fascinating program indeed!
i also loved the harpy eagle and anaconda. was great to see fearless giant otter, too.
and the two species of large rodent!
seems that climb up the cliff was worth while too...great sights.
the president of Guyana seems very cool...it is a shame that the "decision" as it were rests with our government!
sad to say, i bet it stops there...Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars... Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.

OMG!!! Did someone say HARPY EAGLE!!!
Those birds are badass!! I saw one on Nat Geo Wild, tank a three toed sloth of a vine!!! And then pop its skull withits five inch rear talon!!!!
I also looked on the net, there was a huge eagle from New Zealand the Haast's Eagle used to nail prey slightly smaller than an EMU!!!! Pity its been extinct since 1400 odds. Why couldn't there have been more people like us back then DAMN IT!!!!

I have flown a few birds of prey and I feel very sad to think I will never get to fly a Harpy eagle. They must be the most awesome bird on the planet! I'll get a Gos for my lad and me when he's olderOriginally posted by michaelmckinney View Post

Seriously Kirk,
Good stuff mate, I'm fascinated by all creatures great and small. I know people big into reptiles and spiders but when I start talking about programmes I've watched about humboldt squid or falcons they say nah that stuff bores me, and I just don't see how!!
I remember watching something about a peregrine falcon, divebombs a pigeon at 400 KPH!!! without taking it's eye off the prize, now how can someone say thats not cool, come on like!!!!

I have a funny little book called BUGS, 500 pages of interesting facts, some good some not so good eg. Butterflies practice two kinds of mimicry - Batesian and Mullerian. In Batesian mimicry a harmless species mimics a toxic species. In Mullerian mimicry two equally toxic species mimic each other for mutual benefit. (Quite interesting I thought) And then there's this about hoverflies - Hoverflies are fast movers (honestlyOriginally posted by Lisa Baines View Postmy dad bought me a lot of the books that accompanied tv nature documentary's, and there are tonnes more facts in the books than they show on the TV. I love the weird and wonderful world of animals!.. and inverts
)They are usually seen hovering motionless in the air! I think they must have been running low on interesting facts on hoverflies, although I do still quite like the book.

Funny you should say about Zoology Kirk,
At the moment I'm doing an HND in biological sciences, and hopefully will start my Zoology degree next September, so some day you might see a programme featuring me LOL!!
Something along the lines of; "Lost Land of the Harpy Eagle" LOL!!!!
I can dream, can't I!!
