    The little lizard trying to run and look like the beetle was just too cute!
  • @WetAdek
    that bombardier beetle just kicking the ants around is one of the funniest things I have seen lately 😂
  • @domad33
    The camera shots never cease to amaze me.

    Funniest moment: "But the hurling habit dies hard..." 😆😆😆
  • @ItsRoronoaZoro
    28:23 The beetle beat 5 other males to get to her just for her to be like "no thanks, not interested" 🤣
  • those bees mobbing the hornet was so incredible!!! they work as as a unified body, they’re so amazing to watch work.
  • @joshmislang799

  • @lonewanderer2277

  • @TQNWildlife-202
    This video serves as a reminder of the fragility of the ecosystems that wild animals call home. The bond between some of these wild animals is truly heartwarming to witness. I'm in awe of the adaptability displayed by these wild animals in their natural habitats.

    "Females are likely to be on a tree trunk." I'll keep that in mind. 👍
  • @Jihane0527
    First I was like let me look at this vid for 2 minutes. How am I already watching for half a hour?😂😂
  • I think the insect that can freeze holds a lot of secrets about life's history. Mountain ranges don't appear overnight - similarly, the animals don't adapt in a few generations. It fascinates me to think about the intricacies of the process to adapt over millions of years as the environment changes. We often say things like "this animal is perfectly adapted to x environment" but that completely misses the dynamic aspect of an environment over millions of years.

    Sorry but the moment I heard Sir Attenborough I just chilled out in perfect contentment. Nature programs are the Beebs best shows ever. Their natural history unit is one of the best in the world. The macro lens work is incredible. No matter what I see on my walk to work, I can't help but smile knowing there's so much going on that I just can't see. There are still wonders to discover. This makes me very happy.
  • @AnimalSOS2024
    love the sounds of nature. We can't lose these beautiful animals.
  • Wonderful photography -- and most of it would have been impossible without recent years' technologies. If only the narration matched the visual aspect. Only Sir David Attenborough is consistently understandable with his unexaggerated but perfect enunciation.
