Description

The divers and manifold flower meadow – a paradise, a hotspot of biodiversity right in front of our doorstep! „The Meadow – Paradise Lost?“ is an exploration of this colourful habitat. The Meadow: A sea of colours, bright and variform almost like a coral reef or the tropical rainforest. How come this habitat only exists, if it is destroyed regularely? Why do so many creatures make their home in a meadow that is cut down by machines twice a year? Can´t we just leave the meadows alone, let them grow, stop cutting them? This film answers all these questions and the film talks about the drastic decline in divers meadows all over the world. Modern agriculture has brought this habitat close to extinction. ------- Chapters ▷ 00:00 - Introduction ▷ 00:25 - Medieval Meadows - Birth of a Wildlife Haven ▷ 01:06 - Life on the Ground - Curlews, Peewits & Hidden Nests ▷ 02:12 - Why Are Meadow Birds Vanishing? ▷ 03:01 - Skylark Magic - Spring Songs Above the Meadow ▷ 04:39 - Predators of the Grassland - Eagles, Foxes & Survival ▷ 06:26 - Between Forest and Pasture - Roe Deer in Spring ▷ 07:06 - The Miracle of Roe Deer Birth ▷ 09:02 - Forest Nursery - New Life in the Shadows ▷ 11:03 - Meadow Flowers - Salsify, Orchids & Ancient Plants ▷ 12:22 - Orchid Tickery - Bees, Mimics & Pollination ▷ 13:29 - Hidden Worlds - Spittlebugs, Foam Nests & Meadow Insects ▷ 14:41 - Roe Deer Fawns - Hidden in the Grass ▷ 15:42 - Modern Farming - Machines, Meadows & Mortality ▷ 17:33 - Storm Rescue - Nature Saves the Meadow ▷ 19:18 - Skylark Parenting - Stealth Flights & Hungry Chicks ▷ 20:00 - Grasshopper Orchestra - The Sound of Summer ▷ 23:39 - Grazing Meadows - Livestock and Biodiversity ▷ 25:06 - Fox Family - Hunting Lessons in the Pasture ▷ 26:33 - Ungerground Neighbours - Solitary Bees & Bee Flies ▷ 29:27 - Cicadas & Meadow Life - Survival on the Stems ▷ 30:58 - Summer Grows On - Fawns, Whinchats & Threatened Birds ▷ 32:20 - Hay Harvest - Machines vs. Meadow Wildlife ▷ 34:28 - After the Mower - Survivors & Near Misses ▷ 36:31 - A Vanishing Landscape - Meadows Lost to Farming ▷ 37:26 - Can We Save Europe's Last Wild Meadows? ▷ 39:10 - Meadow Nights - Roe Deer Courtship & Marsh Angelica ▷ 41:03 - Waxcap Worlds - Rare Meadow Fungi ▷ 42:26 - Winter Takes Its Toll - Scavengers Survive ▷ 43:53 - Spring Returns - A Fragile New Beginning ▷ 46:21 - Manure & Meadow Death - A Biodiversity Crisis ▷ 48:25 - Dandelion Takeover - The Last Flower Standing ▷ 49:11 - A Paradise Lost... or Still Worth Saving? ▷ 49:47 - Credits #documentary #animals #wildlife #nature #meadow #grassland #pastureland #biodiversity #ecosystem #animalbehavior #animalplanet ------- Subscribe to wocomoWILDLIFE: https://goo.gl/L5puvQ Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wocomo ------- Original title: The Meadow - Paradise Lost?
