Good Documentaries.

[Wegen7 die Große]

Hello I am looking for a good documentary on animals or dinosaurs(or really any documentary on the life of any type of "creature", such as documentaries like "Life of Animals" and "Walking with Dinosaurs").
Rep will be awarded to anybody who can help(but note I will not give rep for each documentary that you can find but rather for each person who can find a documentary that has not already been shown).

Walking with Dinosaurs

Walking with Dinosaurs

Those are great documentaries, but also give a lot of speculation as fact, especially on behavior.

My favorite was the one with Dimetrodon and then claiming that Dimetrodon has a innate repulsion to its own dung and was also cannibalistic with the young using the dung to escape its own mother.

Makes for a good scene but we have absolutely no proof of either.

There are several good paleobiological analyses of dinosaurs in the Scriptorium (scroll down to the Science and Natural History category).

@Acco: Thank you but I would rather like to see a television series documentary about these things instead of having to read about it.

Not quite what I was looking for, but rather more on nature documentaries.

shouldn't this thread be in athenaeum?

Well this is a question, but I guess if this thread should rather be in the athenaeum then I suppose a moderator would need to put this thread there.

"Cane Toads: An Unnatural History"
http://www.netflix.com/WiMovie/Cane-...0&trkid=438381

Friggin classic. Invasive species, extirpation of natives, societal impacts, controversy, and junkies smokin extracted toad poison...Cane Toads has it all, cleverly tied together in that laid back Australian storytelling manner. I believe that Michael Palin's stuttering character (A Fish Called Wanda) might be based upon the fish guy in this film, dude gets way worked up about the toads eating his p-p-p-pppppets.

I will rent that one out this weekend. +rep

The director is releasing a 3D Cane Toads II pretty soon, updating the timeline by 23 years. They're already in Darwin, munching everything that moves...

I'm partial to Wild Pacific : http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1458521/

Then again, I'm partial to just about anything that features Kakapos...
