- Life in the mangroves of South Asia is difficult, but there's one creature in this swamp that's defying the odds, and our expectations at the same time. This is the Fishing Cat.

I want one...😂😂😂
Anyone else realise that in the cartoons cats love fish but hate water that's like loving apples but hating trees. But this cat actually isn't all meow and no scratch amirite?!?
😂😁😊☺️🙂😐😒😔☹️
My dearest apologies for you having to read that horrible cat joke. I was just kitten around 😝.
😾
😓
Sorry never again here take a 🍪 leave a like if you wanna have a purrtastic day 😅
🥰🥰🥰
as soon as she said climate change, I stopped watching.
I'm only here for the "No one can hear you meow" quip tbh. I rewarded the clever subtext(?). I did stay for the whole video though, so, well done.
The ultimate showdown:
Fishcat versus Catfish!
Lol

This fight will be legendary

I was at that part as soon as I read your comment lol
Trueeeee

Most cats get their fish in a can, this cat gets his fish cause he can.

2:48 "Man I'm hiding why you light me like that? really man?"
"Wtf man, turn out that light! You're blowing up my spot!"
I'd be irritated if I was her
That was an infrared torch. Can cats see infrared?
@@alexmighty693 They can't. Even a domestic cat would get the hell out if someone shone a light at them like that, let alone a wild cat!
The cat can't see it, it's infrared. There's no way a cat would just stay put while a strong beam of light is trained on them, when it is pitch dark, too. If you shine a flashlight at a house cat in the middle of the night when the light is out (and please do not do this), the cat will dash away FAST. Let alone a wild cat that is already very wary of its environment.
Cats really are the masters of adaption. Stick them anywhere in the world and they will (in time) make it work.
So are humans, all species evolve and adapt to accommodate their needs
Are you not familiar with Death Valley USA
Very interesting. I never knew of Fishing cats. I wish my house cat would get a job.
😂😂😂
I'm trying to tell you!!!
they need to get employed instead of living rent free in our houses!
The problem is, they want to be the boss🤣😂

Finally a cat that isn't afraid of water 😅

other cats: ew water, I'm scared
fishing cats: we don't do that here
They reminded me of the barbarian girls that hunts and kill.
Funny, cause i can take both my dogs to the beach on a hot day, they'll see other dogs jumping happily into the water. My girls look at me like, "..you want us to go...in there!?! Umm... no mum" 😑

It mesmerizes me how the cat is slowly transforming into something looking like an otter.
The Leopard Seal has a reptilian profile more than a mammalian one to some observers. That would make an informative video.

This breed likes it.
@Cheesy Popcorn Is not funny anyway this shit is too repetitive
It is pretty cool to see the difference in the way the Fishing Cat is built compared to a common house cat. The Fishing cat is highly specialized for diving after prey in the water. Just amazing.
Love that you mentioned the physical adaptations to water! Not a lot of animal videos do that and it's the part I'm interested the most!
@CordobanFox - The white spots on their ears are so visible, but the video did not mention them. What are they for?

Thanks Animalogic for this particular video. Forget educational aspect for a minute, I didn't know cats could do that - jump in salt water and pounce on fish. Wow...

Given the black-and-white nature of the footage, Infared cameras seems likely.
Humans use mecanic to catch pictures. They don't need to stay around themselves. Automatic cameras do the job
I’m crazy about all felids, and am always happy to learn more about the wild species. I think they were first in the beauty line when various animal characteristics were given out!
Felids are the Best 👌
This series on small wild cats has been wonderful so far. I have loved every episode. Thank you for the hard work. It’s so sad to see so many specialist cats being pushed close to extinction. With so much land on this planet, you’d think we could learn to live in harmony with nature.
Domestic cat, lion and cheetah: "Eek! We hate water!"

Each animal is so perfectly adapted to its environment and needs, evolution is like magic. The Fishing Cat is a great example, long may they live!

AnimaLogic: shows me a series of deadly wild cats
My peanut brain: Must pet them!
Word.
Agreed
Same
My first thought was if I could somehow build a conservatory for them in my house so I can keep them as pets. Like how much space do they need to roam? I can dig a shallow area for a pond and make one.
Facts 👁👄👁😂
This is the first time I've seen this kind of feline. Wow so beautiful.
I thought I knew a lot about cats but I never heard of the Fishing Cat. Let's hope they stay as part of their own ecosystem ❤️🤞😿

I had not heard of fishing cats until today when I saw on koco that the Oklahoma City Zoo's 14 year old fishing cat passed away. Will have to make a visit to the zoo to see his offspring and all the new exhibits and updated exhibits. 😍😍😍

Eh my cat love to be in water swimming.
Some house cats also like water
I've never heard about this cat before. Really cool stuff!
I showed this video to my lazy cat who sleeps all the time. He didn't show any sign of remorse, rather annoyed that I woke him up. He went straight back to sleep.

@Rodzilla I thought it was from a supposedly removed mission from GTA III whose name's *Ice Cream, You Scream*
Because its quarantine
The fishing kit is eyeing the person using the spotlight like, “Really? I can see this spectrum... y-your gonna just keepit on me-wooooow.” *light intensifies* “Woooooow...”
The spotlight is usually just infrared light. We see it using an infrared camera.
The cat likely only sees the cameraman if the moon is shining.
They probably use IR cameras and IR illuminators
Can fishing cats see IR? Do we know?
@@pattifeit4354 Cats do not have infrared vision. Yes, we know.
How you've been hearing fishi kit, I don't know 😂

@Muscc What DID he SAY?? Lol
Muscc WHAT did HE say
Fishing cat: "Let's go hunting at night to be absolutely invisible".
Reporter: Literally put a spotlight on him.
The enviroment is so harsh that even a cat has to transform into an underwater hunter.
The concept of "extinction" always give me a sad feeling
And while I don't mean to sound like species extinction isn't something we should try to prevent, I will make the point that the only reason we exist, is because of a catastrophic mass extinction, which allowed our mammal antecedents to develop. I'm not sure how humans will become extinct, but I don't see us here in a million years, and in the wake there will be an entirely new crop of animals having a turn of the planet.
In short, you honestly do not need to feel sad about it.
And so it should.
@@alexanderSydneyOz We won't be here because we'll be colonizing the galaxy in a million years.
Even though extinction is a logical cause of nature, completely natural.
It still leaves a bitter aftertaste.
Without extinction we wouldn't exist and neither would most of mammals of today. Extinction is natural and a core part of evolution, in fact, without extinction there would not and could not be much life at all, let alone evolved and advanced life such as primates.

What a beautiful documentary, but what a tragedy of the ever decreasing environment.
0:34 Incredible. Even in the middle of nowhere the wilderness is still polluted by human waste.
Damn...
I thought i was the one who noticed 😅
The ocean/rivers wash it up to the shores or mangroves. India is notorious for river and ocean pollution.
Why do I see you everywhere.
It’s only “incredible” to someone who doesn’t know that 90% of the pollution in the oceans comes from Asia, or that most of the world’s most polluted cities are in Sri Lanka’s neighbor India, or that Asians are over 4 billion of the world’s 7 billion people.
I love that you teach me about new animals at the ripe old age of 59! Thanks so much for your compact , informative lessons ;on lesser known species!
My uncle is 90. You're not old.
U old wrinkky
I am amazed to find new songs at the insane age of 37, it's really a miracle
there's plenty more obscure animals out there... age is nothing
I love this comment! ….The compact, informative lessons, on lesser-known species. Yes! 👏👏👏
that cat slowly approaching the fish that was just stuck there was so funny. like you dont have to be sneaky, its stuck.
2:42 looks like they built a small dam and put in the fish to get footage.
"Fine, I'll get my own damn fish"
The cool thing: To pounce on a fish, you have to take water refraction into account...
True, very true actually
I thought that 👍
The fishing cats must have special retina
The brain is an amazing thing. Wonder if the cats are even aware of this or if it's just instinctual.
It honestly depends how deep it is
They're so cute sitting there waiting to get a yummy dinner🥰
Of course, the fish probably don't think they are so cute😂🤷🏾♀️
That Narrater sounds like she’s reading to a bunch of 1st or 2nd Grade kids😝
I love their tiger like ears, the Little white spot on the back that looks like eyes it's so cool! They are fun size tigers!

They are called " mechho bagh" in Bangladesh, which literally means tigres which feed on fish.

Fish horror movie.
To a fish, a cat is a monster... We're used to being the cat.
I had never even heard of the fishing cat before! Thankseverso for this video.
Love for fish is observed in absolutely all domestic cats. Maybe this cat is their ancestor.
A woman swimming alone hears a noise. Stops for a second. She looks around and sees nothing. Continues swimming. Just then, ominous music comes on as we see her legs from below the water.
Sung to the Jaws theme.

I had never heard of the fishing cat before. I'd like to know more about how they've evolved overtime.
This is really fascinating. This really is like getting to watch a transitional animal. It’s a shame I won’t get to see how this cat will continue to evolve.
This fishing cat needs to improvise and try hunting the local fishermen.
how dare they try to get by and eliminate their fishing competition!
Danger Floof I kno right! Disgusting!
Tiger tried that with farmers and failed ... except that one champawat tiger
Keith
A tiger whom teeth was damaged and hunt peoples for the sack of survival vs a tiger who completely healthy but hunt peoples for entertainment. In both scenarios, human lives have equal value.
Now reversing that, human hunter, tiger hunted and which side now is more valuable?

This is why i love animalogic:
I can see many kinds of strange animals and their unique fact. Their explanations is really easy to understand. Love ya😇😇
Yes, the Universe can hear the Cat's Meow...it travels through the Water...
Plot twist - At 4:29 the crew just put the fish on that spot, and setups the lightings and the camera.

When I saw that one fishing cat who’s leg got taken away, limping around through the wild, already likely having a rough life before, now with the odds extremely against it I just broke down and cried.
