"Off the beaten track, random and interesting", I have a strange fascination with mega fauna, the normally forgotten category of animals that came after the dinosaurs and before the rise of humans. Most people would know of the woolly mammoth, but not the giant sloth or the elephant bird. These animals catch my attention because of their resemblance to present day animals and their uniquely large size. I also love random facts, such as the speed of ketchup or how the sewer system was made in the US. This series marries my two loves and succeeds wildly.

This series captures the excitement of these random animals and time periods that aren't hugely popular like the dinosaurs. The each episode was a mini story, making it more interesting than a straight documentary. In addition, each episode touched on time periods, animals and facts you might never had thought about. Like huge carnivorous whales the size of a blue whale, or gigantic birds that looked like ostriches on steroids. I loved the new ideas that the series brought to my attention. Random and interesting. Off the beaten track. Just the way I like it.


"Highly Entertaining!", Good followup to all the dinosaur shows in this series! We greatly enjoyed it after the caveman fiasco (read previous reviews to know what I'm talking about). Good animation, animals look real, narration fits well with the visuals, my kids loved it & watched it more than once. The only complaint is that the human segmant at the end is kind of dumb and none of us liked it as much as the other segments.

"great set", the computer graphics make these animals from earths past come to life. many people are aware of dinosaurs and their history on this earth but what about other creatures? this dvd goes into that.

very good and suitable for both children and adults

"Lawrence Hakiwai", Great series, now on high-rotate at our house along with Walking with Monsters and Walking with Dinosaurs. Now if the BBC could only produce Walking with Five-Year-Olds Who Can Pick Up Their Own Toys!

"A DVD that is as entertaining as it is educational", We have this as part of the Complete Walking With Dinosaurs Collection, which I would highly recommend as well. Kenneth Branagh's narration really adds to the show. Our family loves seeing the CGI renderings while learning about ancient creatures. The series is well organized and easy to follow, even our preschooler is enthralled and can follow each episode. I think the way the topics are presented really helps encourage an interest in science and a love of learning in both adults and children. I probably should say, it's a nature show - so there is what I would call "nature violence" - like prey being caught by a predator, but I personally don't find it objectionable.

"very good with only one concern...", My two sons really enjoyed the "walking with.." series. The documentary style approach combined with excellent cgi was very enjoyable and educational to watch. My wife and I also enjoyed watching it with the kids so thats another plus. In addition, the shows are broken down into ~20 minutes segments so the dvd's can be watched in parts on multiple occasions.
The only main concern I had was the scenes in each segment where the directors found it necessary to recreate scenes of each of the animals reproducing (I'm sure the cgi guys had fun making various prehistoric animals mount each other and am sure there's a very interesting blooper real out there somewhere...). I realize it occurs in nature, but thats something not usually shown in Mutual of Omaha's wild kingdom or the Crocodile hunter...

"Very good DVD for a low price", I saw this piece on the discovery channel and was intrigued enough to want to have a copy. The documentary is very well done and interesting, although the animation looks a little more obvious than "Walking with Dinosaurs". For the low price, it's a great educational DVD for the kids, plus fun enough for adults, too!

"Walking with Beasts is the best!", Walking with Beasts is the same as walking with dinosaurs. It has 6 episodes (New Dawn, Whale Killer, Land of Giants, Next of Kin, Sabre Tooth, and Mammoth Journey) and the Triumph of the Beasts. The best in my opinion is Next of Kin. It is a dramatic story of a group of Australopithecus. You know this product is good. If you don't buy it, you're really missing something!

"very pleased", My son initially saw this on the discovery channel and loved it. I purchased it not realizing it was a whole series of shows so I was even happier. My six year old has his favorite shows on the dvd which I think are a wonderful alternative to the cartoons that are so readily available.

"really really good", I had been looking for a resource on prehistoric mammals and this was perfect. Also, there were times where it showed early man throwing stones, and one breaks the camera, making it seem much more real.the narration was good and they weren't afraid to show animals doing bodily functions (they did censor the apes). Also, one reviewer seemed to be saying that they didn't like the first humans depicted as apes, but that was my family's favorite part.
