Moors and peatlands are oases in the cultivated landscape of Central Europe. Nature holds many surprises in a moor: It seems as if some of the most bizarre and colourful members of our native species live in the bog. Plants that eat animals live here and mushrooms that suck the live out of plants. The rutting dance of the Great snipes and the hatching of a great crane chick are just a few of the miracles happening in a moor every season. Today- the European Union is runner-up world champion in setting free hazardous greenhouse gases through the destruction of moors and bogs. The film shows the biodiversity of the often rarely recognized habitat - and it is a quiet appeal: SAVE and PRESERVE the last intact MOORS!
This is the first documentary I have ever seen on a moor -- truly spectacular ecosystems and needs much higher levels of protection and recognition.
I've been watching nature documentary's for the better part of 40 years, first time I've seen one on the moors. Nature continues to amaze me
exactly my experience too
BECAUSE this must exist or there would be no human beings.....you are watching the past when you observe nature....though...99.9% of it is long gone.....the brain still tries to sort it all out...
So beautifully diverse and fragile and heartbreaking that these paradises for life's creatures are being systematically destroyed 😥😥
I’ve only got 25 years in but same never heard of it but nonetheless amazing.
Yes, Creation is truly wonderous, All thanks to Jesus Christ, our wonderful creator !
This is the first documentary that I’ve seen to really show the beauty of the moors, and to show more about those in mainland Europe.
I like how this documentary periodically makes use of music and close-up time-lapse to make it look like a creepy, sinister, faerie land.
That’s natural music no edits
Amazing photography! Best documentary on wetlands I've seen yet! Well done!
What a pleasant surprise. It is no small feat to collect the amount of footage it takes to complete a production of this quality, not to mention adding script, narration and music that does it justice. Congratulations on a job incredibly well done.
I just need you to know that the vast majority of "nature" shots are done in a studio and not in the wild. Especially smaller creatures. It's way too hard to try and catch that perfect moment in the wild. But create a set throw in some animals and you have all the footage you need in a few days.
@@chrish4439 haha I just imagine annnnd CUT! …damn that mating scene got me all worked up sorry! Let’s make them try that again
@@chrish4439 and I just find it hard to believe a production crew would have better luck in getting or renting a harvest mouse for a particular scene than just go out in the field and capture whatever happens naturally. Then write the script for the narrator accordingly.
When I first moved to South Carolina the first place I lived was on 7 acres in the foothills of the Cherokee national forest. Found a lone pitcher plant growing in the woods. Absolutely magical.
Amazing I only see pitcher plants in the Botanical Gardens in Edinburgh. Must've been a sight to behold..... 😊
@Confused Confucius nope. Left it alone
Greetings from Asheville. We used to have them when I was a kid, I'm 61 years old. Bless you for noticing and caring about that! So many things are gone now that I remember seeing commonly in the 60s and 70s - lady slippers, Indian Peace Pipe and so much more. I envy you in a good way getting to live at the foothills of that precious forest! ❤
❤WoW....what a magical gift to be able to watch❤
There are Sundews and Pitcher Plants growing in the bogs of the Northeastern US, namely Long Island, NY.
You have me at “carnivorous plants interspersed among the mats of moss unfurled from winter buds in spring”. That was some AWESOME camera work
This documentary is a work of art itself. Thank you for the very high quality of the music and of course, the extremely impressive photography. The English narration is informative and charming as well. I plan to share this with others here in the USA. Thank you for the sensitivity and creativity in portraying a little known ecosystem.
This is undoubtedly the most incredible filming of nature I've ever seen. It's so sad when areas like this are destroyed by mankind's ongoing expansion and greed throughout the world.
No denying , we are all to blame 😥
greed has no boundaries in todays world it is a disgrace
If it were only that simple...
Lol! Nevermind your greed right?
@@dherman0001 in the drivel of your mind that helps you compose your posting did it ever occur to you that I was merely paraphrasing the message of the video. You know nothing of me whatsoever. Thus, a personal attack on me deserves nothing more than the same. From your rebuff though, I assume you have a guilty conscience .
What an awesome documentary! The cinematography was absolutely top notch! I grew up near swampland surrounded by forest, up in the mountains of Vermont. I was always amazed at the sheer amount of biodiversity of the area, and marveled at how many different ecosystems meshed together to create some of the most fertile and vibrant natural habitats. I will always cherish the fact that I got to grow up in a place so teaming with life! Wetlands in their various forms are just incredible!
I'm in East Central Ohio and the swamp/Bogs remind me of the Moors. Awesome areas.
@@kachi9293I'll have a second one, just for you.
This documentary was not only super informative but beautifully shot. The wonders of nature is so magnificent
Thank you..there's still so much beauty & wonder on our spinning blue marble.💚🌏🤸♀️
Whoever helped produce this documentary should be very proud of themselves. I rarely ever see a documentary capable of rivalling those produced by the BBC. The ants and carnivorous plants parts were my favourite.
I SWEAR THIS OLD MAN VOICE MAKES THE WHOLE VIDEO MUCH BETTER ❤
Such a beautiful and important part of nature. I truly hope that everyone sees the importance of the moors and halts their destruction. We must protect protect these areas, not destroy them.
Thanks!! Not only learned so many things from this documentary film but this film is created so enchantingly and poetically beautiful!!!
This was an exceptionally beautiful video and I'm so grateful and thankful that I found it and watched it!
Hi 👋how are you doing?
The footage in this video is absolutely ridiculous. Outstanding. I am VERY impressed by this.
34:00
🎉😂
The power and patience that exists in the use of time lapse photography never fails to amaze and enthrall me and my grandees.Many thanks to all who are involved in the production of these beautiful videos! Best Regards, J.I.M.K Mrs. Brisbane, Australia 🇦🇺 ❤ ♥ 😊
The photographic images are breathtaking. What a pleasure to watch. Thank you.
Awesome. Beautiful. Thank you so much ✨
Thank you for this beautiful documentary on the moors. I have passed it on to my gardener friends so as to cease using peat. One can easily switch to coconut coir.
The unfortunate thing with coco coir is that it takes a lot of water to produce and then pollutes the waters of the places that produce it - namely India. Since it pollutes and is produced in a third world country, you're doing harm using it as well to the people who live there and the nature dependent upon those waters. I have many, many houseplants and am working to find better alternatives to both. Unfortunately, the quality we are looking for in peat and coir come from so few other places.
Peat moss, if harvested with sustainability in mind, regenerates very quickly in natural settings. Look into sustainable brands, such as some from New Zealand.
@@HomeSlice97 Peat moss and sphagnum is the same right? Can't they just grow and harvest it rather than "mine" them?
@@HomeSlice97 We would dig peat out of the bogs of eastern Long Island, NY. By the end of summer it would’ve all grown back, even thicker.
I love seeing spots that look like where I'm from, but are thousands of miles away. Hello from the boreal forest in Manitoba, canada
Well done to camera people who captured all these hidden secrets! Brilliant!
This was absolutely stunning, it felt like Gollum was gonna pop out any minute and ask for his precious.
The intimacy I feel through this photography with each animal and I can't help but see the same window to a being in their eyes as any human I would see for the first time.
A fascinating documentary! It was lovely to watch. Hats off to the sound designer and the composers for making it even more enjoyable!
The footage, the music, it's amazing,
someone in my painting class choose a moor out of a nature magazine for their scenery painting and I remember wondering what it was, thank you this is fascinating!
Awesome Nature documentary Best offf the besttttttt 😘😘😘🥰🥰🥰
That was beautiful to watch his voice matched the tone of the film soothing and gentle. Also the singing was not too invasive and really went well with the film. So sad to see the loss of the wet lands that have took centuries to grow why can’t man leave nature alone. Greed that’s why we are given thus beauty for free we must defend it thank you fir an enjoyable film 🎥
I love this documentary, it's beautifully made!
I absolutely love this . It's like a movie
Many precious moments captured, and explained. Thank you very much for sharing the wonderful nature!
What an awesome documentary. Stunningly beautiful.
Wow, what a great God!!! Look at that beauty!
You’re right look how great our God is, you’re the only one that gave praise to the one who made the wet lands
Thank you kindly---- i love to enjoy these!!!❤
Fascinating documentary. Not many moors where I am, so I learned a lot. Thanks.
Beautiful and informative on a subject we hear so little about, and know even less. Thank you for this eye opener. I loved it, and hope to see more of the same caliber ! ♥️ 🕊️ 🇨🇦
This is a great documentary. The moor is a fascinating environment with much interesting life. Hopefully, we can preserve what we have--for their sake and ours. Thank you so much for uploading!
@@kachi9293 Deal--if you' learn to spell. I'm not vegetarian btw.
@@kachi9293 Whatever.
This was a spectacular video, perfect for getting through the heatwave going on here today in eastern Washington. Thank you for your wonderful channel!
Western Wa too! I’m sweltering on the edge of the cascade foothills.
Here in Riverside, outside of Omak. Super hot!!!
Wow, impressed with the production value here!!
33:10 such magnificent sound editing. XD
Wow so beautiful. Never seen anything on the moors. I've watched documentaries on nature since I was a kid 40 years. This is so beautifully filmed and informative as well as entertaining.
Very good video, worth seeing over and over.
One of the best documentaries I ever seen! Love from Miami-Dade!
This show was great. Never knew much about the moors before this. Especially loved the music. Very well done.
You are the absolute best Documentary team I have ever had the pleasure of watching your great product. Thanks 😊
Such a lovely documentary, the care and consideration to encompass explanation of the relationship to the land, plants and animals. Thank you.
Fantastic. Here in Virginia, US, we have the Dismal Swamp, very similar to these moors. Maybe a subject for your fine team.
What a pleasure to watch. 😊❤❤❤ I am in the hospital all on my own. This brought me joy. Thank you for the wonderful video.
amazing documentary + amazing background music
I've learned so much from all these documentaries...I love how the camera man/women gets these beautiful shots...Everything about this channel is amazing 👏❤...keep them coming...from ky hello..7- 23-22♡♡♡♡♡
Despite the fact that I adore these nature docs I was taken back to my childhood when I was deathly afraid of spiders (and still am) and wouldn’t walk through a field of grass because of it (and still won’t). Upon seeing that field in the morning sun that highlighted all those spiderwebs my damn anxiety shot through the roof! However, I still feel blessed to be given this amazing gift of being able to vie these wonderful documentaries for free on KZhead. How in the world they can afford to do this is beyond me.
I gave never seen a documentary on the moorlands before. Truly impressive. And equally the horror of its destruction is jaw dropping.
Wonderful - and such excellent pleasant narration
Whenever I hear the term “ beware the moors” I’m taken back to the eventful night my friends and I ventured to our small town drive in movie theatre to see “An American Werewolf in London”. The boys leave the Slaughtered Lamb and are told to beware the moors. Well … we all know where that leads … right to this moor-ish video! I’ve never wandered the moors but glad I didn’t!
I thought it the most shocking and funny movie I'd Ever seen - "you have to kill yourself David !" 😳😄
@@chateaupig826 American Werewolf is my all-time favourite movie! Saw it with friends at a drive in. Driving home on a Northern Canadian “bush road”, a shortcut gravel road common in remote areas. Surrounded by trees, no lights, no other cars, sounds of gravel crunching under the tires, thinking about the movie I’d just seen, “David” got into my head! I nearly flew down that road until I could see the lights of my little town.
I just watched it again , managed to find it on a streaming channel , the CGI is woefully dated but that was as far as they got up till then and back then it was like "wow" You can see how many movies got the inspiration from it going forward not to mention the Michael Jackson video ,Thriller 👍
Magnificent moors. Such wonderful treasures we have and ignore all too often in our preference for urbanised living. Totally unsustainable lifestyle!!
Yeah well, I guess you missed the part of the video when they quietly slipped-in the truth that it is environmentalists creating "biomass farmland" that are destroying European moors. They did this quietly, well after their video's opening statement, a very flamboyant chastising and blame of the evil climate change deniers for this destruction. It was a pretty slick bait-switch, but if you paid attention you'd hear it.
Corporate welfare Kill the monarchy seize your land back
Mother Nature is Fantastic🙏😊✌
Wow. This one is so good. I almost left midway, but it caught be attention (and wonder) once more and I couldn't hep but me glued to my computer screen. Beautiful documentary! Thank you for posting this.
What Breathtaking Beauty Mother Nature Beholds🙏😊❤✌
The moor I watched this video, the moor I liked it. Top notch photography!
We need moor documentaries like this
LOL...yes, I agree with you!👍 We definitely need MORE moor documentaries of this quality 👌
4k fantasmic videography!
Brilliant! Most interesting and enjoyable; thank you.
Anyone who enjoyed this video might enjoy sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Hounds of the Baskerville’s featuring Sherlock Holmes the setting on a moor in England. if you don’t feel like reading the book go to KZhead look up the movie. Reportedly the best version is from 1939 the one starring Basil Rathbone to which I concur. There are several more recent versions as well for those who don’t care for black and white movies
Wonderful work.. what an achievement, really this is the best documentary i have watched so far. Congratulations,and thank you.
what incredible and arttist footage! this documentary was an artistic masterpiece
Wowwwww No documentary matches this kind of Unique and honestly Impressive 👏👏👏👏👏🍀🌼❄️
All I can say is: Epic. Loved the journey through the lifes of everything with the point of life to target in the end.
That snake almost gave me a heart attack! But, I will continue to watch it. Looks good.
Beautiful documentary 👏❤! Thank you!
It feels like half the nature documentaries on this channel are about places in Germany, but I really enjoyed this one especially! It was nice learning about an ecosystem I largely knew nothing about.
A wonderful documentary and some stunning photography. Top draw.
I hope this habitats gets preserved it would be so tragic if this gets destroyed too TT
Thank you for beautiful film
The music and sound effects are superb 👌
High quality documentary indeed. Loved it! Reminded me of the old wildlife documentaries in Discovery I used to watch back when I was a kid. They just don't make many documentaries like this anymore.
I think you better delete your comment
Why?
Cranes sound like a trumpet 🎺 or a saxophone 🎷! That’s wild, always comes back to Nature huh
I love these videos. Being a poor old disabled holy woman I am very thankful for all the knowledge you share with me. Peace.
31:07 got me good with that sound effect xD I love playing documentaries while working on design projects, but sometimes they surprise me with comical gems such as these. Thank you for keeping education lighthearted. xD
Outstanding and exceptionally beautiful video! The time-lapse footage takes a lot of skills and patience.
Truly magical, thank you!
09:21 Ah yes. That infernal "glogging" sound. Curse you glogging. Why do you torture me so!
Fascinating. Thank you.
Wow, this was one very good nature documentary. I truly enjoyed it, and I know everyone else also enjoyed it as well.
good day my friend i allways watching your content
The best documentary I've seen ever ❤
Incredible video! A year round of life at an area practically unaccessible to people. My favourite is peat moss with spores in a form of capsules with 5 bars pressure (the same as pressure in lorry tyres) 🤯 Mind boggling!! 🌱 Nature has endless miracles hidden for us to discover in amazement. Thank you for sharing 🐛
Excellent Documentary..I just learned 👍 Thankyou for this
Stunning cinematography!
You guys never dissapoint
So interesting for nature lover and environmentalist💙
Thankyou for showing us. Very interesting documentary.
It's so remote and beautiful. How on earth have they filmed this?
with cameras
It is three busstops from citylimits, it is not remote
This is truly fascinating! I watched it twice.
Very well done! Thank you!
For those based in the U.K I recommend a visit to the Moorland Visitor Centre, Princetown, Dartmoor.
Very awesome. I'd love to see a longer series on this topic.
Truly wonderous! Such beauty!
