What Is Attenborough’s Wonder of Song About?
The premise of Attenborough’s Wonder of Song without spoilers.
Sir David Attenborough explores his favorite natural world recordings, highlighting pivotal moments in understanding animal song. From the calls of the largest lemur to the complex songs of humpback whales and the impressive mimicry of the lyrebird, each recording was captured during his lifetime. Attenborough explains how Charles Darwin's theory of sexual selection transformed the science of animal song, revealing how singing, while risky due to predator exposure, allows males to attract females and reproduce.
