David Attenborough should stick to educating us about animals rather than bashing human beings.
It’s that high-pitched, cranky and creaky voice again. It’s the most fabulous footage of wildlife, taken by intrepid photographers on very cold ships. We see emperor penguins waddling, sliding on their bellies, tobogganing and mountaineering through acres of Antarctic snow. A young male hooded seal, out to mate in the spring, sees off an older and bigger rival. Then he tries to pull a female – first with an inflatable black nose, then with an inflatable, balloon-like red sack in his left nostril.
