• August 22nd, 2020 • 0h 0min
Documentary
Overview
In the heart of our forests, the death of an animal is synonymous with a feast. In the Bavarian Forest National Park, a team of researchers is trying to gain a better understanding of the phenomena and interactions that accompany animal corpses. Little is known about the complex cycle of death in woodland species: larvae developing in carcasses, organisms modifying their chemical composition, plants transforming the nutrients contained in corpses... From the tiniest mouse to the imposing red deer, decomposing bodies provide refuge for tiny life forms and become a source of food for opportunists.
