Video Summary
AI GeneratedA comprehensive tour of the Jacksonville Zoo and Botanical Gardens, showcasing a vast array of wildlife from manatees and gorillas to endangered Eastern bongos. The visit blends animal observation with a focus on zoo infrastructure, conservation efforts, and design inspiration for personal aviary projects, concluding with a look at local Florida species and interactive exhibits.
We are here. My goodness.
Oh, look at how beautiful they are.
Whoa, that guy's cool.
Oh, little baby bunny.
Oh, look at those lips on that thing.
Goodness.
Look at how big these parkour are.
He's got the tongue out. He's chilling.
Oh, yes.
Oh, that's incredible.
Rhinos.
Jumbo Koi.
We made it!
Five hours.
Left at five o'clock this morning.
Five hours we made it.
Nobody's in there.
No one's in there.
Sorry.
That was your monkey. You're practicing it.
I'm practicing. Let's go.
Jacksonville Zoo, baby.
Yo, this place is actually packed.
There's thousands of cars in this parking lot.
I'm flying the drone right now.
And I didn't realize, but the top of the aquarium is actually a whale.
Look, you can see the whale.
Guys, I came absolutely suited up to this zoo.
I mean, tell me if I'm not ready.
I don't think I've ever been more ready.
We're at the Jacksonville Zoo, folks.
We're going to see what kind of animals they got.
I know they've got giraffes.
We're going to be feeding giraffes.
I know they got a bunch of aquariums.
I know they got some big old mammals.
I'm here to get not only a lot of inspiration for building my zoo back at home,
but to see some cool stuff.
So let's head inside.
There's about a seven hour wait, but we'll get in.
We're under the giant pavilion whale right now.
We just skipped the entire line.
We've got tickets on our phones.
With technology nowadays, next level.
Let's go see some.
I see a manatee.
There's the manatee.
This is the manatee pond.
It's absolutely massive.
I can only imagine it's thousands and thousands of gallons.
I can't imagine.
I can't imagine installing that acrylic.
I mean, that is like a foot thick acrylic, windy.
I actually have some inspiration at the farm right here.
This stuff Spencer and I were talking about doing around the aviary.
Instead of real rock, we would take almost stucco.
This is pretty much stucco, just air sprayed and carved out by a talented person.
But there's guys that do that and we've got quotes for it.
So this is just a little hint on the aviary when it comes to rock.
This could be something that we do right here.
Depending on how things work out.
But so far, that's the mission.
Enough of the aviary.
This is it about that Jacksonville Zoo.
Why is there a lifeguard watching over the manatees?
I've never seen anything like that before.
And the swimmers.
There's legit people swimming at the bottom.
They're probably doing some tank maintenance.
That's for sure.
Oh, this is something that I am 100% doing.
Guys, part of the reason we're here today is we always take inspiration.
I know I said this already, but that's why I'm pointing all these things out.
Like this is epic.
It's a simple 4x4.
That's all it is.
And it's got the sign with like a release, the things you do, you know.
Rehabilitation, how we can work, you know.
The rescue missions and everything.
Like dude, I gotta do something like this.
I'm gonna take a picture.
I like that.
Each enclosure with the animal and the name.
Like munchkin.
Kuala Mundi.
Well, where are we?
We are here.
My goodness.
Okay, just.
Oh, this.
That's a primate forest.
I need to go see that.
Savannah blooms that we're gonna feed giraffes there.
We got otters.
Yes, there's Lola.
Wow, we got some stuff.
Penguins, gorillas, bears.
This is gonna be nuts.
Oh, I think our ticket gets us the train ride too, by the way.
Yeah, it is like that.
We get the train.
We get everything.
That's insane.
We're about to see some crazy stuff.
I can't believe I've never been here before.
How?
Wow, that's actually incredible.
The attention to detail is just insane.
That's how you filter probably millions and millions of gallons of water.
And this could even be like for waste as well.
Insane.
I don't know what's going on, but why is everything so cool?
Am I crazy?
Am I just like.
It's a nice little privacy fence.
That is a solid fence.
I mean.
It's pretty sweet.
A man can appreciate a solid wood fence.
That is the design.
That's beautiful.
Drops down to one.
Tough.
Everything's brand new.
They just built this yesterday.
Am I crazy?
Or like everything's so pristine.
The signs.
The landscape.
Unless they just have hundreds and thousands of employees.
I mean.
No, they probably do.
Their budget's a lot more than mine though.
Look at this.
Even the railings are made of painted bamboo.
That's pretty neat.
The attention to detail.
What are those things?
What the heck is that thing?
That looks like a giant pig rat.
It's a North Sulawesi babirusa.
Sure.
Never ever heard or seen one of those in my entire life.
That's cool.
It's like a big old gerbil.
We just walked past a tiger on the way.
There he is.
Tucked up in the back.
She's beautiful.
Oh, he's got a big ball.
Enclosure.
Yeah.
Look at this.
Look at the pond.
Oh.
The branch across.
That's sick.
I think this one's better.
She's just sleeping.
Sleeping in the back.
They're beautiful animals.
Tigers are among the most recognizable mammals on earth.
With their iconic camouflaging black stripes on an orange and white body.
Look how gorgeous that cat is.
It's crazy.
It's actually her 17th birthday today, which is...
Happy birthday.
Happy...
Okay.
What is this?
In here is an enclosure.
That's an enclosure?
Oh, it's a tunnel.
Bro, how do you make that?
That's gotta be fun or something.
How do you make that so good?
That's incredible.
And then there's a pathways down in steel down here.
See, I thought that was something for like kids.
No, that's probably...
That makes sense why there's this.
Kids aren't that dangerous, you know?
All right, there's another lion over here.
Look how many people.
A tiger, not a lion.
Oh, that guy's cooking over there with a long lens too.
Look at Ty.
Ty, show him off.
Wait, do I got competition?
You got competition, dude.
Yo, I'm gonna take him out.
There he goes.
Cruising down.
Wow.
It's coming closer.
She kind of ran down.
There's a lot of people looking at her.
She went to bed.
She's sleeping.
They're all tired.
Probably at night, dude.
At night, they're probably so active.
These are the warthog pigs.
The warties.
Look.
Warty pig.
Named it to the tropical rainforest.
Oh, they're tucked in behind the branch, sleeping down there.
There's one in the tunnel.
Oh, there is.
Oh, he's got a good hairdo.
That guy's got hair over his face.
Yeah.
I don't know what's in here.
Oh.
I gotta go take a look.
Oh.
Oh, yeah.
Look at the little...
With the pig.
Dude, that's crazy.
That's hilarious.
Oh my gosh.
She's so cute.
It's literally little...
Oh, look at this thing.
Oh.
Oh my gosh.
Oh.
Oh, what up, gang?
What up, dude?
Dude.
What up, long slice?
Is this your nose marks?
It's definitely yours.
100%.
Look at those eyes.
Dude, I can't even see him.
He's cool looking.
He kind of looks like an elephant pig.
That's an elephant pig.
Look at the shot I have of his eyes.
Yeah, it's interesting.
He's crazy looking.
It's a cool looking animal.
I never knew I had...
I didn't even know I would want one of these.
This thing's big.
Oh, there's his buddy.
All right, out of the tunnel and over here.
That's the warthog.
Maybe we get a better view.
Oh, yeah.
Nope.
And here we have the hornbill.
And then there's another hornbill over there.
Where is he?
They get big, right?
Dude, they just got animals commingling.
Look at this owl.
This is crazy.
There is a hornbill, a wrinkled hornbill right there.
That bird with an owl.
Here's the owl chilling on a branch right now.
And where's the other one?
They just didn't change the sign out or something?
I don't know.
Look at that.
So instead of the post, they did more wire,
which was another option I had to do the aviary,
but we went post and wood.
I didn't even know kids that young know about Jesse.
Is that Mr. Kipling?
What is that?
No way.
I thought that was my generation.
Dude, that's crazy.
You guys watch Jesse?
See?
They do.
They watch Jesse.
This is the Komodo dragon, folks.
Komodo dragons are the largest living lizards,
capable of taking down prey as large as a deer.
This thing could take a deer down.
Let's see.
Look at that.
Right there.
That lizard would eat a deer.
Anyway, these things only live 20 years,
which is crazy.
Indonesian lands.
I can't wait to go to Indonesia one day.
That's going to be such a fun trip.
I'm going to stay for like two weeks and just see everything.
What are you?
Oh my.
Hey.
What are you doing in here?
Come on in, dude.
The photo booth?
Total due.
Three dollars.
Eight dollars?
It's eight bucks a picture.
Eight bucks a photo.
I got cash.
That's meant to be.
I had eight dollars in my wallet.
I never carry cash either.
Where do we look?
Oh, right there.
We're about to find out.
This is going to be great.
Oh, hey, look.
Here we are.
This is incredible.
Oh, ready.
Oh.
Ready?
We're ready.
Dude, we're ready.
Is this thing serious?
Oh, oh, oh.
I spent eight dollars and I can't even get my picture.
What's happening, dude?
I wanted these so bad for the memory.
Go, go, go, go.
Get in.
I knew I wouldn't give up.
Oh.
Within four seconds.
Oh my God.
So this thing doesn't work.
Oh my God.
Oh, go.
Wait, it's working now?
What is happening?
Go, go, go.
It automatically took it.
So forever, someone's going to have that.
Someone's going to find this.
Oh, yes.
What you got?
Oh, that's incredible.
The first one's us getting in because it was so bad.
Yeah, we didn't even know.
Then we got dialed in.
That last one was crazy.
I'm going to cut all three of these.
These three photos are going to be signed by me and Ty,
and they're going to go into three random merch orders
in the next 24 hours.
So if you haven't, go down below.
Go down below.
Go down below and use the code photo booth,
and you're going to get 10% off your order
and possibly one of these signed by both of us.
Oh, yeah.
Sign that thing, Ty.
Right.
We're rocking.
Look at that.
We got three.
One of ones.
Three of threes, I should say.
This could be worth some money.
Links down below.
No financial advice.
These right here are reef balls.
The reef balls line the deepest tidal zones
and living shorelines to break wave action.
So when the waves are super big,
just like mangroves do prevent the erosion off the bank,
same thing with these in terms of also creating
a massive habitat for millions and millions
of different aquatic life like this right here.
They just cut these and start an actual waster bed,
and then boom, feed stuff.
Also keeps that erosion down.
It's just so cool how things work in nature.
We're at the next animal.
We're lost.
This place is giant.
It's like acres and acres of land on the water too,
which is actually crazy.
That's another fence.
This is fence number two that you could just simply appreciate.
That's incredible work.
A bamboo with an aluminum frame fence.
That's just something you can really learn to appreciate.
A bamboo fence with an aluminum.
There's also a lot of things that we literally didn't even show
that were just so simple,
but something to be appreciative of how nice it was at this zoo.
Jumbo koi, yeah.
Look at that.
Giant.
Look how big that koi is right here.
Oh my goodness.
This guy's huge.
What's up, bro?
I think so thick.
He's chunky.
I'm surprised they don't have more like orange ones, bright orange.
They're all dark, but super, super cool.
I love big koi.
We literally just finished the koi pond at the house.
Can't wait to get some or at least grow mine that we just got out like that.
Guys, we're on a train.
I did not expect this to happen today.
I didn't even know they had a train.
I don't know where it leads, but let's enjoy.
My alley, the QT ponds.
It's holding tanks, grow out tanks, QTs.
All the meals.
400 unique diets daily.
400.
That's so many diets.
I'm doing like five.
That is an animal enclosure, by the way.
Behind that gate is an animal.
Behind that wall is an animal.
What's in here?
That's why.
Silverback gorilla.
That makes sense.
That's why the gate's so big.
Holy smoke.
Wow.
That's awesome.
This is the manatee critical care center right here.
Behind it is the ponds.
They've rehabilitated and re-released 37 manatees already, which is awesome.
By the way, this thing is, it's older.
It's from the 19th.
They built this.
You said 1914?
Yeah.
1914 it was established.
That's an old zoo.
Bro, how does it look so new?
They must have just redid it.
Well, that train only took us to the main area of the zoo.
I thought it was going to take us through like a safari or something.
No, we're in a totally separate part with a lot more animals though.
Guys, this is the old entrance to the zoo.
Look, no one's over here.
It's completely empty.
You used to enter here.
This is literally where you would scan your ticket.
We were seeing everything so new because it's literally brand new.
This is the old entrance, probably built in 1914.
They've maybe done upgrades from there, but this is so cool to see.
That's where you walk in, completely abandoned.
I guess abandoned wouldn't be the word, right?
Unused.
Aviary double entrance.
I like that door.
We are now in the aviary and someone just got some merch.
Let's see who it is.
It is a big shout out, Brady Thrasher.
Cool last name.
Got an otter plushie.
Bang.
I actually got three otter plushies.
Wow.
Well, we're in here.
These things, what?
We're in an aviary now, officially completely covered in.
Yeah, quite a diet those things have.
There's literally like mashed beef and fish.
Up on top of the waterfall, there's actually spoonbills, which are like here in Florida.
We get spoonbills, flamingos.
They literally look like flamingos with just a flatter bill.
Here's a picture of one of their bills.
Those guys are up there with a nest and it looks like the moms are cleaning the babies off.
It's pretty cool.
Look at these things.
Who the heck are you?
They look like vultures with a long neck.
Like an ibis vulture.
There's a duck.
See if he comes out.
Oh, look at how beautiful they are.
Whoa, that guy's cool.
Look at the turtle over here.
There's actually a turtle chilling up on top of the moss there.
I think this is the primate section.
Hence why we're getting some height here.
We got lions.
Oh, what?
That's right here?
It's an African lion.
Look at them.
There's two beautiful ones right there.
Girls.
That makes sense why they both look like girls.
The male is laying down so you can't even see that mane sticking out.
Beautiful though.
Both sleeping under the tree in the shade.
Really nice large enclosure.
Huge pond.
Super cool.
We got elephants in the distance.
Look at him.
He's carrying hay right now.
He's loaded up.
That's sick.
If you're looking at the elephants, you will get up much closer to them a little later.
What does it look like on the long one?
That's insane.
That thing just grabbed a big bundle of hay and brought it into the shade and now is taking bites.
He was like, I'm not eating.
Oh, he did.
He's sitting there eating it now.
He loaded up.
That's crazy.
They're smart.
They're brilliant animals.
I'm sure we'll make it down there.
We're walking on the path right now at some point.
But look at all those flamingos.
Look at them all.
Mountainsides in Kenya.
They are extremely, extremely critically endangered.
These are extremely endangered.
Eastern bongo.
70 in the wild?
Wow.
The eastern or mountain bongo.
This is a big viewing area or a big area.
You'll probably have other viewpoints as you go around.
Well, thank you very much.
If you don't see them here, you'll see them over there somewhere.
The eastern bongo.
Both of these guys, yeah, both of these guys have horns, male or female.
Interesting.
When you get over by the rhinos and see the kudus, only the males have horns.
If you guys want to see some extra content, stuff that you see before YouTube,
or even just simply different stuff, well, I'm Snapchatting this entire experience as well.
So go follow my Snapchat, Juno Paul, and you'll see all the daily snaps.
I post every single day on Snapchat.
We're not walking past this and not going inside.
Reptiles.
Now, a lot of these closures are pretty big and the snakes aren't always that large.
So they're hard to see.
Somewhere even under rocks.
But all in all, beautiful enclosures.
And over here, my goodness, that's a giant.
That's a snake.
Look at that.
That's a snake.
A gigantic rock python.
Absolute monster.
Look how dark he is.
Looks identical to the Burmese.
Yeah.
Looks identical to the Burmese.
There's the elephants.
Far back.
Bob's over here cooking.
Little Bob.
Shout out Bob in the comments.
He needs to change his name to Encyclopedia.
He's knowledgeable.
Shout out Bob.
Comment W Bob in the comments for sure.
Now we're talking.
We got a zebra.
I love zebras.
As a matter of fact, Uncle Ben just got a zebra.
Urban Rescue Ranch.
He got a dang zebra.
He's rolling.
He's rolling around right now in the dirt.
He's doing a dirt bath.
I've never seen anything like that before.
It's like a, well, I mean.
It's a donkey with stripes.
It's really a donkey with stripes.
It's a horse.
The horse do the same thing.
Just rolling around.
What kind of license do we need for this guy?
Dude, imagine.
I don't know.
That would be dope.
I don't even think it's that hard.
But nope.
They're apparently really mean.
They're mean.
Zebra.
And they are.
It says right here about 80 stripes covering their body.
80.
Down the walkway.
We got some birds up in the tree.
I don't even know what the heck those are.
And there's some more birds out here,
but this is a gigantic acres and acres and acres of property.
Oh, that's what this is for.
This is a rhino enclosure, folks.
I was sitting here.
What is this possibly for?
Rhinos.
They're right there.
They're hanging out under the tree.
There they are.
They're far.
But good thing is we have a lawn.
Look at this vulture.
That thing's huge.
It's down there.
Absolutely monstrous.
That skull in the enclosure really fits the vibe.
Look how thick that thing's neck is.
It's like Camp Cannon's house.
That's a big old Aldabra.
The giant tortoise.
It's a big tort.
Yeah, and it actually gets so much bigger.
That's the crazy part.
These suckers are found off the coast of Africa,
living over 100 years at times.
And the males can get up to four foot.
In length.
Absolute monster of a tortoise.
All right.
I don't know.
This has got to be top three zoos,
if not the best zoo we've ever visited.
Both quality and animals.
They have everything here.
The only thing they're lacking is aquarium.
I don't know if we just haven't got there yet.
Or yeah, I don't know.
Aquatic life is dry as heck here.
So that's why I think I'm going to bump it to three.
But as of yet, right now, it's ranking pretty high.
Keep left for general viewing.
Keep right for feeding.
I have no shot of waiting in this line.
Sorry, folks.
Yeah, that's probably like a couple hours to feed a giraffe.
I'll go see him.
Pretty cool, though.
He's hungry.
Bro, this is insane.
Look at them.
Wow.
Here he comes.
The next one with his tongue hanging out.
He's got the tongue out.
He's chilling.
Look how cool this is.
The rocks.
A bunch of giraffes.
They're all hugging trees.
Like literally, their necks wrapped around a tree.
For $175,000, you can get a baby.
Really?
I think it's like between that and a quarter mil.
But yeah.
Well, folks, that is a giraffe.
And now we're working our way back this way.
Right around this corner is the Wild Florida Exhibit.
I'm assuming we're going to see some local stuff.
Some stuff we might see in the wild or we might even have.
So not only is this zoo actually a zoo, but it's a botanical garden.
So people can come here just to relax, simply look at butterflies, birds.
And this is just part of that.
Literally not a single fish in here other than minnows.
Mosquito fish, actually.
And they dyed the water blue.
It just looks pretty.
And there's two statues of elephants behind it.
So there's a lot of cool views in here.
Not only the zoo part.
Enough of the sweetness botanical garden.
We're going to go see some wild Florida animals right now.
Wild Florida, a legacy from Betsy Labette.
Shout out Betsy.
Bear.
Manatee.
Frog.
Gator.
Hopefully we see all four of those.
All right.
Big old alligator.
Of course, the American alligator.
What is a zoo in Florida without one of these?
Or a couple of these?
Gator time.
I love the way this is made.
Right there.
A little ledge.
I can't climb.
One day.
I don't have enough land for these.
I can keep under four feet, but nothing over four feet on the acreage that I'm on.
In Florida, FWC doesn't allow anyone with less than, I believe,
two acres to keep anything over four feet.
And you need at least five for crocs and other species.
So we'll get a caiman instead, is what you're saying?
Yes.
Caimans allow.
Enclosure on this side.
Entrance.
Sweet.
Bunch of the rattlesnake right there.
There's so many enclosures in here.
There's the red rat snakes.
Yeah, we see these all over in the yards.
Burmese python.
Those are all over the Everglades right there.
See those everywhere.
I got beef with these things.
I got beef with these.
I can't even believe one's in an enclosure.
There he is.
A little toad in the back corner.
There's some more little stuff over here, like squirrel tree frog and green tree frog,
which they're tucked up on the rocks.
Look how tiny they are.
See them right there?
But for the most part, a bunch of little snakes and frogs in this entire building right here.
That is an unattended wheelchair, Ty.
Dude, I might need to scoot.
Might need to take that.
Oh, America.
Bald eagle, folks.
Yes.
Oh, he must not be able to fly.
Where is he?
Oh, yeah.
He can't fly because the top is open.
He's over there by the stick.
There he is.
Yep.
Poor guy can't fly.
Oh, dude.
Well, he's probably fully taken out from the wild for a reason because these are really,
really, really protected here in America.
That's a giant.
I wonder how big that thing is.
Jeez.
And the other one's in the back.
This one's got kind of a dark head, though.
The other one's got the real bald eagle look.
There is a black bear exhibit.
This was Betsy, but there's no bear.
She's hibernating.
She's definitely in her house right now.
Yeah, chilling.
I don't blame her.
Probably looks at people all day.
Oh, look.
Here we go.
Can't find the bear?
Don't worry.
Underground den.
I'm in Torpor.
I'm snoozing in my underground den to conserve energy.
Well, homie's chilling in his underground den.
I actually wasn't kidding.
He didn't want nothing to do with anyone.
Yeah, not anyone.
Look, there's the train.
We were just talking about the train with the manatees.
Manatees right here.
No manatee in here, dude.
No manatee in here?
What are you kidding?
It's a lizard.
Come on, Jacksonville.
You're kind of bumping down on the list right now.
I was rating them high.
They're going.
I guess it's actually probably a good sign if there's no manatee,
which means there's no one in there for rehabilitation.
So slow it down a little bit, huh?
Take a break.
I can't believe how much we've experienced today, Ty.
This has been quite the journey.
It just keeps looping and looping,
and we're just somehow finding our way to the same spot every time.
All right, we've made it into Stingray Bay.
We just got to rinse our hands quick,
and after we rinse, we're able to actually feed them.
There's three different species of stingrays in here.
There's going to be the American cow nose stingray,
which is probably the one that we're going to end up feeding.
These guys stick a little bit more towards the bottom.
They're the Atlantic stingrays all over Florida.
And then we have the blunt nose stingray.
I don't know if I've ever seen one of these.
They kind of look the same,
so I wouldn't really know the difference.
Stingray is a stingray.
But yeah, those are the three species that we're going to see
inside this pond.
Guys, look.
They feed silversides as well.
She told me to feed it like this.
Make a fist, and then put it in.
She's going to get it.
Oh, you're a little baby, buddy.
Look at those lips on that thing.
Goodness.
Like a vacuum.
Stingray ray ray.
Look at that waterfall.
Banging.
You're fired up on waterfalls.
Bro, we should make a stingray touch tank.
We say that every time we see it.
I know, because these are sick.
And it's very interactive, you know, for the tours too.
And think about it.
This is really easy.
This is shallow.
I have way more gallons.
Way more gallons.
I have way more gallons than this inside the fish building.
And these are cow rays.
They're very, very simple to maintain.
A lot easier than most stingrays.
We are in the primate forest.
Apes, monkeys, and lemurs.
I wanted to see this.
Look at that.
Oh my gosh.
That is unreal.
I wonder what that looks like from the sky, to be honest.
I wonder.
It's probably.
Well, you saw.
You overlooked.
Oh, the gorilla.
Where's he at?
Oh, give him some.
Yeah, give him some.
I pull up to the enclosure.
I think the foot up really does it.
You like that?
Yeah.
So it's all about the swinging too, the motion.
Yeah, I see it.
Motion of the...
That's what's up.
They're just looking at me, aren't they?
Oh, 100%.
Yeah.
Sorry.
She laughed at you.
I know.
That was embarrassing.
That was a bad one.
He's on his back against his head.
Look at his hand.
His knuckles are massive.
He's got some big fists.
He's awesome.
I love gorilla.
This guy is cuddling a bowl.
He's just got a little bowl on his arms.
And there's another one tucked up in the corner here.
It's little humans.
So epic.
And I think one of the only things that we haven't seen at the farm.
At the farm.
Wow, this is bad.
I need to go home to my farm.
What are you doing?
The only thing we haven't seen at the zoo so far.
Jacksonville Zoo.
By the way, look at that entrance.
That's crazy.
Is the jaguar.
It's like one of the biggest things that we're waiting on.
And that's up next.
Look at that.
Some sort of primate.
I don't even know what that...
We'll find out what it is in a second.
He's got long old...
Yeah, look at that white hair.
Whoa.
Look at that butt.
I don't know, folks.
Comment down below what the heck kind of monkey that was.
Look at this.
I feel like I'm in a different planet right now.
Unreal.
Oh, that's what it is.
Right there.
Angolan.
This is the jaguar enclosure.
It's the logs across this crystal clear blue water.
Look at that.
All the mollies in there.
There's so many mollies up in the algae over there.
Thousands of them.
But I don't see any jaguar yet.
He might be around this other side.
Well, this is probably why we don't see it.
Look how big the enclosure is.
That's on the other side.
He's all the way around there.
He just keeps going.
And he could be anywhere over here.
Dude, they got good camo.
Yeah.
We're never going to find this guy.
No.
Can you see him from over there?
Barely.
Oh, yeah.
I got him.
He's sleeping in the back.
Oh, he's snoozing?
Snoozing.
Right in the sun.
Beautiful, though.
The colors are just gorgeous.
Hey, guys.
Look at Ty and the gentleman to the right.
Our 1V1A.
Mine looks better.
Mine's better for sure.
Dude, he's beefing.
He's talking so much back there.
No way.
Yeah.
He's like, look at this guy with his little mouth.
Dude, I know.
I got this little lens.
It's ridiculous.
He's got a big lens.
How many millimeters is that one?
100 and 400.
Dude, what is this one here?
We're only at the 200.
Oh.
There's a little squirrel monkey up there.
That's actually the monkey that I want.
If we ever get monkeys at the house, we're getting two of these.
Maybe more.
Maybe more, depending on the enclosure size.
Oh, yeah.
Check this enclosure out.
Another big old acrylic window, half water.
And we got the cappies.
Cappie Barra.
It's a giant anteater.
Dude, that is crazy.
Come on.
Turn to your side.
There it is.
Look at that thing.
That's crazy.
I can't see it.
Didn't see any cappie barra, but we saw a gigantic anteater.
That thing's tail is huge.
Another aviary, folks.
I feel like this place just literally never ends.
Just keep on walking through everything.
Take a look at every different species inside of this aviary, the whole way down.
I mean, dude, we got macaws.
We got literally paku, big old turtles, tortoises, you name it.
Oh, Marvin.
There he is.
Dude, look at that jumbo paku.
Mondo paku.
Oh, my gosh.
They're monstrous.
They're all under the dump.
Look at how big these paku are.
Those are jumbos.
There's a couple really sick, unique turtles kind of basking up in the sun as well in this
enclosure.
Look at this.
Look how clear it is.
I would love to know how.
Well, we saw earlier the filtration for all this.
Never mind.
That is no Lola.
That's for sure.
That is a giant otter.
Look at him.
He's doing spins.
He's stoked.
He's doing spins.
That thing is gigantic.
There's one completely sleeping up there, and then this guy over here doing little spins.
Here's a little bit about the otter, if you guys want to pause that.
Bang, a giant otter.
Oh, yeah.
There they are.
Good old Florida flamingo.
Those things are so pink, and it's a basic fact, but if you didn't know how flamingos
got that color, it's from the krill that they consume.
In all these little banks of the ponds and lakes, there's a lot of little tiny ghost
shrimp.
And when they eat all that shrimp, all the shrimp, those colors is what forms the pink
specific thing inside the shrimp.
Do I know the scientific word for it?
No, not that educated on flamingos, but that's what it's from.
Their diet is naturally rich in carotenoid pigments, specifically from consuming brine
shrimp, algae, and larvae.
And then it just creates pinkness.
There they go.
Bye, flamingos.
Speaking of the end, the end leads us into a gift shop, and my goodness, do I go crazy
in these.
These are my favorite places ever to go to in zoos.
It's the whole point I come, actually.
I'm literally making these.
I'm making these right now.
They will be here any day.
Any day.
Snapchat will be the first ones to know.
I'm not going to lie.
Mine look better than these.
I got the one in Honolulu.
It's the same shirt.
That's sick.
They literally copy and pasted this piece of art.
So maybe I don't get that one.
Maybe I'll get like this one.
Maybe it's cool.
My mom would love this.
It's perfect.
It's meant to be.
I'll get my mom this one.
Look at that.
Sick.
Yeah, I got two shirts.
That's what's up.
I didn't get my dad the gorilla shirt.
He's a beast.
Oh, yeah.
All right.
And then there's Pop's shirt.
Everyone gets a shirt.
Speaking of merch and plushies.
