What is /an/'s favourite nature documentary? For me it's Attenborough's "The Life of X" collection. I've rewatched it recently, and the thing I like about it the most is that it puts more emphasis on life's diversity and how various creatures are adapted to their environment, rather then to try to show a story or a pretty picture, which is what most documentaries do.

Last Feast of the Crocodiles. Brutal documentary about this watering hole in Africa during a drought.

Nature documentaries are all entertainment. They're all are anti-educational.

Essentially. There's just never enough depth. I'd almost rather they just narrate a Wikipedia article with footage of the related behaviors, lifestages, relative species, ect. Then after 20 or 30 or so minutes it takes to get through that call it an episode and move on. Don't try to fill it out with boring shots reciting poetry about the vastness of nature or some shit.

There's a good Youtube channel called Living Zoology. They produce some good reptile documentaries.
