About
"Australia: Out west down under: Jacques Cousteau journeys to an underwater time capsule. Off the barren west coast of Australia lie shallow coral outposts rich with a variety and abundance of marine life that were common in many areas when Cousteau started his diving career and are all too rare today. Here sea snakes that left land 20-million years ago, docile sea cows, 100-pound groupers and pearlers who practice sustainable fishing. Mel Gibson narrates. Tasmania: Australia's awakening island: Mel Gibson narrates this film voyage to under Downumber: the island of Tasmania. In the temperate sea, kelp forests nurture the fascinating, stick-thin Tasmanian sea dragon. On land, astonishing 18,000 miles a year, are prey for tiger snakes. And contemporary Tasmanians awakened to the duty of environmental stewardship challenge the logging industry that has devastated much of their island's beauty"--Container.
