[♩INTRO]
Humans are far from the only animals that drink booze.
But, like us, they usually pay for it after.
That poor Swedish moose is never going to live down
that whole drunkenly-getting-stuck-in-a-tree thing.
But there's a mysterious little tree shrew in Southeast Asia
that basically lives on palm wine.
And somehow, it never gets drunk.
Lots of animals will occasionally down a spiked drink if given the chance.
Some even show a preference for it.
But none are so well adapted to binge-drinking as the pen-tailed tree shrew.
They're small, nocturnal mammals
and they spend their nights drinking bertam palm nectar.
The spiky plant is a tough sell for most species,
so being able to consume it
gives the tree shrews an abundant, reliable food source.
But the sugary juice it produces is frothy and stinks like booze, for good reason.
It's fermented by yeast, and it can contain as much alcohol as a light beer,
up to about 4%.
That doesn't seem to matter to the tree shrews, though,
who can spend spend more than two hours at a time slurping away.
Scientists have calculated that they drink their body weight equivalent
of about 9 glasses of wine several nights a week.
But they never seem drunk!
No stumbling around, falling out of trees,
or dialing their exes because they need closure.
And that might be because of the way they break down alcohol.
When we drink, most of the alcohol we consume
is broken down by an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase,
eventually becoming acetic acid, aka the stuff in vinegar.
But a very small amount is bound to a glucose derivative
to make a compound called ethyl glucuronide.
And tree shrew hairs contain about 30 times the level of ethyl glucuronide
that indicates excessive drinking in people.
Researchers think that's because tree shrews are
up to 30 times more efficient than us at breaking down ethanol this way,
which could explain their tolerance.
But lots of ethyl glucuronide is also thought to be
one of the drivers of blinding hangover headaches,
as well as the pain associated with withdrawal in alcoholics.
So we don't yet know how they avoid being perpetually hungover…
or why they aren't grumpier
if they do spend every morning with a splitting headache.
Of course, pen-tailed tree shrews aren't the only animals
that can handle their liquor.
Several bat species can apparently drink until their blood alcohol is 0.3%
nearly four times the legal driving limit in the US
and they still hunt and fly just fine.
But biologists don't think that kind of drinking is a nightly activity for them.
And other species, including primates like the slow loris,
also drink alcohol regularly, they just don't drink as much.
Tree shrews are the only animals we know of that binge drink all the time…
other than some humans.
Which is especially interesting, because
they're considered one of our closest living non-primate relatives,
having veered off from our line some 60ish million years ago.
Their boozy behavior adds to the growing evidence
that our relationship with alcohol began long before
we learned how to ferment it for ourselves,
and may even suggest there are benefits to regular drinking.
But … it's important to remember that their bodies have
adaptations for excessive alcohol consumption that ours don't.
So it's probably best to leave the binge drinking to the tree shrews.

I'm on the internet all the time for work, but in my free time,
I also like to be on internet all the time.
But depending on where you are,
the internet is not always as safe as you might think.
With NordVPN, you can make your connection to the internet more secure.
A VPN is a Virtual Private Network.
If you're watching this video in a coffee shop or in an airport,
you're on a public network,
which means other people might be able to see what you're doing online.
Even secure sites aren't always completely safe.
And while watching a SciShow video anywhere is great…
let's say you needed to check your bank statement on that same wifi network.
That's not information that you want to share with just anyone,
so, a public network is not the best way to do that.
With a VPN, that sensitive information would be encrypted
and routed through a trusted server before being sent to the bank.
And your bank statement would be encrypted by the server on the way back,
so none of your personal information would ever be accessible
by people on the public wifi.
And NordVPN does all of this for you with over 4600 servers in 62 countries,
and they're adding new secure servers all the time.
They've actually added over 200 servers
since the last time they sponsored a SciShow video!
NordVPN works across different operating systems
and one plan can be used on up to 6 of devices.

Fat Tony – My Climb. My Music. - Duration: 2:58.
I decided I wanted to be a musician like from the moment that I saw that group, Kriss Kross
I was like "yo, I can do this too".
You know, prior to that making music was kind of a fantasy to me
but, seeing Kriss Kross and then seeing the band Minor Threat
seeing them be like teenagers making music
working-class people making music, told me that I could do it myself.
Two things really inspired me to make music:
One, is my love of music.
I really say that before being a musician I'm a fan first
every time I hear a great song I'm inspired to get back at it.
Another thing that inspires me, it's just life itself.
You know, I really try to look at my real life and the real lives lived
around me the best music and the best art comes from your real life
experiences so I try to accumulate a lot of those and I tap into those memories
and those lessons and those experiences when I want to create something great.
I love performing, it's my absolute favorite part of being a musician.
I feel like being on stage is when I get to really express myself in the most
genuine and authentic and best way possible 'cause on stage I can improvise,
I can feed off the crowd, I can do things that are just really special to that
time and place that I am at when I am performing and that's the real gift of
this, this whole thing.
Partnering with Coors Light is important to me 'cause
Coors Light offers the chance to touch people that may have never heard of Fat Tony
and not just my music but my message and my overall vibe which I
think I'm a little biased I think more people need to get with and I really
respect Coors Light for reaching out to an artist like I need someone who is
independent, someone who was from the underground, someone who is from Houston.
What keeps me moving forward in my career? Is knowing that there's always
more to get out of this, you know throughout your life hopefully you
evolve as an artist time and time again and try different stuff and that's what
I want my life to be I want to still be a creative person when I'm 60, 70, 80
you know as as long as I'm lucky to be here I want to keep making music or keep
making something that means a lot to me.

Here's What I Think About Buying a Used Diesel Truck and More - Duration: 4:31.
rev up your engines, Chris Mill says, Scotty why do these
clowns with Diesel's with over 120,000 miles want so much for their trucks, the
rest of the truck is a regular truck, well because everybody wants a diesel
that can pull a lot of weight and still get decent gas mileage, you know if
you're pulling stuff with a gasoline engine, you're gonna get horrible gas
mileage, but a diesel doesn't it care if it's pulling itself or pulling a bunch
of weight, it's still gonna get about the same gas mileage and that's the reason they
sell them for so much money, it's just the way the market is and there's nothing
you can do about that, if you want one you're gonna have to pay more money because
that's just how the market is these days, Ali says Scotty I got a 1966 Rambler
Classic, any tips on bleeding the brakes, yeah it's an old car it's simple, all
you want to do is, get another person and have them pump the brakes, then bleed the right
rear tire, do it four or five times, then bleed the left rear tire, do it four or
five times, then bleed the right front tire, do it four or five times, then bleed
the other tire in the front, four or five times, that should do it, now if you can't
get the air out that way, then you got a bad master cylinder or something
that's sucking air in, those all cars are real easy to bleed brake, because it doesn't
have anti-lock brakes, all the modern cars with the anti-lock brakes you have
to have a fancy computer like I have in order to actuate the solenoids and bleed
the air out, but on that old thing it's so simple, just do one wheel at a time
like I said and you won't have any problems, Kay says, Scotty I
have 1997 Celica 1.8 160 horsepower manual around 300,000 kilometers, I think it
burns some oil are the 7af engines proned to burning oil, can it be the PCV
valve, okay change the PCV valve and after that there's nothing you can do
the engine is going to be worn, you got a lot of mileage 300,000 kilometers, if I were you
I'd switch to Castrol and use like their 2050 oil and see what happens, it won't
hurt an old engine like that, and a lot of times it'll burn less oil because
it's better engine oil, try that they're good engines, their very good engines, but
you got a lot of mileage so it's gonna probably burn a little bit of oil but
you put in the heavier weight castrol oil and change the PCV valve and see
maybe it'll burn a lot less that way, I often do that when I work on people's
cars like that, Gavin Vicar says,
my girlfriend's 2000 Yaris has a hissing sound from the brakes as they come
to stop, I change the brake booster, master cylinder, vacuum lines, but it
still hisses, okay did you change the check valve on the booster, if you've got
a bad check valve on the booster, it will hiss and you know that should fix it, now
you said you change the booster, but did you use a brand new one, or a rebuilt one
because if you use a rebuilt one, the rebuilt ones are often absolute junk
and they'll still hiss so it could just be that you used a rebuilt one and you
shouldn't have used a rebuilt one, you should have used a brand new one, I see
that all the time and of course check lines going to the booster to make sure
that there's no loose, you know they just fit on, you might want to put a little
radiator screw clamp where they go on instead of that cheap clamp that they
come with, DylanSand say, my dad has 49 Studebaker that blows the 50 amp fuses and
dies right in the tracks when you turn the wipers you know what's wrong with it
well it's got something wrong in the wiper system you know, if it only does it
when you turn the wipers on either the fuse that turns the wipers on or the
wiring go to the wiper or the wiper motor is shorted and dead, so you got to
start testing all that stuff, the easiest thing is first, unplug the connector to
the wipers, then if you turn it on and it doesn't blow it, you know it's the wiper
motor, if it still blows up then you know it's the fuse or the wiring going to the
wiper, you check it sections at a time, anytime you have electrical problems you
want to check it one section to the other, that's just how that stuff works, simple
always simplify stuff especially electrical work when you're working on it, Ed Colt
54 says, thoughts on cars going to these push start and buttons I hate them, I
hate it too because I have to fix them and it's such a pain, I have the computers that can
fix them but it's still a pain in the butt when it says well I gotta go to the
dealer and buy the special computer module and reprogram them and then
somebody you know get a new key for your car used to cost you a buck and a half
from the hardware store, I had a customer that lost their key that was one of
those keyless systems on a Toyota Prius and it cost his like 1200 bucks at the
Toyota dealer, so I hate him too, so if you never want to miss another one
of my new car repair videos, remember to ring that Bell!

Limit Feeding Background Calves - Duration: 2:29.
We're at the K-State beef stalker unit and this morning we're going to talk
about some work that we've been conducting over the last two years
focusing entirely on limit feeding of backgrounding calves. There's been a lot
of concern in the industry about limit feeding higher energy content to these
newly arrived calves. We looked at that and took this project on from a
different perspective, looking at utilizing co-products such as corn
gluten feed that being sweet bran or wet distillers grains which comprised
predominantly the diet. Now we push the energy content of the diet up to sixty
NEg mega cals. of NEg per hundred pounds of feed. What we found is a 27
percent improvement in feed efficiency relative to full fed control cattle and
this was represented by the dramatic improvement in digestibility of
the diet. As a consequence of lesser amounts of feed these animals are able
to extract a greater amount of energy content from the diet, so we see a
greater improvement. There's a huge variety of benefits from limit feeding.
First of all we feed once a day not twice a day. We're able to provide the
feed to the animals and and typically they consume their rations in about a
three hour period of time and so the remainder of the day their bunks
are clean. When it comes to pen cleaning time we see a dramatic improvement in
the amount of manure being removed from the pen. So from an environmental
perspective we see dramatic improvements there. This time of the year and this
particular set of environmental conditions in Kansas where prairie hay
is exceeding one hundred and twenty dollars a ton or so in price we're only
feeding seven and a half percent of prairie hay and seven and a half percent
of alfalfa in this particular series of diets that we're testing. So we've
dramatically removed the amount of fiber from the diets and getting by with the
effective fiber from the co-products that are contained in in the diet as
well from the distillers corn. We anticipate based upon
our previous work a substantial improvement in feed efficiency which
translates into potentially more dollars for the producer.
