00:00Good evening, Kapuso! I am your Kuya Kim who will give you the trivia behind the trending news.
00:11All hail to the new king! It's been a while since the discovery of a new species of King Cobra that can only be found in some parts of Luzon.
00:20Our country is home to the world's longest herbal snake, the Ophiophagusana or King Cobra.
00:29But recently, a new king of the jungle was discovered.
00:32According to a study published in the European Journal of Patsongi,
00:36it was discovered on the island of Luzon that one of the newest species of King Cobra is the Ophiophagus Salvatana or Luzon King Cobra.
00:43Kuya Kim, what is the difference between Luzon King Cobra and other King Cobras?
00:48Kuya Kim, what is the difference?
00:49Kuya Kim, what is the difference?
00:51It was just recently discovered that Luzon King Cobra is endemic or only found in Luzon.
00:55These are big and can grow up to 10 feet and 11 inches.
00:59Unlike the King Cobra that we know, which can also be found in other Asian countries,
01:03the Luzon King Cobra has a narrow or pointed head.
01:05It is lighter in color and has fewer bands on its body.
01:09Our King Cobras in the Philippines are a bit smaller compared to the King Cobras in Southeast Asia.
01:15The banding is one of the most distinct features of the King Cobra.
01:18In Salvatana, it is not that obvious.
01:20Its head is also smaller, which means they also have a smaller exoskeleton on its head.
01:23The discovery of Luzon King Cobra is very important.
01:26We will know how rare and fragile our biodiversity is.
01:31Now, we know that it is super endemic, meaning that it is only found here in the Philippines, not in the whole of Luzon, but only in parts of Luzon.
01:37We have to reevaluate its IUCN status.
01:39Experts are hoping that this discovery will help in the conservation of King Cobra species,
01:44especially according to the IUCN.
01:45The King Cobra is now vulnerable.
01:47Vulnerable is the classification before endangered.
01:49In general, they are really small.
01:52It is possible that the Luzon King Cobra is even smaller.
01:56So, to protect them, the Local Conservation Organization of Wildlife Matters launched the King Cobra Initiative Philippines.
02:02If you see any Cobra, report it to our forum so that we can input it.
02:07We need to know which areas really need antivenom the most.
02:13The answer is not in killing.
02:14The answer is proper human-snake conflict mitigation.
02:18If you encounter the longest venomous snake in the world, what should you do?
02:27If you encounter a King Cobra, don't hurt it.
02:31Stay calm and don't approach it.
02:34Leave any exit point open, such as a door or a window.
02:38Avoid quick movements and slowly move back towards a safe area.
02:43It is also good to maintain eye contact with the snake.
02:46Make sure that you are not afraid of it and ask for help from experts.
02:51Meanwhile, to find out the latest news, tweet or comment,
02:55Hashtag Kuya Kim, Ano Na?
02:57Always remember, the important thing is to know.
02:59I am Kuya Kim and I will answer you 24 hours a day.
03:02Good evening, Kapuso.
03:04I am your Kuya Kim and I will give you trivia behind the trending news.
03:08The sweet smile of a teacher from Bulacan was replaced by sadness
03:12by his computer that was stolen.
03:15How can we remedy our stolen gadgets?
03:23The pre-service teacher from Bulacan, Edlan,
03:25made an effort in making his classroom.
03:28The pre-service teacher from Bulacan, Edlan,
03:30made an effort in making his classroom.
03:32It's so sweet.
03:34But when he was about to make his classroom,
03:37this is what struck him.
03:39His stolen computer.
03:41I was shocked because there were so many stolen gadgets.
03:44As in, there were so many on the monitor.
03:47They were really in the innermost part.
03:49I saw them all.
03:51But why did Edlan's computer seem like a home sweet home?
03:57Kuya Kim, why are things being stolen?
03:59Kuya Kim, what now?
04:01There are so many gadgets in our house that can be a target for theft.
04:04There is a tendency for theft to attract appliances
04:08like TV, computer, laptops, cellphones.
04:11Because number one, it will attract the warmth that the appliance releases.
04:14Number two, they eat near their TV or laptop.
04:20There are residuals left there that will also attract ants.
04:23To remedy Edlan's stolen computer,
04:26I threw it away.
04:28They didn't leave.
04:29I do not recommend.
04:30It's really just physically removing them from the area.
04:34If you didn't remove the chemical ant trail,
04:37the pheromones that they made to go there,
04:39they will just come back because the pheromone trails that they follow are still there.
04:43What was Edlan's next step?
04:45I uploaded it on TikTok.
04:46Someone commented that I put vinegar on it.
04:49If you wipe out that pheromone trail chemical
04:53of other chemicals,
04:54their trail will disappear.
04:58I cleaned it after one day.
05:00They're gone.
05:02But the food they brought is still there at the bottom.
05:05The ones I killed in the blower,
05:07I still see them in the middle until now here on the monitor.
05:11According to experts,
05:12you really need to send the equipment to the technicians
05:15because they need to vacuum.
05:17Blow out or vacuum the organs inside.
05:20Make sure you're eating or make sure your hands are clean
05:22when you're working on your computer.
05:24So Edlan learned a lesson.
05:26Let's be clean around us
05:29and also let's not drink or eat in the working area.
05:33Teacher Edlan's computer is a bit like a house of ants.
05:36But this is really considered a home sweet home of ants.
05:45The Guinness World Record for the largest colony of ants
05:49has an area of 6,000 kilometers
05:51and stretches from the northern part of Italy
05:53to the southern part of France
05:56and reaches the Atlantic coast of Spain.
05:58There are studies that say it reached Portugal.
06:02The so-called colony of ants is made up of
06:05Ginepithema humili or Argentine ants,
06:08the workers of a species that can grow 2 to 3 millimeters long.
06:12Meanwhile, to find out the trivia behind the viral news,
06:15post or comment
06:16with the hashtag Kuya Kim Ano Na.
06:18Always remember, the important thing is to know.
06:21I am Kuya Kim and I will answer you 24 hours.
06:28Good afternoon, Kapuso.
06:30I am your Kuya Kim and I will give you the trivia
06:32behind the trending news.
06:34It's like the feeling of knowing a plane spotter
06:37or those who like to wait for airplanes
06:40to get a picture or video.
06:42He has witnessed the landing of the largest passenger airplane
06:46in the world here in Manila.
06:49He is very happy whenever he sees airplanes.
06:52Since I was a child, I have loved airplanes.
06:55That's why he loves plane spotting.
06:57Waiting for airplanes.
06:59We get videos of airplanes
07:02that rarely go to the Philippines.
07:05Sometimes, when an airplane arrives,
07:07we wait for 4 to 6 hours.
07:09Our excitement is so high.
07:11And Lance is like on a plane spotter.
07:13He has seen the landing of the largest passenger plane
07:16in the world here in Metro Manila.
07:22Airbus 380, operated by an international airline.
07:25It's rare here in the Philippines.
07:27They don't accommodate passengers.
07:30Airbus A380 is the largest passenger airplane in the world.
07:34It's developed by the European Multinational Aerospace Corporation, Airbus.
07:38It has a length of 72.7 meters,
07:40a wingspan of 79 meters,
07:42and a maximum speed of 100 kilometers per hour.
07:45Airbus A380 is the largest passenger airplane in the world.
07:49It has a maximum speed of 100 kilometers per hour.
07:52Airbus A380 is the largest passenger airplane in the world.
07:57It has a length of 72.7 meters,
07:59a wingspan of 79.8 meters,
08:01and a total height of 24.1 meters.
08:03Airbus also has two floors.
08:05It can accommodate 555 passengers in three classes.
08:08First class, business class, and economy class.
08:11If the Airbus has an economy configuration,
08:13it can accommodate more than 850 passengers.
08:16Lance's interest will probably take off
08:18if he sees the largest airplane in history.
08:21But it was destroyed in 2022.
08:25The largest airplane in the world is the Antonov An-225 Mriya.
08:30It has a length of 84 meters and a height of 18.2 meters.
08:33Its wingspan is 88.4 meters,
08:36which is the largest airplane ever built.
08:39The An-225 was designed in the 1980s by the Soviet Union
08:43to carry and load a very heavy part of the spacecraft
08:47that other airplanes cannot do.
08:50It was destroyed in 2022 due to tensions between Russia and Ukraine.
08:55Always remember, the important thing is to know.
08:58I am Kuya Kim, and I will answer you 24 hours a day.
