This is a first class video. It is amazing how far film technology has come since those early days of 'Life on Earth'. There are two fascinating films here. The first concerns chimps in the Tai forest in the Ivory Coast. Some of the findings have been presented by Attenborough elsewhere, notably in the 'Trials of Life', but they are explored at greater length here. You get a real insight into the aggressive world of chimps. Since Scientists have started following this particular chimp community its numbers have halved (presumably because the Scientists' presence made the chimps less wary of poachers). The second film focuses on an Orang Utang and her baby in the Asian Rain forest. This is the first film to present Orangs in the wild. You get a glimpse of their mainly solitary lives but also their occasional social interactions. I would strongly recommend this video. The superb camerawork is accompanied by Attenborough's brilliant commentary. Well worth it.
