Finally saw the Shallow Seas episode. That great white footage was mesmerizing. And the time lapse starfish/polyp shots were incredible. Like something straight out of Harryhausen's creature shop.
The whole series has me thinking about how many animals risk their own lives to care for their young. It's a lot. Whether it's by pure instinct or a higher sense of awareness doesn't even matter, there seems to be a clear dividing line in the animal world between animals that do care for their young beyond conception and gestation at risk of their own well being and those that don't. It's an undeniably powerful evolutionary force.
