00:05For wild animals
00:07Survival is the whole meaning of life
00:12In order to secure its place in nature
00:15Various animals embark on amazing adaptation paths
00:19Evolved unique abilities
00:22Variations in anatomical structure
00:25This enables them to survive in the harshest environments.
00:32But our forests have the richest flora and fauna on Earth.
00:40High in the trees of this hidden world
00:44It provides a home for half of the plants and animals.
00:49But surviving at high altitudes requires a unique set of skills.
00:56Space is a precious resource in the jungle.
01:03Every living thing faces its own battle for survival.
01:10To establish oneself in the canopy of a tree
01:14To have a place in this prime location
01:17We must fight
01:47Mingjing needs your support. Welcome to subscribe to Mingjing.
01:55There are more than three trillion trees on Earth.
02:01Every tree has its own story.
02:06From groves to the Earth's great jungle
02:13These environments nurture a wide variety of iconic species.
02:21Life exists in every tree canopy.
02:30Some animals are even more surprising.
02:33They decided to make their home among the trees.
02:50Snells Islands, New Zealand
02:53The turbulent coast
02:57Home of a very unique bird
03:08The Four Islands Huangmei Penguin may be a species that thrives in the sea.
03:12But they are on the wooded islands
03:16Xiongcheng's unique lifestyle
03:20Back from a busy fishing trip
03:23The female penguin is hurrying back to her nest.
03:26Preparing to feed the baby penguins
03:35But these penguins' daily commutes are not unusual.
03:51First, they must overcome what
03:55steep rock walls
03:59Although it has no forelimbs
04:01But penguins are surprisingly good at rock climbing.
04:09But the arduous journey is not over yet.
04:14Now they must venture into extremely unusual territory.
04:19Especially for penguins
04:24Their home is hidden deep in the forest.
04:31These penguins have carved out a large colony in the forest.
04:36They sought refuge there
04:38Nesting Life
04:46This secret world provides a safe place to raise cubs.
04:50Dangers far from the coast
04:54But their journey is not over yet.
04:59They searched for their way home in the maze-like forest.
05:05They need to remember every turn.
05:14They finally made it home safely.
05:20After trekking one kilometer inland
05:23The penguin arrived at a forest clearing.
05:26Its mate and cubs are waiting for it.
05:40After a spectacular journey
05:42It finally arrived home.
05:47The little guy was very happy to see it.
05:55In the next few weeks
05:56It must repeat this formation every day.
06:00But for this safe haven in the forest
06:03This is only a small price to pay.
06:12For penguins
06:13This environment may be unusual.
06:16But the trees provided cover for the penguins that lived on the ground.
06:23But most animals that live in the forest
06:27Ability to climb
06:28Surviving high in the tree branches
06:31Move freely among the trees
06:34This skill requires special applicability.
06:44In the jungles of Palawan Island, Philippines
06:47Hidden within is a strangely shaped animal.
07:01This bear is looking for food.
07:11It is due to its solid body
07:13And little pom-pom-like ears
07:15Also known as panda
07:22But it shouldn't live on the forest floor.
07:28It is more relaxed and carefree among the branches.
07:40Its semi-retractable claws
07:41When it climbs tall trees
07:43It seems easier
07:52It also has a tail that's good for catching me.
07:56There are only two types of carnivores in the market.
07:58It has this unusual characteristic
08:01The tail is like a fifth hand
08:04Helps to grasp balance
08:06And walking among the tree canopy
08:11Xiongli's face looks like a cat
08:13Body like a bear
08:14Tail like a monkey
08:15With a long, curlable tail
08:18They became excellent climbers in the forest.
08:21While walking through the forest
08:22The tail can serve as another arm.
08:25Even while sleeping
08:27Its tail can also be firmly fixed to the tree.
08:30besides
08:31Xiong Li's ankle can rotate 180 degrees to grip.
08:34Even climbing down a tree headfirst
08:37The movements were also steady.
08:40What's most unique about bear pears is their smell.
08:42It smells like buttery popcorn.
08:44It can mark territory and warn rivals
08:56But it thrives in the tree canopy.
08:58Thanks to its keen sense of smell
09:03It smelled a delicious feast
09:08Its powerful, large mouth makes it easy to tear open tree bark.
09:12Exposing the larvae hidden underneath.
09:19fruit
09:20Birds and small predators are on its menu.
09:26But now it smells its favorite scent.
09:35bird eggs
09:53Long, sensitive whiskers and natural agility
09:57Helped it find this
10:00Delicious food hidden high on the branches
10:07In fact, they rarely go to the ground.
10:13Xiongli's body structure and agility
10:15They were perfectly adapted to life in the tree canopy.
10:28Bear pear
10:29Choose to stay in the tree
10:31away from the forest floor
10:40For the tree-like animals of Cambodia
10:44Seasonal floods
10:45Making them basically unable to move around
10:52But for one of the world's largest snakes
10:55That's not the case.
11:00They are Burmese pythons
11:05After adulthood
11:06This snake can grow to over seven meters long.
11:09Weight over 130 kg
11:16The life of every Burmese python
11:18It all started in the tree canopy.
11:22Without the food and protection provided by trees
11:25They rarely have the chance to grow to adulthood.
11:33But once they reach adulthood
11:34They will become deadly ambushers.
11:39They have an amazing sense of smell
11:42Chemoreceptors on the tongue
11:44To detect the scent of prey
11:48They can also rely on heat receptors on their lower jaw.
11:51To determine the exact location of the prey
11:57Cambodia's several rainy seasons each year
12:00It will make the forest floor
12:01Submerged in water for several weeks
12:05Since there was no prey nearby
12:07It needs to be moved to another tree.
12:13Fortunately
12:15It has its own special skills
12:25But from such a long distance
12:27It needs to rest.
12:31When floods occur
12:32It faces a very open body of water.
12:39No land
12:39There is a risk of drowning.
12:50Fortunately
12:51Where is the water?
12:53Where there are fish
12:57There are fishermen
13:05Myanmar Alliance has discovered a potential opportunity.
13:11But it must be careful.
13:14Snake hunting is a tradition in this region.
13:40Myanmar Alliance, operating covertly
13:42I found a place to take a breath
13:45It needs to hitch a ride
13:47Go to the nearest tree
14:05This time
14:05Myanmar may have received help from humanity.
14:12But human impact on some of the rarest forest species on Earth
14:16It is devastating
14:19Especially in Asia
14:20The country with the fastest population growth
14:25India's population has now exceeded one billion.
14:32With the development of cities
14:35Agricultural land is being distributed more and more widely.
14:39Many forests
14:41Replaced by plantations
14:50For the animals that call this place home
14:53This is bad news.
15:03This includes
15:05Eat the tailed monkey
15:14These primates live in groups of up to twenty.
15:31The family recently welcomed a new member.
15:37A small cadaver monkey
15:41He will stay with the monkey troop for the rest of his life.
15:44As we get older
15:46They will integrate into a hierarchical society.
15:50But the male monkey's leash is completely different.
15:56This male baby monkey
15:58Ultimately, he had to leave his family.
15:59Join a bachelor group
16:04With the forest
16:05Increasingly fragmented
16:08Find your own territory
16:10It will only get harder
16:17As long as this forest is not destroyed
16:22These trees will provide him and the other monkeys with everything they need.
16:32One-third of the land is covered by forests
16:40They are crucial to the health of the entire planet.
16:46Forests can regulate the climate
16:49Producing oxygen needed for all species to breathe
16:56However, some animals go further.
17:00They not only depend on forests
17:03Still living inside the tree
17:09Deep in Sulawesi, Indonesia
17:12A very rare bird lives there.
17:15Unique to this region
17:19Kansai Bird
17:22This bear-bird is not alone.
17:25Its mate was just a few meters away.
17:30But the female bird carefully hid out of sight.
17:33Hiding in the tree hole
17:41It jumped in on its own.
17:43Then seal the entrance with a clay-like mixture.
17:46The mixture consists of food, feces, and feathers.
17:52Everything is for security reasons.
17:55There were also two baby birds inside the bronze container.
18:01Because the entrance to the tide is very small
18:03The predators could not enter
18:06But this also means
18:07The female bird is completely dependent on her mate, Xiongcun.
18:15The male bird diligently forages for food.
18:17And return it to the female bird
18:20Five-flowered fruit is their main food.
18:31For the ever-growing family
18:33It flew off to find more food.
18:35The bear-like insect can reach a length of 15 kilometers.
18:37Only to find the most ripe fruit
18:55Year after year
18:56The pair of Kansai birds will return to this forest.
19:00Even in the same tree hole
19:02Breed more chicks
19:10The Kansai bird built a fortress on the tree trunk.
19:13To protect family
19:18But other animals consider trees as a protection for 600 million species.
19:27Madagascar Forest
19:30There are all kinds of wild animals here.
19:39In this fiercely competitive world
19:43Survival requires extraordinary skills.
19:51Therefore, the animals on the island have developed a wide variety of defense strategies.
20:01But there is one type of animal that is almost impossible to spot.
20:26Night Tail Shelter
20:29This reptile
20:30You can lie there without moving all day.
20:34They might even choose a tree that suits them.
20:37A tree that matches the color of itself
20:41Nightfall Shelter is hailed as a master of disguise.
20:44It looks like tree bark
20:47Its skin is composed of many small flaps.
20:49These small petals help it disperse the shadow.
20:52Its outline is almost invisible to predators.
20:56Night Tail Shelter Skin
20:57It can also turn yellow
20:59orange color
20:59green
21:00And pink
21:02Despite its powerful camouflage skills
21:04However, it cannot guarantee lifelong safety.
21:07They still face a strong threat from the pet trade.
21:15They have evolved rough skin
21:19Helps to conceal one's figure
21:22Despite being nearly 30 centimeters long
21:26But they are true masters of disguise.
21:33For Night Tail Shelter
21:35Blend into the forest of life
21:37It provides them with ultimate protection against predators.
21:44But trees can also help animals find love.
21:55Deep in the high place
21:56air superiority
22:00Another unique species in Madagascar
22:03Using branches to help them choose a mate
22:13It is evening now.
22:14The island's apex predators are hunting for food.
22:25This is a male lynx.
22:26Searching for its favorite prey
22:32lemur
22:37But food wasn't its only concern at that moment.
22:42Now it's a fertilization agent.
22:44Speaking of dating games
22:47Females of this species are very difficult to catch.
22:54This female lynx
22:56Deep in the forest floor
22:58Fifteen meters
23:02It chose a branch
23:04Not only can it support its own weight
23:06Also, add the male's weight.
23:13If it agrees
23:14It will attract males.
23:18But if it does not meet the standards
23:20It will push onto a thinner branch.
23:23It makes males afraid to approach it
23:29Male horse-crawling civet
23:30The female civet cat relies on the possibility of falling from a high tree branch.
23:33Threat
23:33To help yourself choose a spouse
23:42But another type of male summer animal
23:45No fear of heights
23:52In fact
23:54In the damp forests of Central America
23:59An animal in the name of love
24:02In an ancient and romantic way
24:06He jumped down from the treetop on his own
24:15It's the rainy season now.
24:17The forest was full of life
24:19This male gliding tree frog
24:22Confidence greatly increased
24:30During landing
24:31Its broad spectrum resembles a parachute.
24:34It can slow down the rate of descent.
24:43Before coming down from the treetop
24:45It had been waiting for the heavy rain to come.
24:51There is only one reason why it came down.
24:56Reproduction
25:00The tree frog's path to love is arduous and long.
25:03Female tree frogs are distinguished by their voices and size.
25:05Choose your preferred male
25:07The male tree frog, on the other hand, will have to use all its might.
25:10Defeat other competitors
25:13The call of a tree frog can exceed 80 decibels.
25:16Louder than a chainsaw
25:17This is because of their vocal cords
25:19One centimeter long
25:20It accounts for one-fifth of the total body length
25:23Once you select someone with high looks
25:25A student from No. 1 Middle School with good singing skills
25:26The female frog will carry the male frog on her back.
25:28Searching for the ideal animation
25:30Along the way, they also had to separate the other tree frogs from their group with the driver.
25:34Take a few more rounds
25:38But it's not the only one looking for a mate.
25:44Gliding tree frogs take advantage of the cover of night
25:48Gathered on the forest floor
25:51Once on the ground
25:52The bear frog began to help the hiding female frog.
25:55Sing a serenade
25:58Now it's the female frog's turn to act.
26:02This female frog has many choices.
26:07But it was heading in the direction of the loudest cry.
26:10Because of the loud shouting
26:11This indicates that the frog was also large.
26:17Two Trees Animal World
26:19All of them are the best choice
26:20But it had to pass through a group of small, eager-to-mating creatures.
26:24Only then can you find the one you like.
26:27Their only chance is a sneak attack.
26:35But none of them succeeded.
26:38The female frog successfully found the largest bear frog.
26:45Now the bear frog needs to prove it deserves to have it.
26:59Tree frogs only leave safe branches during the breeding season.
27:10But another species spends its entire life in the tree canopy.
27:16Feeding, fighting, and mating all take place far from the ground.
27:42They are golden langurs
27:45These tree-dwelling animals live in closely connected groups.
27:53They can reproduce year-round.
27:55However, female monkeys only give birth to one litter at a time.
28:00This made them one of the most elusive mammals in India.
28:07These golden langurs
28:09He spent his entire life in the trees
28:11Rarely set foot on the ground
28:19All the food they need can be found in the tree canopy.
28:24Mature leaves and tender shoots are their main food.
28:30Most of their water comes from dew and rainwater soaking the trees.
28:34leaf
28:37Despite abundant food
28:40However, competition for food remains fierce.
28:49Small disagreements can quickly spiral out of control.
28:53But golden langurs usually choose to escape rather than soybeans.
29:01And so he jumped.
29:11Golden langurs are among the few primates that push their thumbs.
29:15one
29:22An evolutionary adaptation
29:24It helps them swing back and forth in the trees
29:30They have long tails
29:32It can increase balance.
29:34And can easily jump away
29:37Far from the mid-range
29:41But after the battle
29:44They have a very gentle way of reconciliation.
29:51Politeness is their favorite pastime.
29:56And it is often not done alone.
30:05They often greet each other politely.
30:08Connecting with each other's feelings
30:09Relieve stress
30:23These langurs never leave their treetop homes.
30:34But on this remote Asian archipelago
30:36Another primate
30:39Agile skills must evolve
30:42Only then can they survive in completely different forests.
30:47The Philippine coast is surrounded by mangroves
30:52They grow in one of the harshest environments on Earth.
30:56These unique bridge trees and shrubs
30:58A true survival master
31:04Although their roots are submerged in seawater
31:07But it ensures that one foot is on land.
31:10One foot in the sea
31:18Although the rock here is strong enough to wither most plants.
31:23But mangroves still thrive in barren soil.
31:31Their special adaptations allow them to survive.
31:36Mangrove roots do not breathe through the soil.
31:39Instead, it extends from the ground.
31:40Absorb oxygen directly from the air
31:48This massive aerial root system also provides structural support to the ground.
31:55As time goes by
31:56They intercept the sediment as it flows towards the ocean.
32:01Formation of new land
32:03Maintaining coastline stability
32:08This dense forest can act as a barrier against storms.
32:13weakening the power of the waves
32:14Provide safe haven for small fish and beetles
32:23To a large extent
32:24The residents of the mangrove forest live happily together.
32:30But one species has already learned to take advantage of this strange environment.
32:40Philippine tamarinus dominate the mangroves
32:46This monkey troop has more than sixty monkeys.
32:52Each monkey has an extremely long tail.
32:56Longer than the body
33:03These primates had to adapt to this unusual situation.
33:07Surviving in underwater forest environments
33:11Unlike animals in other places that stay high in the tree canopy
33:16They feed on fallen fruit buried in the mud.
33:20Also, be careful to avoid the uneven mangrove roots.
33:31But during low tide
33:33Their appetite will change
33:35They turned into a group of crab-eating monkeys
33:43This adult monkey searches for prey in the swamp.
33:49Experience told him
33:50This feast might provoke a counterattack.
34:03But it's worth the risk.
34:19The little monkey also decided to do it himself.
34:35But it must build confidence.
34:42Absolutely right
34:43This is a very difficult skill to master.
34:55Now all you need is a seed
34:57That will satisfy you.
35:04These deterred the cunning primates
35:06Find a way to make full use of this unique forest
35:09The way to survive using all resources
35:15Once you master the shoe-catching technique
35:18The monkey forest has enough resources for this little macaque to use.
35:28But food is more seasonal in other forests.
35:31Therefore, animals must store food for future consumption.
35:43There is an iconic summer animal
35:46Known for hoarding active food
35:51Deep in the Indian Forest
35:53High above the forest pass
35:54It is home to the world's largest squirrel.
36:04Indian Giant Squirrel
36:09This animal can grow up to half a meter long.
36:12Weight can increase by three kilograms
36:26This valvulper is highly adapted to life in the tree canopy.
36:30Their dark fur protects them from predators.
36:37The tail of the intestine plays a balancing role.
36:39This helps squirrels maintain their balance while eating.
36:51But their most ingenious skill is stockpiling tree seeds.
36:56Build a hiding place in the treetops
36:59They almost never need to descend to the forest floor.
37:09But living at high altitudes isn't just about eating.
37:16These squirrels also enjoy their leisurely time.
37:22For example, Li Mao
37:26This important behavior can strengthen the bond between family members.
37:30It can also repel several pairs of insects.
37:41Squirrels have fully adapted to life in trees.
37:44Moreover, they are found on every continent.
37:48But there are even more elusive forest creatures in the world.
37:56Some of these exist only in the most remote areas of the earth.
38:06Himalayan mountain road
38:09It is the home of one of the world's most mysterious animals.
38:19Red panda
38:23This male red panda is not much bigger than a domestic cat.
38:26Living alone
38:34It spends most of its day eating.
38:40Red pandas are excellent climbers.
38:43In their daily diet
38:44About two-thirds are bamboo
38:46They also eat some small mammals.
38:49Birds, flowers and berries
38:51Because the calories obtained from food are too low
38:54Besides eating and sleeping, they
38:56Doing very little other things
38:58Red pandas don't have a strong ability to digest bamboo.
39:01For a better survival
39:02They must eat a lot
39:04Bamboo tender leaves, buds, etc.
39:06Nutrient-rich parts
39:11Like the giant pandas of the same name
39:14Even red pandas cannot digest it.
39:16Cellulose in most plants
39:21So their food
39:22And it's almost entirely bamboo.
39:27The low-lying areas of these forests
39:29It was all dense bamboo.
39:31They are on Earth
39:33The only place to survive
39:36The only place to survive
39:37However, in the food they eat
39:39Only 24% can be digested.
39:43Therefore, 13 hours a day is required.
39:45For eating
39:47Only in order to maintain sufficient nutrition
39:49Only in order to maintain sufficient nutrition
39:55Once you're full
39:56They then returned to the tree coffin.
39:58Perform important fur care work
40:03They are covered in fur.
40:06Cleaning like a cat
40:08Never be impatient for quick results
40:11They do not eat or eat their own fur.
40:20Only one thing
40:21It can lure them down from high places.
40:27It is highly likely that you will find a spouse.
40:42Now it's time to add some temptation.
40:52It leaves a message of love with its scent.
41:03Despite its perseverance
41:05But effort is unique.
41:09It missed the opportunity.
41:13female red panda
41:15Ovulation occurs within a 24-hour period each year.
41:20It usually happens at the beginning of spring.
41:32It can only hope that this visitor
41:34I hope to pass through here sooner next year.
41:41at the same time
41:42It also has some that eat bamboo.
41:45Competitors in the same category of wines
41:53Although forests are home to many species
41:55A wide variety of food was provided
41:58But it's not always as simple as just taking it and eating it.
