- Description
- Episode Description
- The first of two episodes with natural history photographer Murl Deusing. The rain forests of Latin America are not thick and impenetrable, but open and park like. Of the four layers of life in the jungle the upper canopy, the lower canopy, the understory, and the ground level this episode examines the wild life of the first two. The upper and lower canopy are the areas in the forest where monkeys, toucans, humming birds, bird-eating spiders, and leaf-cutter ants live.

- Series Description
- Whats New is a childrens series that ran from 1961-1973. The early seasons typically consist of multiple segments, each from an ongoing series on a specific topic. Each segment was produced by a separate educational broadcasting station, and the linkage between the segments was produced by WHYY and hosted by Al Binford. In episodes from later seasons the format varies more, with many episodes focusing on one story or topic throughout the entire 30 minutes. (Description adapted from documents in the NET Microfiche)
