In the postrcript however, we discover that thanks to a fungal disease the footage of them doing so was the last ever filmed of them in the wild. One of the pleasures of an episode devoted to amphibians is the chance to see species where it's the males who look after the kids. The proud African bullfrog excavating a canal for his shoal of tadpoles before ushering them through to the big pond is wonderful. As is the poison-arrow frog giving piggybacks to his young. Neither, though, can match the devoted parenting of the mother caecilian, a wormlike creature that lives mostly underground; she feeds her writhing young on her own skin.[/FONT]

Underground cameras capture the lives of a family of badgers who inhabit a network of tunnels beneath a lush Devon valley. It's real paparazzi stuff too, showing us everything bar them falling drunk out of nightclubs – we see the badgers eating sleeping, grooming, cleaning (they are very tidy and even make their beds), wrestling and, in one hilarious sequence scratching and (boy do they love to scratch vigorously). It's lovely stuff which means it's tough to be brought up short by some stark facts – such as that nearly a quarter of all Britains badgers are killed on the country's roads in spring, when the clocks go forward and the nearly blind creatures shuffle across busy roads.[/FONT]

Underground cameras capture the lives of a family of badgers who inhabit a network of tunnels beneath a lush Devon valley. It's real paparazzi stuff too, showing us everything bar them falling drunk out of nightclubs – we see the badgers eating sleeping, grooming, cleaning (they are very tidy and even make their beds), wrestling and, in one hilarious sequence scratching and (boy do they love to scratch vigorously). It's lovely stuff which means it's tough to be brought up short by some stark facts – such as that nearly a quarter of all Britains badgers are killed on the country's roads in spring, when the clocks go forward and the nearly blind creatures shuffle across busy roads.[/FONT]
