00:00 In the wild, natural world, it will not be difficult for us to see that animals being
00:07 in love with each other, and thanks to that, the herd relationship also becomes closer.
00:20 But if this psychological instinct is not met by the opponent, it will become a tragedy.
00:26 As in the case of this lion, willing to kill the lion cub to have a comfortable love time
00:31 with the lioness.
00:32 And they say that sometimes, it's not wrong for the heart to cloud the mind, isn't it?
00:37 But there are very strange species, that when the male has the responsibility of a father,
00:43 it can turn men playful.
00:45 Liberal men become real family owners, and they become wonderful old fathers, lovingly
00:51 taking care of their children.
00:53 But sometimes, even more than the role of a mother.
00:57 Are you curious about those animals?
00:59 Join us to watch today's video about the wonderful godfathers in the natural world,
01:04 to know what animals those animals are.
01:08 The Amazing Godfathers in the Animal World.
01:15 The South American Ostrich The first is a pretty heavy candidate, the
01:20 South American Ostrich.
01:23 The South American Ostrich has a scientific name, Rhea americana, with a medium size compared
01:28 to other ostriches, and often living in the savannas or the wetlands of South America.
01:35 They are known for their polygamy, and the male will raise several families at once.
01:40 It sounds like a bad boy, but a male usually has 2 to 12 wives.
01:46 Although they are not faithful in the monogamy, ostrich fathers are very dedicated in taking
01:51 care and raising their children.
01:54 During the breeding season, the males will gather leaves and hay to form larger nests
01:59 with a capacity of 10 to 60 ostrich eggs, and attract many females to mate and lay eggs
02:05 in this nest.
02:07 After laying eggs, the ostrich father will let the wives go free, and feel free to mate
02:12 with other males.
02:14 At this time, the father ostrich will take on the role of incubating the eggs himself.
02:19 The eggs will be incubated for 6 weeks, and the father will also take care of the chicks
02:24 himself as soon as they come out of the shell and see the sunlight.
02:29 Listen to it, I feel it's hard work for these ostrich lads.
02:33 Male ostriches also often become more aggressive during nursing and may attack any animal that
02:39 tries to approach their young, including the female ostriches.
02:44 This must be one of the most loving fathers on earth, and the way they see the South American
02:49 ostrich fathers take care of their children is very strange, but also wonderful, isn't
02:58 it?
03:00 Number 2.
03:01 The Emperor Penguin Great number two does not know who is number
03:05 one in the emperor penguin fathers.
03:08 Emperor penguins with the scientific name Abendonitis festori, distributed in Antarctica,
03:14 called the emperor because they are the largest and heaviest of all penguins, with a height
03:19 of up to 122 cm and a weight of 22-45 kg.
03:26 Unlike the South American ostrich, the emperor penguins are very loving purple and like to
03:31 be faithful, always mating in monogamy.
03:36 Around March to April every year, this is the time to enter the winter in Antarctica.
03:41 After mating, the female birds will lay only one egg and leave the task of incubation to
03:47 the male bird.
03:48 And the females will go alone to find prey in the sea.
03:53 Each hunt lasts for two months because the distance from the egg laying place to the
03:58 food is often very long.
04:00 It may sound unusual that the hard work of foraging is left to the women, who have just
04:06 given birth, but the parental penguins are not leisurely either.
04:11 Father penguin will incubate the egg in a pouch under his abdomen, hold the egg on his
04:16 feet for at least 64 days and use the membrane on his feet to warm the egg.
04:23 During incubation, the penguin father rarely moves because the incubation must be done
04:27 carefully.
04:29 Otherwise, just the eggs in contact with the ice surface, the young bird in the egg can
04:35 die due to intolerance of the cold.
04:38 After the chicks have hatched, if the mother penguin has not yet returned, the wonderful
04:43 father will take the nutrients, secreted from his oesophagus, to feed the chicks.
04:47 But a job that challenges patience like this, surely not every father can do it, right?
04:54 After the mother bird returns, the father will give the baby back to the mother bird,
04:59 and they take turns looking after and feeding the living and happy family life.
05:05 3.
05:06 Male Seahorses In the past, "motherhood" is a phrase used
05:11 to talk about the mission of a woman.
05:13 But in the case of a male seahorse, the opposite is true.
05:17 You have broken all the rules of conventional reproduction.
05:21 Seahorses scientifically known as hippo macampus are widely distributed around the world in
05:26 shallow seas.
05:27 It can be said that the male seahorse fathers have to replace their wives with heavy labors,
05:34 suffering from morning sickness during pregnancy.
05:38 During the breeding season, the female seahorse will lay her eggs in the incubator bag located
05:43 right in front of the male seahorse's abdomen, like the bag of kangaroos.
05:49 Before entrusting her beloved offspring to the male seahorse, the female seahorse used
05:53 her powers to provide nutrients to the eggs.
05:56 Besides, the bag has the same function as a female uterus, helping to provide oxygen
06:02 and essential substances for the young.
06:05 The bag is small in size but can hold from 10 to more than 300 young depending on the
06:11 species of seahorse.
06:13 With some kind of superpower given by nature, the male seahorse's egg sac has the ability
06:18 to adjust, increase and decrease the temperature, blood flow and the water salinity, creating
06:25 conditions for the eggs to adapt and develop, and have the best development.
06:31 After about 20 to 30 days, the eggs will be fertilized and nourished.
06:36 At this time, the father seahorse will contract the abdominal muscles to give birth to the
06:40 baby seahorses.
06:41 A male seahorse can give birth to the baby seahorses on the same day and carry on with
06:47 the next litter as soon as the female has accumulated enough eggs.
06:53 The male seahorse is an amazingly powerful father, and at this rate, we're going to
06:58 end up in a population explosion.

07:04 Male Monkey Marmoset In addition, the male marmoset monkey, also
07:09 known as the pygmy marmoset, is also considered a great father figure in the natural world.
07:16 Male marmoset monkeys, scientifically known as pygmy marmoset, usually live in the forests
07:22 of South America.
07:24 This monkey is the smallest of the monkey families, with an average size of 11.5 to
07:29 15.5 cm, a tail length of 17 to 22 cm, and weighing only about 85 to 140 grams.
07:41 Male marmoset monkeys have very sharp eyes and quick feet.
07:45 They can jump very quickly, and accurately so when in danger.
07:50 They can escape very quick, and they are curious, playful, and active throughout the day.
07:55 They usually live in groups from 5 to 15, including the parents and the children.
08:02 Each group will live and protect its own territory.
08:05 Although he has a very petite appearance and a mischievous personality, when he is a father,
08:11 the male marmoset monkey exudes a mature look, and looks like the head man in the family.
08:18 When being fathers, except for their mate, the pygmy dads tend to ignore all the snoopy
08:22 actions of other pygmies.
08:25 Monkey wives must be very happy, because they never have to worry about meeting competitors
08:30 in the field.
08:32 The gestation period of female monkeys is usually about 136 days.
08:36 When the female gives birth, the male monkey cleans the baby's body by licking around
08:42 it.
08:43 This will help keep the baby monkey safe, because the risk of death at birth in female
08:47 monkeys is very high.
08:50 These fathers also often hold, brush, and feed their babies, from the moment they are
08:56 born.
08:57 Both dedicated, brave, and resourceful, pygmy dads deserve to be one of the most caring
09:04 fathers in the whole world.

09:07 Darwin's Frog Another great dad, the sun man is Darwin
09:12 the Frog.
09:13 The Darwin frog has a scientific name, Rhinoderma darwini, named after the scientist who first
09:19 discovered it, Charles Darwin.
09:22 The frog species mainly lives in the rivers and the streams of Chile and Argentina.
09:27 During the breeding season, female frogs will lay eggs in the area with the moist leaves.
09:33 Each time, they will lay an average of about 40 eggs.
09:37 The male frog's job is to stay by his side to guard and protect until the embryo is formed.
09:44 In order to ensure that the tadpoles develop well and avoid any danger from the outside,
09:49 the male frogs will swallow these embryos and store them in a special pouch located
09:54 in the larynx.
09:55 The bag is like an incubator, and the tadpoles will stay inside the cage and be nourished
10:00 by nutrients secreted from the bag wall.
10:03 About 60 days later, when the tadpoles have grown into complete frogs, the frog father
10:08 lets the children enter an independent life by squeezing the incubator bag and using the
10:13 force to vomit the babies out of the mouth.
10:17 Thought that they would be taken care of, but as soon as they saw the sunlight, the
10:21 baby frogs were immediately dropped into a cool stream by the father frog, so that they
10:26 could begin to adapt to a new environment and learn new things.
10:31 The First Lesson of Survival
10:34 In the natural world, besides the typical fathers mentioned above, these are countless
10:39 other wonderful fathers who take care, nature and protect their young with great care and
10:46 deep love.
10:48 Boundless love.
