This is another size comparison video from Global Data (a follow-up to their previously posted video), comparing the actual size of different types of animals, both extinct and extant. Mother Nature sure doesn’t make them like she used to, does she? She used to make them BIG. Now she makes
Narrated by nature knight Sir David Attenborough (I say we just king him already), this is a clip from National Geographic’s ‘Hunt For The Giant Squid’. In the video, researchers in a submersible off the coast of Antarctica discover a rarely seen giant phantom jellyfish at a depth of around
This is a video of cockatoos that have learned to use multiple tools in order to receive rewards, in this case using a sharp stick to poke a hole through a membrane, then a long straw to retrieve cashew nuts. Apparently the ability to use toolsets has only previously been

Andrew captured the 148 megapixel image with the idea of highlighting the hidden colors of

This is a video of a precious lil Yorkshire Terrier that’s become a science experiment after repeatedly rubbing itself on the sofa and building up static electricity. It reminds me of myself after sticking my hand on the Van de Graaff Generator at the science museum. Good times. Not nearly
