No, I've also not seen Oppenheimer. I'm planning 46 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 1: actually to turn this into a bit of a Barbenheimer. 47 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,519 Speaker 1: Not this episode, but next episode I will talk about 48 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: explosive animals, so get ready for that. But yes, so 49 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: there will be no Barbie movie spoilers in this simply 50 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: because I cannot because I do not know any spoilers. 51 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 1: We're just talking about how pink is an underrated color 52 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: in the animal kingdom. 53 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know of a lot of pink animals. 54 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 2: I guess. I guess a flamingo jumps to mind. Yeah 55 00:02:58,880 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 2: about it? 56 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 1: Who were not talking about? Because that one's too obvious. 57 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: So we are talking about animals that I'm hoping, well, 58 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: you may have heard of a few of these, but 59 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: I'm hoping some of them are at least new to you. 60 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: So first, Alex, did you know if there is a 61 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: tiny pink polka dotted horse that lives under the sea? 62 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 2: No? That should that should have been the third movie 63 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 2: in the triple feature. 64 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: Here we go, you know, Yes, so there is a 65 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: teeny tiny polka dot pink polka dot uh, teeny weeny 66 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: sea horse called the Pigmy Sea Horse. And just look 67 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: at this thing? 68 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 2: So cute it does? It has like a baby horse face. Ye, 69 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 2: if that makes sense, which is extra cute, very into it. 70 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: It looks like my little pony version of a sea horse. 71 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: It's very very cute. 72 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 4: Uh. 73 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: It is found in Southeast Asia, in the Coral Triangle area. 74 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: And there are actually a few species of pygmy sea horses, 75 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: all very tiny, all very cute, and some of them 76 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: are pink. And they are about half an inch to 77 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: an inch long or about fifteen to twenty five millimeters. 78 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: Because they're so tiny inchnackable, they like to mimic the 79 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: color and texture of the coral that they hide in. 80 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: So when you look at a thing of coral, you 81 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: may not be able to see these little guys, but 82 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: they're in there, hidden away secretly. 83 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 2: Even just the location the Coral Triangle is cute. I've 84 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 2: never heard of that. Great. It sounds like it contains 85 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 2: literally my little pony. Great, yeah, really good. 86 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: It made up cartoon city for a little cartoon my 87 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 1: little sea horse. And yeah, but they are so cute. 88 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: They're very pink. They have these pink, bulbous polka dot 89 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: So when I say polka dots, they're actually three dimensional 90 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 1: polka dots because they're kind of bulbous, which helps them 91 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: fit in with this coral that is very it's very bulbous, 92 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: it's pink. But interestingly, some of these species of pigmy 93 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: seahorses actually will change their color based on the coral 94 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 1: that they live on. So a young pigmy seahorse will 95 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: settle on some coral, it will sense the color of 96 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: the coral, and over a few days they will alter 97 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 1: their color and their texture to match the coral. So 98 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: this means that the same species can come in a 99 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: range of colors from red to orange to yellow to pink. 100 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 2: So, oh man, there's a whole like rainbow of them. 101 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 2: This the most forget a triple feature. I just want 102 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 2: to see this movie instead of either of the famous ones. Right, 103 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 2: come on? Even even the three dimensional polka dots look 104 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 2: like the candy dots, which I've mostly had in movie theaters. 105 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 1: Yeah they're so cool. 106 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. 107 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 1: So, there are actually specialized pigment cells on their skin 108 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: called chromatophores that allow them to change color. And it's 109 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: not like an instant change. You know. Have you seen 110 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: maybe octopus or cuttlefish be able to very quickly change 111 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: their color. These are not that quick. It takes a 112 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: few days for it to change color, but still it's 113 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 1: really really interesting. And those bumpy, little like candy dot 114 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: looking things are actually called tubercules, which sounds less appealing 115 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: than candy dots, but yeah, they are fleshy projections that 116 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: grow on their skin. And when you look at coral 117 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: and you try to find these little guys, if you're 118 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: not zoomed in on it, it is very difficult. They 119 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: are very good at camouflage. 120 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 2: Good for them. I expect nothing less from my favorite 121 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 2: tiny sea horses. And if people though know, I'm mostly 122 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 2: repulsed by most sea creatures, and I like this one. 123 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 2: You know what I mean. This is a very cute 124 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 2: sea creature. 125 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: I found the friendliest looking sea creature that I could. 126 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 2: For you, Alex, I appreciate it. 127 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, speaking of friendly creachy creachies, friendly creaties, spiders. I 128 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: like spiders. I think they're cute. Most people, well, I 129 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: don't know. I guess I don't know how many people 130 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: don't think they're cute. I would assume most. But maybe 131 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: maybe the world's turning around on spiders. Maybe we've got 132 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: a spider revolution. But I want to talk about a 133 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: spider who is so fashionable, very Barbie very pink and 134 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: likes to match its outfit with flowers. 135 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 2: Oh fantastic. That okay, Yeah, humans can't be the only ones. 136 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 2: No makes sense. 137 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 1: Look, humans love flowers, but so do so many other animals, 138 00:07:54,160 --> 00:08:00,040 Speaker 1: and they also like to match their fashion with flowers. So. 139 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: Tamysis onustus is a spider also known as a crab 140 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: spider or flower crab spider, found in Eurasia. It's pretty small. 141 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: It's only about seven to eleven millimeters, which is under 142 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: half an inch big. So if you're scared of spiders, 143 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: this is a this is a. 144 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 3: Little one, not. 145 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 5: Menacing. 146 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 2: I have I have a creative note for this species, yes, 147 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 2: which is flower crab spider, much stronger than crab spider. 148 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 2: Just switch to that, like it's are you kind of 149 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 2: broke up? It's like dropping the the off of Facebook, Like, 150 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 2: just switch to flower crab spider. Don't don't leave that 151 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 2: crab spider branding laying around as an option. Flower crab 152 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 2: is one hundred times nicer and more marketable. That's my 153 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 2: note in this, like Silicon Valley Cafe or whatever. I'm 154 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 2: justin Timberlake in the movie The Social Network. Now, yeh, 155 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 2: add the flower instead of drop the. 156 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: Flower crab spider. Yeah, it is, thank you for marketing. 157 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: This kind of the most important part of this spiders. 158 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: I think spiders do just need more marketing and fewer 159 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 1: people would be afraid of them. So flower crab spiders. 160 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 2: Crab spiders sounds like just one hundred stabby points. Yeah, 161 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 2: the flower crab spider. It sounds like a lady with 162 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 2: an orchid in her hair. You know, way better. 163 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: You know, It's funny because like, crab spiders are actually 164 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: typically very pretty, very beautiful. There's in I don't know, 165 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: I find find them quite appealing. They're they're not nearly 166 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 1: as menacing as you would think that they are. So, yeah, 167 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: they are found in Eurasia. They actually live in a 168 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: symbiotic relationship with flowers, so they will feed on insects 169 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 1: that can harm the flower. They also benefit from the 170 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: flower because the flower attracts insects and this spider crab, sorry, 171 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: this crab spider can actually eat those insects, and if 172 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: they can't find any insects to eat, they can sip 173 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 1: on the nectar of the flowers. So they benefit the 174 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: flower by protecting it, and the flower benefits them by 175 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 1: providing them with food, and just like the pygmy seahorse 176 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 1: that we talked about earlier, they can detect the color 177 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: of the flower that they've chosen as their home, and 178 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: over the course of a few days, they can actually 179 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:19,559 Speaker 1: change their color to match the flower. So it is amazing. 180 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: So this also means that this species can come in 181 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:27,199 Speaker 1: a variety of different colors, from pink to yellow, to 182 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:31,439 Speaker 1: kind of orange colors to sort of purple colors. But yeah, 183 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: a lot of them are pink because there are a 184 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: lot of pink flowers. 185 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 2: That's and that's so Barbie to me, Like not just 186 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 2: being pink, but making the active choice of pink and 187 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 2: selecting it and making it your thing. That's very very Barbie. 188 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 2: Good job. 189 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very Barbie, very Barbie. I having not seen 190 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: the Barbie movie, I assume the conclusion is that we 191 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: should all be wearing pink, and I think that is 192 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,439 Speaker 1: what Greta Garowig is probably aiming for. That, like, pink 193 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: is a great color that we should all choose to wear. 194 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, she's taken aside in the I don't know Pantone 195 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 2: Wars or paint story decisions. I don't know where these 196 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 2: color fights are happening, but I have in favor of 197 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 2: her taking a stand. 198 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,439 Speaker 1: Very brave, just full on fist fights in the paint 199 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: aisle of lows. 200 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:23,559 Speaker 2: Yeah. 201 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: So, not only can they change the pigmentation and structure 202 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: of their cells to change their color in a way 203 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:34,199 Speaker 1: that is visible to humans, they can also change the 204 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: ultraviolet light that they reflect to match their flower. Thus 205 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: they are actually camouflaged for birds and other insects that 206 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: see UV lights. 207 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 3: So they have. 208 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 1: Completely matched their flower both in the visible spectrum for 209 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:53,559 Speaker 1: humans and the UV spectrum for birds and other insects. 210 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: And this is very important because they don't want to 211 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 1: get eaten by birds and they want to eat insects, 212 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: so being invisible to birds and insects provides them both 213 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 1: with protection and the ability to ambush an unsuspecting bug 214 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: who comes to a flower thinking it's gonna get a 215 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: nice snack but then becomes a snack. 216 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, this okay, So it does have the powers 217 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 2: of the movie character the Predator. Yes, which has always 218 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,199 Speaker 2: needed a Barbie extension. We have all felt, We've all 219 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 2: known this, Why fight alien when you can fight or 220 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 2: team up with Barbie? And I think I think we 221 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 2: finally achieved it. 222 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 3: Here. 223 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: Gosh, a pink predator would look so fly. I love that. 224 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: I really love that for him. Yeah, her, I'm not 225 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: sure I guess them. I don't. I don't want to 226 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: the predator. It's never explicitly said what gender the predator is, 227 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: but yes, I love that for the predator. 228 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 2: Right, the predator is a spectrum. We all know this. 229 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: Oh man, a pink A pink predator would be just 230 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: so boss. I love that. So we're going to take 231 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: a quick break and when we return, we are going 232 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: to talk about an animal who is pink. Seems like 233 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: it comes straight from a Lisa Frank notebook, but it's 234 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 1: incredibly metal. 235 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 3: We'll be right back. 236 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 1: So we are back, and uh, do you remember Lisa 237 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 1: Frank and all of those colorful notebooks back?

I'm happy to claim all the 252 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: colorful animals and keep them for myself. 253 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 2: It's a big win for girls. 254 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:17,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, exactly, Like only girls like ponies and dolphins. 255 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: It's like, dude, we get horses and dolphins.

Okay, thank you, take cookies. 259 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. So there is actually, in reality a pink dolphin, 260 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: and not just one pink dolphin, but a whole species 261 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: of pink dolphins. 262 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 2: Wow. Okay, oh yeah, I'm seeing the picture here. Wow, yep, 263 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 2: it's just pink. Yeah. 264 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: It turns out that Lisa Frank is not making up 265 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: pink dolphins. Pink dolphins exist. These are the Amazon River 266 00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: dolphins found of course, can you guess. 267 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 2: Where Amazon River dolphins. Let's say the Amazon River, Alex, 268 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 2: you're so smart. 269 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 1: Yes, they are found in the Amazon River. They grow 270 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 1: to become pink as they mature into adults. Males are 271 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: pinker than females. Take that status quo, the idea that 272 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 1: pink is a girl color and not a boy colored. 273 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: Dolphins do not see it that way. Pink is very 274 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 1: much more of a Females do get a little pink 275 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 1: on them, but males are far more pink. 276 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 2: That I know. We were joking about where is it 277 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 2: located with the Amazon River, but I still kind of 278 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 2: wanted to say, Miami. This is a Miami energy. To me, 279 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 2: it's in the water. It's bold, it's just out there 280 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 2: being itself. It feels like the opposite of camouflage somehow. 281 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's great, Yeah, no, it is. 282 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 2: It has real speedboat energy. You know, it's good. 283 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: It does definitely look like an inflatable pool toy, but 284 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: it's a you know, it's not a friendly inflatable pool 285 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: toy because the reason that their pink is actually very 286 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 1: metal as their skin is worn down, so they actually 287 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: start out gray when their babies, when they're juveniles, they're gray, 288 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: but as they get a number of abrasions through kind 289 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: of knocking around, rough housing, even fighting with each other. 290 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: These abrasions form this scar tissue. So they, you know, 291 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: form the scar tissue very easily, which turns pink. And 292 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: so this is the reason that males tend to be 293 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: pinker than females is that males are more aggressive. They 294 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: rough house, they fight more often, and so they have 295 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: built up this layer of battle pink. 296 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. Perfect, Now we have the competitor of the spider 297 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 2: crab predator. Couldn't even say its name. I'm so terrified 298 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 2: it can battle the battle pink. 299 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 3: Dolphins battle pink. 300 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought this. I I don't know if I'm 301 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: exactly right about this, but I thought that pink was 302 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: considered a boy's color at some point, because pink was 303 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: considered just the younger version of red and red was 304 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: a manly color because red is blood and blood is 305 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 1: in war, and war is for boys. 306 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it does make as much sense as any cultural 307 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 2: belief about gender and colors of the spectrum because all 308 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 2: the colors are for everybody. It's sort of like Lisa Frank, 309 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 2: fundamentally it's for everybody, and so sure that makes sense. 310 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 2: Victorians who I believe. 311 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: Picked that sounds like trying to turn our kids into dolphins. 312 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,919 Speaker 2: That's true, that's just straight up true. That's my main issue. 313 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 2: But made gold. 314 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, so actually male. 315 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,360 Speaker 2: Dogar do I get on purpose? Anyway? Go on, go on. 316 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: So one of the theories is that really pink male 317 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: dolphins are attractive females because it shows that they are 318 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: battle tested, which you know, it's like this is being 319 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: pink is like being a sort of a scarred up 320 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: Viking in the dolphin world. So you know, gosh, now 321 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 1: I'm thinking of pink Vikings and I love that too. 322 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:24,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, that would have been good. Why not? 323 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 3: Why not? 324 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: Just like, can you imagine a pink, pink beard with 325 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: all the little like braids in it, pink helmet. I 326 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: know they didn't wear little horned helmets, but can you 327 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: imagine a pink one. 328 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 3: That'd be fun. 329 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 2: In the in the sitcom, they had a bunch of 330 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 2: white gear and then one red sock got into the laundry. 331 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 2: There you go, you know, and they're like, I can't 332 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 2: believe we have to sack a monastery looking like this. Yeah, 333 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 2: we feel so silly. 334 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 1: But then it becomes the most feared color in the 335 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 1: whole Nordic seas. 336 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, they learned from one of their victims. Don't worry, 337 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 2: You're still cool. And they have a heart worming moment. 338 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 2: But also it's a Viking raid on a monastery. That's 339 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:10,399 Speaker 2: just history for you. 340 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 3: This is true history. 341 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: And yes, so pink dolphins are basically the battle scarred 342 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 1: Vikings of the dolphin world. So another pink South American 343 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 1: animal is the roseate spoonbill bird, found in the southern 344 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: parts of North America as well as in South America. 345 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 1: It is beautiful. I actually think it is in some 346 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: ways more gloriously pink than the flamingo. It is a 347 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 1: just fantastic looking bird. 348 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 2: It is. I last time I was at a zoo, 349 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 2: they had a lot of flamingos and they are paler 350 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 2: than you think in your imagination and in your mental picture, 351 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,920 Speaker 2: flamingos are sort of a pastal almost, And this spoon 352 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 2: bill is really bold. Yes, it's got the Lisa Frank 353 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:57,639 Speaker 2: going It has. 354 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: Got the Lisa Frank look going on. They live in 355 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: both fresh and salt water in coastal regions, and like 356 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 1: the flamingo, their pink coloration is from their diet, which 357 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 1: is high in carotenoids, so these are found in abundance 358 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 1: in crustaceans, insects, plants, and mollusks. The spoon bil will 359 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: also feed on frogs, fish, and newts, so it'll pretty 360 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 1: much eat anything it can get in its spoon bill 361 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 1: that is small enough and slurpable enough. 362 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, that seems technically difficult, like trying to pick up 363 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,399 Speaker 2: a frog with a spoon. I know it's different, but 364 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 2: also in my head it's not so wow, very impressive. 365 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 1: But imagine if the spoon was tongs like sort of 366 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: a salad, you know, like those salad tossers. 367 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 3: It's like a spoon. 368 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:49,199 Speaker 1: I guess there's also a fork on it tongs, So 369 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: now you go, okay, it's a yeah, a tongue bill. 370 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: It should be called the tongue bill, come on, guys, 371 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's called the spoon bill because of its long, 372 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:03,879 Speaker 1: spoon shaped bill. It's body shape overall looks kind of 373 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 1: like a heron, except for this flat, long spoon like bill. 374 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 1: Its neck is a little thicker than a heron perhaps, 375 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 1: And of course it has beautiful bright pink feathers. And 376 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 1: they use that spoon bill by kind of swishing it 377 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: side to side in the water, catching and filtering prey 378 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: through that spatula like structure, and just they look absolutely 379 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: fabulous doing it. 380 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. The other day I saw a heron take off, 381 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 2: you know, and it's like beholding an angel. I would 382 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 2: really like to see a spoon bill take off. Now, 383 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 2: that would be great. An angel with a big I'll 384 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 2: probably go look it up. 385 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 1: An angel with tongues for a face, honestly, still more 386 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: majestic in ethereal than the Biblical description of angels being 387 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: just eyeballs and wings. Eyeballs and wings. 388 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, no tongues, no pink. Come on, come on, Bible, 389 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 2: let's punch this up. I have notes for the flower 390 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 2: crab spider, and I have notes for I guess revelation 391 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 2: is where they do a lot of the angel descriptions. Anyway, 392 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:09,120 Speaker 2: there we go. 393 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: If a biblical angel came to me with its hundreds 394 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 1: of eyes and wings and stuff and said be not afraid, 395 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 1: I'd still be afraid. Whereas if an angel came to 396 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 1: me and it had a big old spoon force it 397 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: was like being not afraid. 398 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 3: I'd be like, no, dude, I'm not afraid. You're great. 399 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: Just a little note, just a little like, you know, 400 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: constructive critique for the Bible, like pressing. 401 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,199 Speaker 2: The button on some kind of home security system and 402 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 2: then realizing this will still be a difficult call. I 403 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 2: don't know how to explain this with the Hope security people. 404 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: Well, we are going to take a quick break, and 405 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 1: when we come back, we are going to talk about 406 00:22:52,760 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 1: a beautiful Barbie with legs for literally days. Alex, what 407 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 1: if we took a millipede and made it fashion? Huh? 408 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 2: What if? 409 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 1: What if? 410 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 2: What if we do it? 411 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 1: Let's do it? So Uh. There is a millipede that 412 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: is very real and very much exists, called the shocking 413 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 1: pink dragon millipede, also known as Desmoxides proposia. It's actually 414 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: pretty new on the books. It was first documented in 415 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,919 Speaker 1: two thousand and seven. That doesn't mean it's when it 416 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: was discovered. Is the first time it's sort of been 417 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,880 Speaker 1: documented in modern biology. 418 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 2: That's I'm seeing a picture of this that's astounding. Yes, 419 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,360 Speaker 2: it's a very visible insect. 420 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: It's very visible. It's very very pink, extremely pink, one 421 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: might say, shockingly pink. 422 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like if we discovered Barbie last year. And 423 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 2: that's what's the movie's about. Like, it's an Indiana Jones 424 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 2: style pick sure about can you believe we found an 425 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 2: entire pink dream house? Like I think we would have 426 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 2: found this sooner, but okay, sure. 427 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 1: I like the idea that this is a primordial Barbie, 428 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: like Barbie goes through stages of evolution to reach Barbie hood, 429 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 1: and this is just this looks like the primordial billion 430 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: year old Barbie. And it's both horrifying and very fashionable. 431 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, like the first Barbie dream boat grows wheels to 432 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 2: walk on land as a dream car. You know, it's 433 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 2: some kind of weird Cronenberg evolution. I like it. 434 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is like if Cronenberg directed the Barbie movie, 435 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 1: which honestly that might be good. 436 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 3: That might be real good. 437 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 1: So this beautiful we. 438 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,199 Speaker 2: Should have titled the Barbie movie Crimes from the Future. 439 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 2: That would make sense. That would be a fun different. 440 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 1: Title for it, fashion Crimes from the Future. So this 441 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 1: shocking pink dragon millipede. And I'm not adding I'm not 442 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 1: the one adding in the shocking pink that is in 443 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 1: its name shocking pink dragon millipede. It lives in the 444 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 1: Utaite then I Province in Thailand. It's found in forest 445 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: just kind of lurking among the leaf litter floor. Apparently 446 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: they emerge in the rain like some kind of glorious 447 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: fashion show that happens, except that it's a little bit creepy. 448 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,959 Speaker 2: I'm meant to that. I have oddly begun reading about 449 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,880 Speaker 2: fancy French fashion shows by like top designers, and there 450 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,760 Speaker 2: tends to be some really elaborate staging that you would 451 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 2: never know about without reading about it. So this makes sense. Yeah, 452 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 2: some kind of waterfall effects and the theming, yeah into it. 453 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 1: Well, fashion Week, call me when your fashion show has 454 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: a bunch of leaf litter in your models, like crawl 455 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:56,239 Speaker 1: out of the leaf litter with so many legs, then 456 00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: I'll pay attention. So this millipede is not just beautifully 457 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: fashionable with over fifty long, slender pink legs, it is 458 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: also covered in menacing pink spikes. It's punk. It's pink. 459 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 1: It's pink punk. 460 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 2: It's truly it's cartoon colored, like it's brighter than this 461 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 2: spoon bill. I feel like we've increased the saturation of 462 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,439 Speaker 2: the pink as we've spoken, which is great. As I 463 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 2: looked down our various photos of animals, it just keeps 464 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 2: getting more Barbie it keeps getting more Angeline if people 465 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 2: know that La reference. 466 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I'm at the Angeline. I'm at the Barbie Show. 467 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 1: I'm at the hot topic Angeline Barbie Show combination. 468 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 2: And then you need special protective sunglasses like the Oppenheimer 469 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 2: characters to look at it. It's too pink, too bright. 470 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: You may also want some Oppenheimer protection from this because 471 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 1: not only is it fabulous, it is very dangerous to eat. 472 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 1: It is toxic. So it produces a toxic hydrogen cyanide 473 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 1: compound and a series of glands which are very very 474 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: toxic when eaten. And so this pink coloration is not 475 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 1: just so it can show up to a Barbie premiere 476 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: looking the best. It is so other animals won't eat 477 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 1: it because they look at that. And that is a 478 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 1: back off pink. This is a I am toxic. You 479 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 1: don't want any of this pink. It's kind of I mean, 480 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 1: it's the pink that Britney Spears was serving in her 481 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 1: Toxic music video. 482 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 2: Oh right, yes, yeah, it's almost exactly that outfit and 483 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 2: maybe texture. As I look at it, it really wow, 484 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,120 Speaker 2: this is just a Britney Spears bug. That's good. 485 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, cool, It really is pink punk, and I love 486 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: her for this. This millipede. She she is as the 487 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 1: kids say, serving it. I think that's what the kids say. 488 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 1: I think they say serving. I think they say. They 489 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:12,920 Speaker 1: might still say fire. 490 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:16,719 Speaker 3: Sure, yeah, yeah. 491 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 2: But don't serve this bug at dinner. 492 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, because you'll get very sick. So yeah, 493 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 1: this actually apparently they kind of smell like almonds, which again, 494 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 1: like she's peak and she's got almond perfume and she's 495 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 1: covered in spikes. But the almond perfume is deadly because 496 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: cyanide has a slight almond sweet almondy smell. It's kind 497 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 1: of a bit it's definitely bitter tasting. You don't want 498 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: to eat it. But yeah, apparently it kind of smells 499 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,479 Speaker 1: a little bit like almonds. And so yeah, it is. 500 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 1: When you have a warning coloration, that is also known 501 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 1: as a possimitism. So maybe we've got Barbie all wrong. 502 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: Maybe the pink coloration is telling you don't eat the barbie. 503 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 1: It's full of cyanide. 504 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 2: Warning, do not play.

This speedster is rubbing up but 557 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 1: running is not exactly what's on his. 558 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 5: Mind, Alex, did you hear that beautiful sound? 559 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 2: I did, and from the hint, I feel like, no legs. 560 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 2: So sorry, shocking pick millipede, It's not you, You're out? Is 561 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 2: it some kind of I'm imagining those elephant seals with 562 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 2: the big things on their faces that help them make noise. 563 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 2: Is it. 564 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 1: That's a good guess. Yeah, it's wrong, but it's a 565 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 1: good guess. 566 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 2: I got that feeling. That's okay. 567 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 1: So I feel like perhaps I have misled you with 568 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: my clue because not only does it have legs, it 569 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 1: has some of the most impressive of legs in the 570 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 1: animal kingdom. Because this is the booming call of a 571 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 1: male ostrich who is very turned on. Congratulations to Auntie 572 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 1: Me and Joey B who both guessed correctly. 573 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 2: Cool. 574 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: Wow, this is specifically the call of the male ostrich. 575 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 1: Females do not make this call, and he is doing 576 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 1: it because he sees a lady he is trying to impress. 577 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 1: So ostriches are incredibly impressive runners. They may be flightless, 578 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 1: but it can go over forty miles per hour around, 579 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: which is around seventy kilometers per hour. They are the 580 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 1: fastest terrestrial bird. So males will offer this booming call 581 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 1: to attract females. 582 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 3: But that's not it. 583 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 1: Their mating ritual is fascinating and intricate and very silly. 584 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 2: Oh okay, I'll bet they're already ninety nine percent silly 585 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 2: looking as it is, so the mating has got to 586 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 2: be funnier. 587 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 1: So the male will make this like call until he 588 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 1: has attracted the attention of a female. But that's not 589 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:23,840 Speaker 1: good enough for her. She wants to test his metal, 590 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:28,280 Speaker 1: and so she will lead him on a ceremonial chase 591 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,839 Speaker 1: where she runs away from him and he chases her. 592 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 1: Now this is he's not actually chasing her in aggressive manner, 593 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 1: and she's still in control of the situation. Even though 594 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,359 Speaker 1: it might look like she's running away from him and 595 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:46,319 Speaker 1: he's chasing her. It is more of a ritual, and 596 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 1: she will see if he can keep up with her 597 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 1: to make sure he has good stamina and is a 598 00:34:53,640 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 1: fit prime male. So she will slow down and maybe 599 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: she's interested, maybe she's not. But to try to really 600 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 1: seal the deal, the male will unfold his wings and 601 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:13,320 Speaker 1: perform a sexy dance for her. He'll get on his knees, 602 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 1: which his knees are kind of actually his ankles like 603 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,320 Speaker 1: what we look at and seems like backwards knees our ankles, 604 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: and its knees are like further up. 605 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 3: But he will get down. 606 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,760 Speaker 1: Lift his wings up and kind of flap them consecutively, 607 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 1: like doing a little bit of the wave, and he 608 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 1: will roll his head and his neck around and around. 609 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 1: It's a very impressive dance. 610 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, it sounds like it. This is great, and it is. 611 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 1: It's funny because it isn't very clearly a sensual dance. 612 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: I feel like sometimes when you see a mating dance 613 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: from an animal, you're like, that doesn't seem sexy. This 614 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 1: one is like, yeah, he's trying to do a sexy dance. 615 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 3: For sure. 616 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 2: It sounds like the dance it says that a lot 617 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 2: of human guys do when they're just trying stuff.

You just see him try 620 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 2: it on the floor at a wedding or something, and 621 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 2: they're like, look, we're all getting creative, we're all experimenting, 622 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 2: and I'm into it. 623 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:17,319 Speaker 3: Great, I'm doing the Ostrich. 624 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a little funny, especially because they have such 625 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 1: glorious fanlike feathers they look it looks a little bit burlesque, 626 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 1: to be honest, which is great.

If the female is impressed, she'll 632 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:54,320 Speaker 1: actually sort of flutter her wings in a seductive fashion 633 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 1: and then they will mate.
