Wild Horses: Nature's Survivors in North America

In this episode of Predator Pets, we learn about Mark's exotic animals including his alligator and tarantula. We see how Mark is an expert handler and cares for many different species of exotic animals. We then venture to visit Joe Taft at the Exotic Feline Rescue Center, which has rescued just under 200 big cats where staff and volunteers are trained in caring for these magnificent creatures. We visit Val and her energetic bobcats and learn that although they may seem domesticated, bobcats are in no way normal pets. Predator Pets: Thousands of people around the world keep pets that most of us would consider extreme. The list of options is long, alligators, bears, wolves, snakes, chimpanzees, deer, bison, and many more. But have we crossed the line by keeping wild and undomesticated animals as pets, is it a case of the wildebeest asking the crocodile if it likes to swim? The series investigates extreme pet ownership through interviews with owners, vets, zoo keepers, town officials, police, and neighbors. The Man With 200 Big Cats (Wildlife Documentary HD) | Predator

Nature holds many surprises in a moor: It seems as if some of the most bizarre and colorful members of our native species live in the bog. The film shows the biodiversity of the often rarely recognized habitat - and it is a quiet appeal to save and preserve the last moors intact. The Moors: Plants that eat animals live here and so does mushrooms that suck the life out of plants. The rutting dance of the Great snipes and the hatching of a great crane chick are just a few of the miracles happening in a moor every season. Amazing discoveries are to be made here. It is a colourful community of creatures, a habitat with many faces. The vegetation acts as a sponge, soaking up all surplus water and the small silver heads of the cotton grass emerges from brown blades. Turf wars between adder snakes and the enveloping and digesting of small insects by plants are wonders to be seen deep inside the moor.

Wild River Rhine | Nature Documentary There is hardly any other river in Germany that is surrounded by as many myths and legends as the river Rhine. No other river has been the topic of songs, has been painted and travelled equally frequently. Despite this it still seems to be true today what the French poet Victor Hugo once said about this river – the Rhine is a river everybody talks about, nobody explores, everybody visits but no one really knows. It is the second longest river in Central and Western Europe after the Danube. Medieval castles, important industrial sites and lush vineyards - this is what river Rhine is famous for. This river however is much more than what man had made it. Even though man has settled next to the river and the stream has been used as means of transportation for thousands of years, it's banks still host a stunning variety of wildlife habitats. Alluvial forests, roaring waterfalls, steep canyons and sunny slopes flank the river along its some 1230km. The variety of habitats is the reason

Animal Armory - Episode 5: Spits & Stings | Animal Documentary For many species in the animal kingdom, spitting and stinging is a vital tool for self-defense and in the pursuit of prey. Animal Armory takes a closer look at the mighty instruments of destruction and the animals that wield them with absolute precision. In Arctic waters, the walrus depends on its ability to spit in order to feed. The cobra projects its venomous saliva to blind its predators. Spitting provides the jawfish with a home – and a means to defend it. Putting their lives on the line, bees will use stings to attack any threat to their colony. Jellyfish trawl their stingers through the world’s oceans to subdue prey and ward off predators. The echidna is constantly protected by their densely packed, needle-like armor of spines. The Stingray’s powerful, barbed tail and potent venom is the stuff of legends, and the carnivorous centipede is granted access to a wide range of prey thanks to its paralyzing sting. Animal Armory takes a closer look at the mighty instruments of

Iceland - Home of Europe's Strongest Horses | Animal Documentary Iceland, the island of longing in the North. The biggest volcanic island in the world is known for its grandiose landscape, for its geysers and glaciers. But it is even more famous for its horses. Icelandic horses are considered the liveliest horses in the whole of Europe with the greatest stamina. They tölt over mossy banks and lava rock unfazed by rivers, glaciers and scree slopes. In Nordic mythology the steed are never far behind the warriors. Where would Siefgried be without his horse Grani, or Odin without Sleipnir. Even the sun wouldn’t rise or set if “awake early” and “very quick” weren’t pulling their chariot. From the beginning of colonisation, the Icelanders had the kind of close relationship with their horses usually only seen among the horse-riding peoples of Central Asia. And something of this love for horses still exists today. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Free Documentary is dedicated to bring high-class documentaries to you on the original video platform for free.
