Watching the animals come back, hearing the birds and frogs, it makes my heart sing. I am so grateful for the work you’re doing to keep our planet as vibrantly alive as it was before industry and human activity began. Thank you thank you thank you. ❤

As someone who grew up In Bratislava and considers this ecosystem as part of my heritage I am incredibly thankful for the work you guys at Mossy Earth are doing to popularise the cause and helping BROZ in their uphill battle to save, rewild and repair at least partially the damage done to these wild floodplains by the damming of the Danube and other human activity.

For the snake at the end of the video- I believe that is called “Stargazing syndrome” and it is a neurological disorder. It can happen due to a variety of different reasons for example a bacterial infection. Unfortunately there is not necessarily a treatment unless the cause can be found…As for that little wild guy, I hope he can recover out there.

Seconding this. Stargazing can be caused by trauma, too--such as a heron trying to snag him for a meal, but only hitting his head with a glancing blow, or perhaps trauma from falling out of a tree. He probably doesn't have a good chance for recovery but he will make a great meal for another tier of the ecosystem, which in turn will provide meals for others, etc. Nature wastes nothing. Great footage, showing that not everyone in an ecosystem has to be having a good day for the whole system to be healthy! Sometimes wildland activism videos trend towards being saccharine and overly 'clean' in how they present nature (clean based on western societal expectations) and it feels inauthentic. Plus then visitors feel ripped off when their experience in person doesn't match the edited, censored footage they watched in advance. It's so much better to show it all and include the random, messy and not always happy incidents that really happen in nature.

Looks like stargazing, if it wasn't rubbing against anything on purpose. Another possibility might be that it's about to shed. When they are ready to get rid of the old skin, snakes aggressively rub their head and neck on various coarse surfaces, trying to get the skin to begin peeling. This can look like the snake is in distress.

I worked a couple of years in Canada's Northwest Territories, an area of tundra with thousands of lakes. Part of the job entailed pollution abatement measurements of the water quality surrounding the mine sites (the mine was several kilometres from the mill site). I was wearing a heavy checked shirt (think lumberjack) which made counting mosquitoes a bit easier. On many occasions I calculated my total personal mosquito population to be in the thousands. It was impossible to work with any exposed skin. Unless you were this one summer student who was working with the surveying team. He regularly took no anti-mosquito steps (no DEET, no mesh head cover, no long sleeves etc) but somehow remained largely ignored by the ravenous skeeters. The old timers set me straight. No scented soaps, light coloured clothing, plenty of DEET (which frequently dissolved certain plastics found in many things you might be wearing) are the way to go, better yet, stay indoors.

In this case, a hydropower system has been built on a plain, where several dams are needed to raise the water level. This cuts off the river from the branch system, the groundwater is lowered (other negative effects can be seen in the videos). All the water is manually controlled to flow down one of the longest rivers in Europe, which means that all the sediment is deposited at the dams and slowly accumulates in the reservoir, making it impossible to function in the long term. A bit crazy, no? Sure, it has its benefits, but overall it's not a good thing that it was built, but it had to be built....

I mean not every wetland has to be open to humans. I completely understand the danger of it, i lived in Georgia, but their benefits outweigh these issues.

@@lukebruce5234 New Zealand has a completely different biota from Australia. Few land mammals, lots of flightless birds, and a lack of many fish and insect species in Australian wetlands

it's videos like this I never want to end as I am watching them... the sounds in that wetland were insane post flood!!

Great to see such enthusiastic young people doing good work

Absolutely amazing results. The amount of life that was present because of this project is incredible, it’s like watching a nature documentary from an environment you saw be created

@@MossyEarth In a previous video I asked you "What is the meaning of "nep"? Even the [CC] said nep, nap, nop, etc.. It took a different channel to show the HUGE sign that said "Knoepp", the family name in the UK who rewilded their estate. Please, always explain where you are. Spell it if needed. Thank you for your work!

Always a pleasant surprise to dee a new video from you!!

Well done! Huge respect you guys are helping the Earth and it‘s habitants.

that was soooo satisfying. Love the work yall are doing

I’m suprised it isn’t a tourist attraction to watch the water go down the stream every spring, sounds like it would be a fun thing to watch

I think this is my favorite project of yours! Ever since I was a tiny little kid, I've always adored and thrived in these kinds of ecosystems and environments, especially doing exactly what you guys did, and (Siggi, was it?) digging out a channel. Don't know why, but I cannot express how much I love, enjoy and desire to make my own river channels, flood ponds, wetlands, etc off of pre-existing waterbodies. Its like a overwhelming maternal instinct. I just have to do it!

Siggi and the team he belongs to at BROZ bought the land and dug the channel. We just funded the work and help them with one or 2 things. They are absolute legends :) - Cheers, Duarte

So underrated thanks to all people that are involved

I wish I was a young man again this is what I would be doing, where I live in southern Ontario places like this have all but disapeared around here. I am so envious of the work you are doing, continued success to you and all the volenteers. Look forward to next years flooding.

Wow a year already? I remember when you first told us about it. Keep doing what you’re doing!!! Hopefully you’ll venture out of Europe soon, best wishes from Peru!

I like supporting eco groups that do more reforestation than just flooding of areas.

This is brilliant! I look forward to seeing how this project progresses in the coming years.

This is so beautiful. I loved hearing all the birds and frogs. Seeing so many hatched tadpoles was incredible. It makes me feel better, knowing that people like you are making a real difference.

That tadpole shot was great! I wish I could have been there with my underwater setup to film it properly. Siggi got that shot by sticking his phone in the water haha - Cheers, Duarte

The sound quality of all the recordings and hearing all the birds and frogs is insane! I had a random thought, I know a lot of people (myself included) go to nature sound videos for relaxation and concentration when working or studying - I wonder if you could take some of those recordings you already have and upload them (maybe on a separate channel?) with a picture talking about Mossy Earth and introduce it to more people that way?
