Yes all of them lol. It was a quiet hike until that

Went camping for a night out in the remote Amazon jungle, accompanied by local guides. The next morning we were trekking and heard a strange buzzing and hissing sound. It filled the rainforest and sounded like we stumbled into a witches coven or something. There was loud whooping and whistling, but more than anything - this ominous chorus of sustained droning.

Turned out it was a pack of giant Amazon river otters in the water. These guys get as big as 6 ft. The sound was freaky and they were bearing their fangs at us trying to intimidate, swimming in an agitated manner. No doubt they could have ripped us to shreds if they wanted to. We had higher ground and kept our distance. I managed to take a short video.

After a couple minutes they climbed out of the water and galloped into the jungle. And I mean it when I say galloped. We couldn’t believe how fast they could move on land.

I firmly believe that these are the last animals you would want to come face to face with in all of the Amazon. I would rather face a jaguar than a mob of angry giant river otters.

I actively avoid videos with those awful thumbnails, but I figure it must result in a net gain in clicks.

there are certain species with a darker side—for example, carnivorous caterpillars that eat aphids, butterflies that drink alligator tears, or "vampire" moths that feed on livestock blood. Add to that list the newly discovered "bone collector" caterpillar, which conducts daring raids on spider webs for sustenance, camouflaging itself in the body parts of already-consumed insects to avoid being eaten.

Dude this is natureismetal micro edition!

Yeah I’ve been saying they keep coming from the reddthat instance lol. These < 1 day old accounts whose first and only post is on AskLemmy. After that the post gets deleted. Idk what that’s all about

You gotta make up bullshit excuses for banishing them from the community lol. I watched this whole thing in a Mormon documentary. Always questioned how that works. So these creepy old men take all these wives, even young ones, like young people aren’t going to be crushing on and ogling each other and eventually realizing it’s all rigged

And funny how it’s never the other way where women can take multiple husbands🤔

Whew. He went in! Curious to see who ends up taking Sanders lol (not my team pls)

Russia, huh? I like that chunk of Belgium, Netherlands, France that has it too.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Definitely loss of relationships. Not romantic, but friends and family drifting apart. Wondering how they are, dwelling, trying to figure out where things went wrong.

What a short effective trailer! I’m immediately interested
