Those pink iguanas are gorgeous! I'm surprised no one was interested in investigating them.
They look so otherworldly. What an awesome animal
Me too! But the thing about scientific research is that you can only study what people will fund you to study, and it can take years to find the right people to fund specific research.
Attenborough covered them in his galapagos documentary
Those water lilies blow my mind. Looks like a fairy tale.
How the heck did I not know about a PINK iguana discovered in my lifetime?!? I regularly seek out and read articles about new species too.
Carlos Magdalena living that Tom Bombadil life out there judging by his picture.
One of the best nature channels on CZcams, I never expect the real frog calls (sounds).. job well done❤
I love those scene queen iguanas! 💗🖤💗
The pink iguana looks kinda more similar to the marine iguana than the other two do- the marine even has a little pink under the dark body tone. I wonder if adaptation to cold temperatures occurred first in the high elevation iguana population.
Those pink iguanas are beautiful. Hope they manage to breed them a lot. There needs to be more of them.
Loved this!
It's a prime example of why re-examining ecosystems and biomes we think we know and looking at the data with fresh eyes is important. And why museums, universities and other institutions need to open their old drawers and cabinets, as something interesting we missed long ago may be in there.
Species are living right under our noses, including in our major cities. Most (but not all) are smaller and look enough like known species that they flew under our radar. Great work!
Galapagos islands, thank you. Evolution is too cool and it would be sad to not have it.
I've lived in St. Albert, Alberta, Canada for almost 62 years. The Sturgeon River running through town used to be teaming with life. Still see various animals, ie: mammals, birds, amphibians, insects, crustaceans, etc. Present day diversity pales in comparison to the past. Remember seeing massive swarms of small green shrimp like animals swimming near the shores. To this day, I don't know what they were. Unfortunately a lot of species seem to be disappearing from under our noses here. Most people are indifferent to the fact. Makes me angry to see, what should be left as a wildlife corridor turn into a medium for developers to line their pockets, with the consent of local politicians.
Nah that iguana was tweaking
Stop what you're doing! A new AAN video just dropped.
So… am I supposed to stop watching the video 🤔
I stopped breathing and moving
The doctor meanwhile xD
Both calls of the Atlantic Coastal and Southern Leopard Frogs are rendered as [Laughter] by the CZcams auto-c(r)aptions, so that won't help me in IDing them at all!
So glad I found you! Thank you!!! I listen to your playlists at night and it’s perfect. P.S. thank you so much for being a CZcamsr that uses leveling! Some channels scare the creep out of me at 4 am! Keep on with your dream.
2:08 . Tourist taking a Picture of 2 Galapagos Tortoise getting Kinky.

2?
Looks like a 3way to me
@@tirramasu7948That's Even More Kinky.

I heard of a new tree frog found on skyscapes in new York city in the 2000's
Wow, that's crazy
Do you have any more info on this? Can't find anything about it. Would be very cool, but I would think tree frogs would fare badly in that environment. There are tree frogs native to the general wider area though.
@@HuckleberryHim it could be newer 2006-08 or 2010's it was a pretty big news story because all the new yorkers were clicking on the story. But it's pretty old so I don't think I got any links to it. I think it was found on the side of a skyscraper
Not surprised, we have owls, snakes and coyotes attempting to take back the bx🤣🤣🤣.
I'd like to mention the atlantic forest boa (Boa atlantica), which has been described earlier this year in 2024. It occurs in some of the most heavily populated areas in Brazil, and several individuals had been collected over the centuries, but the subtle differences between them and Boa constrictor had gone unnoticed for a long time
I am always happy to see your work, lots of research and well narrated, appreciate it!👏
All the best Jules 💕
Thanks Jules! I appreciate your comment every time.
This reminds me of a news article about the fact that apparently Australians had been eating a species of fish unknown to science, really interesting how things can be hidden in plain sight
Who else clicks the like button before they’ve even watched the video? 😂
I appreciate people like you!
Literally me every time!
Welp as a CT boy I minus well keep an ear open for those frogs. Neat to hear about!
Im alway's interested in new found species nice choice
You from the south?
@@bradleyhowell4155 I'm from my place in Albuquerque
Wow! Both brilliant and exciting. Thank you …
Recently found your channel, love it. Well done.
Thanks! Glad you enjoy it.
those waterlilies are amazing.
I like the part about the Iguanas from the Galápagos Islands. Especially that Pink species.
I used to catch those leopard frogs as a kid. I just kinda knew them as leopard frogs, didn't think anything special about them.
Carlos Magdalena also saved from extinction the Rwandan Water Lilly.
New species Leopard frog's song sounds dope
I get so excited for new videos!! Thank you 💚
Just subbed! Love the content
Lot of new species are being discovered in the SE US now because people are starting to pay more attejtion to differences in populations of many plant species. Many of these are currently undescribed, or very rare. such as the eastern population of Quercus acerifolia. The western population, acerifolia proper, has only about 600 individials remaining. Q. boyntonii and Q. georgiana both have around 200 individuals remaining.
A lot of these undescribed species are rare and declining due to fire suppression and habitat alteration.
Outside of the botanical realm, recently a lot of new desmognathus species were described through genetic evidence across the southern appalachians.
Adoro tus videos.❤
iguanas are so cool! :o
Perfect
I just watched a video of a spade tooth whale. I would love a video about the less species of whale. Omuras, type D orcas, etc.
@@missykurtz5552 about 3 weeks I made that exact video. 👍🏼
The frog doesn't suprise me much.
Frogs tend to have a lot of kleptons, i.e. hybrids maintaining themselves in parent populations. There should be some in the Lithobathes genus.
See for example the clusterfuck that is the genus Pelophylax in Europe, there are a few kleptons intertwined in parent populations, sometime having overlapping ecological niches ans identification in the field is often excessively complex.
what abt sea snakes?
anyone know what type of turtles are those at 0:56
Hvala🇸🇮
Wow
Hi
Want to increase the population of pink iguanas? Let a couple loose in Florida.
Or Queensland!
