00:01Hello everyone!
00:02Several million years back, the only creatures on our planet that could intimidate everyone
00:06with their size were dinosaurs.
00:12Nowadays, of course you won't find any of them, but still, there are some species that
00:16are significantly bigger than their brothers.
00:18Wanna see them?
00:19Then make yourself comfortable and look at the screen, for we are about to show you 5
00:23huge animals you probably haven't seen.
00:33Frog
00:34Look, what do you think about this species?
00:36Let us introduce it to you.
00:37This is Goliath, the largest frog species in the world.
00:41Its length, without taking its legs into account, can reach up to 13 inches and it can weigh up
00:45to 7 pounds.
00:47It doesn't actually look any different from a common frog, although maybe you wouldn't
00:51be glad to end up near it, well, who knows what it's capable of.
00:54It is so huge that it can swallow little birds, spiders, toads, some snakes, worms, crayfish,
01:00and other animals.
01:01This species can jump up to 10 feet long and squash the body of its prey with its weight.
01:06Goliath is a very careful beast, so it is almost impossible to sneak up to it.
01:11This frog sees all the movements 130 feet around it.
01:14It spends most of its time on the ground or on the rocks, waiting for its prey.
01:18If there's even a small sign of danger, the animal just jumps into the water and then
01:22waits there for about 15 minutes.
01:24Then it just takes its eyes and the tip of its nose out of the water and, when it's sure
01:28there's no danger, it comes out completely.
01:31And now, we present you the biggest turtle of our planet, which goes by the name of Leatherback
01:36Sea Turtle.
01:37It got its name because of its unusual shell, consisting of small bony plates resembling a
01:41scaly skin.
01:42It's hard to believe, but the average weight of this species is about 1,100 pounds.
01:48Seriously?
01:49Yes, yes, you heard right.
01:51And that's not even its limit.
01:52The largest turtle of this species was found in the Amazon River.
01:56It weighs about a ton, or to be more precise, 2,020 pounds.
02:00By the way, Leatherback turtles are the only ones who, when feeling danger, cannot drag their
02:05head into the shell, because it simply doesn't fit there.
02:08Although it doesn't need to hide, it lives in the water, and earthly creatures do not
02:12frighten it.
02:13If suddenly you have a great desire to take a look at this miracle, we will upset you
02:17a little.
02:18Because of its lifestyle, this marine inhabitant does not often come across human eyes.
02:22Instead, it prefers to plow the sea and emerges on dry land very rarely.
02:26But those lucky people, who manage somehow to see it, are delighted with such a spectacle.
02:32Boar This animal is probably the most desired
02:35trophy of any hunter.
02:37Can you imagine how lucky this man was who managed to get this prey?
02:40The weight of this giant is 1,213 pounds, and it is 6 and a half feet high.
02:45By the way, the animal was discovered by accident.
02:48The beast suddenly jumped out onto the path in the forest and rushed to the man.
02:52Fortunately, the hunter managed to hide behind a tree and shoot him twice, one time in the
02:56cardioid artery of the beast.
02:58It seems like the hunter was unbelievably lucky, for wild boars are usually very ferocious and
03:03aggressive.
03:04And if the animal is wounded, it turns into a real monster.
03:07It crushes everything in its path and has mercy on no one.
03:11In general, shooting such a beast and remaining alive and unharmed is just a pure miracle.
03:15Rabbit Admit it, you also want to squeeze this fluffy little thing.
03:21Well, unless we're talking about this cute animal named Darius, which broke all records.
03:26Today, it is the largest rabbit in the world.
03:29Just imagine, the weight of this eared pet is 50 pounds, while the length of its body is over 4 feet.
03:35Despite its size, the rabbit is very active and it never stops moving.
03:39The owner of this charming fuzzy says that it's so hyperactive thanks to a good nutrition.
03:43By the way, its appetite is simply excellent.
03:46Per day, Darius eats 2 pounds of apples, about 5 pounds of carrots and 2 heads of cabbage.
03:51And the animal is very friendly, sociable and just adores when someone starts playing with it.
03:57In addition, the record holder is growing a worthy replacement, its own son Jeffrey,
04:01who has almost caught up with his father in size and has a good chance of becoming a new champion.
04:07Alligator
04:08Well, rabbits are, of course, insanely cute.
04:11But it's time to take a look at someone more terrible.
04:14For example, at this ferocious and ruthless alligator here, which you probably won't be able to caress.
04:20Just look at its jaws, one of the most powerful on the planet.
04:27You would probably not escape from this beast, although it might seem slow at first sight.
04:32In short distances, these reptiles can develop an astounding speed, up to 27 miles per hour.
04:38So, no matter how much you want it, you cannot hide from it.
04:41But there is also good news.
04:43These animals do not usually attack people.
04:45They do it only for self-defense.
04:47Anyway, we still wouldn't advise you to come across them.
04:50This creature might be in a bad mood.
04:52So, this is all for today.
04:56See you later, alligator!
