Yellowstone: Battle For Life | DVD Review

Yellowstone is no ordinary wilderness, it is the world’s first national park: a lost world of vast plains and endless forests defended on all sides by towering mountains, home to America’s last great bison herds, the grizzly bear and realm of the wolf. It is the most extensive thermal area on earth with more than 10,000 boiling springs, fumaroles and bubbling mud pits and more geysers than the rest of the world put together. It is these strange natural wonders that first made Yellowstone famous and still make it unique today. This landmark series reveals the grandeur of this unique place as its animals struggle to survive over the course of the vividly changing seasons.

Join the charismatic cast of Yellowstone’s wildlife as they face the extreme challenges of the seasons and discover just what it takes to brave temperatures 40 degrees below zero, to live through raging forest fires or to fight to the death for the right to breed. The daily struggles of the wildlife are intimately linked to Yellowstone’s greatest secret: that sleeping right beneath the snow is probably the world’s largest volcano. The fate of everything in this extraordinary wilderness is in the hands of forces more powerful than we can possibly imagine.

My family loves nature shows and this one is right at the top. Yellowstone is a great point of interest for us and we love learning all about the surrounding areas, especially the fact that there is a volcano under much of the area. Watching how animals fend for themselves is amazing to watch as they move and hunt to survive. My daughters favorite are the grizzly bears and my son loves the bison. We really learned a lot watching this show and I recommend it to everyone. Great learning experience.
