DESCRIPTION:LIFE OF MAMMALS\nby David Attenborough\n\nThis documentary is pure magic.  
 A lot of thought went into its content -- from spectacular visuals to 
 awesome sound and content structure.  It reveals how intricate the web of 
 life on this planet is and how threatened it is.  From deer-like rodents in 
 Patagonia whose activities seem to confuse a nearby burrowing owl (whose 
 burrow the Maras had snatched) to a female Leopard sneaking into a rural 
 village in India to steal domestic goats because its natural prey base was 
 scarce.  From bizarre (platypus), to large (whales), tiny (harvest mice), 
 blind (golden mole), fast (cheetah), slow (sloth), to the ones that fly 
 (bats) -- this documentary covers the entire spectrum of mammals in 
 stunning visuals and captivating narration.  The filmmaker, David 
 Attenborough, is thorough and scientifically accurate.  His screen presence 
 is comforting and his lifetime of experience ensures that the content is 
 seamless and exciting.  He is able to show us firsts: new behavior and 
 discoveries, sometimes even new animals.  What distinguishes mammals from 
 other animals is their ability to adapt.  The documentary goes into 
 incredible depth about all the different intricacies of the mammals’ 
 lives and how they coexist with each other and humans.  It is perhaps the 
 best wildlife documentary ever made.  And it stands as a great proof of 
 evolution.  Although the film never comes right out and specifically talks 
 about evolution, it is a subtext throughout the film.  The mechanics of 
 evolution are so clear that it would be hard to question evolution after 
 watching this film.\n\nBefore and after the films, everyone’s invited to 
 indulge in our Humanist Tea House\n\n$5  donations are accepted\n\n\n \n
