The smile she had on her face when she finally got the crayfish :) Priceless!

This is one of those channels where we will get to say "I was there before it blew up". This channel is going to be big.

I can't believe it still hasn't blown up

2:47 Just remembered my biology teacher at uni saying: "We biologists are ruthless killers. Everything we catch, dies."

I'm so glad that science exists outside of politics and the craze of the world. It reminds me of getting lost in science in the way I did as a child. Thank you all so much for all you and your colleagues do!

The world needs more of this. Thanks for the time and effort you put into making these videos and for highlighting the amazing research of others.

Let's meet the biologists! There is an endless world of interesting biodiversity out there😁🏆

I remember Bronwyn from her time in Alberta-- Hi Bronwyn! Glad to see you are still working on crayfish. I still use some of the photos you gave me for my wildlife class.

I love this so much!! Dr. Bronwyn Williams is fantastic. Hope to see more of them!!!

awesome! this was fun to make, so i'm definitely going to try to do more!

Yes this is AWESOME! So inspirational to see what you can have as a job. Keep posting short interviews like this!

Her face when she caught it was wonderful :)

I love visiting specimen rooms. They're like a twisted death-filed cross between grocery store shelves and a reference library. Love them to pieces. Dr. Williams is so cool and seems really kind and her field is so interesting - Animal-based 'ecosystems' themselves are fascinating and understanding what populations are actually present where is soooo important for conservation. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels since I found the slow-mo insects. When I get a chance I want to go back and watch the long-form interviews you've done with professors. Keep em coming and thank you for giving us a peek into your world! - Biologist hopeful from TX with too many interests

As someone who used to catch Crayfish (or "Crawdads", as so many called them) in southern WV streams as a child, this segment was one that really pushed the nostalgia-buttons. Thank you for featuring these fascinating arthropods, and the hard work of Dr. Williams!

Yes! Thank you for sharing this on YT. It scratched an itch I'd forgotten was there! Brain Scoop used to do mini docs with museum and labs, I've missed them.

me too, fam

I LOVE THIS Like you said, the hyper-focused and deep knowledge of experts is always fascinating to see. And showing off the cool stuff in NC is always a plus :)

I am a university student from Argentina, just a year ago I started my Bachelor's degree in Biological Sciences and the whole world of arthropods is extremely attractive to me. For me, as a novice student, these videos are a "holy grail" to get to know the field and laboratory work of professionals. Thank you very much for the great content.

Absolutely, please produce more video profiles like this one!!!

This is my fav episode of all time! I absolutely love crayfish. And I think that Bronwyn (I hope I spelled it correctly) has the very best job in the whole wide world! You can tell that she is very intelligent and does such interesting work. She is an excellent role model. Did you see her beautiful smile when she found what she was looking for? That's how I would feel!!!

Nice to finally find out about these things, growing up my familys back yard would flood often and it was FULL of these chimney burrows constantly throughout the year, but I would only rarely see these mudbugs out in our yard.

Would love to see more of these videos on what your colleagues are doing! I didn't know there were so many species, and that's just in NC!!

👍🏼 For all the crayfish I have seen, caught and occasionally eaten, I had no idea some made chimneys! Yes, more knowledge, please! 😎✌🏼

i do love this type of content. mostly because i havent seen it anywhere else. its nice to have you making it

Deeply glad that you shared this video and it’s beyond cool to use your voice to help rep fellow scientists!

I’m glad you are branching out a little. I do actually appreciate seeing what yo ur colleagues do. It’s fascinating and I hope you keep doing it :)

This was excellent. I would love to get a glimpse of your colleagues work. Thanks!

Umm yes I LOVE this type of content! I subscribed to you not only for your personal specialty/interest in bugs, but for your excellent videography, and hmmm... Story telling? Anyway, it comes through in this video in a great way!!

I love this content! Been subbed for years and this is my favorite type of vid alongside the insect flight!

Pretty cool, I miss NC wilderness

That’s very interesting, would like to see more of that, particularly in Florida

Oh, I really, really love this. I'm a North Carolinian from the Charlotte area, and me and my brothers loved to search for crayfish in the creek behind the house. For several years we didn't find any, but last year and this year I saw a couple. I think they're coming back!!!

please tell her that i think she is so cool. genuinely inspiring

in the field, shoulder deep in the mud, digging for bugs.... dream job

The exoskeleton, decapod, combination is evolutionary perfection.

What amazing work is being done, unknown to most of us. Thank you so much!!!

Love this!! Def want more

I love seeing this! It’s great to see the immense biodiversity. I love the high definition photos of the crayfish on black backgrounds, it really shows all of their amazing details!

Very interesting! More more!!

I've been interested in crayfish ever since I learned as a kid that those chimneys in our ditch were built be them

Thanks for showing these fascinating creatures!

I love it, love it, pure, simple, truthful, direct, amazing guys and information, revives the curious amazed child in me.

Amazing! If anything, too short a video. Please feature more of your colleagues on the channel, the more the merrier!

I just discovered this channel. It is wonderful! I really appreciate all of your efforts.

Very well done! Field. lab, collection, biodiversity! Nice story, I will share with my teachers!

I always thought crayfish lived in the water. So neat to learn this.

These bite sized, dense learning bits are super awesome! I wish I learned a little more about what she was doing when she was catching the crayfish like with the water trick

That was amazing, I especially enjoyed the super high quality close up footage of the worms that live on the crayfish.

These are a great addition to your channel. Showing the process of science, and how it’s relevant to the viewer’s life, provides a lot of needed context.

Yes yes yes please more of this!

That museum was amazing

Make more videos like this. The world must know!

I'd love to see more videos like this, they're so neat!

Yes, please post more!

All invertebrates are interesting to me... Thanks for this video!

I just have to say, I love this channel so much. Your work is so cool!

I spent hours this summer watching the crayfish in the stream next to my house. They hid in leaf litter underwater, but once you know what to look for you can see the leaves moving in a certain way and you know they're in there

Oh, and there was also the remains of raccoon meals (both in pieces and in scat)

I am an engineer but i always find my self fascinated by biology and naturals complicated systems

this is sick man. i love learning about all sorts of animals

As a New Orleanian, I'm interested in crawfish because they're delicious

Love so much all of your videos! Please keep inspiring us with these stories!

Yeah! Let's see more.

Thats very interesting and I'd love to see more storys! Please keep them coming!

THIS WAS THE COOLEST STORY! THANK YOU!!!!!

Thanks Adrian, this was awesome.

More of this kind of videos please 🥺

This was a cool video. I really liked it. Hope to see more of these and insects flying of course

Cool crab, mate! Here where I live there are only 3 crayfish species and 2 of them are from north america. I didn't know that crayfishes could dig that deep. Thanks for sharing!

I love this kind of content, do keep em coming please 🤗

I like this series I think you should keep it up!

That was fantastic. Great work!

Makes me want to persue further education in this field! One of my assignments for college was to put together a specimen collection of aquatic invertebrates, and one of my favorite specimens is a nice big crayfish. Really should plop it under a microscope again sometime.

More please 👏 👏 👏

Super cool! And also a good intro to a very specific field.

Yes!! More Crayfish Content™ Please

Keep up the great content. This was pretty cool

Would like to see more of this type of content

Huh. Fascinating!

Great video. Love this format!

Loved the video! Interesting to see what this kind of field work looks like. I had no idea crayfish were so diverse!

Much love for this !

Excellent work...

incredible channel. This is science. Extremely interesting.

Love this type of content - super interesting, thanks for sharing!

Yes yes keep it up, I don't care what your content is about but if you find it interesting enough to make a video about I trust that I will like it enough to watch it!
