IMAX - Amazing Journeys (0:40) 2002

Amazing Journeys is a documentary originally presented in IMAX theaters. The film was digitally remastered and released on DVD. The migration of  five animals are highlighted:  monarch butterflies,  Canadian Geese, the grey whales, red crabs, zebras. One of the native African tribes are also highlighted. One of the facts that I learned was radar is being used to track the migration routes of small birds. Scientists are learning that birds use land forms, the setting sun, stars,and their internal compasses to return to winter homeland. This is a beautifully filmed nature documentary chock full of information. The sights and sounds of the birds in flight, whales breaching are fantastic. The chapter on the Christmas Island red crabs was absolutely fascinating. I wished I had an opportunity to see this at an IMAX screen. This is a wonderful film to watch with children and adults alike.
