina, Florida. Okay,

0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:09.880
<v Speaker 2>all that is American eel territory. The Caribbean Islands, so Cuba,

0:08:10.000 --> 0:08:13.520
<v Speaker 2>Puerto Rico, and on and on, they all have American eels.

0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:17.400
<v Speaker 2>There's that little part of South America, what would be

0:08:17.480 --> 0:08:21.280
<v Speaker 2>the north east portion of South America that forms kind

0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:24.800
<v Speaker 2>of the bottom of the Caribbean Ocean or the southwest

0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:28.520
<v Speaker 2>part of the Caribbean Ocean. They have American eels there.

0:08:28.960 --> 0:08:32.160
<v Speaker 2>So it's a huge area that these eels all exist in,

0:08:32.280 --> 0:08:36.120
<v Speaker 2>but we call them American eels. They are again a

0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:41.720
<v Speaker 2>catagumous fish. So these eels are born out in the

0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Atlantic Ocean. There's an area called the Sargasso Sea, and

0:08:45.920 --> 0:08:49.280
<v Speaker 2>it seems like all the eels from all those places

0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:51.920
<v Speaker 2>I described, it seems that they all go to the

0:08:52.000 --> 0:08:56.319
<v Speaker 2>Sargasso Sea to reproduce and when their babies hatch, their

0:08:56.320 --> 0:09:00.400
<v Speaker 2>babies just little larva and these larva are just first

0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:03.000
<v Speaker 2>by the ocean's currents. They're not at first, they're not

0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:07.319
<v Speaker 2>able to move themselves. They can't swim. They're just dispersed

0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:10.640
<v Speaker 2>all over the place by ocean currents, by just waves

0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:13.960
<v Speaker 2>and wind and currents pushing them around. And they get

0:09:13.960 --> 0:09:17.240
<v Speaker 2>dispersed and they start to grow a little bit bigger,

0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:19.800
<v Speaker 2>and they'll turn into a thing called an elver or

0:09:19.840 --> 0:09:24.000
<v Speaker 2>a thing called a glass eel. And these eels will

0:09:24.040 --> 0:09:27.080
<v Speaker 2>start picking their way up rivers, so the same way

0:09:27.120 --> 0:09:30.679
<v Speaker 2>that salmon babies will start making their way down rivers,

0:09:30.679 --> 0:09:32.920
<v Speaker 2>because they're going to go live their lives in the ocean.

0:09:33.000 --> 0:09:35.200
<v Speaker 2>They're going to mature and become adults in the ocean.

0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:40.840
<v Speaker 2>These eels start making their way up rivers where they

0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:43.240
<v Speaker 2>travel up, up, up. They can stay in the big

0:09:43.280 --> 0:09:46.120
<v Speaker 2>parts of the rivers, they can stand in estuaries near

0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:49.199
<v Speaker 2>the ocean. They can go way up rivers and enter

0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:54.040
<v Speaker 2>little creeks and ditches and marshes. They can go anywhere,

0:09:54.040 --> 0:09:56.080
<v Speaker 2>and they'll live their whole lives up in the fresh

0:09:56.080 --> 0:10:00.120
<v Speaker 2>water up in these rivers, creeks and marshes. And then

0:10:00.280 --> 0:10:04.280
<v Speaker 2>later when they reach sexual maturity, they will do their

0:10:04.480 --> 0:10:09.920
<v Speaker 2>migration and their migration is down river. So in a

0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:11.839
<v Speaker 2>lot of parts of their range, a lot of places

0:10:11.840 --> 0:10:14.960
<v Speaker 2>where they live, they will wait till late summer and

0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:19.959
<v Speaker 2>they will migrate down river. They will travel across the

0:10:19.960 --> 0:10:23.280
<v Speaker 2>ocean to the place where they all meet up to reproduce,

0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:27.200
<v Speaker 2>and those eels will reproduce and they will die and

0:10:27.240 --> 0:10:32.319
<v Speaker 2>their babies will repeat that journey. So again, the American

0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:37.160
<v Speaker 2>eel as a catasumous fish. And there are lots of

0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:41.240
<v Speaker 2>anagamous fish, but the most obvious examples that all of

0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:46.240
<v Speaker 2>us have heard about are salmon. Salmon are anagamous. The

0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:48.679
<v Speaker 2>American eel is catatromous.

0:10:56.960 --> 0:10:59.240
<v Speaker 4>Part two, Guess that critter.

0:11:00.320 --> 0:11:03.480
<v Speaker 5>It's time for Guess that critter. Where we play animal sounds,

0:11:03.520 --> 0:11:06.199
<v Speaker 5>and you've got to guess what animal is making those sounds.

0:11:06.520 --> 0:11:09.080
<v Speaker 5>You'll learn some neat facts about these animals and develop

0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:11.560
<v Speaker 5>your ear to better identify their sounds in the wild

0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:14.840
<v Speaker 5>or in this case, maybe in your attic too. And

0:11:14.920 --> 0:11:18.040
<v Speaker 5>don't worry, we'll throw in some clues along the way. Now,

0:11:18.280 --> 0:11:31.360
<v Speaker 5>listen closely, because these predatory birds are highly active during twilight,

0:11:31.679 --> 0:11:35.040
<v Speaker 5>meaning they're crepuscular. They're more likely to be seen and

0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:38.800
<v Speaker 5>heard making their signature call at dusk and dawn. Both

0:11:38.840 --> 0:11:41.880
<v Speaker 5>males and females make this call, although the male's call

0:11:42.120 --> 0:11:45.800
<v Speaker 5>is slightly lower in pitch. The call has different meanings

0:11:45.840 --> 0:11:48.880
<v Speaker 5>from marking territory to announcing the presence of a predator.

0:11:56.520 --> 0:11:59.000
<v Speaker 5>If you're out in thick woods or swampy areas, you

0:11:59.080 --> 0:12:02.720
<v Speaker 5>might observe them in mature trees using hollow cavities at

0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:06.120
<v Speaker 5>least sixteen feet off the ground, usually cavities that were

0:12:06.120 --> 0:12:10.240
<v Speaker 5>abandoned by other creatures such as squirrels or raccoons. Or

0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:13.920
<v Speaker 5>you might spot them swooping up prey anything from rodents

0:12:14.000 --> 0:12:19.880
<v Speaker 5>like mice to rabbits and opossums, as well as other birds, frogs, lizards, snakes, fish, crabs,

0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:24.280
<v Speaker 5>and even some insects. These birds are monogamous, meaning a

0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:27.559
<v Speaker 5>pair mates for life, but they don't necessarily stay together

0:12:27.600 --> 0:12:30.520
<v Speaker 5>when not raising young. This is the sound of a

0:12:30.600 --> 0:12:33.920
<v Speaker 5>male and female together in courtship, which you're likely to

0:12:33.920 --> 0:12:37.120
<v Speaker 5>hear during the breeding season that runs from December through March.

0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:51.720
<v Speaker 5>Now here's some rocous duetting. A Meat Eater podcast listener

0:12:51.760 --> 0:12:55.160
<v Speaker 5>sent us this audio from Connecticut. It's likely two separate

0:12:55.200 --> 0:12:58.360
<v Speaker 5>pairs facing off at the boundary of their territories. These

0:12:58.440 --> 0:13:01.559
<v Speaker 5>critters are very territory, especially when they're taking care of

0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:23.000
<v Speaker 5>their babies. Here are some babies calling to their parents.

0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:38.760
<v Speaker 5>Sh Okay, it's time for the reveal. It's a barred owl,

0:13:39.040 --> 0:13:43.040
<v Speaker 5>otherwise known as a hoot owl. The barred owl's signature

0:13:43.080 --> 0:13:45.920
<v Speaker 5>hood of eight or nine notes sounds like who cooks

0:13:45.960 --> 0:13:50.079
<v Speaker 5>for you? Who cooks for you all. Historically, their range

0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:54.000
<v Speaker 5>spanned across forested country in eastern North America, but the

0:13:54.040 --> 0:13:58.160
<v Speaker 5>owls have been steadily expanding their range westward. One interesting

0:13:58.200 --> 0:14:00.400
<v Speaker 5>thing about bard owls is that they don't seem to

0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:03.480
<v Speaker 5>mind humans, and at times even appear to demonstrate an

0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:07.280
<v Speaker 5>interest in humans and human structures. Their tolerance for people

0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:09.360
<v Speaker 5>could help explain why they're turning up in more and

0:14:09.440 --> 0:14:13.520
<v Speaker 5>more places as increased human development displaces other species of

0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:17.199
<v Speaker 5>owls that are more shy. Oh, and here's one last thing.

0:14:17.760 --> 0:14:20.400
<v Speaker 5>There's a tradition of turkey hunters using the barred owls

0:14:20.440 --> 0:14:22.720
<v Speaker 5>call to get a shock gobble from a turkey to

0:14:22.760 --> 0:14:26.080
<v Speaker 5>determine its location. Why don't you give it a try?

0:14:27.560 --> 0:14:32.720
<v Speaker 3>Part three trivia And now it's time for meat eater

0:14:32.880 --> 0:14:33.600
<v Speaker 3>kids trivia.

0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:37.440
<v Speaker 1>The other only game show where conservation always wins. This

0:14:37.480 --> 0:14:39.960
<v Speaker 1>is a quiz show for kids who love the outdoors.

0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Take it away, Spencer.

0:14:43.200 --> 0:14:48.080
<v Speaker 4>Today, I'm joined by Jimmy, Rosie, matthew ain, A, Mabel, Hayden, Conley, Reid,

0:14:48.160 --> 0:14:51.640
<v Speaker 4>and Bay. Each player will earn ten dollars for conservation

0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:54.440
<v Speaker 4>with every question they get right today. There's a potential

0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:56.640
<v Speaker 4>for this room to earn up to two hundred and

0:14:56.640 --> 0:14:59.720
<v Speaker 4>seventy dollars this week. That donation is going to the

0:14:59.800 --> 0:15:03.080
<v Speaker 4>Land and Access Initiative, which provides more access to public

0:15:03.160 --> 0:15:06.840
<v Speaker 4>lands for hunting, fishing, hiking, camping, swimming, and whatever else

0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:09.440
<v Speaker 4>you like to do outdoors. Let's see how much money

0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:13.680
<v Speaker 4>our players can raise. Question one, Which of these animals

0:15:13.880 --> 0:15:18.600
<v Speaker 4>would not be found in Lake Erie? Is it alligator, Canada,

0:15:18.640 --> 0:15:25.160
<v Speaker 4>goose or largemouth bass? Which of these animals would not

0:15:25.280 --> 0:15:31.640
<v Speaker 4>be found in Lake Erie? Alligator, Canada, goose or largemouth bass?

0:15:33.520 --> 0:15:38.440
<v Speaker 4>Pretty quick answers? Jimmy, you got this one right, Yes, sir?

0:15:39.200 --> 0:15:40.680
<v Speaker 4>How about Mabel? You got this one right?

0:15:40.840 --> 0:15:41.280
<v Speaker 2>I think so?

0:15:41.520 --> 0:15:41.800
<v Speaker 5>Okay?

0:15:42.680 --> 0:15:45.440
<v Speaker 4>Alligator, Canada, goose, largemouth bass? Is everybody ready?

0:15:45.680 --> 0:15:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

0:15:46.000 --> 0:15:46.160
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:15:46.240 --> 0:15:49.240
<v Speaker 4>Quick to answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers.

0:15:49.320 --> 0:15:53.440
<v Speaker 3>Aina alligator, Rosie alligator, Bye largemouth.

0:15:52.920 --> 0:15:54.880
<v Speaker 4>Bass, Mabel alligator.

0:15:54.440 --> 0:15:58.360
<v Speaker 3>Jimmy alligator, read alligator, Matthew alligator.

0:15:57.960 --> 0:16:05.320
<v Speaker 4>Conley Hayden alligator. The correct answer is alligator. A few

0:16:05.400 --> 0:16:09.640
<v Speaker 4>folks got it right. The closest alligator habitat to Lake

0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:12.600
<v Speaker 4>Erie is about four hundred and fifty miles to the

0:16:12.720 --> 0:16:16.360
<v Speaker 4>south in North Carolina. Gators can survive and water down

0:16:16.400 --> 0:16:19.720
<v Speaker 4>to about forty degrees fahrenheit, so they wouldn't like Lake

0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:22.320
<v Speaker 4>Erie anyway. Have you ever seen a gator?

0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:23.760
<v Speaker 1>Yes?

0:16:23.800 --> 0:16:27.800
<v Speaker 4>Where'd you see a gator at Louisiana? Okay? I heard

0:16:27.800 --> 0:16:30.800
<v Speaker 4>that the Putellis family is going to North Carolina. Are

0:16:30.800 --> 0:16:33.280
<v Speaker 4>there gators in North Carolina? I don't know.

0:16:33.680 --> 0:16:35.800
<v Speaker 2>You just said they were, did I?

0:16:36.160 --> 0:16:36.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

0:16:36.480 --> 0:16:40.160
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I literally just said that there are gators in

0:16:40.200 --> 0:16:45.040
<v Speaker 4>North Carolina. Good point, Mabel, the student has become the teacher.

0:16:45.320 --> 0:16:47.920
<v Speaker 4>I was just testing you guys, actually, and you passed.

0:16:48.160 --> 0:16:48.680
<v Speaker 2>Sure you were.

0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:52.920
<v Speaker 4>I was making sure everyone's listening. Question two, how often

0:16:53.200 --> 0:16:56.160
<v Speaker 4>is there a full moon? Is it every ten days,

0:16:56.600 --> 0:17:03.000
<v Speaker 4>every twenty days, or every thirty days? We got speed

0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:05.440
<v Speaker 4>answers in the room. I think they know this one.

0:17:06.520 --> 0:17:10.159
<v Speaker 4>How often is there a full moon? Every ten days,

0:17:10.720 --> 0:17:15.720
<v Speaker 4>every twenty days, every thirty days, Jimmy and Mabel giving

0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:18.040
<v Speaker 4>each other a thumbs up. You guys like each other's answer.

0:17:18.400 --> 0:17:19.520
<v Speaker 5>No, I wasn't doing about that.

0:17:19.560 --> 0:17:21.280
<v Speaker 3>I was just saying for correcting, you know, I thought

0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:21.879
<v Speaker 3>that was funny.

0:17:21.920 --> 0:17:25.480
<v Speaker 4>Oh okay. Your dad has a similar attitude.

0:17:25.720 --> 0:17:25.959
<v Speaker 3>I think.

0:17:26.200 --> 0:17:28.600
<v Speaker 4>I think it's it brings him more joy than like

0:17:28.680 --> 0:17:31.080
<v Speaker 4>watching you kids grow up. If your dad can get

0:17:31.080 --> 0:17:35.359
<v Speaker 4>one over on me, he's just giddy. Does everybody have

0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:41.160
<v Speaker 4>an answer? Yes, go ahead and reveal your answers. Aina thirty,

0:17:41.400 --> 0:17:47.320
<v Speaker 4>Rosie uh twenty, Bay twenty, Mabel thirty, Jimmy thirty, Read thirty,

0:17:47.400 --> 0:17:54.320
<v Speaker 4>Matthew twenty, Conley thirty, Hayden thirty. The correct answer is

0:17:54.480 --> 0:17:58.600
<v Speaker 4>every thirty days. Some of you got it right. I

0:17:58.640 --> 0:18:00.360
<v Speaker 4>think we had every answer reper ended.

0:18:00.400 --> 0:18:00.600
<v Speaker 5>Though.

0:18:00.840 --> 0:18:03.800
<v Speaker 4>Full moons come around every twenty nine point five days,

0:18:03.800 --> 0:18:06.359
<v Speaker 4>so about once a month. A blue moon is the

0:18:06.480 --> 0:18:09.800
<v Speaker 4>second full moon in a month where there's two full moons.

0:18:10.000 --> 0:18:12.840
<v Speaker 4>Because February is only twenty eight or twenty nine days,

0:18:12.960 --> 0:18:15.840
<v Speaker 4>it never has a blue moon. Sometimes it actually has

0:18:15.880 --> 0:18:18.520
<v Speaker 4>a black moon, which is when there's no full moon

0:18:18.840 --> 0:18:21.119
<v Speaker 4>in the whole month. Have any guys ever heard the

0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:24.040
<v Speaker 4>saying about once in a blue moon? Yes, do you

0:18:24.040 --> 0:18:24.680
<v Speaker 4>know what that means?

0:18:25.560 --> 0:18:26.200
<v Speaker 5>No?

0:18:26.200 --> 0:18:29.919
<v Speaker 4>No, please take a gift? Yeah, yeah, exactly, be like uh,

0:18:30.280 --> 0:18:33.640
<v Speaker 4>Steve Vernella wins trivia once in a blue moon. That'd

0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:38.959
<v Speaker 4>be an example of something very rare that happens. Scoreboard Buddy,

0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:43.200
<v Speaker 4>question that's right, question three? Thank you Matthew. This next

0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:45.560
<v Speaker 4>great question comes via Joe Walcott. If you have a

0:18:45.600 --> 0:18:47.760
<v Speaker 4>question you think is right for Meat Eater Kids Trivia,

0:18:47.840 --> 0:18:50.600
<v Speaker 4>send it to Kids Trivia at the meadeater dot com.

<v Speaker 4>a cougar, or a turkey? What kind of animal is

0:19:00.440 --> 0:19:05.680
<v Speaker 4>a puma, shark, cougar, turkey? This is maybe the most

0:19:05.680 --> 0:19:09.000
<v Speaker 4>confident I've seen the room. We may have a perfect

0:19:09.640 --> 0:19:13.440
<v Speaker 4>score among us. Conley, you got this one right, Yeah,

0:19:13.560 --> 0:19:14.800
<v Speaker 4>you know this one for sure.

0:19:15.000 --> 0:19:16.280
<v Speaker 2>I know this one for sure.

0:19:16.400 --> 0:19:20.240
<v Speaker 4>Okay, counting on you bet you got this one right.

0:19:20.480 --> 0:19:22.800
<v Speaker 4>I got this seem to like your answer. How about Reid,

0:19:22.880 --> 0:19:23.680
<v Speaker 4>you got this one right?

0:19:23.840 --> 0:19:24.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

0:19:24.240 --> 0:19:24.720
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:19:25.080 --> 0:19:28.280
<v Speaker 4>Our players think that they are going to have ninety

0:19:28.359 --> 0:19:32.240
<v Speaker 4>dollars for sure on this answer. It's everybody ready, yes,

0:19:32.600 --> 0:19:34.120
<v Speaker 4>go ahead and reveal your answers.

0:19:34.359 --> 0:19:39.800
<v Speaker 3>We have any saying cougar, Rosie Bee cougar, Mabel cougar,

0:19:39.960 --> 0:19:44.760
<v Speaker 3>Jimmy cougar, Reid cougar, Matthew cougar, Conley cougar, Hayden cougar.

0:19:44.840 --> 0:19:47.359
<v Speaker 4>They got it. The correct answer is cougar. That's the

0:19:47.400 --> 0:19:50.480
<v Speaker 4>first time we've ever had all of our players get

0:19:50.520 --> 0:19:54.199
<v Speaker 4>the right answer. Cougar's actually hold the Guinness World Record

0:19:54.280 --> 0:19:57.320
<v Speaker 4>for most nicknames for an animal. They say it has

0:19:57.400 --> 0:20:02.760
<v Speaker 4>over forty nicknames, including mountain lion, panther, catamount painter, and

0:20:02.920 --> 0:20:09.359
<v Speaker 4>deer tiger. What do you guys like to call mountain line?

0:20:09.520 --> 0:20:12.680
<v Speaker 4>No idea mountain line. Mountain line seems to be the consensus.

0:20:12.720 --> 0:20:13.840
<v Speaker 4>A few of you like Puma.

0:20:14.640 --> 0:20:17.360
<v Speaker 2>I think there's a company named Puma.

0:20:17.640 --> 0:20:22.880
<v Speaker 4>You're exactly right, Phil. That's it for today's round of trivia.

0:20:22.920 --> 0:20:24.320
<v Speaker 4>How much money did we raise?

0:20:24.480 --> 0:20:26.440
<v Speaker 1>They raised two hundred twenty dollars.

0:20:28.680 --> 0:20:30.920
<v Speaker 5>For of the max.

0:20:31.280 --> 0:20:33.800
