Today, I finally finished watching the first season of Earth Pulse. There were times when I was attracted to watch episode after episode, and there were times when I tried to force me to watch it myself. Anyway, after I finished watching it and saw the last episode of Blue Whale, this documentary finally broke through the skylight and said something bright.
After reading it, I remember a lot and forget a lot. I didn't watch it for popular science, I just wanted to see nature, to see the existence of "Wow".
It is not easy for animals and plants to survive in a harsh environment. The plants are okay. The animals are ugly, and they are not edible. What a pity, I also admire living in such a harsh environment. In short, everything in nature has a certain number, and they all live in a system. No matter how they will survive, the premise is that there is no human "intervention".
Compared to herbivores, carnivores are really pitiful. There are many herbivores, and their food is generally a lot. Although it is also affected by seasons, the impact of seasons on herbivores is much smaller than that on carnivores. Looking at the pitiful carnivores, the narrator always said things like "if they can't catch food, they will starve to death", which is really a little distressing, and it is a great honor to think that humans are omnivores.
In the whole first season, I liked the episode of Danshui the most. Looking at the fish in the freshwater, it was so beautiful. It was colorful, and the water was also a light blue, very shallow. If I get a chance, I must see it with my own eyes. I've always liked watching marine life more than land animals, probably because I don't have gills... So I always thought it was a very, very, very magical thing to be able to breathe underwater.
There are several impressive images inside.
One is that elephants are eaten, because elephants are always sacred, and I feel that they are the gods of herbivores. Because of their huge physique, even carnivores have to shy away from them, so the episode where elephants are eaten is really a little bit. Shock. The second is that seals eat penguins. I always thought that nothing is eating penguins. In fact, this is impossible, but when I saw the seals directly bite the penguin's neck and broke it, I was stunned. The third is that the narrator explained that chimpanzees eat their own kind. My god, I didn’t react to eating the same kind at the time, but when I heard the narrator say that they may have no purpose in eating their own kind, and that humans are close relatives of chimpanzees, I really felt a chill behind me, and nature is often the most terrifying.
The whole drama shocked me not only with the terrifying pictures above, but also with a lot of beautiful scenery. The pictures are not even a little bit beautiful. Some of them made me want to suffer from intense phobias, and some of them made me vomit after eating, but This is nature, there are large animals, there are small insects, there are beautiful animals, and there are ugly ones. It is all these combined to form a diverse and unified nature.
What has given me a new understanding is the sun, the seasons and the grass. For the first time, I learned that sunlight is so important to living things. It seems that there is life without sunlight. Where there is sunlight, both animals and plants are beautiful and vibrant. Where there is no sunlight, the eyes of animals may degenerate. This is the first time I know that seasons have such a great impact on the lives of animals, especially carnivores. I like winter the most and dislike summer. It may be the best proof of the progress of human society, because no animal will like it. Winter hates summer. Grass, a lot, very easy to live, very selfless, I can't imagine what nature would be like without the existence of grass.
After watching this kind of documentary, it is inevitable that I will feel that I have raised a grade, and I will more or less gain some knowledge. At least I will check the difference between orangutans, baboons, monkeys, and apes, and I will check dolphins, fur seals, and seals. The difference between , sea lions, and walruses, will check whether crabs are scavengers... I am very happy that someone can make such a documentary, so that each of us has the opportunity to see those things that we may never see with our own eyes in our life. s things.
Maybe this documentary is aimed at calling for the protection of nature, but after watching it, my bigger feeling is: nature is so wonderful, why don't I go and see it?
