    I wish meerkats were included in this old documentary. I dont know why but I love them little critters. I've watched all seasons of meerkat manor twice now and now watching it for a 3rd time. Just finished the newest season on prime.

    If you want to learn how to build a survival shelter then this is where you should be. Animals have been doing it longer and better than humans for centuries. I've watched so many survival shelter videos and it finally hit me. What does man know about survival? We started in caves "allegedly" then moved to a civilization as soon as possible. Animals do everything best.

      I mean, most of human history we were nomadic hunter-gatherers.

      Old, old comment here. But this reminds me when I was living back home in Alaska. In Nome to be specific, my neighbor across the street was an outdoorsman and built survival shelters often. The first one I witnessed him build was out of snow. The snow was about 3 feet deep or so. He burrowed out a tunnel I'm guessing around 8-10 feet long then like a little den at the end. I thought it was the most amazing thing then. While I was a 3rd or 4th grader it was just very neat. Afterwards he let us "have" it and play in it.
      Next winter there was a huge snow pile around the same area but it was built up over a small pond. The neighborhood kids and I dug into the side at and then down. We kinda made like an igloo shaped area inside the middle bottom of this giant snow mound. We had a blast in it.
      Then one year a friend of mine and I actually built an igloo. Contrary to popular belief, igloos aren't popular nor all over in Alaska. We actually made it into the newspaper for that igloo.

    His green shirt blends in with the grass and nature so well that it's even somehow impossible not to look at.

    Hm. This was very interesting but I have to wonder how scientific it is (and I know it's meant as entertainment rather than science). A lot of the research on the sociology of wolf packs such as the idea of "alpha" and "beta" wolves has had to be pretty much thrown out because it was based on wolves in captivity where unrelated wolves were thrown together to form a pack, which isn't how wolf packs are formed in the wild, where they're family groups, and as such this tends to produce different behaviours as would actually be found in the wild.

    I love rabbit pie - it’s a great autumnal dish, time to go ferreting.

    Very entertaining, but from the standards of scientific testing that's some seriously flawed methodology.

      Yes what I don't understand is why they couldn't film in real wild burrows if they wanted to observe the most natural behaviours. The pet rabbits they chose won't have learnt proper social and survival skills from their parents, so they are going to act more like spoilt human brats who are too selfish to get along with each other. I reckon the results of their study are skewed too much towards fighting and territorial disputes than is natural. The lack of predators is also inherently unrealistic and will completely change their behaviours to be more risky and complacent. This is not how wild rabbits live, just spoilt brat rabbits.

      The voles also, are kept in an arranged marriage, so they might not have chosen the same mates in the wild. You will get biased results. The enclosures all these animals are in are tiny compared to the wilderness they normally forage in, so their physical fitness levels will be impaired and again, not having predators will make them fat, complacent and grumpy. None of these animals would last a minute in the wild.

      CorboCoNZ from what I read,domestic rabbits don’t last long in the wild and vice versa.

    Sadly these rabbit burrows are becoming fewer now, with mosques being built in them...

    it'd be interesting if they put a ferret down the rabbit warren.
