Pretty insect: In german it is called "Mordwanze". When I was 4 years old I found one in the garden and took it. After a while it pinched me! I will remember that pain all my life...Anyway I still love insects and I love the music you used for this video.
Sadly, I couldn't watch the last few videos (or even comment on them), because you used copyrighted music that is somehow blocked in my country (Germany).
It would be awesome if you could upload no-music versions of videos with blocked music in it, but don't know if I would be worth the effort for you.
It says something like "This video is not available in Germany because it might contain music that has not been licensed by the GEMA".
GEMA is the German equivalent of the RIAA. Maybe their music recognition algorithms gave false positives. In that case you should complain to Youtube.
@kittywhiskerz paralysis I have not heard of - their venom is pretty benign (though painful!) Some Central and South American members of this family can spread a nasty infection called Chagas' Disease, which can kill you (death being a form of paralysis, I suppose.)
@memutic Chagas' Desease, infect the heart muscles, liver, and intestine, and can produce simptoms like abnormal growth of this tissues. This chronic disease causes heart failure and disorders of the digestive tract and can do this along 10 to 30 years. Occurs when this plague bit a person while deposite their infected feces by the protozoan Trypanossoma Cruzi. There is no treatment for this desease. This is more common in poor and isolated communities living in huts made of mud and sticks.
Isn't a big part of your fun in sitting on your ass in a pretty uncomfortable place while waiting for that good shot as a facinating animal is about to reveal it's magic...or not?

In any case: Keep up the good work!

@pullerfizz Hello friend, I haven't used ANY copyrighted music on this channel since 2008 or so... I wonder why it was blocked?

@pullerfizz Very frustrating! I have NO copyrighted material in any of those videos!
memutic 6 months ago
@pullerfizz Yes, now I see GEMA has a dispute with YouTube. But I have copyright to the material, so I don't know what the solution is.
