The Moor - Amazing Discoveries in an eerie and dangerous Habitat

Moors and peatlands are oases in the cultivated landscape of Central Europe.

Plants that eat animals live here and mushrooms that suck the live out of plants. The rutting dance of the Great snipes and the hatching of a great crane chick are just a few of the miracles happening in a moor every season.

The film shows the biodiversity of the often rarely recognized habitat - and it is a quiet appeal: SAVE and PRESERVE the last intact MOORS!
