A series of wild-life programmes.
Introduced by Peter Scott.
Many people in this country have received their main impression of Japanese wild-life from the highly decorative and formal prints which adorned Victorian drawing-rooms. In this programme Peter Scott shows a film of the wild-life on the Japanese Alps, where scalding geysers force their way through the snow, where many wild flowers familiar to these islands grow, and where there are many animals which are unfamiliar, such as flying squirrels, bears, and the attractive Yamane, which is found only in Japan.
