Nature Watch
Planet Earth – Great Plains – David Attenborough. The star of this episode of ”Planet Earth” is a very special plant: grass, because it can survive snow, fire, water, heat and cold, and it’s also a precious food source for many animals!
Mountains: Life in Thin Air – Narrated by John Hurt. Life in the mountains demands elaborate adaptations, for despite the extreme biological diversity people often have little choice of meat supply, despite elaborate hunting methods such as nets in clearings to lure giant bats.
