This time for me the most amazing sequence was of the chimps. I knew that they wage war. I did not know that they practiced cannibalism. But the shot that got to me was the one where the chief chimp (I'm guessing he was the chief) was eating the spoils of war. His friend put out his hand. The chief gave his friend what he was eating. Our closest relatives--wage war and acknowledge friendship.
Spectacular. Okay, so I'm repeating myself.
I had the same reaction to the chimp war and subsequent cannibalism . . . amazing footage.
I have to say I have learned a tremendous amount Planet Earth so far, particularly in the area of what animals unexpectedly either eat their own or similar species.
Damn, only 2 more episodes left.
