VHS Movie Reviews of National Geographic's The Grizzlies [VHS]
Movie Review: Excellent overview of the grizzly bear & associated issues
Summary: 4 Stars
National Geographic once again does a fantastic job presenting a controversial subject with an objective eye. NGS crews take us to Alaska and elsewhere to show us up-close and very intimate views of this often-misunderstood predator. There is excellent footage of many types of grizzly behavior, a very good historical overview, anecdotes from grizzly attack survivors, a large portion about bears within Yellowstone Park and how we have taught them to become "problem bears," advice from park rangers, and many other attractive features to this video.Though produced in 1987, the film comes from a very conservationist-based point of view, respects the grizzly, and does a very good job of teaching us about this magnificent animal. Peter Coyote does a wonderful job as narrator, too. If you are at all interested in bears, their behavior, and how to live in harmony with them, this is a great video to start with.
Summary of National Geographic's The Grizzlies [VHS]
Monster of imagination and monarch of the wild, the great grizzly bear has long played a part in myth and legend. Despite man's combined fear of and fascination with the grizzly, the bear survives today only by consent of his one real contender - man. Travel from Alaska's Brooks Range to Wyoming's Yellowstone National Park for a fascinating portrait of this powerful, intelligent, and extremely aggressive creature in THE GRIZZLIES.The magnificent grizzly bear, a beast most often portrayed as a deadly and dangerous monster, is profiled in detail in this documentary produced by National Geographic. As the narration of this video notes, the grizzly is the undisputed "monarch of the forest," and its only rival is man. The tension between humans and the great bears is well documented in this video, which shows how the bears were killed off in most of the western United States, but are thankfully now protected in Yellowstone National Park. In Alaska, the bears are less threatened by humans and are studied in their natural habitat. As one would expect from National Geographic, the photography in this documentary is magnificent, and the footage of the grizzlies in the wild is awesome. Scientists who have studied the bears, and a man who has trained a grizzly that has appeared in movies, provide considerable information about the intelligence and habits of grizzlies. Footage of scientists who venture into the Alaskan wilderness to a cave used by grizzlies to hibernate through the long winter, is fascinating. This is an excellent documentary, being both educational and entertaining. --Robert J. McNamara
