Featuring a zoo's worth of animals, Madacy Entertainment's Amazing Habitats considers the many ways our fellow species make their homes in the world. The footage of elephants basking in mud baths and lions relaxing on the steppe will be familiar to most viewers, but it's the little creatures who steal the show here. The weaver birds' elaborate nests--composed of complex systems of knotted grasses--fascinate and perplex, while termites come off as empire builders with their skyscraper digs. And have you ever seen monkeys chilling out in a hot tub? Here's your chance. An excellent addition to any animal-enthusiast's DVD library. --Ryan Boudinot
