Nature!

Only the documentaries with Morgan Freeman xD

 

Man I used to watch so many nature shows as a kid, now I hardly watch any of them. Discovery channel used to be my station. Now I hardly even touch the tv. If I had to chose which show I miss the most it was a special that aired in 2000 or so called Raising the Mammoth. They found a mammoth perfectly preserved in ice in syberia and are trying to use...DNA samples from it to bring the mammoths back to life though a breeding program. They even found a viable/grow-able food source underneath it which I'm sure they've been working on over the past decade and a half. The other Shows I miss are Amazing Animals and crocodile hunter: croc files. RIP Steve Irwin.

 

Do not get me started on nature. I love nature so much, and I feel more at home with the animals than at cities and with buildings. If I say why I love nature, I would be going on forever and ever. The nature possesses such amazing beauty that humans are destroying everyday - they steal from it, destroy it and treat the beautiful wildlife within it as if they were slaves of humans. I dislike what humans do to nature. It must be stopped. I mean, you could call me a tree hugger!

As for nature shows and documentaries, Sir David Attenborough's films are spotlight perfect. I feel as if I must watch his documentaries and his alone. They are narrated with such feeling, such information and the photographers did an absolutely wonderful job capturing perfect shots. He is a true star, and I love his works. What else I can say is that his tone and words are very descriptive, they bring you into his films.

 

I have watched way too many nature documentaries. National Geographic and Animal Planet never failed to entertain me with all the documentaries and episodes surrounding our planet and its incredible biosphere. I usually prefer the documentaries that go into the detail of the lifestyle and adaptations of creatures that live in a particular ecosystem that would be abnormal to that of a human. Things like a show involving the life of penguins in Antarctica and how they go for incredible treks across miles and miles of ice, a family of chimps residing in a jungle using their problem solving skills to do amazing things like spear hunting, or even a colony of ants that have such an elaborate abode from their perspective that can be found in places that aren't even remote at all! Nature is so vast and mysterious and depending on your perspective, it can just be so fascinating.

 

I like watching nature documentaries a lot, especially about specific animals(wolves and foxes have interested me, as well as birds). This was long ago, however, and now I simply don't have the time to sit down and watch a 90 minute long show. So I really don't watch much anymore, but occasionally I still sit down and catch a portion. And when they are wolves/foxes/birds involved, I'm more likely to finish it

 

I watch for the carnage. Why go to the mall when I can watch a maul?

Seriously. Watching a Feraligatr death-roll a Zebstrika in a river, or a Keckleon break a Scyther's neck with a precision tongue-jab, or a pride of Luxray all climbing aboard a Mamoswine with their teeth and claws in its hide as it tries to shake them off? Some of the most brutally astounding things I've seen on TV.

 

I love nature documentaries! When I was young, I could watch them for hours. Too bad I don't really have time (and the motivation) to go watch more TV nowadays though. Also, the only free nature channel we get at home is Nat Geo Wild, and it feels like I've seen most of the documentaries already... Too bad.
