Where Animals' Scientific Names Come From

He's so humble that he didn't tell us about a whole bacteria genus named after him. What a legend.

"Cause they bitis... 🥺"

the donkey kong one actually helped me pass a test about taxonomy

When he said "I will see you in 2025" I thought he was joking.

This man spent 3 years learning thousands of species names. A true academic legend!

This is gonna be a long shot, but at about 5:26 i can hear a very very vague sleighbell sound effect in the background.
From what i can hear its identical to the one that plays during Cookie Clickers seasonal Christmas event, when a reindeer jumps across the screen (you can activate the event all year round).

The theory goes: Dr. O'Nella was playing it in the background while recording, forgetting that the otherwise silent game would make that sound effect every so often. He then tried to edit it out but couldn't get it all out.

In the UK we remember the order as:
Dirty
King
Philip
Can
Only
Fondle
Girl
Scouts

He taught us the most valuable lesson of all: Patience

When the world needed him most, he returned. Without fanfare or explanation. He simply returned to do his duty.

It’s been 9 months yet it feels like nine years, we miss you Sam O Nella please come back

Sam really be giving us the "I'm just going for a milk." experience for a second time.

He beat Dreams face reveal in trending charts.

Well done. Please don’t leave again.

This man really went MIA for 3 years and walked in like he never left. A true legend

Aaaaand he's gone again.

Another amusing mention of prioritized biological names is when they discovered the remains of one of the largest flying animals to ever live. They wanted to name it "Titanopteryx" for Titan wing in reference to it's size. It was later found out that a genus of miniscule Simuliid fly was already named this, so they renamed the gigantic pterosaur to "Arambourgiania"

With every passing day I fear his 2025 joke wasn’t just a joke.

Holy shit he’s back, words can’t describe how much the internet missed this man.

Man, I’m drunk rn and I love you. You don’t conform to anyone’s rules and you do what you do. Thank you man. No one has ever inspired me more than you.
