Parola chiave Insects

Un'ora e un quarto su un pianeta sconosciuto: la Terra riscoperta su scala di un centimetro. I suoi abitanti: creature fantastiche, insetti ed altri esseri viventi in mezzo all'erba e nell'acqua. La sua campagna: una foresta impenetrabile di ciuffi d'erba, gocce di rugiada grosse come palloni. Questa è l'esplorazione di un nuovo mondo, un semplice prato, durante un giorno d'estate: un giorno, una notte e l'alba di un secondo giorno. Un singolo giorno è paragonabile a un'intera stagione in questo microcosmo. Un intero periodo di vita dove, come per gli insetti, l'arco di una vita si misura in settimane.

Una missione di salvataggio diventa minacciosa quando una banda di soldati alleati combatte contro orribili esperimenti creati dai nazisti.

David Attenborough e lo scienziato Johan Rockström analizzano il collasso della biodiversità sulla Terra e in che modo questa crisi possa ancora essere evitata.

Uno scienziato studia animali, soprattutto insetti: mette a confronto il loro comportamento e quello dell'uomo, un confronto dal quale l'uomo può apprendere molto. Ma l'insetto costituisce pure un pericolo per la sopravvivenza dell'uomo. Da qui la necessità per gli uomini di amministrarsi meglio.

A four-part global investigation into insect declines, exploring their diversity and their critical roles on the planet. Scientists reveal the beauty of bugs, from pollinators to insect assassins to the tiny clean-up crews that purify the planet.

Hannah Fry takes a spectacular look at the science of size by imagining a parallel world in which everything is made bigger or smaller.

This story is about Mick, a sleeping chironomid. Insects are taken up into space for use in experiments by humans. An epic space adventure of Mick and his friends of their journey back home to Earth. The development plans and experiments are aborted by humans for no known reason, the organisms are left behind in the space station with limited resources. Going over hurdles and fighting through challenges, together, they travel across planets and gain new comrades, heading for Earth. As their journey progresses, the mystery behind the human’s abandonment unravels…

Camouflage, deception and deadly precision: insects arrive with surprising survival strategies and thus take their place in the animal world. From bomb-igniting beetles, web-throwing spiders to tricky antlions – worldwide, the insect world has developed amazing abilities to protect itself from attackers and obtain food.

Creepy Crawlies was a stop motion animation series created by Cosgrove Hall. The series consisted of 52 ten-minute episodes, which were broadcast on Children's ITV between 1987 and 1989. All episodes were written by Peter Reeves and directed by Franc Vose and Brian Little; narration and character voices were provided by Paul Nicholas. The series was based upon the daily goings-on of a group of common invertebrate creatures that lived at the bottom of a garden around an old sundial. And so another bright new day dawns upon the home of the Creepy Crawlies, Mr Harrison the snooty snail, Suppose the lowly red-nosed worm, Ariadne the spider, the irksome woodlouse-come-pill-bug called Anorak, meek Ladybird, Lambeth the brawny-but-brainless beetle and Ancient the aged caterpillar dwell right down at the bottom of the garden, near the shed, on and around an old broken sundial. Classic Cosgrove Hall stop-motion animation.
