Leila Barber- Planet Earth

I was watching Planet Earth Oceans and it was showing footage of different creatures and how they interact with each other. For example, some creatures’ main point in life is to follow around a bigger fish and keep it clean. Sea turtles are born and travel across thousands of miles of ocean but return to the same place they were born to breed. In the depth of the oceans where sunlight doesn’t reach are incredible life forms that are still being discovered. Self illumination is used for some species down there to get prey, etc. Most species that far down can go weeks and months without food. When they do get food, they only take as much as needed. This is different from our species that takes more than we need of various foods and keeps them/wastes them. The documentary magnified our planet’s beauty and how everything fits together so well. Humans have yet to discover or regress back to being in harmony with the rest of the planet. We have taken over the earth and made our species the top priority, in doing this we are becoming oblivious to the beautiful landscape that surrounds us. The footage made me appreciate our world’s beauty even more.
