'Life' in a boxed set

I watched the DVD boxed set of the BBC series "Life." It originally aired on Discovery Channel.

This four-disc set contained an amazing amount of information. Everything was presented in a nice, easy-to-understand way that any person would find interesting. The discs contained information on so many different species. It contained mammals, amphibians, birds, insects, reptiles, fish and plants. It showed the diversity of life as well as similarities. These sets contained astounding footage that has never been filmed before, such as a Komodo dragon killing and eating prey much larger than itself by waiting for it to die after it was weakened. Overall, it was a wonderful presentation that would be an excellent choice to watch.
