Nature documentary

A nature documentary or wildlife documentary is a documentary film or series about animals, plants, or other non-human living creatures. Nature documentaries usually concentrate on video taken in the subject's natural habitat, but often including footage of trained and captive animals, too. Sometimes they are about wildlife or ecosystems in relationship to human beings.

Such programmes are most frequently made for television, particularly for public broadcasting channels, but some are also made for the cinema.
The proliferation of this genre occurred almost simultaneously alongside the production of similar television series which is distributed across the world.
