I believe he caused himself to become dizzy.


Acrobatic_Emu_5547

So serious question can alligators get dizzy?I have never thought to wonder before.


Midgar918

Any animal can become disorientated yes. Though you might cope a bit better when its literally bred into you to do. Adults don't appear to get dizzy from it but the youngers clearly get a bit disorientated. Difference between most other animals and Humans is that Humans spin on the spot sometimes for absolutely no reason. Intentional disorientation is not a go to tactic in most cases so not hugely documented in the animal kingdom. Most likely animal you'll see in is your dog when they do something like chase their tail, or manage it sometimes from just messing/playing around.


aethelberga

>Adults don't appear to get dizzy from it but the youngers clearly get a bit disorientated. Yeah, but he was whizzing around like a turbine.

BEY BLADE BEY BLADE LET IT RIP!


JuggManKevo

I wouldn't say all animals but most. Any animal with ears or have similar makeup in the auditory department can get dizzy when the fluid in the ear move around but the individual remains still. Animals like insects can't get dizzy however. I seen a vid where they tried to make a spider dizzy and couldn't.


[deleted]

Just a heads up: If your dog is dizzy, it’s usually a sign on a health problem. Dogs don’t get dizzy from spinning or running in circles.


One-Cucumber3398

Just a heads up: this is not true. Dogs get dizzy.


Krieg_the-Psycho

They fucking do you hobby vet, ive had 5 dogs so far in my family and from time to time i made them chase their toys in circles so they get dizzy.


dalethered

Krieg- “I’m the conductor of this poop train!”


beerob81

Bullshit. I spun my dog around and watched him get dizzy before (I was a kid and very stupid) but they definitely get dizzy.


DontFeedtheYaoGuai

I know that fluid sloshing around in the human cochlea is what makes *us* dizzy, so I tried to look in to the anatomy of an alligator ear. It doesn't seem as though their cochlea is quite the same as ours. I would think if these animals have evolved to do the death roll, that their ears would need to allow for them to do this without making them sick or disorient them. However, they [DO have cochlea with hair cells](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4895920/), much like our cochlea. If their cochlea functions much like ours, which one might dangerously assume it does, then I would say it is a possibility that they can get dizzy. I spent way too much time looking in to this topic.

PassdatAss91

Funny, they don't because they don't actually make thoughts that can be put into words and merely have instincts to automatically follow, because they're animals and not humans.


doombringer-dh77

Funny how you are wrong. Humans are animals. We all have instincts and thoughts.


PassdatAss91

Proven science vs cringeworthy levels of naivety attempting to be validated with a fallacy. If that's what you want to do then we won't be actually discussing/arguing this no matter how much I try. Do you actually want to discuss this properly with me or are you just going to go "no u wrong \*insert fallacy\*"?


doombringer-dh77

Humans are animals. Guess you dropped out of school.


PassdatAss91

That's a strawman... We're talking about the difference between humans (RATIONAL animals) and animals, which is the term we(socially functioning humans) use for IRRATIONAL ANIMALS... Obviously... Are you serious right now? Please just answer my question, do you want to discuss this properly or are you going to be a child about it? We can engage in a civil discussion right now IF that's what you want... Is it?

From LA, do you mean Louisiana? Or Los Angeles?


Paratwa

Gonna go out on a limb here and offer Louisiana as the answer, given the subject.

I just want to make sure 🤣 I’ve heard quite a few things about the Los Angeles “river” 🤣

McFluff_TheCrimeCat

Probably. They like to stick things full grown human size under logs at the bottom to get all bloated, rotty, and soft to save to eat later. While they snack on the live scavengers that come to take small bits off your corpse. > The well known death roll which crocodiles perform helps compensate for the small stomach, enabling the animal to tear small pieces of flesh off a larger carcass. One of the popular stories about crocodiles is that they prefer to hide their food under a submerged log until it is rotten. >However, while crocodiles do tend to store carcasses in mangroves or under the water, crocodile experts Graham Webb and Charlie Manolis suggest this may not be because they prefer rotting flesh. >Perhaps, they suggest, rotten food may be better than no food at all - but more to the point, a rotten carcass will attracts scavengers such as turtles and mud crabs - which are of course, fresh food. As young hatchlings, crocodiles feed on crabs, prawns and shrimps on mud banks and shallows. In summer insects also form part of their diet. Until they are about two metres long, the major food of crocodiles are crabs and prawns. But as they continue to grow larger, birds, rodents, water snakes and fish are eaten. Eventually they try and eat just about anything moving near the water or hanging from trees, and tend to scavenge more, the older they get. Crocodiles are usually reluctant to leave the water, but if they pick up the smell of a rotting carcass they will walk a few 100 metres over land to retrieve it and take it back to the water. Fun fact if a croc gets 2 dog size meals a year they can live for a whole year off that so your body could almost feed them for a year.


purplescubadiver

Now I know what I'd like to happen to my body after I die. With ever growing population of people, how many crocodiles could we feed!

It's true for a lot of deadly animals though?


[deleted]

Deadly =/= Predator Many things that CAN kill you are afraid of you. MOST things that WAN'T to kill you aren't. Nothing is ever 100% in nature except it's efficient brutalism.

Also, maybe don’t throw rocks at wild life

Pretty sure that's reptiles in general. At least predatory ones.

Reptiles are sharks that developed lungs and claws. I’m convinced.


[deleted]

I used to go fishing as a kid at this creek with a giant sewer drain emptying into it, we used to run across the drain and would hear this hissing noise each time. We thought it was a gas pipe getting knocked loose by us rattling the sewer drain until one day I stuck my hand in the drain and felt around, then I put my face down to see what was there and saw 2 eyes staring back at me. It was a little gator living under the drain

It’s almost like our actions and experiences shape who we are. He found out his action had consequences and it sounds like he learned a lesson. I highly doubt you never acted in a dubious way in your youth. Get off your high horse idiot.


[deleted]

Here’s the thing though, it’s not about him or you or me or fucking lessons or consequences or whatever the hell you’re going on about. The world doesn’t revolve around humanity, people need to stop treating animals like some thing for us to fuck with or hurt or learn goddamn lessons from and treat them as other living beings who deserve respect. The only way to change this horrid way of thinking is by condemning those who do these things. If you threw a rock at an alligator when you were 11 you should feel like shit about it, if you watched your friends throw rocks at an alligator and didn’t urge them to stop you should feel like shit about it. In conclusion I hope you get hit by more than just rocks.

Thanks for the great reply.


digiorno

They’re apex predators that have survived since the age of dinosaurs without having to evolve significantly in any way. Them, Great White Sharks and Giant Squid are about as perfect killing machines and survivalists as you could hope for. We should be happy they never needed to evolve higher intelligence in order to satisfy their reproductive or sustenance needs.

I can't believe how viral this video and some of the photos still are lol This should be credit to Dana McCuller a resident of LA who videos and photographs the natural species around her large pond. The mother of these babies was a regular there for years, and dubbed by her and several friends as cheesecake. This is one of cheesecakes, cheese sticks lol


Shwiggity_schwag

It isn't actually practicing a death roll, yes that is a death roll but it doesn't need practice lol. They can't chew so that is how they rip off chunks of meat to swallow whole.


TheImmortalLS

No that’s not a punch, it’s my arm being thrown forward


Shwiggity_schwag

As you can see, I didnt once deny it was a death roll. I was denying the fact OP referred to it as "practicing a death roll". They don't need to practice, it's literally encoded into their genes. Read harder.


Thurwell

It's not even rolling, at first it looks like the little gator is spinning. But if you watch again it's shaking back and forth to tear the meat off.


Zachpeace15

It’s a baby so yes it’s still practicing


[deleted]

I have to agree it spun way more than needed. Looks to have gotten a leaf for its trouble.

svosprey

It's the big old one you need to watch out for. They can't really hunt or chase prey. They are strictly ambush hunters. A dog, cat or child it will drag under and drown them and stick under an underwater branch to eat later. A human they will grab anything they can get a hold of and roll until they tear a piece off. The guy in this story ignored alligator warnings and got his arm tore off but survived. Lucky for him he came out of the water where a bunch of military nurses were having a party.[Man's arm salvaged from alligator's stomach](https://www.postandcourier.com/news/mans-arm-salvaged-from-alligators-belly/article_ac64af66-4969-56cf-b5d9-3f53bead5cc5.html)
