Once again, there is a huge amount of excellent high-definition video footage. 130 phenomenal scenes from different parts of wildlife, 54 of them were filmed for the first time. Non-trivial methods of hunting and protection, attracting a partner and caring for offspring, unique courtship rituals and all sorts of extraordinary abilities, tricks and skills. Some were simply amazing and almost unbelievable.
Good informative texts, quite detailed, but not boring descriptive. Attenborough reads them perfectly. Good editing, scenes and events not only capture the viewer's attention, but also cause certain emotions. The music of George Fenton wonderfully complements this entertaining rather than popular science show.
It turned out to be a fascinating, spectacular and impressive mini-series, very informative in fact, very interesting and informative and richly saturated with visually perfect shots. I recommend.
Language. Attenborough speaks perfectly - correct and legible pronunciation, precise intonation and balanced emotions. Subtitles, in my opinion, are needed only for individual words and terms.
