LIFE!!

Every sunday night my husband and I watch the Discovery channel series, LIFE. The epic television series LIFE is the definitive exploration of our planet's living things and their spectacular, bizarre and fascinating behaviors. LIFE spans every coninent and every habitat. Each episode focuses on a different animal or plant group. From strange creatures, such as the star-nosed mole that hunts underwater using bubbles to smell its prey, to grand spectacles, like millions of fruit bats darkening the Zambian sky, each episode tells mind-blowing stories of survival with drama, humor and suspense.The earth is home to more than 30 million different animals and plants, every single one fighting to survive, and LIFE gives an up close and personal look at how some of these creatures do so. It's better than any other animal show I've ever seen and I highly recommend it to everyone!!

  1. I have never seen the LIFE series. Sunday night for me is always English--Masterpiece Theater-- and Antiques Roadshow.

    Good work! A couple of difficult vocabulary words-- Can you come up with a simpler definition for bizarre?
