Animals Not Found in Alaska & Which Animals I have Seen on My Property!!
Have you ever wondered what animals you won't find in Alaska? Does Alaska have any venomous animals? Some of the animals that do exist in Alaska will shock you! Watch this video to learn about the animals that don’t exist in Alaska. Be sure to stop by & say hi to @alaskacutthecord769 & @curmudgeinnak . At the end of the video, I stated that I would be making crawfish etouffee and would share the recipe which you can find below.
Crawfish Etouffee
Ingredients
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 medium onion chopped (or leeks)
1 medium bell pepper chopped
1 stalk celery chopped
4 cloves garlic chopped (optional - I am allergic 😉 )
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (again optional...see above)
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1/4 teaspoon crushed black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper or to taste
1/4 teaspoon salt or to taste
2 cups chicken stock or use seafood stock
1 pound crawfish tail meat par-cooked
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
2 cups white rice (cooked)
Instructions
Melt butter over medium heat in a large deep skillet. Add the flour stirring continuously until the roux turns a copper color. Do not let the roux burn. Add the trinity of vegetables (onion, peppers, celery) and garlic. Stir and cook for 5 minutes to soften. Add seasonings and spices with the broth. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the crawfish tails and warm them through. Remove from heat. Serve over white rice and garnish with hot sauce. Makes a wonderful breakfast too!

Hi Friends! I mention in this video that blackberries are not found in Alaska. This is not to say that you cannot grow them here, but they are not hardy to most of our grow zones and therefore will not establish as a perennial crop. With that being said, Alaska does have an arctic blackberry, Rubus arcticus. However, the growth habit is nothing like that of a traditional blackberry plant and the fruits are much smaller.
Mmm luv Blackberries💌💌
Yes, I struggle.. I manage to get a cup or so ripe before the frost.
Fortunately blackberries are something that grow good where we live and there is nothing like a blackberry cobbler 😋
When that Sasquatch saw you were packing heat.. he got to steppin real quick. 🤣
Good morning Annie, sorry I've been away. And haven't talked to you. You are looking well . I would love to go camping out in those woods, but 1st I would have to erect a very large chain link fence around the campgrounds. Anyway you have a Magnificent Marvelous Mother's Day. And stay safe. LOVES
that was a hilarious cameo appearance! i needed that laugh!
I have three Great Pyrenees that weigh 200 lbs each, they are breed for guard dogs, that fight off bear's, wolf's, lion's and most any other predators, they have a 700 lbs bite force, and are highly aggressive K-9's. Very loyal to their owners and Very protective of their owners, even from family members. I'll let you know when Kue and two socks have puppies.
I have 2 yorkshire terriers and a cat. They are a fierce pack together.. I dont let them out at night though, but they have fought off foxes and other smaller preditors here. 🤣
@@ibislifewe have a couple of Pyrenees and recently adopted a Boston terrier pug mix and he thinks he is just as big as they are. What he lacks in size he makes up in enthusiasm 😊
I remember watching an earlier video with that wolf howling footage. I've done plenty of solo camping in the wilderness down here but the most nervous night I've ever had was in 2009. I was camping in Kootenay National Park in Canada and there was just myself and one other couple in the huge park campground. All night I lay in my tent listening to the wolves howling. I don't think I slept for more than 10 minutes at a time all night.
The howling frightened you? Were you in fear of attack?
Hi Matt! When you’re in a tent… lol , branches breaking… rustling leaves and certainly wolves howling would get my nerves going! We have a very large abundance of Black bears and moose here in Maine… that’s enough for me!😅
Enjoyed the video very much, and loved the Bigfoot, sightings.🤗
I love watching your videos of your life in Alaska. But I nearly had an incontinence attack when Big Foot came out from behind the trees!! Thankfully we don't have them in England 😂🤣 Julie x
Porky's do climb! They climb my fences to get to my garden here in the the Texas hill country. I didn't know that either!
Yes! They are climbers! They also eat the bark on the trees! 🤦♀️
LOL your BIGFOOT pal! 😂 Awesome video, thank you!! 👍😎🇨🇦
Great video alone. I love the bloopers 😂. Disbrupte! 😂. I saw that hairy man again! He will keep warm in the winter 😂. Hope to see more of your cooking videos! Take care always!
Hi. We just bought 70 acres and we are fixing up the house to move permanently too by winter. Same as your property, no one has lived on it for upwards of ten years. The property also has lots of river fro take so there is tons of wildlife on it. So far by working out there over the last month we have seen deer moose bear coyotes beaver and wolf. We never get tired of seeing the wildlife. Anyways enough of me,,,,great video. I always enjoy seeing your videos, 🌷🇨🇦
Minute 20:00 of the video your neighbor Bigfoot behind You My Lady 😁. As I can see in your videos your cabin is located in very beatiful place 😃! Thanks for chering part of your life and experience 🙂. Until next video stay safe and healthy 😃👋👋🇵🇦 🌲🌲
Hi Alone! I LOVE watching your videos! Always beautiful scenery and the awesome wildlife you have there in Alaska! And always informative! Give Kenai a nice belly rub for me!🐕😊Take care… and be careful when you are out on your land! 🙏(as I know, you always are👍)
Alaskan snow snake lol 😂. I hear they’re cold as ice. Lol lol 😂
Boy did I learn a lot about animals in your video. No snakes in Alaska!!!!!! I’m packing my bags right now and I’m heading to Alaska 🤣. Thank you so much for taking time to explain about the different animals in Alaska. 🤗💕
Surprise...surprise...I just got online and here is a new vid' from you...great way to start my weekend.👍
What a lovely and interesting episode. Thank you so much for sharing. Have a wonderful weekend.
Oh my goodness Bigfoot keeps showing up in your videos!! I wonder if he plans on being the star in your videos someday. lol. Your view is gorgeous and your property is too!! Love it all. Hugs and kisses to sweet Kenai. Take care and God Bless you and Kenai always
Big Foot ?!??! Thought was a Cal native ! 😮😁😸 What a backyard view ... ❤️🔥😍🦾🇺🇸
Love the Bigfoot sighting 😂 ,Great channel
I’m looking forward to seeing what you capture on your game cameras. Additionally, I think it will be interesting to see what plants thrive in your backyard. I would guess the first generation will be composed a lot of Fireweed. In the fall, that will be beautiful.
I can attest that Alaska is a very friendly state. I live in the South and I think Alaska is the only state “up north” that compares. Definitely looking forward to retirement near Wasilla in a few years (I didn’t know porcupines climbed trees either until a few months ago).
Here we only have rattlesnakes, and I'm always on the lookout for them.
Hey love. Found your channel. Watching an older video of yours. three years ago wife and I sold our house in Washington state and bought a farm in Missouri. She’s there now I’m back in Washington state working and I drop the bomb to her after this project. I’m headed to Alaska. I love the fact statement you made one of your old videos I don’t wanna die in a nursing home a hospital or anywhere else and I go back up there to live out the rest of my life being I’m getting older. So I’m soon going to be hunting for a chunk of land and a cabin up there and I’m learning from you what to look for. Keep up the good work !!!❤
Love the info you give and I really liked to see your Bigfoot and outtakes!!🤗
Nature at it's best. Most of the animals you mentioned that don't live in Alaska, we have here in Costa Rica. I've had Pumas, jaguars, kinkapoos, in my yard and of course monkies everywhere. Snakes and crocs abound, dangerous and deadly, and all protected. The Fer de Lance just recently killed a friend's 7yo daughter when their house flooded. We rarely have animal attacks except for the snake and croc. Most animals are used to people and just ignore them. I am glad you are armed and can protect yourself. But this abundance of wildlife is one reason why we move to places like Alaska and Costa Rica. True adventure. Thanks for a very informative vlog. I feel more educated about the 49th state now. Give Kenai a big hug. And yes looking forward to some cooking videos.
I absolutely love your bloopers! 😂 I have been watching you since the start:) LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
I learned a lot by watching your video. The sasquatch was stepping high when he saw the gun. Take care
Love it, I’m from Maine and moved to texas, now home sick,being half native we moose hunt deer hunt, and anything wild we grew up on,I did run into Bigfoot once, the native name is gwackoo it means one who eats a lot, never believed in it growing up, thought it was just a boogie man to control us little Indians, lol boy did I get a suprise at 16 years old, I believe now, at 6 foot 7 inches and 300 pounds, I felt so tiny standing in from of it, I was to scared to move, all I could say was a kinda grunt, lol it looked at me for about one minute, wasn’t threatening in anyway, and turned and just walked away, now at 65 years old, I still wish I could have tried talking to it, never see it again, but saw tracks many years later while snowmobiling, but that’s it, I don’t think it would hurt anyone, but wild animals can’t be trusted, thanks for your awesome videos ❤
Learned a lot. Very good video and thank you much. 😅
Hi Alone, as usual, enjoyed the video! Sitting home on a Friday night and was glad to see this. Made me feel good inside. Thank you 😊
Handsome fury fella walking across behind u😂
Nice video informative on what animals are and are not in Alaska. Years ago I had a Linx for a pet he was beautiful. I see Mr. Big- a- foot is still around 😅. Hugs to Kenai . Blessings to you and your family. 😊🇺🇲
Thank you for pronouncing Coyotes correctly. Born & raised in AZ, I'm all to familiar with them. New subscriber as of today, & binge watching. I've mentioned this in comments on other videos, but l don't know how far you go back & read comments. God speed. ☦️ Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister ☦️ 🙏🏻
A good video. I learned many things I didn't know. WOW! this is May a still a little snow around in some parts of Alaska.
Love that footage of the creature you snuck in at the 20:00 minute mark. 🤣🤣🤣 Really enjoyed your video.
Thank you Alone for the generous shout out! Always appreciated. Stay safe out there!
So sorry I missed your livestream today! Hoping you guys had a great trip today!
I am so happy, I can across your video. Wow, what an educational video this is. It is fantastic of every thing you describes even to the little mice. I also see you don't have snow anymore. Is this normal? You should writes some books and videos about Alaska and sell them. I love everything you have shown and talked about. Thank you so much. Please take care and stay save❤❤
You are living the dream. Wish I had gone up when I had the chance. You are lucky.
Hello alone
Hi Alone,very interesting video.Lucky on the no snakes.Can you use those trees that were knocked down for fire wood?Take care.
Oh I have to tell you, this morning some driver took out a power pole and knocked out power for the entire valley. I didn't notice because I never lost power, it's great not living on the grid. 😃😎😇
You should keep extra ammo in your pocket just in case on your walks
LOL...I think she's LOCKED AND LOADED.
Great video today. Thank you ❤️😁🌹
Thank you,very interesting.glad you don't have mountain lyons.
Hi Alone! Great to see your video uploaded, even with all the internet issues you were having. Friday night, perfect timing! Really enjoyed watching you out and about on your property. As we hear you say no blackberries, and read what you wrote in the comments, we were surprised to hear that. We have a five plus acre field full of blackberries. We would miss harvesting them evey year. Free fruit! Nice to see one wildlife surprise in your video again! He surely gets around! LOL Another great video. See you on the next one!
Hi Paula and Jason! Congratulations on your first 600 subscribers! That is awesome! Yes, I was disappointed to find learn that common blackberries and even hops do not grow wild in Alaska. These are two of my favorite plants. I may just try planting some in pots and see if I can get them to overwinter. Not sure how I would be able to make that happen, but maybe I will find a way. 🤗🐺💗
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska TY so much! Jason and I are so excited watching our channel grow. We were thinking you could grow them outside, then bring them into your basement for the winter. It's worth a try. They may even survive as a house plant. LOL We will dig some up, bring them in our sunroom and do a test run! Keep you posted. If there's a will there's a way! Hope you have a Happy Mothers Day!
Loving a episode all about animals. I would really love having that possibility. . Looking forward to seeing any captures from your cameras. Did you mention beavers?
Enjoyed watching and learning about your state it’s a beautiful place to be.
Footie Man! 👍🏽
Loved all of the information, thank you! And that was quite a large Alaskan Snow Snake...heads up!! 🐍😅
Your doing a great job thanks
You have some amazing views!!! Thank you for sharing . . .
Enjoyed the history lesson - always interesting!
Great video ! Stay safe ,God bless !❤
Another amazing video from an Amazing person we all love. Thank you Alone for the amazing shout out. We love you.
Hello Alone!!! Thank you for a very good video...❤
Very educational thanks
Oh how I love your videos! I am going to save up for an ipad; watching on my phone does not do them justice. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful lady and beautiful land never made it to Alaska, closest I got to Alaska was fort Nelson in northern British Columbia, stay safe
Very interesting video.
" A cougar and a mountain lion are essentially the same animal. They're simply called different names in different parts of the world". Feb 27, 2020 HowStuffWorks
Little known fact about Swans In England. It's a tradition going back centuries in the Royal Family - but it's something most of us don't actually understand. That's right, Crown does actually own all the swans in England. Oh, and a bunch of other animals too.
Hi JR! Yes, I had heard that before, but it is still very interesting. Another viewer asked if people eat swans, which I had never given any thought to before today. As it turns out the reason the Royal family owns all the swans in England is that King Henry III loved eating swan and eventually this law was put into place so that the commonwealth could not feast like a king. Who knew??? 😳 🤗🐺💗
Beautiful flowers
Enjoyed all the info on the animals! Skunks are no loss…!!😂 You are very brave… I’m afraid I may have slept in the car if I knew wolves were outside my cabin!!!
Great video! Val C
Great Video!
Thanks, Scott! Glad that you liked the video. 🤗🐺💗
Awesome, beautiful lady and a beautiful area
Kenai is enough wildlife for us!
Very good to see you always good videos you're lucky to have all about wet mud I'm putting sprinklers on my roof it's already way too dry going to have a lot of wildfires Fires here this year not looking forward to it I'm already having to put up shears over my garden tomorrow cause it's way too hot for the garden right now already going to be a very scary year now looking forward to this summer
Lol. Great video
On those hills, flowers will not hold soil. I don't know why you took away the native vegetation, but you have an uphill battle because those bushes and trees will not be absorbing all that moisture.
I did something the same as you do in planting wildfires pollinators all over my lot front yard side yards covered in White Clover Crimson Clover got Timothy grass coming up and I planted regular grass and once it's growing up I would be letting the chickens in it for half an hour every night before dark so they can't tear it up again and it will feed them I also put my old steel bathtub in the backyard filled it up with logs wood and soil then I put the same in the bathtub and I put wire over top of the bathtub so they can't rip it all out they can only eat what gets up high give them a little bit of greens in the backyard too yummy happy chickens good eggs
Loved video especially❤ big foot.
Did you miss big foot????. I got a foot of snow last nite and today and hav been without elec since thursday afternoon!!!!
Porkys cli.b trees everywhere, didn't know Alaska had them, th even are cougars in AL as ka but there limited to I think more coastal areas, Fred Rhual knows the areas.
we do have mountain lions up here in alaska even down here on the kenai peninsula! i know this for a fact, i have seen photo`s taken here on the peninsula of one and another of a mother lion and a cub, photo taken not more than 12 miles from my place.
Do'nt worry about Adders, flower. They, like all "wild" animals despise "humans", and give us a wide berth. We've had 'em here in Albion for millenia, and there's a handful of recorded "death by snake bite"
I can’t think of any animal you would want to run away from in Alaska
Interesting about the mosquitoes. I wonder if they have ticks in Alaska?
20:05 🤣
Do you have trouble with ticks?
He was a big'un! 😅
You might team up with Chuke from Chuke's Outdoor Adventures - an Alaska based content creator - he will help you find a big foot.
God's country so perty up there
I heard Alaska also doesn't have snakes. Is that true? I live in Arizona and we could send some of ours up there. I do know that Hawaii doesn't not have snakes.... I don't understand a tropical paradise that doesn't have snakes.
Fodcwhat readon were they inteoducing racoons into Alaska ??? I thought they were pests in lower 48 ?? What use are they anywhere ??
i have a couple raccooons around me in ohio
HOWDY 💌 Ace
Have you ever had a problem with strange people out there?
Is there wood ticks in Alaska?
Do you think a taser gun could paralyze a bear or moose or wolf? Ty.
Siberian Tigers are in ALASKA
6:41 or it might be weed...😁
According to LA Marzulli, it's from the bloodline of the nephelim giants of Genesis 6.
Do people there eat swan meat?? Ty.
That was a great video of your homestead 👍👍👍🇺🇸🌹
Lol!!! Bigfoot!
wht is bigfoot's name
sad that they kill wolves ,just a big dog..
I don't think Hawaii has racoons.
