There's actually a theory that parasites serve a role in regulating the immune system. Some epidemiologists have noted that the rise of autoimmune disorders seems to coincide with the fall of parasitic infections in humans. Correlation does not equal causation, but it's an interesting observation.

@@opheliusluci7992 True. I never said definitively that this theory was true. The question was just asked in the video about what purpose parasites serve in the ecosystem. I'm just sharing something that I heard from a microbiologist recently. The theory states that minor parasitic infestations and low grade infections keep the immune system busy so that it doesn't turn on the body's own tissues. With modern medicine and sanitation eliminating these factors, the immune system loses this check and is more likely to run amok. So not a direct causation, but more of a thumb on the scales, shifting probability.

There are many of parasites in this world. Ones that effect us more than you know. Ik it's scary, but some change our moods and how we eat as well. If a parasite likes certain elements in foods, it will make you crave them. Even help with bad food addiction as when you stop eating said food, the parasite will make you crave it, and also make you feel horrible unless you eat it. It needs it for its survival. Theres ones that also cause balding and also cause those affected to be grumpy and annoyed constantly. Demons are what they truly are... but there are amazing ways to fight them!! One amazing way is with ivermectin! It's commonly used as horse dewormer as horses have very sensitive digestive tracts. So it only kills parasites! There is also Avermectin, which is found in dandelion root, I believe. Ivermectin is a very amazing substance. It's CRAZY how there is no over the counter version for people (that ik of). Luckily, the "horse dewormer" is basically just ivermectin. It's gotten a bad name for itself somehow... but it is truly an amazing medicine. I know of a woman whose mom had limes disease, and she went on a self medicated experiment with ivermectin and (according to her) it CURED limes disease!! A disease known to only be able to be treated... at least, that's what the medical field here in America states. Which, btw, is not built to cure. Just to treat. Because constant medication means for money for them... it really ticks me off😤😡

Really neat that you're doing your best to make sure the environment and weather inside Pantdora mirror's that of the outside world. IIRC, a lot of earlier large scale biome experiments actually failed because there was no wind inside...and it turns out that stuff like trees, bushes, etc actually NEED to be exposed to stuff like wind and harsh weather to become strong and tough.

As a bonsai practicioner I know the importance of such movement. Plant cells are rigid to various degrees .When a branch or trunk moves or is bent some of the cells are damaged. Scar tissue forms to cover the damage and acts much like a cast put over a broken arm or leg. The scar tissue is stronger than regular tissue and causes the new bend to be retained. It also adds strength to area. Strong winds can cause this to happen over large areas of the tree which adds strength to the entire area.

The other answer is the weak and allergic die off in other societies. There has been a recent finding that bacterial infections are key in prompting our t cell response to viruses and cancer, thus as we no longer get scrapes we have weaker response. The solution, however is innert bacteria that triggers it and has shown a massive effect and a universal cure/treatment for cancer and viruses.

So, very true, exposure does strengthen us (see vaccines) but overexposure also weakens us (see any poison or illness).

"Ah what a miracle, it showed up!" As well as being quite transparent through little hints, like the mantis mating story with Green and White reaper.

Wow! “The new order” soundtrack struck nostalgia for me because it was used in the gears of war games from my childhood!

Love this series! Just a small note on parasitism… the mitochondria and gut microbiomes are examples of a mutualistic relationship in which both species involved benefit. In both cases, the mitochondria and gut microbes enjoy protection from predation and the harsh environment, while their host gains access to a new energy source (the mitochondria produces ATP through the Krebs cycle, and the gut microbes allow us to digest plant matter). The reason these interactions persisted is because they were beneficial to both parties, so it can’t be considered parasitism. However, the point you made about mealybugs providing protection against herbivory despite technically having a parasitic relationship with plants is fascinating! Those are the kind of observations that can only be made by watching nature at work! This is easily my favorite series on KZread!!

Spiders, like jumping spiders, wolf spiders, brown reclusive, garden orb weaver spiders, and finally of course, huntsman spiders, very commonly will still lay eggs that aren’t fertilized. Usually within a few weeks they completely abandon the egg sack, or end up eating the eggs. Just depends because one fertilization creating two egg sacks isn’t unheard of.

bro, these are the only videos i dont consider spam in my feed. good job man ;) it is great to watch these with some morning-coffee

Nice conclusion on the "problem" too! Lovely, i think that every creature, live, have an purpose, even the "bad" ones.

Though I’m in the states, when i was a child i put a small centipede in a terrarium and forgot about it but months later i found a HUGE centipede in there. They can grow exponentially!

For the land planerians, I've seen gibson beetles eat them for the Centipedes and Millipede, the Promecognathus laevissimus will eat those things.. for the ant population, i would put in an assasin bug and a carnivorus plant called a sundew as those two have a symbiotic relationship, the assassin bug will also eat the mites and plant parasites.

lack of proper ventilation can lead to problems in any set up.

I think lady bugs eat mealies. Might be a wonderful addition.

As much as we hate them here on the channel and just in general, Mites are a part of nature. In your other terrariums it would be different but Pandora is an ecosystem experiment. Perhaps the mites are a way of the ecosystem balancing itself so the Marauder Ants don’t get out of control. Either way tho it does suck, but we’ll get through it. Ant Love Forever! 🐜❤️

You probably know the channel but if not: Journey to the microcosmos has a cool vid about mites out right now. You might like it, both the vids and the channel.

Ahhh the mealy bug.. I know him well 😠 👊🏼 been arch enemies for years

this series had made me view life itself in such a different perspective, i never thought of parasites that way. always thought they didnt serve much purpose other then for the parasites itself

Wire brush and loofah stocks just went super nova!

the production value of these videos are so phenomenal keep up the great work AC 🐜 🐜 🇨🇦

before this series i didn’t know that all arthropods shed their skin i thought only certain ones did! it makes a lot of sense and it’s so cool

I'm honestly more curious how you aren't infested by fungus gnats. I water a single houseplant and I get my own plague.

Oh, they're in the vivarium. You can actually see them flying around in some shots. They always get eaten though so they're never too much of a problem.

I know. They got into my hone and wreaked my plants. I saved about 1/4 but when I bought new plants they just found a way to get to them. They are controlled but not eradicated. I drives me nuts!

Me being like THOSE ARE TH BIGGEST TWEEZERS IVE EVER SEEN then remembering this is all zoomed in XD

Please give us an update about the aquatic life of Pandora.

I bought a house in the desert So. California. There was a smell coming from outside. Little did I know that the privets we're covered with woolly aphids. The plants look like they've been wrapped in white cotton. During the winter depending on the climate they will live underground with the roots. Every plant roots & all had to be taken out and burned. Removed a lot of soil and replaced. Nothing could be planted in the area for 2 years. They like privats and any plant that's in the privat family.

That's great to know about frogs, because all I can hear from early spring to late fall in my area are frogs!

I am jealous. The only thing I hear in my area from spring to fall is the voices in my head all fighting with each other.

I mean... The definition of parasite does include "at the other's expense," so even if mitochondria and gut bacteria started as parasites, they wouldn't be considered that anymore.

Yup, the relationship is called mutualism or mutualistic symbiosis. Forgot to mention that

I've been following your Antscanada channel for 5 years now(switched 3 yt accounts), you inspired me to raise ants as a pet and other tiny creatures, although they all died, but it was avery unforgettable experience.
