Under current circumstances I don’t find this video appealing. In another decade maybe

Uh oh, they're imprinting!

Sounds like a game🙂

Until they are 10 times bigger coming for you But cute now true

Awww aren't they just the most adorable lil future northern defense mechanism

They sound hungry aww

The stuff of horror movies!

Cool more guards for Alligator Alcatraz

can they be tamed or is the reptilian brain not up to it

That would be magas

ok never been done in a trustworthy manner only if youve something they want to eat other than you

Brings back memories of my youth spent in game arcades!

Like seriously 🙄

Reminded me of Galaga!

👀 this will forever live rent free in my head.. 😅🤣

May I ask what are the plans for those baby crocs?

Farmed cruely for their skins. Handbags shoes belts .....

The video is from a highly regarded wildlife conservation organization, actually. :)

Not their meat? You can eat the meat too, don't waste food!

God were cruel aren’t we?

They are sooooo cute! 💗🐊🫶

I fear I would die of cuteness.

This is a stupid question. Will these babies still bite//try to eat you even if they think you're their mother?

Probably

Crocodiles with friggin laser beams

That's sounds funny 😁

if all works out and i can leave florida i think the thing i’ll miss most is the swamp kittens :,c

precious little guys

Cute but just waiting to get big enough to eat you.

Balderdash! I have the guys in DARPA working on laser guns right now and modern laser guns sound NOTHING like this. Maybe the old prototypes, but seriously, get your facts straight.

All animals are cute as babies…can’t think of one exception.

Pew pew pew!

Lovely pets until they grow up of course 🤣

Battlestar Galactica.

Pew pew pew

Came here to say that 🤣

They’re so cute. Can you teach them to not eat people? 🤓

They are looking at you like, "Momma is built different..." 😂

What's the point of these? Are they endangered? Where are they going to go?

Point? What’s the ‘point’ of humans?

Sorry, I meant what's the point of keeping them there?

My thoughts exactly.

Sure it’s different than I expected.

Yeah it's cute init . all ohhh awww right up till

"Are you my mommy?"

Right before they eat your face for lunch…

Papa Human detected! ENGAGE AFFECTION BLASTERS!!! *pew, pew, pew, pew-pew~*

Wittle crocsss 🥹

I was skeptical when I read this post but then I turned on the audio and wow, they sound *exactly* like that lol

Quando minha garganta ta coçando

Unless you're baby crocodile prey.

Sweeties!

Wow. You learn something new every day.

tiny teethy birds

Awwww so cute at their hatchling stage

Space invaders 🚀

@aidatkd.bsky.social tienes que ver y oír esto...

Es que es increíble 🤣🤣🤣😍😍😍

Wait a month …

Sounds just like the old Atari game Berserk

Not the Mama! 🤣

If they had them, they would use them

Awwww❣️

Cool!

It sounds like a scene from Star Wars lol.

There's nothing like hiking in Florida & hearing that sound in the wild 😳 baby alligators🐊🐊 sound like that too 🔫🔫 Just don't get too close! Mama gators protect their young!

yep, there's two reasons they make this noise, they're calling mama, and they're greeting mama

They're kind of cute at that size.

Amazing

You should check with the sound effect engineer if that is where they got that laser effect 🤣😍

Do you think they learn to bond with the human caring for them from the time they hatch? Like imprinted on people?

yeah! the original Star Trek used their sounds in one episode

Have I told you lately how happy your posts make me?

There are way too many uncomfortable, vague inferences here to Marjorie Taylor Greene and made-up space weapons and inhumane, makeshift Florida concentration camps and Good Lord, I need to stop watching the news. Your video is so cute!

They're cute until they grow up and eat their owners for dinner.

For you maybe

If they're Imperial crocodiles, they're not hitting anything.

the ones acting like you're not there will be the real killers one day 😂

It is so weird how something so adorable will grow up to be something scary as sh*t.

That little croc is trying to tell you that he's going to EAT YOU one day...

They're all thinking, "If we were just a lot bigger, and this water was a lot deeper, we'd be eating your ass right about now."

I hear humans are pretty gross on rating scales from all the other species. Apparently we do not taste like chicken.

Long pig.

So pork then .. Is there a vegetarian option?

Now there is something I did not know

That’s exactly what it sounds like Awesome

It gets creepier right?

If only they stayed this way!

I mean Alligators are really chill as dangerous creatures go. They won't chase you out of water, and while can't be tamed, they can be acclimated to a few trusted humans being around them

While I understand this, intellectually, I prefer hanging with the baby versions.

Valid, have a nice day

You, as well!

Hungry and should be with their mother.

The video is from a wildlife conservation organization! They're being quite well taken care of. :)

Good to know.

My dog heard their sound and went crazy 🤪

Now that’s weird

😄😄😄 too cute

That is so fun!! I never knew ! Course I’m NOT from Florida. 🥴

Florida is alligators. Though probably just as adorable. I have held a baby one there, but he was about a metre long.

Fantastic! 😆

But what do adults sound like?

CRUNCH!

GRRRRRAAWWRRR CRUNCH.

I guess I set myself up for that! I just assume that they don’t lose the ability to vocalize, so I’m wondering whether their voices echo across the swamps at night!

I LOVE THEM!

@down.blue Thank You!

"The enemy has lowered their guard... RELEASE THE MINI R3-PT-1L3 WALKERS"

Cool

This made my day... And madame question where Star Wars got the laser gun sounds FROM...cause yeah. Sounds a lot like these little guys here, lol

I'm convinced they got the sounds from either baby Crocs, skating on thin ice, or steel cables under tension

"The distinct "pew-pew" sound of the blaster rifle was primarily achieved by striking guy wires on radio towers with a hammer and recording the resulting vibrations. The sound was then processed and layered with other effects in the studio"

Okay, this is frigging cool to know. I love learning new things! Thank you for telling me this. That is just as awesome, really. Still, you gotta admit when you hear these guys....

If you're interested, Ben Burtt's audio work on Star Wars is a fascinating rabbit hole to dive down. 🙂

Oh yeah. I'll definitely have to watch this - thank you. 🙂

Very welcome. Enjoy!

📌

Glad to know that; I knew real lasers don't make that sound.

And they could have done it for free at their local croc refuge!

This is also how the crocodiles make that noise

I was thinking you must mean “guide wires” but am very glad I checked. Guy wires: a thing! Gal wires: also a thing!

copy pasta from a website.. didn't type shit , lol.

Who on earth would be hitting guy wires with hammers???!? That is a prescription for disaster.

hey , no kink shaming..

Whatever you need to tell yourself, dude. 🤣

They're so adorable before they get all murdery.

some would argue they're still adorable while murdery I dare not approach to confirm or deny xD

Aren’t we all?

These babies are more likely to be murdered than murdery. 😰

Wow this is amazing sound like a video game. So cool

They are looking for mom. Alligator mothers are very involved with her young. animals.mom.com/long-mother-...

Unfortunately, their 'real' mom isn't around- but don't worry, they're being quite well taken care of. The video is from a well regarded wildlife conservation organization called the Dragonwood Conservency :D

Oh yes. I did not mean to infer your organization was not taking wonderful care of them. My apologies if it came across that way.

Oh, not my organization- I just searched out where the vid was from first time I saw it a fair while back, having the same concerns some other people in the thread here have had :)

My cat thought this was really concerning

Interesting timing for this post 🤦‍♀️

They’re crocs, not alligators. Even then, humans are the monsters behind that horrible Florida concentration camp, not the gators.

they are calling themselves The MAlligators!!

I think it’s more the concept. I will go out on a limb here and say most Americans wouldn’t know the difference. There are truly ugly MAGA types out there making jokes about the demise of those in detention due to gators.

If you hear this in nature, run as fast as you can because a 12-foot female gator may suddenly emerge out of nowhere and bite you in half

I was thinking "go up a tree, if you can" because you really don't know where the gator (or crocodile) might be. Might be awkward if you ended up running toward Mama.

Fast forward 10 years later, & the same arm missing hand 😂

They truly do !!

😳🤔🤣

Aw. They think you're the mama.

Nobody tell MTG - she’ll say they’re Jewish.

Awwww, they just lil storm troopers

My partner tells me that water monitor lizards in Thailand sound like this but louder, so laser canons.

aww so cute 😍😍😍

It sounds like the dinosaurs in the first Jurassic Park movie!

Love this!

I wuv them so much!!!!!!! Lil green critters 🦎 🦎 🦎

Maybe not if you're address is a perimeter cage in Alligator Auschwitz.

I gotta say, that is pretty freaking adorable.

I'm thinking this. 👇🏻 m.youtube.com/watch?v=KL_F...

Little dinos ....

Watch out Desantis and Noem are looking for a few more good guards

They sound cool, but they want to eat you

They are adorable 🥰

crazy how they seem to trust their handler. just shows that humans and reptiles can bond

After 'while...

Yeah, they’re cute now…

Ok, that's adorable!!! They clearly love you!

Star Trek OG used that sound. I always wondered where they got it.

Squeeee

omg omg omg 🥰🥰

Can it really be called doom scrolling when I get to learn about baby laser crocs?

Lol Pew pew pew It's lovely Thanks

Holy Jurassic Park!

Proof positive there is no animal baby that isn’t adorable.

how about THESE!!!!?

Yes, cute too. I had a couple of balls of these on my lavender and watched them hatch, start moving, start exploring and eventually move on!

📌

Memories 😂

So cool!

I would die for them

Baby gators and crocs are so special. They're so affectionate, make space laser noises, and haven't yet learned the art of murder.

someone please do a mashup of this sound and a Star Wars clip! Maybe Spaceballs!

#pewpew

Maybe that's how they got the blaster sounds in Star Wars?😆

Don't tell Captain Hook about it.

That’s crazy!

Be careful, I think I saw this scene in Jurassic World.

Pretty sure that's the sound Compsognathus would have made.

This is how they created blaster/gun sounds in old 1970-80s space/alien movies!😂😂

If not friend, why friend shaped?

😳😳, they are cute but those are man eating dinosaurs, that’s a no for me

pew pew pew

💖💖💖

I used to love telling tourists outside walking their tiny dogs around the answer to their questions "whats that noise, what kind of frog is that ? " Ahhh those were the days 😂

While they are SMALL…

I’m gonna ask the obvious question (I think) - why do you have so many baby gators?

Are baby alligators prey for some ther animals? Off to ask google

I thinks other BlueSky friend nailed it….farmed for skins to make shoes and purses. Awful but - I eat meat so….

The OP isn't the maker of the video, and while some assholes do raise gators for that purpose, this specific video is from a wildlife conservation organization called the Dragonwood Conservency. :D

Thanks for the info! If you checked my profile, you know conservation, preservation is very important to me. (People, places, critters!)

♥️

What is this?!? 😄😆 Unbelievable!

Cooool

I'm blown away thinking about ancient Egyptians listening to this sound.

Baby crocs vs hummingbirds

His body was discovered a few hours later

You are imprinted on their minds as their mom. Now you gonna find out why alligator nipples are always so sore

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I'M DRY! GET OFF!

📌

Nature is not for play play. They are going to remember how tasty dude smelled when their eating teeth grow in.

They are so cute! 🥰🥰 Love their little vocalizations too. 😊

Why do you have these baby crocodiles?

The video is from a wildlife conservation organization :)

iirc the person who took this video works with either a zoo or a rescue and was raising them to be released

I asked the same question. Why?

I don't think they do, they're probably not the person to ask

Don't be fooled by how cute they sound. They think you smell like chicken. Just sayin'

They sound like old arcade game lasers specifically

They need little toys in there❤️

I think they would eat you if they could. Maybe later….

They're so cute!

Wow So Cool 😎😲😲😲😲

Real laser guns would not make that sound, but how boring would sci-fi be with silent laser guns?

Pew pew!

That is terrifyingly cute.

Now we know where they got the sound for the velociraptors in Jurassic Park.

Funny you say that, cos young rooks make a similar noise.

Pew pew pew!

They're so cute.

OMG! I can't believe that sounds is coming from those little cuties. It really does sound like laser guns. That's adorable! 🤣🤣

Baby wild animals in a bathtub. Where is this video from? A legitimate wildlife rehab?

Yes! It's from the Dragonwood Conservancy. :) www.dragonwoodconservancy.org

Exactly. Good question. And why didn’t the poster give some context for this vid?

Wow. That’s crazy and so cute. 🥰❤️

“Are you my Mommy?”

Sounds like Galaga lol.

So cute! 💕

These animals are being vilified by MAGA. They are magnificent creatures that were walking the earth approximately 36.7 MILLION YEARS before humans existed. They are evolutionary survivors and will be around long after we’ve killed ourselves off.

Why are Maga vilifying our crocs? Aren't they busy dapping over the idea of gators eating brown people?

Aside from the fact that Alligator is the oraficial nom de fluridum’s new “hot club, w/ psychotic, insulting BRANDED MERCH… ‘member when conOLD fantasized rolling out its bastard-branded Hunger Games? How far do you think it & derSadist are from that? www.thebulwark.com/p/like-hunge...

Yeah. I'm not convinced they have completely dropped it. Millers just waiting till they have full control

We had a bear at our camp site eating our food but it does not make them safe to be around. Weather or not you are mega.

Yes. You are an animal as well and should know better because of your advanced cerebral cortex.

Here’s something you can do with your advanced cerebral cortex, which is unique among primates: If you’re afraid and you know you’re going to be where bears have lived for 100s of thousands of years, you should bring a loud alarm and/or bear spray. Otherwise stay away from them.

My bad, these are crocodiles. Here are some alligator babies, they sound almost identical: m.youtube.com/watch?v=AnQP...

Nah these are crocodiles.

❤️❤️❤️

😂

Sounds like the shooting sound effect from Galaga

Sounds like Space Invaders

why aren't they in the wild?

😅

Aww, look at those swamp puppies!

They're so cute

Awwwww I'm gonna name mine Galaga.

Perfect name! lol, that's what I hear in the sound, too.

I WAS going to call them Galagators- but they're crocodiles so at least I didn't embarrass myself. 😅

Hahaha, I dunno. I think that one is acceptable, regardless.

💙

Looks like the girl in jurassic Park before she gets eaten…..

The little girl in the beginning of the movie.. i dont know her name! She was there with her rich family on “the island “ come on you gotta remember it…

What girl?

Sounds like Space Invaders! 🤣🤣🤣

Thanks for putting a smile on my face and a warmth in my soul every day with your posts

Pew pew pew!
