    Hi! I know this is very unrelated. Love your channel and find the videos entertaining. Just that, as a person participating in helping dolphins, it's been sad that recently people have started to devalue that. Saying dolphins are evil. Jokes are fun, however they are having a ripple affect. We can't apply human morals to animals. Animals aren't evil for abandoning their young, eating others, using others, etc. They act on own survival and bonding with their pack largely. I just hope people could understand that animals can't share our morals. And devaluing them for acting like animals is so bad. If it interests anyone at all, that talk would be much appreciated.

    Do cats really cause that much damage to the bird world? I kinda adopted the idea that if you're a winged creature that gets caught by a land animal…well🤷🏻‍♀️ stay off the ground, man.
    I do keep my cat's in, but when they were out I would step in if I caught them stalking on a bird. So I'm not all about "Go cat! Kick that bird's a$$!" I just wondered if they're catching as successfully as they wish they were.

    Zoo vet tech here – clouded leopards are absolutely my favorite cats as well, and getting to work with them with medical behavior training will always be one of the top highlights of my career.

    I was waiting for you to mention the palas cat, I love all the cats. And you are actually really fun, I like the unique way you teach people about nature. Good job 👍

    Thank you for including both the metric and imperial systems of measurements! It's very important to accurately measure everything when it comes to the perfectness of cats!

    Yo Casual! You should do a video on chickens. I keep chickens and am getting into breeding them to make a new breed. Been keeping them for about 7 years now.

    There's several different breeds that are wild, like indio gigante, naked necks, Dong Tao, Brahma, modern game, gamefowl, and tons more.

    Honestly they're so interesting to me. I'd love to see a video about them and maybe learn something I haven't already about them. And I have delved pretty deep.

    It's amazing how cats are successful all over the world. They can really adapt to everything. Humans can bring them to random islands or even the fucking Australian outback and they THRIVE. You'll probably have so many more diverse cat species coming from the domestic cat in a couple thousand years.

    You neglected the Scottish wild cat. They are a feature on many clan coat of arms.
    Breeding with domestic cats has reduced their bloodline to 50 percent at best.
    Touch not the cat but a glove!

    When my dad was a kid my grandpa once found a kitten on the side of the road in Scotland one day when he used to drive a lorry, he picked it up and took care of it till he got home where he gave it to my aunt, she raised it, turns out it was a Scottish wildcat and was massive 🤣 according to all 3 the cat was vicious to anything other than my family & it had their neighbours Dalmatian scared, only other rule was only my aunt could pick it up & touch/fuss it whenever she wanted otherwise it had to come to you – her name was Pushka, supposed to mean small cat in polish if I remember due to her small size as a kitten

    Fun fact: If you live in area in the USA that tends to get evacuated due to natural disasters one thing you need to do when returning home is go through your house, garage, shed and any open space to check for Bobcat(s) that may have moved in

    I know how the jungle cat feels. I was enlisted in the US Army and had just finished jungle warfare training before Middle Eastern deployment. I've never stepped foot in the jungle, and wasn't helpful in the Middle East.

    The Asian Wildcat had me pause the vid and look a hard long min at my tomcat Bonito.
    That fricker has the same fur markings, the same beige "eyeliner" the same, nose colour, same eyes, same "sad" expression from the wrong angle. the same dark paws, the same lighter chin. His fur is dense af, he is a great hunter but a scaredy nervouse wrack with every sound that he doesn't know.

    If I hadn't personally fetched him and saw his very much "European Short Hair" domestic cat mother I would have thought that I somehow accidentally got one of those Wildcats :'D
    Still… my dumb lil furball can cosplay as one with very little effort.
