I honestly don't know. I make videos about what falls into my lap. I love the topic and I think science is a powerful and ignored tool in the argument. I don;t plan to but I didn't plan to make videos in the 1st place. just trying to add intellectual credibility to the basics that I think are ignored. I have 2 videos on the science though.

Wow, great compilation.

I loved the part about the chickens' social communication strategies.

Thanks for sharing this

Maybe one to add is the social structure that parrots have? I used to have a parrot that I took care of (before releasing it into the Amazon) and he loved to talk to me.

I'm not sure if you thought that was funny, or you're trolling.


If you're trying to be funny... you know we hear bacon jokes ten times a day?
Invest in some new material. That's deader than "the cake is a lie".

He's probably trolling. He stated he was vegan, now he's saying he's not and he's doing this kind of jokes.. :O
