Just a little Macro Video practice, taken on a white background on my desk at home. If you have any doubts about how horrifying dragonfly nymphs can be to small fish, tadpoles, or other invertebrates... well... doubt no more.

All credit for this video goes to spikedlizardman, it is being reposted as a video response to demonstrate that natricine snakes hunt by sub-surface head-sweeps, and that doing so is not a sign of stress or drowning.

I took the liberty of translating and singing this song in classical latin. With translation provided below: Beata maria You are aware I am virtuous and holy The blood of christ has washed my soul (Translated) Beata Maria Scis me virtuosus et sanctus Sanguis Christi lavit animus Priests: Et tibit Pater Beata Maria You know I'm so much purer than the sinful people whom I govern (Trans) Beata Mar...

Oliver the Garter Snake Eating a Toad.
Amazing capture! That looks like a large toad (do you know what kind?) caught staring deep down its captor's throat here! I can only imagine what the potential meal is thinking at this moment. 😧🐸😅 It looks quite desperate here, I’m guessing no one reached out, pulling the toad to save its life?? So could the hungry Snake manage to win the struggle and gulp that whole prey down entirely okay?? It also looks like the amphibian is defensively puffing out to prevent sliding down further. When eaten, does the unlucky thing get swallowed alive all the way as well?! It looks so big still, maybe this isn’t the last for the toad and it can somehow survive the encounter?
God please make me learn Latin!
You can start by being baptized a Traditionalist Roman Catholic in the 1962 or preferrably pre-1955 traditional Latin Rite and attending the Traditional Latin Mass. I am learning more latin words and sentences by attending such a medieval style mass. Of course you will hear the reading and gospel reading in vernacular after the priest recite/prays it in Latin and then the homily is done in vernacular. Come join us!
That lorem ipsum killed me :DDDD
Machiavellia was gay
This is excellent, however, some of the words have been pronounced wrong. In Latin, c makes the ch sound before e and i, g make the j sound before e and i, and sc makes the sh souls before i and e.
It says Classical Latin in the title. That's the ecclesiastical pronunciation.
@@noname4422 Yes you are correct, but Ecclesiastical Latin would be more fitting here wouldn't you agree? I mean in the movie is set in the middle ages and the beginning of the chant is in Ecclesiastical Latin and out of nowhere switched to Classical. It doesnt seem authentic in this scene, the same as if you were to put Ecclesiastical Latin to be spoken in Ancient Rome
@@alex_6911 Maybe, but it's not correct to say it's wrong when the title says very clearly what it's supposed to be.
@@noname4422 Yes of course it warns us in what pronounciation the song would take place, but what im saying is that in this scene, Classical Latin Pronounciation is inappropriate because it doesn't match the story and the ages in which the film is set. But other than that, its not objectively wrong to use this pronounciation, no, its just the vibe😉😉
This is super impressive sing the whole song in Latin cant imagine how hard it was to learn it
I think this is closer to what the actual song would sound like.
Completely off beat.
Esta horrible jaja
Porque? Xd
At 0:45 you can hear "Chris Christie"
Sanguis Christi
@@personalismoneomedieval9536 Sangüis Christi
I know/am learning Latin, and since this song fits so well, I wanna sing it
RIP Notre Dame, and damn that hellfire
I bet it was the gauls
She will live again.
Summary : Snake bites frog and holds...no eating at all . Welcome
Very cool!
How do you say Hellfire in Latin?
Ignis Infernus
Do you mean as in fire of hell or do you mean hell fire
gehennam
I hace goosebumps :D
Wow that's where my guppies are going!
Yeah, keeping one of these guys with your fish is a bad idea if you want to have living fish.
It really sucks that they kill fish, because I love dragonflies, I want to support the local wildlife, perhaps I will need a larger fish that would get along with them
+comradetortoise can u upload the full footage of it eating
better to be a tea bagger than a douche bag.
This isn't Classical Latin... unless I'm very much mistaken, vowel length is absolutely ignored.
I'm not sure, but I think when singing, the vowel length can be ignored, just like in Mandarin, when singing, you can ignore the tones
Well, vowel length was certainly not ignored in poetry, so…
Poetry has meter to it, singing has notes
Thank you for making this, me and my friend had thought that this should be a thing, so thanks for taking the initiative to make it :)
Scrum diddly umptious
Garter snakes have been proven mildly venomous
Not to be mean, really, but making your voice aside, your accent doesn't help neither, friend, Olivette has latinized hers, you should have rehearsed a lot more before uploading.
What's with the heavy breathing?
It is just the way I breath when concentrating on something. Plus my face was right in the view-finder and thus the microphone.
Sorry to be the first to tell ya bro but you need classes bad. You didn't show too much range so I cant tell if your voice is any good or not but because you didn't try to hit the notes im guessing not. Sorry bro not gonna win any singing competitions. :/
Oh, I know. This song is waaaaay the hell outside my range, and because I sing by ear well... the musical score draws me higher and higher until I can no longer actually project. Maybe I can find a version scored for a tenor or baritone.
Try looking at this guys Vids you never know if it might help you. Voice lessons to the World. is the tittle on youtube, Its full of tips for the non professional singer that can make a huge difference. GL in your stuff bro hope the best for ya.
this reminds me of that antacid commercial where your food is fighting back.
Hey Ben. Mordecai Crow here. :) Enjoyed this talk. CZcams needs more videos of something resembling substance, like this one. Take it easy.
Hi, Just been reading on the subject after watching a video by theoreticalbullshit on homosexuality. Was aware of the first two possible reasons why homosexuality occurs but not the third one, so thank you for expanding my knowledge. My interest was in the religious debate but am always happy to learn about any subject. Nice to hear an intelligent American - rare in the land of creationists. Was wondering about your choice of name 'comradetortoise'. - do you keep them.
Oh, that's so wonderful! Thank you so much!
Thank you for proving that you are illiterate. Mice are not major items on a wild garter snake's menu. Their liver does not handle the fat content of frequent mouse feedings very well. It is not good for their liver. I do feed him mice as a supplement--just like the toads-- but the primary diet is fish. What is REALLY funny is that you think feeding them mice is somehow better. Mice are more intelligent than toads, and being asphyxiated by CO2 is not what I would call pleasant.
Yes. I know exactly what species of toad it is. Ollotis nebulifer. Not toxic (at least not to a garter snake), and extremely common.
Yes, my friend and myself are geeks. However, I fail to find any reference in my video to sexual arousal. If you want to be a smug douche-nozzle, feel free, but at least be accurate while doing it.
I have a few choices when it comes to feeding a garter snake. I can feed him goldfish which are not nutritionally complete and contain parasites. I can feed him mice, which while nutritious contain a lot of fat and put the snake at risk of obesity, or I can use frogs and toads which contain less fat, are exactly what the snake needs, but put them at a parasite risk. I use a combination of all of the above, and in no way is it possible to avoid feeding these snakes other animals. Get a brain.
Garter snakes have a mild venom that acts as a paralytic. After the first couple minutes, all the toad can really do is keep his lungs inflated and hope he is too big to swallow.
I love how people are so Offended by the death of a stupid Toad to feed a Snake, that they would actually threaten to kill a human being over it.
@AGVIDEOLOVER I know lol
@TrigunNaruto About to say it isn't the only one before I realised you'd figured that out XD My Latin and Greek translations are nowhere near as well sung, though! ^^
YAYAYAY another Latin fandubber!!! *ahem* I really like the way you've rendered the themes in this, and you sing it really well :)
I like how he didn't sound like a eunuch. JK, I liked yours too.
Well...it would be by default but I can safely say you have the best latin version of this song on youtube...even if because its the only one :D I was searching for it cuz I knew thats what his "conscience" was chanting in but I always wondered what the whole song would sound like.
A good start. Coming off a bit smarmy and condescending, but I think that's intentional. Who is your target audience, if you have one in mind? Also, the variations in cadence and volume in your speaking are volatile enough to make listening a bit difficult without following the video with a distracting degree of intensity, which is not helped by the jumpy frame rate capture of your head movement. Just thought a little criticism could be useful for future iterations ::: )
This snake wont eat pre-killed prey, and while he usually consumes fish and earthworms, he gets the occasional (usually twice annual) treat of a small toad. I do this because it is good for the snake to get some variation in his diet, and because I am fascinated by predation. You dont see me playing rock music or reveling in the suffering. I posted this because I love my snake, and because I thought it would be educational to show how a snake subdues and eats its prey.
3:15-3:28 the snake looks boss
dude you know what kind of toad that is idiot
@MattMcGowanIsTheBest Fuck you too bro.
@MattMcGowanIsTheBest Get over it, it's just a toad.
