Did you also see the tree kangaroo and the giant rat?

Got any links, Gail?? I'd love to see them as well. In my opinion, Planet Earth--the BBC Series is the most amazing animal/nature footage I've ever seen. Beautiful stuff!

Thanks for posting, it was amazing.

By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1}

WOW! I know it took him forever to get that little bit of film, but I wish we could have seen them in relation to something we know the size of. I want one.:)

Found those on the BBC website. Someone in the office was looking at related stuff and I told her about the smallest parrot. That's when we found the big rat. He was so tame because he had never seen a human. They even touched it.

Try here, Aubrey. The link to the rat portion was still there on the right. You could probably search "volcano" or "tree kangaroo" for the other:

I have a lot of David Attenborough DVDs. With the development of fibreoptics and very small cameras capable of catching microscopic stuff, I have found their productions even more amazing. If you have not seen it, Life in the Undergrowth opens up new worlds of things to see.

It's absolutely amazing what they've captured in the Planet Earth series. My kids all love it, and have given each other sets as gifts.

Now, that was a big rat! (But, I've seen bigger: ROUS)

Thanks for the links, Gail!
