This is a video from informative Youtuber ReYOUniverso imagining if the history of life on earth were packed into a 24 hour period. If that were the case, the first fully formed cells come into existence at 4:30AM, and it takes all the way until 9:34PM for plants to emerge

This is a clip from Planet Earth III narrated by personal hero David Attenborough featuring a number of male common frogs waking up from hibernation in the French Alps, and immediately racing down the mountain to the breeding pools where females await. Damn, waking up from sleeping all winter and

Life, uh, finds a way. Case in point: this video from Vietnam of a fish in a shallow red bucket that decides today’s not the day to be eaten and flops out of the bucket, into the street, realizes it’s going the wrong way, and eventually flip-flops itself into a

These are several shots and a video of a leucistic raccoon (previously: a leucistic penguin) taken by photographer Kendra Smith outside her home that she submitted to the Oregon Department Of Fish And Wildlife.

I’m sure this has been documented countless times, but the process of metamorphosis never ceases to amaze me. I remember in first grade we had a monarch butterfly kit in the classroom and watched them morph from caterpillars to chrysalises (did you know when a monarch caterpillar is hanging upside

This is a very short video of a giraffe demonstrating its technique for reaching ground-level food. In this case, grass. You know I’ve eaten my fair share of grass before, and I honestly don’t see what all these animals like it so much. It doesn’t even taste good and just

This is another video from Youtuber Soil Cross Sections (previously: the alien movement of a growing pea plant), this time a VERY exciting timelapse of grass growing over the course of 8 days, as constructed from 1,980 individual digital photos. How crazy was that?! “Wow, now where’s the timelapse of
