What's a "seal" anyway? You know, it's really unclear.

Love this guys style of making a video. My kind of humor. Anyone else hearing a Bill Wurtz similarity? https://youtu.be/Mh5LY4Mz15o

Moving this video to eric3579's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

Oh hell no! This is to entertaining to not sift. The way in which he delivers the information is just great. *promote

If we can't trust BBC Plant Earth, who can we trust?!

Self promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued - promote requested by original submitter eric3579.

jokingly says...

Good info, but I still need to know which one is the seventh seal. It should be avoided.

Fake news that walruses don't live further south than Alaska! I saw a bunch without tusks in Florida.

Movember can be confusing that way.
