Each year Amazonia is flooded, but a miraculous resurrection takes place when it rises to the surface. "The Big Top" is the luxuriant mantle of the world's greatest rainforest, which is home to nearly half the world's species. Here, harpy eagles carry off full-grown monkeys and algae-covered tree sloths live upside down. Life and death dramas unfold in this most precarious of habitats, more than 100 feet above the forest floor. resolution: 576x368 pixels, release date: 1999, more info: http://www.pbs.org/journeyintoamazonia/bigtop.html
