In this 45-minute video, each vital plant and animal community, and its corresponding climate and topography, are highlighted. we also have an extensive video library of environmental programs produced by Wildside Productions, Ltd. for such networks as the National Geographic Channel and Animal Planet.

Slide Shows
We offer three different slide shows:

Colorado's Eco-zones: A comprehensive guide to Colorado's five major ecosystems. It emphasizes the concept of natural communities.

Land of the Maya: Takes the viewer on tour through the lowland rainforest of Central America and the awesome Mayan temples of Tikal.

Life on the Edge: is about the mountain gorillas of the Virunga Mountain Range in Rwanda. This slide show looks at the human existence relative to the gorilla in their natural environment.

We work closely with instructors to be sure that we are effectively reaching their students. We also tailor our presentations to fit any age group or particular area of study. Mario presents each slide show and animal presentation in a fun-filled, high energy, hour-long format. These presentations allow students to see plants and animals in their various ecological settings, drawing them to an understanding of the importance of wildlife, as well as habitat conservation.

These programs will make a perfect addition to your Earth Day celebration, or as a supplement to any science or ecology class!
