If you like this share it around! Also what do you think of this kind of video format?
I approve. This is very good. You're extremely talented.
I think the format is _sensational._ A perfect balance of humor, brilliantly tasteful editing, great cinematography, and excellent yet succinct analysis of a very interesting subject matter. Really impressed.
As for the topic, one philosopher believes we should (eventually) use biotechnology to completely eliminate predation on a global scale. Very interesting: www.abolitionist.com/reprogramming/index.html
surprisingly deep. 🤔

This is the longest "i've put a tiny waterfall in my pond." video i've ever watched. 10/10
ahaha could have been 5 seconds
4 yrs ago, huh?
It's obvious what the real solution here is fella - arm the frog population and encourage an uprising against the lizard overlords
Or send in the emus, y'all know how hard they are
mate, i dont want them over throwing me!
Apparently the frogs are to busy being gay.
I did a thing to late I am here, I am able to access the internet

every time I think of it, the concept of owning a pond is great, since you are the legit god of their environment and you rule the whole ecosystem and the animals think you’re a god

thanks mate. dont expect much of it

thanks mate!
Hey jezz, wassup ma man?
You know you're a big deal when one of two gods love your channel
jesus are we still cool with you? after the... incident you know?
I had frog pond as well. Birds would show up to snatch the little ones as they transformed from taddie to froggie. I defended my frogs. I even protected the teddies from being consumed by the frogs which does happen. I simply created an adult pond. All my frogs repaid my kindness by consuming the bugs which would attack my tomato plants and many others. I spent many hours of sheer enjoyment sitting by my frog ponds.
*“Oi where’s my sexy lizard poster”*
*oi josuke*
If I could have a dollar for every time I’ve said that.....
Does anyone know the song?
Introduce even bigger lizards to eat the smaller ones.
Not gonna lie I was genuinely hoping he would release a predator species to the lizards
Bigger Jaws
@G sun Cane Toads, correct?
Bull toads
Bigger frogs
"I created a healthy ecosystem"
"I have no right to play god"
Choose one
was gonna say you're already playing god when you made the pond for frogs you've already chosen a side you're already intervening.

Zing!
Ooo-hoo-hoo! SA-NAP!
It's your garden, it's your pond, it's your frogs. This isn't wildlife. Intervene all you want.
i would argue it isnt exactly the same as a closed ecosystem as the lizards are native to my garden. I would have to take very active measures like trapping or killing them in order to remove them.
I had a pond with fish and the neighbors cat kept lookin in. I had to scare it off not cool
@@hugedickerinokripperino5299 cats are not native and are a huge burden to ecosystems, I doubt spraying if with a hose when it gets close to your pond is a bad idea

"Now that I am older, and developed a body that can successfully dig a hole"
I love how David Attenborough gets drawn into this ethical dilemma.
Dude just wait until some snakes colonize your pond. Then it'll get interesting.
Actually it would be really cool to document the number of species that colonize your pond over time. If you want, you could even dig different sized ponds nearby and see how that affects the species that colonize them. It would be a pretty dope research project to say the least
yeh i am pretty excited. I am not sure they would colonize it naturally as it is tucked away in my yard, although the British did colonize Australia.
@@Ididathing oh it would be a tiny little warzone xD
Go buy a big fake snake and wrap it around that log
Genius man
IT Might attract some male snakes looking for some sext time ;)
It will also scare the frogs
Next : I have a snake problem
Another important reason David did not intervene in the elephant situation was because the elephant herd accompanying the baby were aggressively defending the baby in its last moments. It would have been extremely dangerous to approach any of the elephants at that time.
@2:34 that dust devil shot is amazing 🤩
That hands-down the pants thing got my subscription
They can't have saved the elephant because a) the parents would attack them and
b) what are you going to do, give it a dissani.
Thor the ginger pour water over it using either a bucket or a hose. also most elephants understand humans as friendly. a study auctally came out as elephants seeing humans as we see dogs, they see us as being cute. so, yeah.
@@og.K7 ok
@@og.K7 where they gonna get a bucket of water or hose in middle of nowhere? It's dieing from dehydration cuz there's no water around.
explicitDTP well they obviously had to drive there, so they couldve brought a bucket of water by putting it in their car
@@og.K7 also pouring water over it does not stop it from dying from dehydration
I absolutely love your videos ! Its always interesting watching a new video made by you ! :) Oddly entertaining and educational tho aha
thanks lim!
just binge watched all of your animal vids. love your sense of humor & really appreciate your compassion for the animal kingdom- subbed & clicked the bell for ya. have a good one lad
Ironic youd mourn Godzilla the king of lizards... while plotting the demise of pond lizards lol
Bert Bargo that isn’t the true Godzilla
Well either way “zilla” is more related to lizards then the real godzilla anyways so
Godzilla is "The King of Monsters", not lizards. Godzilla is a mammal. In the original Japanese it's called "Gojira" which is a combination of the words gorira and kojira. "Godzilla" literally means "gorilla whale".
@@SeekerGoldstone i'm pretty sure godzilla is not a mammal
@@HypochondriacStudios I have seen every feature length Toho kaiju film. I am 100% positive that Godzilla is a mammal.
God of the pond.
Dude this video is amazing. Reminds me of early youtube. Philosophical, fact filled and most of all, still funny you definitely deserve a sub.
Now I can dig ponds.....*throws the shovel*
ALL DONE
If David and his crew had intervened, they would’ve gotten killed by the mother protecting her calf. Or they may have killed the mother in self defense.
They were right not to intervene. The footage is enough to put more light on the damage those man made businesses were causing.
In the scenario with your pond, you found a great solution. But though your pond is real, everything about the set up is artificial and not completely natural. It’s like setting up a terrarium but outside. So with that said, if your goal was to have a frog pond, then remove the lizards. Are you going to have the same discussion with yourself when the plants overgrow and start to take over the open body of water?
Nice video man! Phil DeFranco sent me here.
Thanks mate! Yeh my situation is very different to the "natural" environment! I am just glad i dont have any elephants in my yard
I did a thing
Reading the comments, it sounds like your from Australia. If that’s the case, I’d be building a pond for salties and freshies lol. Love crocs!
all "this humans are aliens and shouldn't interact with animals" stuff is stupid we are animals ourself.
You don't know what the mother Elephant would have done, and neither do I or anyone else. Some Elephants DO see humans as friends, even if they've never had any interactions with them before. A elephant was wounded by poachers, and taken to an elephant sanctuary to recover. Later, once it was released, it came back with a second elephant who was wounded. the second elephant was a stranger to the workers at the sanctuary, but allowed them to treat it's injuries anyway. Eventually some times elephants just....showed up at the Sanctuary when ever they had a problem. They'd communicated with each other that this was a safe area. Depending on rather or not that specific mother elephant or her herd had any positive interactions with humans like they David and his crew might have been able to get close enough to share some of their water supply with the baby elephant.
If anything, going on the assumption that this particular herd of elephants would be hostile to their efforts and try to attack them would have been a better reason not to help. Baby sea turtles can't hurt a human. While a emotionally distraught mother elephant defending her dying child most definitely was capable of inflicting some serious pain.
Both situations were man made, either from global warming, or the city lights confusing the baby turtles. But helping the baby elephant had a far greater risk of injury than helping baby sea turtles.
Suprizemofaka - so your against conservation?
the crew half went back on the 'nature should not be intefered with thing' in dynasties. The dug a ramp for penguins to climb after they fell in a ditch after a blizzard
This video was an emotional rollercoaster
Very neat video, love the conclusions you came to.
Thanks Phillip de Franco for bringing me here awesome vid man !!
Wyatt Alexander Phil isn’t here to thank
jbroti 004 just trying to let "I did a thing" know I found his channel through Phils and he got a Sub from me because of it. Hopefully others have as well and the channel sees some growth because of it! It's a positive thing don't make it technical man.... this is clearly not phils channel and wasn't personally thanking him here smh
Wyatt Alexander I know I was kidding. Phil also brought me here
Thanks mate! I have no idea how he found my video
I did a thing typically if someone makes a very well thought out, informative, or clever video, he’s good at spotting it out.
Great vid Ausie mate. Keep it up. Proud of you. Sincerely from a Malaysian dude.
there's levels to this man. Surely the most intellectual video on "stopping lizards". Cool stuff. Everything ethically and humanely done.
This channel's pure gold! Insane inventions, cool animals and an awesome family.
God Damn, every one of your vids are gold, keep up the work
thanks mate!
you are literally by far the funniest person on this website

This is the most entertaining video I've seen on CZcams lmao. Thank you for this content.
Generally speaking it's understood that we shouldn't interfere with nature, especially as mere spectators.
In the case of the turtles, David and his crew didn't interfere with nature, but rather directed the turtles toward the path that nature intended. If they hadn't, the turtles would have suffered a way less natural outcome.
Yeah, but isn't that just one big appeal to nature fallacy? I think we should intervene in nature but mainly in terms of reducing wild animal suffering. Obviously we have to be careful and considerate of ecological balances but in principle, humans should reduce wild animal suffering as much as possible in the long run because generally speaking, suffering is bad.
@@romanski5811 IIRC natural fallacy is about saying something is intrinsically good because it's natural. Here the debate is about keeping nature natural, and just about the definition of nature vs culture (man-made), I think all parties already agree that keeping nature natural is good. It's just unclear what pure nature/natural is due to the enormous impact human culture has everywhere.
But if you think there's nothing wrong with interfering with nature then you'd be right in calling the other side out for saying something is good just because it's natural. Which isn't the wildest stance to take, I just assumed people didn't here.
Humans aren't part of nature now I guess. We aren't ALSO animals apparently...Just because it's "man made" doesn't mean we are no longer animals lol. We ARE part of nature as well. So if they got ran over by cars, it's still very much natural part of nature.
I cannot believe you don't have at least a million followers. This is absurd. I watched this and the other lizard fixing ur bug problem vid and I feel rejuvenated by this gold mine I stumbled upon
thanks mate! i feel rejuvenated by your comment
He's doing alright.
@@johart309 lol yeah this was when he had like 80k or something I can't remember. So proud of the channel's growth since then :)
As a previous back of house cook from KFC, I can tell you that I had no ethical decisions, I had no time for ethical decisions, because people demanded chicken and that was what I was paid to cook.
you're a hero
Dude idk how or why you popped up on my feed but I’m glad you did this video was badass and educational
Love your channel. Just subscribed
How tf does he only have 15K subs? This quality of video is what I’d expect to see on someone’s channel with at least 300K subs. Very entertaining. Good video.
Thanks mate! Means a lot!
@@Ididathing this aged like fine wine
That is Zilla, not Godzilla. Nerd power!
I would relocate the lizards if caught. Nice idea disturbing the water. Rip the tadpoles.
His name is godzilla not Zilla and also Godzilla 1998 is actually cannon to the Toho Universe the name zilla come from Godzilla Final Wars which is a standalone film
If you don't believe me then go watch videos of Godzilla 1998 of his history
ay man, i really love your cinematography/photography and editing. pretty neat
That elephant broke my heart, and I'm SOBBING

It’s a frog pond so it makes sense for the frogs should win
phil brought me herr...I'm very glad
so am i
I'm glad im not the only one thinking they could've saved that baby elephant
The fountain really creates a relaxing sound in your pond.
You had me at "sitting at the pool sipping mojitos! Subbed!
Love how 60% of the video is he discussing if it is ethical to intervene, just like the human genome project, in which a lot of the budget and time was spent figuring out if it was ethical to having people nutting in test tubes
Your videos are so good and they never fail to entertain me, thank you

I love ur perspective towards the elephant issue
Humans involving themselves is natural. Now, recognizing this isnt simple is great!
Some remarks
One lizard can kill many frogs, so being indifferent between lizards and frogs means placing a higher value on lizards: one lizard counts as much as many frogs because the choice is between saving one lizard versus saving many frogs.
Neither the lizards, nor the frogs, nor the pond care at all if you play God and intervene in nature. You are the only one caring about not playing God. If you value not playing God above the well-being and the lives of the frogs, you are putting your own values above those of others (the frogs who value their own well-being and safety).
David Attenborough didn't built the highway that threatened the turtles. The principle that we are allowed to save animals if the harm was human-caused, is arbitrary, because one could equaly propose the principle that intervening to save animals is only permissible when the harm was caused by e.g. blacks, Africans or humans not born in the UK (David is neither one of those, and the highway was built by people not born in the UK, i.e. not the group David belongs to). Or one could say that intervention is also permissible when the harm is caused by great apes, primates, mammals or vertebrates instead of humans. David is also primate, mammal and vertebrate. The harm to the frogs was caused by lizards, which are vertebrates, i.e. the group we (you, David, me) belong to, so this means we are allowed to intervene.

Just read your article. Great read! I wish i found it before making this video though.
The line where one draws the line to intervene or not intervene is always arbitrary, subjective and self imposed. Having said that I think frog pond guy did a good thing installing a water pump to create movement on the water surface. Even if the lizards become accustomed to it it will add oxygen to the water and make it harder for mosquitoes to breed in there
What the fuck
Your style is just hilarious great solution also.
thanks mate
Your videos are the best bro
