  Saw a documentary once where a big cat took out a fucking gator. Shit was wild

    I’m too skeptical of these documentaries. I always assume there’s some shenanigans to make the crazy footage happen.

      That’s why the Attenborough ones are great, they usually have ten minutes at the end where they do a bit of behind-the-scenes and you hear the crew talking about how they had to camp out in the jungle for six months or something ridiculous just to get one shot of a particularly elusive animal. They’re always so excited when they finally get it!

      A lot of it is just months in the field to get that one shot. Maybe even years.

      Though the Disney Alaska documentary…. With the running of the lemmings (white wilderness).

      The scene where the lemmings were supposedly committing mass suicide? Yeah. They were flinging them off a turntable- like the kind used to spread fertilizer or salt.

      Well. It did inspire a classic video game. But yeah. Lemmings do run- they just hop down, no suicide.

  There’s always a bigger predator.
