Breathtaking series, excellent value
Epic, landmark, stunning: there aren't enough superlatives for these wildlife series. They are, very simply, the ultimate. If you, your family, or your children are interested in the natural world -- and we all should be so interested -- then these 17 discs are a dream come true: over 33 hours of the most awe-inspiring yet intimate views of the animals that occupy our earth, seas, and skies, together with amazing facts about their lives, habitats, and diversity.
The four series were photographed by hundreds of cameramen who spanned the globe for more than a decade to uncover the stories of every type of life, from the very small to the enormous, and narrated by David Attenborough, one of the world's foremost naturalists and filmmakers. This bargain-priced compact set is the way to go, for after seeing one of these incredibly beautiful series, you will want them all.

Absolutely AWESOME!
I purchased this item when it was a Gold Box Deal of the Day for $69.99. What a deal this truly is. In my personal opinion any DVD that is narrated by David Attenborough is just AWESOME! This 17 disc set has some of the most facinating pictures and information regarding birds, mammals, oceans, jungles, forests, and many others. The DVD's are very educational, if you have kids they should absolutely love these DVD's. We love to watch DVD Box Sets that are about nature and animals. I am so glad that I purchased this item, as it shows so many pictures and areas that I have never visited or seen before. It is an enlighten show for the whole family. You will not be disappointed by purchasing this item. It is truly spectacular.
10 stars not merely 5
Thanks to the upconverting of my LG blu-ray player I viewed this series in almost HD quality. I bought this on a gold box deal for a little over 4 per disc. I think this is one of the best of the many incredible deals I've purchased at Amazon over the years. The entire series is so visually stunning and its bonus is it being highly educational. I think everyone should view it at least once either as a special on TV or rent it from Netflix. After watching the set it made me more convicted to environmental stewardship. My favorite of the series was Life of Mammals only due to the topic. Next was the Blue Planet and I also purchased this as a stand alone set for a friend. Truly this series has something for everyone and may pique your interest in a subject you previously had no interest. I don't see how anyone would be disappointed in this breathtaking series. Enjoy.
