They jump to cross the border!

Wonder how many concussions they typically get from doing this

What if there's no shade nearby, would they continue to jump until sundown?

For those interested, I explained what a Mexican jumping bean is and how it happens stage by stage it's not magic🌚. Have a short read 😂 Cheers 🥂 😅

I'm Mexican and I've nerver seen a single jumping bean.

So the jumping is just a tiny caterpillar doing emergency gymnastics to stay in a cooler, safer spot. 🌱😄

Wild Kratts kids already know this, but apparently wild Kratts is old now so the kids don't know this...

I always wondered how they got in there

i don't wanna torture moth larvae

months of suffering mhen

Wow God is great!

I have chills of disgust seeing this

@rickygervais Send this to Karl. lol

Ancient

The larvae in the video is Scarabaeidae larva, it's should be a beetle when it's emerging as imago, but it's become moth 😂

Hmmm

Bro, Zack’s animations never fail to unlock a new fear or completely ruin my childhood hdkshshs. 💀🐛 Learning that Mexican jumping beans literally have a tiny caterpillar inside cooking alive in image_86a684.png is wild. I thought it was just gas or magic, now I'm highkey traumatized, fr.

wait is it actually a moth larva moving inside?? that's wild lol

duplicate video

So the bean is basically a panic room with legs. Nature is so unserious sometimes 😭

that thing actually alive? 😭

Funny little guys. ♡

ngl I always thought it was some kind of magic as a kid. Turns out it’s just a moth larva doing calisthenics in there lol.

Did you know that Mexican Food is so great that UNESCO officially designated it as an "Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity"? Have a short read about it's history. Cheers 🥂 😅

How come
