Product details

On an expedition with wildlife filmmaker David Attenborough. Into the jungles of Guyana, to Borneo, along the banks of the Amazon – David Attenborough has traveled to the most remote corners of the world, always in search of rare animals. The world-famous naturalist is also a pioneer of television history: with his BBC wildlife show "Zoo Quest," he brought moving images of elephants, piranhas, and sloths into viewers' living rooms for the first time in the 1950s. In this book, he takes readers on a journey of discovery: the travel reports from his first three expeditions lead us to Africa, South America, and Asia, allowing us to share in the adventures of the documentary filmmaker and nature lover.

A biography to travel and experience with: strolls through the world's zoo. A passionate plea for environmental protection and biodiversity. A piece of television history: the first live images of exotic animals captivated TV audiences. Newly edited travel reports with exclusive photos. Exotic, fascinating, strange: wild animals up close.

Have you ever encountered a dragon? Attenborough came very close to the Komodo dragon, the largest lizard in the world. Young David also met vampires, those eerie, blood-sucking bats, whose nature he describes so empathetically that they almost seem sympathetic to us. The world has changed significantly since Attenborough's research travels. Today, zoos no longer send anyone on expeditions to distant countries to capture animals and bring them back alive. The wild and inaccessible places that could only be reached with great effort are now on well-trodden tourist routes. Attenborough's accounts not only convey fascination and a thirst for adventure, but they also evoke respect for the beauty of nature and its creatures. A unique reading experience for all nature lovers!.
