PBS
Distribution announced today it is releasing “NOVA: WILD WAYS” on DVD.
Four-lane highways may be a necessity to our modern society, but they can be
death traps for millions of animals that try to cross them. Wildlife the world
over need to roam for breeding, foraging, and to carry out their traditional
migrations; but they are often blocked by ranches, farms, roads, and other human-made obstacles. While national
parks and preserves offer some protection to wildlife, even the magnificent
Serengeti and Yellowstone parks are too small to sustain healthy populations over
generations.
But
now comes new hope for wildlife through an approach called “connectivity
conservation.” The program reveals through stunning cinematography how some of
the world’s most beloved species; lions, bears, antelope and elephants, can be
preserved by linking the world’s wildlife refuges with tunnels, overpasses, and protected land corridors.
“NOVA: WILD WAYS”
will be available on DVD July 12,
2016. The run time of the DVD is approximately 60 minutes and
its SRP is $24.99.
