Your deer/coyote footage reminds me of the unexpected results of reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone. They found that the riparian corridors started to grow back much faster than the population decline in the grazers would have predicted. After some study, they realized that the deer and elk would just graze without a threat, but if wolves were merely in the area they would spend a considerable amount of time with their heads up, watching the wolves, and not eating. This gave the brush and grasses a chance to grow and put on the toughened shoots and branches that grazers don't like.
@Wildrosesmyl Рік тому
That's because the Gray Wolf is a Keystone Species. Without predation, another critical Keystone Species, beavers, habitat was eaten and trampled by undulates. So the loss of TWO Keystone Species changed the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem in ways that it could no longer support many of the other native species to the area.
@julietvrensburg Рік тому
I am surprised they were surprised by this. The ecosystem needs top predators. If they aren't any, then the animals will just eat all the bushes and grass... An ecosystem is balanced and needs all animals.
@jscarborough9928 Рік тому
@Juliet Van Rensburg the surprise was the degree to which the browsing was affected. They had predicted that browsing would be reduced proportionally with the reduction of herbivore population. They found that individual surviving herbivores ate significantly less than than they would have without the presence of wolves. It was an important finding, because one of the arguments against reintroduction of wolves was to point out that they wouldn't really eat that many deer and elk and would, therefore have little effect on the health of the riparian corridors.

It's more so that they spend less time grazing in one area with predators around, they keep moving. It's not that they spend more time with their heads up

The fact that all 10 baby ducks survived to maturity is a testament to the great pond you’ve built. They had enough resources to live and grow and do so safely. Great work! I wish more people took this same approach instead of always pushing wildlife to the edge with nowhere to survive. Does have the ability to self abort if the area becomes hostile, dangerous, or resources become scarce. As an act of self preservation, they self abort until next mating season. Having 3 fawns mean resources exceeded plentiful and the environment was as good as it gets if she birthed 3 babies.

I’m in the UK. A year ago, I built a small pond 2.3 x 3m. In my garden. I was staggered at the amount of wildlife that visited the pond. Imo, THE best way to attract wildlife is to provide a water source. The pond is a wildlife pond with no fish as I only wanted to attract insects and amphibians. However much more was attracted. I live in a medium size town in Hertfordshire UK. Great video btw.

i build 3 years ago 4m x 6m with max dept 2m the rest 1,5 m but with water is only 1,5 m covered, and after i planted some water plants i put crucian carp, they even grow bigger and also multiply each year, time to time i fish for fun, no pumps no nothing only food and time to time i add more watter because evaporates
@GriseldaBlanco-kt2to 2 місяці тому
@formicapple2 I agree, im out in Southern California where they complain about drought every year but if everyone dug a small pond it would be a huge resource just as back up water for plants and animals. In India they are doing tons of permaculture water projects to reverse desertification and ponds are one of the most common. Every year when we get crazy rains I just watch all that fresh water flow out to the ocean from where I live near the port, its disgusting how much just flows right out. Our modern society isnt conditioned to think about conservation and natural balance, especially if you live in a city or urban environment.

@@al-aeynani yes that's true but there is so much land all over America and the world that isn't being utilized for anything. Imagine if governments actually spent their money building ponds, reservoirs and grew forest? Instead of patting themselves on the back for giving EV tax credits which ironically pollutes the planet more because building more anything usually pollutes the planet. This pond build is clear evidence that building something natural and self sustaining is far more valuable for people and wildlife. Planting a tree at your home and growing your own food if you have a backyard is good enough.

You should add some sand patches for the owls and other birds to bathe in, they'll be so happy :) You could also plant native plants and grasses to fill in space, it'll create habitat and a good food source for a variety of wildlife like birds, mammals, and a lot of different beneficial insects. You can collect wild seeds or see if your county has seed workshops or other enthusiasts that could help you out with this and keep the costs down. If you have the budget- look into creating a snake hibernaculum as well. Great work, very interesting to see all these animal clips. Cheers

Can’t wait to get my boat out of storage and soak up some wildlife. Maybe bring a few poles, but it won’t really matter by then. Perhaps I’ll make my way thru Alabama just to catch a glimpse of one of George Jones cousins. Sorry to go on so long, just trying to make sure that people who’ve touched me know so.

It's so awesome just sitting there and watching all the wildlife interact. If I had something similar I'd probably spend hours just observing from a distance.
@alainvosselman9960 Рік тому
Man, you're a gem ! Seen one or two of your videos where you had built a smaller pond i believe. Incredible how you put one step towards nature and it returns your love and caring by taking 10 steps towards you. Hats off ! This is more fun and rewarding to watch than the evening news is.

Amazing what you guys have accomplished , you must have a true pride in what you have done for the wildlife in your area,
@Andy2x4 Рік тому
I'm so jealous by the variety of species you have on your pond. You've inspired me even more to renovate our farm pond, although nowhere near as big as yours!

Always love tuning in to see how this is going. Another tree you could consider adding are pecan trees, they should do really well in your climate but will take a long time to mature. I can't imagine what this place will look like in another 20 years with everything grown up, keep it up!

I went here to learn more about pond building, but the wildlife footage/narration was a happy surprise!

Love what you're doing! If all of us tried to give back just a little space to the Earth, we would all benefit! Thank you for sharing
@devonshelton4911 Рік тому
Man I just love watching your videos. It's so cool to see how the wildlife interact with each other. Thats something you just don't get to see. I love how you make habitats for all the different animals to have their own place. It's like the animals strolled upon a fortress for them to live at.Keep up the great content and can't wait to see more.

@BlastingBeaver Рік тому
Watching your pond videos is so relaxing. it's kinda the same feeling you used to get from watching Discovery/National Geographic 🙂Been watching since just before you guy's started filling the pond, and i am still enjoying every minute of it. Thx for sharing this with us. Wish all the best for you and yours.

Land is the most beautiful thing to me. You can create whatever you want as its essentially a blank canvas. Its my dream to have land and experiment in many ways to see what can be created. You did an amazing job with your pound and I look forward to any updates.
@GraceTruth29 8 місяців тому
Thank you for giving these animals a great space ❤
@lostincyberspaceIII Рік тому
You should put in a couple of trees that can grow over the pond a bit, and some shrubby area, I think it would do a lot for the bio diversity. EDIT: I should have waited for the end.

I look for videos of people make natural man made ponds without the plastic. You're the only one. My hats off to you. Thanks for making this now i know its possible
@shereerockdaschel9301 Рік тому
What a wonderful gift to be able to give these animals a nice home to live in. We’re too focused on taking up every wild space on the Earth. I really enjoyed watching this video. 🙏🏼❤️

@timmy2015 Рік тому
Awesome vid sir, It's really cool to see the transformation over time from building it and filling it to adding the birdhouses and crops to bring in wildlife!
@Chaos3183 11 місяців тому
This is like a whole treasure. If you ever intend on addinging anything to it. I'd add an adjacent wetland. The ponds awesmone but at least from the picture there isnt any of the tall grasses that attract wetland birds and insect and such... anyway this looks amazing and i'm mildly jealous :)
@rhoula Рік тому
Unbelievable. I could watch this video over and over again. Thank you so much for sharing. I would love to be part of a project like this and spend countless hours watching the wild life. I own few acres in Oklahoma and I'm thinking about adding a small pond to it. Thank you so much for the inspiration.
@jarretlozano3255 Рік тому
Been here since day one pond build, love to see the progress and the wildlife ! Love to see what y’all have done and would love to come see it if you’re ever up for it ! God bless you and your family and after all this time I wasn’t subscribed until now!
