Extinct Grey Wolf Subspecies

Hey everyone!

This week. we're looking at 12 subspecies of grey wolf that have been lost over the last 150 years.

I hope you enjoy!

I also already have scripts done for my next 4 videos, which is really rare for me. But I was on a role with research and writing.

We'll be looking at the largest insects on earth, one endemic species from every country in Europe, and a two...

Rare Animals Caught on Camera

Hey everyone!

This week's video is about 5 rare species caught on camera. Some are spreading their range, others are making a comeback, and in one case, a recording has lead to the rediscovery of a long-lost species!

I hope you enjoy!

Only Seen ONCE

Here it is, the next installment in the ever-popular "Once" series. I've had this script written for something like 4 months just waiting on all the images from museums to be sent.

I hope you guys enjoy hearing about 5 species that have only been seen once (or twice).

Animals No One Knows About (Part 4)

Hey all, it's been a rough week.
I was losing my voice earlier in the week (you might notice in the voiceover), and now I'm in full-blown fever mode, and I just laded from a rather horrible flight.

To make matters worse, Canva (which is the program I edit all the videos on) did a huge update to their video editor, and it might be the least user-friendly update I've ever seen.

What content do you want to see?

Hey everyone!
I'm working on the video for this week, which is another installment of "25 species no one knows about." I also have a script done for another "Once" video.
And I have so many video ideas lined up that it's almost scary.

But I always find that the content that does the best is the stuff viewers recommend.

What do you guys want to see? What do you want to see more...

Animals Found in Strange Places

Hey everyone! The video for this week is live! It's a little shorter than others I've recently made mostly because I was traveling quite a bit this week. But I hope you enjoy the topic!

Endemic Species to each US State and Territory

It's 4:30 am where I am, and this video is just finished.
I think the thumbnail needs to be redone, but I'll do it tomorrow.

Hope you all enjoy the video! It's hyper US-focused this week, but hopefully still appealing to a wide audience.

MacFarlane's Mystery Bear

Hey everyone!

The video for this week is about MacFarlane's Bear, and I dove so deep into it, that I ended up spending 3 weeks working on this. In fact, I may have put more time and effort into this one video than any other video I've ever made, and I'm incredibly happy with the final product.

I really hope you guys enjoy it!

Mysteries revealed through Genetics

Hello again!
The video this week is about 10 mysteries revealed through or solved by genetic research.
I HATE the thumbnail, and I'll redo it before it goes live.

Also, next week's video is going to be one of my best yet (in my opinion). Sadly, I'm currently out of the algorithm, it seems, so hopefully, this video goes well to get me back into it.

The video is about 7 Incredible Plant Adaptations, and I want to highlight one of the behaviours that will be in the video on the thumbnail.

Surprising Canadian Species

Hello everyone!

I'm flying from Indonesia to Canada tomorrow, which meant that I needed a topic this week that I could produce in only a few days, and I'm sharing it with you now, as it's already done.

I've selfishly wanted to do this topic for a really long time. I know it might not have broad appeal, but it was fun for me to make.

I hope you're all doing well!

Exciting images!

I’m so excited to share this with you. My next video is about species that have only ever been seen once, twice, or thrice, and for three of the five species, there are no images available anywhere online.

For the first time, I decided to track down where the specimens are kept and request photographs of these incredibly rare animals. This is the very first publicly available image of ...

Re-upload

Well, for those of you who watched the last video, you may have noticed the visceral reaction people had to me using about 6 AI images in the video. I knew there was going to be a few comments, but I didn't expect the essay-length comments about how horrible of a person I am.

So, I've spent the last 6 hours re-editing the entire video to remove those images, and of course I've learned my ...

New Zealand's Mystery Mammal

Hello everyone!

The new video is up.

I came across reports of this species back when I was doing research for the video about the Takahe, and I was shocked by how little information there is out there about it.

I hope you enjoy the video.

Soon I'll do another video about species only seen once. The script is done, but I'm waiting on confirmation from some museums in Sout...

50 Obscure Animal Facts

The video for this week is looking at 50 really strange animal facts. A lot of these were submitted by viewers, a lot of them were ones I went looking for.
I hope you enjoy.

On a side note, the channel has been doing really well lately. Not sure what broke me out of that crazy slump I had back in February, March, and April, but thankfully, it seems to be over...for now at least.

Another Thumbnail Option

This one is more in line with my established style, and similar to other thumbnails that have recently performed well (like my last video about animals caught on camera).

What do you guys think of this one?

Your Opinion

Guys! I'm so bad at making eye-catching thumbnails, and I'm struggling this week. The video for this weekend is "10 Strangest Newly Discovered Animal Behaviours." Do any of these thumbnails look good? Or should I go back to the drawing board? I sort of hate all of them.
