What he means is that the poison is actually a molecule made up of amino acids that causes paralysis.
Amino acids can form long chain molecules by joining to each other through "peptide bonds". Poly=many. Therefore a polypetide contains many amino acids.
you see, their young enter through the ears and wrap themselves around the cerebral cortex. this has the effect of rendering the victim extremely susceptible to suggestion
@TheAdmiral about the size of mabey two or three fire ants combined, i think they CAN bite you but i doubt the poison will affect a human very much considering the small dose it exudes. ive never been biten but when theyre on yer hand they just keep backing up and trying to jump away. i'll go get one and let it bite me, i'll tell you how it goes.
holy mofokin ships.. i have ALOTTTT of those ant lions in my shed which is layers only with sand inside... well when i walk in, i see maybe at LEAST 60 or so of those Cone shaped traps.. and so i lean down, cup my hand and Scoop up some sand from the cone and the i can see em clear as day, wiggling and wriggling tryna make cone trap with tha left over sand in my hand.
Fantastic alliteration there man, 'paralytic polypeptide poison". And then finishing off the whole sentence with 'pufferfish'. I like that you've learned your consonant pronounciation skills from Dan Akroyd's "Elwood Blues" character, adds some real vibe to the video.
Thanks for uploading a lot of cool videos. I am really interested on insect/arachnids.. Those vids was really cool. I hope I can lay my hand on those awesome creature. Ant lion is one of my favorite pet XD
The eyes of the adult are beautiful. The larva is something out of a horror movie. You mentioned the poison is more powerful than a puffer fish. Is the bite dangerous to people?
Wow watching this made me think of a kirby game for the n64, there's an enemy that hides in deep pits that looks almost exactly the same! I just realized how sad it is i relate the two together... Pretty cool insect though!
Hey man, I dunno if you mean to do it or not, but you you speak with this deadpan voice that I find hilarious. And at the same time, the content is really intelligent and interesting, which adds even more ironic humour to it. Kudos for teaching me something cool and making me laugh at the same time!
omg wtf, I thought ant lions were weird but it was like the only thing I knew on this video..besides the fcking ants!! that weird praying mantis/dragon fly thing at the end of the video is just odd >>
i think this is how they made 3D pokemon
