From deserts to grasslands, from the African hinterland to the coast of Cape Town, life stubbornly survives in its own way. In the arid and hot Sahara Desert, silver ants have only ten minutes to go out to forage, otherwise they will die due to the high temperature, and they survived under such harsh conditions. Seeing this, I can't help but be in awe of these little lives. Life does not distinguish between high and low, and every species today is the winner of natural selection that has gone through hundreds of millions of years. In this way, what kind of arrogance does human beings have?
At the same time, natural disasters caused by human activities and the invasion of wildlife habitats, poaching, and long-term civil wars have put the ecology of the ancient African continent at risk. The last episode also mentioned that Europe and China are deforesting wildly in Africa. 50% of Congo’s forests are actually classified as deforestation. The contradiction between economic interests and ecological protection seems to always be an unavoidable problem in the process of national development.
I really like a sentence in the film: "Every individual animal is part of a much bigger story", every animal is part of a larger ecosystem, and through the influence of large areas of tropical rainforests in distant Africa on the global climate, we ourselves are also linked to this ancient continent. Everyone is responsible.
