This was the most fantastic Nature episode I have ever seen!! Lots of variety. My 10 year old calico kitty and I watch Nature every Sunday. She NEVER took her eyes off the TV for this episode. Very disappointed that no DVD is availabe for her. I love 13!!

I stumbled across this as we were studying amazing animals in my first grade classroom. I have a Smart Board so we could really enjoy the whole scene. My students would use this cue from me to return to their seats or walk to lunch in the hallway. It was great fun. Some of them got quiet good at it. I also love that music. What is it?
