The World About Us: Baobab

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

A film portrait of an African 'upside-down tree' and its wildlife.
The ancient baobab provides shade, food and shelter for everything from elephants to bush-babies. It is the hornbills, however, that use the tree in the most remarkable way, and this unique film reveals some of the innermost secrets of one of the most fascinating life-cycles in the bird world.
