Great Lakes untamed. [videorecording] / by McIntyre Media,distributor.;
The Great Lakes watershed is one of the world's largest freshwater ecosystems. 4,000 kilometers of coastline and are home to more than 3,500 plant and animal species. Each of the lakes' ecosystems has a unique inter-relationship with wildlife. Beavers and wolves jointly control the purity and flow of water into Lake Superior. Loons hunt fish in its clear waters. Lake Michigan has the world's largest freshwater sand dunes and the endangered piping plover. Scientists work to prevent Michigan River's invasive silver carp from entering this ecosystem. Lake Huron has one of the largest concentrations of shipwrecks in the world. Lake Erie is a bi-annual stopping point for millions of migrating birds. Pelee Island shores shelter the endangered blue racer snake. Niagara Falls, the most powerful waterfall in the world, drains the lake. Lake Ontario has the world's largest population of cormorants. Huge amounts of clean water enter it from the Ottawa River (the 6th of the Great Lakes). In the river's vast underwater cave system, millions of mussels filter the water. It will take 200 years for a drop of water to flow from the source of Lake Superior to the mouth of the St. Lawrence River, the largest estuary on Earth.E.DVD.

Great Lakes untamed. [videorecording] / by McIntyre Media,distributor.;
Animals of the Great Lakes cope with the most extreme, unpredictable temperature changes on Earth - from summer highs of 40 degrees to winter lows of minus 40. This transformation creates mysteries and marvels of evolution, life uniquely adapted to change. This land of wonder has weird and unique animal behaviours. The world's largest mass spawning occurs near Lake Michigan. Wolves fish for white suckerfish to feed their pups. Massasauga Rattlesnakes swim between Lake Huron's 30,000 islands to give birth to live young. A mother moose dives to the bottom of the lake to feed her calf. A thirty-year-old female salamander, the world's only 'photosynthetic vertebrate', makes an epic migration across snow near Lake Huron. In Lake Erie, colourful redside dace have evolved to catch insects in the air. Parasitic mussels imitate minnows to lure their prey and biologists use innovative new science to battle invasive sea lamprey. The adaptation of wildlife to successfully live and thrive in the Great Lakes watershed gives us hope about the future of the world's greatest and most important freshwater ecosystem.E.DVD.

Seven worlds, one planet : natural wonders from every continent / by Keeling, Jonny,author.; Alexander, Scott(Scott Campbell),author.; Attenborough, David,1926-writer of foreword.;
Long ago, our planet had only one gigantic land mass. Then something monumental happened. That supercontinent ruptured and seven different worlds were born. Each of those worlds - or continents - evolved, and continues to evolve, its own way of life. From the jungle of the Congo or the majestic Himalayas to the densely populated wilds of Europe or the comparatively isolated Australasia, Seven Worlds, One Planet explores the natural wonders that give each of our continents its distinct character. Following the animals that have made these iconic environments their home, it discovers spectacular wildlife stories that reveal what makes each of these seven worlds unique. With a foreword by Sir David Attenborough and over 250 breathtaking images, including stills from the BBC Natural History Unit's spectacular footage, Seven Worlds, One Planet is a stunning exploration of the planet, and the worlds within it, that we call home.

Frozen planet II : a world of wonder beyond the ice / by Brownlow, Mark,author.; White, Elizabeth(Producer),author.;
Find a world of wonder beyond the ice. 'Looking down at our planet from space it may come as a surprise how much of it is blanketed in snow and ice. These vast frozen wildernesses cover more than a fifth of the earth ... From the highest peaks to snow-bound deserts to alien worlds deep beneath the ice, they are home to an astonishing array of animals found nowhere else on earth.' David Attenborough, from the series. Frozen Planet II celebrates the surprisingly diverse worlds of ice-a world that is disappearing before our very eyes. Previously undiscovered stories, from chameleons giving birth on the frosty slopes of Mount Kenya to endangered Amur leopards in the Russian forest and killer whales hunting Weddell seals on ice floes in the Antarctic, shed new light on the beauty and the peril of the world's most fragile ecosystems. Behind-the-scenes insights explore the unique challenges of filming in these frozen worlds, where camera crew and wildlife alike brave the extreme conditions. With over 250 stunning full-colour photographs, Frozen Planet II reveals the wonders of the fastest-changing part of our planet, as we may never see them again.
