00:00:08
running in a circle
00:00:10
why do deer dance in circles nature is full of
00:00:18
secrets and mysteries and some of them
00:00:21
still never cease to amaze humanity,
00:00:24
despite the fact that for scientists many
00:00:27
phenomena are no longer a secret, people
00:00:33
this happens, for example, did you know
00:00:37
why do deer dance in a circle very often
00:00:41
these artiodactyls gather in a herd and
00:00:43
begin circling in one place from the
00:00:46
air this phenomenon looks
00:00:50
running many deer in a circle which
00:00:53
from above looks unusually even
00:00:56
why do deer make such an unusual
00:01:00
let's understand the protective instinct
00:01:06
despite the fact that deer have been living side by side
00:01:09
with humans for many years;
00:01:11
this animal has never been completely tamed; the
00:01:14
artiodactyls still seethe with
00:01:18
wild blood, which reminds them
00:01:21
that at any moment they need to quickly
00:01:23
break into a run or group and
00:01:26
protect the weak individuals of old patients, as
00:01:29
well as females and cubs, a similar phenomenon
00:01:33
is characteristic not only of deer in the
00:01:36
wild; there are often cases when
00:01:38
artiodactyls line up in a circle, but
00:01:41
buffalos, cows or even elephants, when a
00:01:45
threat arises, they huddle together,
00:01:47
leaving behind those who need to be
00:01:51
however, round dances are not always introduced by these mammals,
00:01:55
but strong individuals become in in a row or
00:01:58
in a circle, turning the horns or sharp tusks
00:02:01
towards the enemy.
00:02:03
In this case, predators have minimal
00:02:05
chances for a successful attack.
00:02:07
For example, if a hungry lion in the savannah
00:02:10
dares to hunt a baby elephant, then the
00:02:13
probability of him feasting on the prey is
00:02:15
small, but the fact that his ribs will be broken is
00:02:18
very possible since in his
00:02:21
direction several pairs of strong tusks will be turned at once; the
00:02:27
retain a natural instinct of protection;
00:02:30
young, old or wounded, and individuals
00:02:33
as well as pregnant females
00:02:35
attract predators, such as bears
00:02:42
such artiodactyls cannot defend themselves on their own, so the
00:02:44
deer simply gather in a herd and
00:02:46
begin to circle around weak relatives
00:02:49
For a predator, such a wall is almost
00:02:53
insurmountable, so the chances that a hungry
00:02:57
will give up trying to attack increase significantly.
00:03:00
Each deer protects the back of a
00:03:03
running relative in front and at the same time creates an
00:03:06
obstacle for those who want to feast on the
00:03:08
weaker ones about spam,
00:03:10
although the likelihood that a predator will attack
00:03:16
wild blood, it is a mistake to think that deer
00:03:22
only in wild conditions; in
00:03:25
fact, very often these artiodactyls
00:03:28
dance in circles even in pens;
00:03:30
perhaps they do not really rely on a
00:03:33
fence built by man, and in
00:03:36
our eyes, deer in pens are
00:03:38
safe; it is possible that even
00:03:41
when surrounded by a strong fence
00:03:44
artiodactyls continue to feel fear and
00:03:46
do not feel peace; by the way, deer can
00:03:50
dance in a circle
00:03:52
due to their agility and activity; the
00:03:56
same cows, when a threat arises,
00:03:58
use a similar principle, but they are not
00:04:01
so fast, therefore they rely on the blow of the
00:04:04
horns of deer; the nature of their character is more
00:04:08
active; myths and guesses about the nature of
00:04:16
despite the fact that this phenomenon is
00:04:19
not new to nature and
00:04:21
there are many documentaries on similar topics,
00:04:23
people still continue to
00:04:26
ask questions for what purpose,
00:04:29
some of the assumptions
00:04:32
excite the imagination so much
00:04:33
that they quickly take root on the Internet and
00:04:36
become almost a reliable fact,
00:04:39
for example like this video with
00:04:42
deer circling there are comments that
00:04:44
the animals dance for the sole
00:04:47
purpose of preserving heat;
00:04:49
however, knowing that the undercoat of these
00:04:53
artiodactyls contains pur, such a
00:04:55
hypothesis can be easily discarded;
00:04:58
deer skin has excellent
00:05:01
heat-protective properties; it consists of
00:05:04
thick hollow hairs; the dense
00:05:08
prevents the movement of air inside the
00:05:10
meter itself therefore, deer are able to
00:05:13
stay warm and even sleep in the snow. It’s not in
00:05:16
vain that the tundra Germans, like any other
00:05:19
indigenous peoples of the north, use
00:05:22
reindeer fur 2 sewing clothes in
00:05:24
harsh climates, such things not
00:05:27
only last a long time but also help to survive the
00:05:29
most difficult weather conditions,
00:05:32
there are those who believe that deer will certainly survive
00:05:36
help the earth spin, but in this
00:05:40
case all that remains is to shrug off
00:05:42
even arguments confirming the
00:05:45
absurdity of such a theory; there is no
00:05:49
circle of samsara and
00:05:52
time, by the way, in the rituals of nomads,
00:05:56
whirling is of interest not only
00:05:59
as a behavioral effect,
00:06:02
but also as a method of physical and mental
00:06:04
coverage of space, often a circle or
00:06:08
oval which when moving, deer form
00:06:11
is associated with nomadic dynamics and
00:06:13
is a contrast to the statics of the
00:06:16
square in sedentary cultures, even such
00:06:20
samsara or mandala denote the movement of
00:06:24
life, often when trying to depict them,
00:06:28
artists resort to the shape of a circle;
00:06:31
people, like many animals, have a
00:06:34
keen sense of their surroundings and themselves in
00:06:37
it in a rough interpretation, it can be
00:06:40
assumed that a person, on the one hand,
00:06:42
seems to experience surges of courage and
00:06:45
energy when he surrounds opponents and, on the
00:06:49
other hand, feels
00:06:50
devastation and fear when surrounded;
00:06:54
many researchers also believe that the
00:06:57
circle itself does not have any given
00:07:00
properties, but if movement begins in it, then
00:07:03
something extraordinary happens,
00:07:06
especially if a mass of herd is circling, then
00:07:13
the space is being mastered, remember the designation of
00:07:17
infinity or time, very often the
00:07:20
images of a wheel or figure eight are used
00:07:23
and movement is subconsciously added, the
00:07:29
meaning of the environment in the life of the Arctic
00:07:32
nomads of the northerners among the nomadic Germans,
00:07:36
for example, many maneuvers while touching
00:07:39
or grazing deer, too are carried out according to a
00:07:42
circular pattern, for example, a nomadic camp can
00:07:45
unfold into a ribbon while moving and, when
00:07:48
parked, fold into some kind of
00:07:50
ring or semi-ring,
00:07:53
if you believe the researchers, any
00:07:55
actions of grazing a reindeer herd,
00:07:58
stopping movement, arranging a
00:08:01
camp, or completing a ritual have the appearance of a
00:08:04
rounding; in general, a circle in the life of the Germans
00:08:09
has its own special meaning
00:08:11
even than at the base it is round
00:08:15
and some rituals are also carried out in a
00:08:17
circle, for example, during a wedding, the caravan
00:08:21
first circles around the tent of the
00:08:23
bride’s father and then three times around the
00:08:26
groom’s tent, even dances sometimes contain
00:08:30
movement in a circle, this is completely going back to the
00:08:35
history with a custom in conclusion
00:08:40
like this Thus, it is not difficult to guess that the
00:08:44
blood of deer also retains its own customs that
00:08:47
came with experience. Of course, it is generally
00:08:50
accepted that round dances are introduced to protect
00:08:53
weak individuals, this is the most widespread
00:08:57
theory, if not a fact in scientific
00:09:00
circles, but in life there is always room for a mystery,
00:09:04
so you can never be
00:09:07
sure even in what you would think
00:09:09
you know 100 percent,
