>>5122866How come there's no one else on his level? No obvious heir once he's gone
further proof that a positive approach to life and looking at nice animals is keeping you fresh
>>5122870because youtube "shows" stole the documentary audiences
>>5122866The goat
>>5122866What a legend
In his 2020 documentary film David Attenborough: A Life On Our Planet, Attenborough advocates for people to adopt a vegetarian diet or to reduce meat consumption to save wildlife, noting that "the planet can't support billions of meat-eaters."
>>5122866we don't have to worry about him dying, there is more than enough material to mage a good AI copy of his voice
>>5122866a living legend
Happy birthday. Here's to another twenty to come.
on the prospect of retirement, he commented: "If I was earning my money by hewing coal I would be very glad indeed to stop. But I'm not. I'm swanning round the world looking at the most fabulously interesting things. Such good fortune."
>>5122866HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIR DAVID
>>5122866>RIP stickyTed Turner didn't even get a sticky.

>>5122898Sir David wants fewer Africans and Indians on the planet:"Sending food aid to famine-stricken countries avoids the more fundamental problem of population growth, Sir David Attenborough has said, as he called for more debate about population control.The renowned broadcaster told the Daily Telegraph the world was "heading for disaster", and without action the "natural world will do something"."What are all these famines in Ethiopia? What are they about?" he said. "They're about too many people for too little land. That's what it's about. And we are blinding ourselves. We say, get the United Nations to send them bags of flour. That's barmy."He admitted the issues had huge sensitivities, but insisted it was important to "just keep on about it".One area of concern, he said, was about the right to have children. "To start with, it is the individual's great privilege to have children. And who am I to say that you shan't have children? That's one thing," he said. "And the last sensitivity – and the most tricky of all – is the fact, when you talk about world population, the areas we're talking about are Africa and Asia, you know."
>>5122985uhhh, based?
>>5122985Se he's our guy then?
1958>>5123011More or less if you view humans as animals that need to be managed like them. (i do because we are)
>>5122866Happy birthday David, and here's to many more.
>>5122866Happy birthday!>>5122985
>>5122969>Stop praising this old white fossil, he's a FRAUD!No, the praising will continue. And that is a good thing.
>>5122876YouTube has none Documentary levels of education as old school Discovery Channel and Animal Planet, it's funny how YouTube is recommend me David documentaries of 3 hrs, same thing happened on Steve Irwin birthday
>>5123035what gets views is Jackass with a wildlife twist
A Sir high above other Sirs, I dub thee Sir Sir David Attenborough!
>>5122985Wtf I love David now
>>5122866Just like wilt
>>5122866Oh shit
>>5122985whoa, based
>>5122866Happy belated birthday DaveThat ant documentary from this year is amazing stuff, he's still got it
>>5122866BLUE PLANET 3, NARRATED BY SIR DAVID, ANNOUNCED:https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0nk7f23
Happy Birthday David,Thank you for getting me interested in nature, watching the Life of Mammals and the Life of Birds were formative experiences for me.
>>5123233You're welcome!- David
>>5122969>20 minutes long>manages to say absolutely nothing of substance>released on his birthday to bait as many views as possibleWhat a garbage video. It doesn’t even make a single worthwhile point
>>5122985See this is how you talk about these kinds of things matter-of-factly. He isn't saying anything is wrong with the people of Africa or Asia, just that they have problems of having too many children in areas where resources are more scarce. Only the whiniest liberal would have a problem with what David is saying here. Overpopulation is a real concern for the future and no amount of "cultural sensitivity" will solve that problem.
>>5123059Based tortoise Hope he makes it to 200
>>5123276It really isn't because there's no reason to believe that as Africa develops they won't have exactly the same demographic trend as every other country on Earth, that is declining birthrates. See pic related from the world bank.
>>5122969Genuinely what was the point of this>David said the natural world is full of wonder>Erm, aktualee the natural world is cruel, LIAR!*Checks upload date*Oh, it's just engagement bait
>>5123295not only is Africa unlikely to achieve First World living standards, but even if it did with its current population size, it would come at the cost of most of its megafauna
>>5123186>mating call
>>5122969did this faggot change the title of his video to mention David Attenborough for increased views? I could've swore the previous title just mentioned "nature documentaries"
>>5123322He also contradicts himself by showing clips from documentaries involving violent animal behaviour and saying that is also bad because it’s dramatisation. It’s pure slop that says nothing
>>5123375>not only is Africa unlikely to achieve First World living standardsWhy?> even if it did with its current population size, it would come at the cost of most of its megafaunaWell yes, first world living standards are unsustainable. But you don't need first world living standards to hit below replacement rate.
>>5123445>Why?Enrico, show him the intelligence allele prevalence infographic with sources o algot. Jose
>>5122906Ecologists are such doomer faggots. The greatest thing about nature is how no matter what it can always heal itself. If you don't see the beauty of plants reclaiming a coal mine or how a mish mash of species from around the globe can form a novel ecosystem in some suburb that's a you problem.
>>5123445because theyre retarded, average iq is 80 over there
>>5123488Yes, that's what limited education opportunities and persistent malnutrition will do. Nothing that can't be changed.

>>5122985He isn’t wrong either. The best way to reduce population growth in these places is to educate women and improve healthcare. The bleeding hearts would read that and think he’s advocating for mass murder though
>>5123492that doesnt change anything, its genetic, you cannot train nor feed your genes to be better, theyre born a retard, theyll live as a retard, and theyll die a retard
>>5123625>he still believes IQ is mostly geneticlol
>>5123037That's not Wildboyz, though.
>>5123465No offense, but you sound retarded
>>5122985Jane Goodall agreed with him
He’s in good shape for 100. What’s his secret? I know Brits don’t tend to age well
>>5123625>you cannot train nor feed your genes to be better you can train your iq though
>>5123853his brother Richard lived a long time as well
>>5122906based and Leopilled
>>5123059AGE MOGGED
>>5123186https://www.youtube.com/shorts/_u7xELgw9mA
>>5122898he's correct
>>5122927
>>5123853He’s had knee replacements and also a pacemaker installed in. He looks pretty good for his age, but he’s still 100 years old.
>>5124825Alcoholics are even worse than stoners.
>>5122914is the snake venomous?
>>5122866Based on Prehistoric Planet, I think he's too old to effectively do the narration job anymore. He slurs his words constantly, and it's really distracting.
>>5123853He actually brushed his teeth, which most brits don't.
>>5122866Happy birthday Sir David!
>>5125877no he doesn't
>>5122916based
>>5122870>How come there's no one else on his level? No obvious heir once he's goneThere was Steve...
>>5122927>Me watching Caseoh with my gf
>>5123295Out of curiosity, has Nigeria had any internal wars/conflict since the late 90s?
>>5127162have they? too lazy to google
A hornet sting is about as painful as a bee or generic wasp sting
>>5129560what about those giant Japanese wasps?
>>5130011Like 3x, mostly due to the high volume of venom delivered. The pain comes mostly from algogens. By weight, honey bee venom is actually more toxic (about 1.5 times) than an european hornet's. The asian hornet does not seem to be any more "aggressive" than any other stinging insect (don't attack them, duh). However, they raid bee hives, and everyone knows that beekeepers never miss a good opportunity to kvetch how their poor bees are threatened while fucking up the life of wild pollinators.
