A fish trap of sticks passes 1.2 million for DO Animals
The month-old trapping video is still the channel's busiest, while a new eel trap and a forest idea filled out a two-upload week.
DO AnimalsStory of Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
Survival Skills: SIMPLE and USEFUL with Fish trapping tool #survival #bushcraft #fishing
DO Animals keeps its formula plain, and so do its titles: nearly every one begins "Survival Skills: SIMPLE and USEFUL," names a tool, and ends in a string of hashtags about bushcraft and fishing. The about text is just as brief, a thank-you for watching and nothing more. The videos do the talking.
The one doing most of it this week went up a month ago. "Survival Skills: SIMPLE and USEFUL with Fish trapping tool" has passed 1.2 million views and is still drawing far more each day than anything else on the channel. A second video under the very same title, a week younger, is a distant follower, which suggests the trap itself, more than the name, is what people come for.
The new uploads went to the water and into the trees. An eel trap followed the fish trap on September 29 and opened well, then settled. "Survival Skills: SMART idea and USEFUL in Forest" arrived on October 3 and is picking up views faster than the eel video now does.
Overall it was a slower stretch: daily views ran at about half their usual level, though new subscribers kept arriving at close to a thousand a day. Among outdoors and homesteading channels of similar size, Vanwives and BLOCKETH OUTDOORS were having the big weeks, while Farmhouse on Boone and Anne of All Trades were quieter too.
