Earth

earth Another phenomenally good documentary, Earth follows three very different families of animals (bear, elephant and humpback whale) in their yearly journeys for survival and prosperity.

By following such different creatures, the film shows us a large swat of our planet’s ecosystem and how different species interact with each other and the nature around them.

The quality of the images, the narration (by James Earl Jones in the American version), and the flow of both are excellent, and there are a lot of very useful and interesting data as well.  I would recommend this to anyone who loves nature or animals.

Kids will surely love it, , however, the youngest ones might be a little impressed by the couple instances where an animals is chased and captured by a predator.  I guess it’s all part of life though, and it’s a good lesson for them to learn.
