Walt Disney's "Prairie and Seal Island" Season 1 Ep 3

From Season 1 of Walt Disney's Disneyland Anthology program we have Episode 3: Prairie and Seal Island which originally aired on November 10th, 1954. James Algar describes some of the tricks the Disney photographers must use to capture the lives of animals in their native habitats. The next portion of the show features animals from the prairies of North America, detailing their lives through the seasons of a typical year (portions of this segment from the Vanishing Prairie have been removed due to copyright). In the last segment Winston Hibler introduces us to Seal Island as the show moves northward to Alaska and the Pribilof Islands, the migratory home of the fur seal. This segment was the first True-Life Adventure, released theatrically in 1948.

Note: this episode is from a re-airing later in Season 1, dated July 6th, 1955. It also re-aired in color on April 28th, 1963, with some alterations (most notably Walt Disney's lead-in) on The Wonderful World of Color.
