What Parents Need to Know
About Night
Parents need to know that the host of this nature show often puts himself in dangerous situations to get close to the animals he studies, so expect lots of tension -- and some palpable fear -- when things don't go exactly as planned. Kids may be frightened by the frank descriptions and footage of the animals' hunting tactics, and the general content of the show might be enough to induce some new nighttime fears. But for older viewers, the series offers a fascinating glimpse into the nocturnal activities of many seldom-seen species.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about animal behavior. How do wild animals adapt to their habitats? What animals can you think of that have developed specialized abilities for hunting or to avoid becoming prey themselves? Do all animals have instinctive behavior? What examples can you think of? What impact have humans had on animals' environments? How do our everyday actions affect their ability to survive? What can we do to protect their natural habitats?
