This is an adapted and somewhat different version of a documentary which was also broadcasted by the BBC. The idea for 'The Future is Wild ' is very simple. Imagine a world millions of years from now without the dominating presence of humankind. The stories which derives from this world are extraordinary as well as intriguing.
The team from 'The Future is Wild' started their experiment with talking to archeologists. The movements of vast areas from Earth were carefully reconstructed. With these information it was possible to determine the movement of the different continents in the future. After this, climatologists got their chance to compare their calculations with those from the archeologists to place new eco-systems on the future map. All this information was passed through to biologists who, on their turn, occupied this future with animals.
The result is a rich fantasy world, which is even more intriguing because it really could happen. No event or animal-species in 'The Future Is Wild' is really impossible. This world could have never been created by just one person. Experts on geology, neuro-biology, plants, insects, evolution, sea life and many others were asked to share their visions. Their ideas and feedback ended up in a team of price winning nature documentary makers. They brought animals alive by creating stories on the behavior of these new species. The process was now complete, and this simple idea was finally ready to be shared with the world.
On 3 dvds is shown how the world will look in 5,100 and 200 million years from now.

  • I'm from philippines...

    so i'll just have to wait for a few million years to get to australia without a visa?

    2:45

  • @mahoraking13 ; With some luck you won't have to wait that long. Due to the worldwide situation today the whole system might collapse soon and, if you survive, you can travel whereever you want, without a visa ;)

    Btw, I love the Philippines , it's culture and 1 of it's greatest singers Freddy Aquilar

  • I'm quite thankful that Youtube hasn't taken this down. I know how they can be about videos that are...you know, owned by other companies. I think the BBC realizes that it's good advertisement for them.

  • @Echofrost12 ; as long as you give them credits and remind them of the fair use article they don't have as much trouble with posting documentaries like this for education and not earning any profits. I know that movies are more likely to be removed.

  • I love the wild future!

  • @dinoloverist ; thanks. I'm converting the next 2 parts tomorrow so hopefully they'll be on by the end of next week.

see all

  • Koyaanisqatsi Rip-Off Intro!!!

  • I prefer this one over the "cartoon version" any day!

  • @XtalQRP Evolution isn't an organism changing. Just telling you. I'm not telling you your beliefs are wrong, but that isn't what evolution is. Evolution can be witnessed happening today, in dogs and cats. We created dog breeds through evolution. All evolution is, is two animals surviving to breeding age because they have what it takes to survive. Their child will then have their superior genes. If a fox with big ears and another breed, their kids will likely also have big ears.

  • its amazing how they can't accuratly predict the weather for next week. they think they are accuratley predicting what the earth is going to look like millions of years into the future! although i must say there animal designs for the specific habitats are truely facinating

  • cool music at the begining but that wont distract me!!!!!!!!
