One of the most amazing stories in the natural world -- a tale of intrigue and drama, set against grand Africa and its wildlife.
The fig tree and fig wasp differ in size a billion times over, but neither could exist without the other. Their extraordinary relationship underpins a complex web of dependency that supports animals from ants to elephants. Each fig is a microcosm -- a stage set for birth, sex and death.
One of the most amazing stories in the natural world -- a tale of intrigue and drama, set against grand Africa and its wildlife.

Instead of all the negative environmental proselytizing in schools to even young students, it would be wonderful if elementary school children learned to appreciate the natural world from solely a positive perspective, as reflected in this film. You don't need to be taught to protect what you love: you do that instinctively.

Still its most likely not a conscious act since humans think insects act merely on instinct. I am not sure about that but wont debate it -what do i know-. The wasps wont forget to pollinate tho, In any case the instinct is way to strong to ignore. They simply have no other purpose, choice or idea.

You need to watch it again! You SEE only competition, not the intricate cooperative community which is the real story. A species that "succeeds" too well can destroy the plants and animals upon whom their own lives depend. Humans are like King Midas, who wanted gold so much he prayed that everything he touched would turn to gold. Soon, he starved. Then he inadvertantly turned his daughter into a golden statue. By trying to convert everything into profits for the next quarter, we are killing the goose that laid the golden egg. It will be impossible to replace all the FREE SERVICES THAT NATURE PROVIDES US. Science STILL doesn't even know all the insects and how they maintain a balance with other life forms. Yet we want ALL of every resource, leaving behind only a wasteland. We won't know how much we have destroyed when we kill a keystone species, but the cascading effects over decades will be horrific. If you believe that God created each species, why do you destroy the art He created? To destroy the masterpiece of Nature's intricate web of interdependence is blasphemous!

@Rebecca Farley I'm sorry for missing it, but where does Daniela express a desire to worship the act of creation? I read her words to be an expression of profound respect and of enlightenment of the connections life has shared over millenia, and a lament for man's foolish exploitation and destruction of the Creator's work. She isn't worshiping anything but the Creator by expressing her admiration for His work and the shame of humanity's foolishness. Her amazement lies in observing the Creator's wonder of life in all it's intricacies. See the good before the bad for life is better without negative criticism. Be safe, be happy. :)

This is a masterpiece, thank you so much for making this available. I was searching for a documentary after reading about the relationship between a fig tree and a fig wasp, the footage here made this amazing relationship come to live. I have learned so much about an important role a fig tree plays in an eco system despite its reputation as a killer species like strangler figs . It's a superb concept to use a fig tree to explain that all lifes are inter-connected, the system so complex, so beautiful but yet so fragile that we need to treat with up most respect. Thank again 😊🙏

Main Fig-fly life ... and ... the other pop-up MANY - MANY life-forms that make their pilgrimage to this ONE tree (type) during this filming of this specific Queen Tree. At the end, I would still have my eyes bulging as I count the HUGE NUMBER of reciprocates shown within during ONE SEASONING of figs, within the many seasons each tree celebrates. P.S.S.. LOVE the word & phrase: Co-Evolving over Millions of Years together.

A doc like this is shot in different parts. The scenes inside the figs are most likely not shot in the figs on the tree but in a sort of lab/studio set up. Which makes it a lot easier to put in the tiny little cameras that in size could compare to the ones used in for example phones.

That's a fascinating detail! And, if I recall my art history, there are many depictions of this tree providing for mankind in art through the ages. The ancient cultures did indeed see this tree as symbolic of divine provision, representative of the circle of life and death. How cool! I now have a new vision to recall when I see a tree represented in art; the Sycamore Fig. Thanks for the history connection Zeph.

In South and South East Asia it is the banyan or beringin or strangling fig, so also a fig tree, that relies on a species of fig wasps. It is also a sacred tree standing model for the tree of life depicted in openings of the shadow puppet play.
