This, is the first of the programs on the environment to commemorate world environment day. It is headed up by a “Did you know” segment, which comprises of dynamic attention grabbing and sometimes even humorous environmental information geared to entertain and educate. The remainder of the program is made up of a documentary section. This program focuses on the loggerhead and leatherback turtles of Maputoland. These huge ocean-living, air breathing reptiles beach themselves annually on the Maputoland Coast to lay their eggs. Genetically, the turtles are almost identical to those living 100 million years ago, hence their prehistoric appearance. This award winning, awe inspiring, documentary series deals with all things African. We look at the fascinating diversity and lives of the African wildlife…. from the lush rainforests, to the arid desert sands to the vast oceans surrounding the continent. We also explore the rich diversity of cultures and traditions of the various peoples and regions of this magical land;and, investigate the fragile African environments and man’s interaction with her delicate ecosystems. Each program is headed up by a "Did you know" segment: an entertaining, even humorous, short subject followed by a fascinating feature story. Your whole family will enjoy this visual experience.
