The earth is so magnificent

that we have fewer things in life they slip away easily.

But if we take a closer look...

We see an as yet undiscovered world.

A world where tiny heroes...

and small posts...

they need extraordinary superpowers...

That help them overcome many dangers.

Jungles of Latin America,

where many small creatures live...

NARRATED BY PAUL RUDD

...like anywhere else.

A new life begins in waste.

Jagodnorde�a podrevnica he carries a tadpole on his back.

It is the size of a grain of rice.

The underground world of the jungle is too dangerous for him.

He has to find a safe place to live.

High above, in the crown of this 40-meter the jungle skyscraper.

For a bug the size of a grape...

it's like Mount Everest.

Sticky fingers allow it to grip.

But one slip can be fatal.

He has a varied company on the tree.

From the roots...

...to the top.

It can live on one tree as many as five thousand species of tiny creatures.

It is finally in a sun-drenched crown.

Water is retained on the pineapple leaves,

in which the tadpole will appear.

But because for water and space so many small animals compete,

life in the jungle is uncertain.

Only the fittest survive.

D�UNGLA

Meet the smallest monkey in the world.

Little silkworm.

An adult is no bigger than your palm.

When you're so small, it's hard to separate between friend, enemy and food.

But at least he can find food

right under your feet.

It scrapes the bark with its sharp teeth

and makes holes in it, in which sweet tree sap is collected.

On a big tree there can be more than a thousand of them.

Quite enough for a growing family.

Excellent. New members joined.

They are as big as a table tennis ball.

Little silkworms twins are almost always born.

Care for them is shared by both parents, older youths also help...

when they are not fighting.

Cooperation is an integral part of life of these small primates.

As well as keeping it higher on a tree trunk.

It's too dangerous down there...

Upstairs too crowded.

The screams are sixty times louder from the little silk mill and they rule up here.

Eighty percent of the animals in the jungle lives in the crowns of trees.

Life is more difficult on the forest floor.

The sun's rays rarely make their way here, therefore, there is not much growth.

The small agouti feeds on what which falls from above.

Rain is the driver of life in the jungle.

It falls to 300 milliliters per year.

Every drop has a powerful effect on small creatures.

Precipitation fills the tadpole's pool.

But sometimes there can be too much of a good thing.

Water absorbed by plants and bark it can weigh down old trees.

Heavy downpours wash away a thin layer of soil.

Giant trees have been resisting for centuries possible storms...

Until one day...

When a tree this big falls...

It is created for life in the jungle a big gap.

Jagodnorde�a underbelly survived.

Her tadpole, however, is uninsured.

A false coral feels it.

The mother can't do anything else...

Like starting over.

Bad luck for someone it can be a win for others.

Tailor ants no longer need to climb.

The leaves are several times larger than them.

But every ant can carry ten times as much as it weighs.

A colony of eight million ants can thus bare the tree

in a few days.

A fallen giant attracts different species tiny leaf eaters.

Small silkworms do not eat leaves.

Loss of a large source of tree sap it's a bad accident.

But these little creatures they are surprisingly predatory.

With your spindly legs they can jump up to three meters high.

With curved claws clings like hooks.

Teeth that bite the bark, they are also effective for girls.

These little monkeys are easy to hunt in the tangle of fallen branches.

They eat everything they can get their hands on.

But your appearance is deceiving.

Excellent mimicry.

This caterpillar mimics so well dead cat

that it's creepy.

After several centuries of shadow

the forest floor is suddenly bathed in the sun.

Dormant seeds begin to germinate and try to grow into as big a plant as possible.

It's a race for light.

Climbers and wraps are fast.

In the fight for your place under the sun suppress all other saplings.

The fallen giant is soon covered with new growth.

The gap turned into a lush clearing.

But this is not paradise.

Hummingbirds are as light as a sheet of paper.

They replace smallness with aggression.

Some have a sharp beak like a blade and even teeth.

That they can fight for flowers.

Hummingbirds must feed every few minutes.

They lick the nectar with their forked tongue 20 times per second.

They have to be fast.

Competitors are ruthless.

But it doesn't have to be that way.

Because of the sickle shape of heliconia flowers

most hummingbirds it cannot feed from them.

But the green owl has a debt, curved beak.

It allows him to to feed on nectar in peace.

Almost.

although quite tiny,

the florists sipped almost all the nectar of Heliconia.

On to the next flower they must be transferred by another animal.

They are almost as fast for their size like cheetahs.

He rushes along the hummingbird's beak,

to hide in his nostrils...

ready to transfer it to the next flower.

The clearing has been converted

and the forest floor is dark again.

Damp conditions are ideal for fungi,

which cause the rotting of fallen trees.

It is much more difficult to find fresh food here.

Brazil nut shell it is too hard for most animals.

But not for agoutis.

�esar can't eat right away, buries it for later.

It is alive by nature.

He has a good reason for that.

Margaj is hardly bigger than a domestic cat.

But much more dangerous.

Dark forest floor they hide many predators.

They are small, and therefore even more terrifying.

With 40 nightstands

a large claw stalks behind the finger in silence.

His hunting tactics it's like out of science fiction.

It follows the victim's movements with its sensitive hairs.

He must crawl closer...

That he can use a secret weapon.

Shoot the web.

Sticky threads harden in no time.

Escape is not possible.

Tiny creatures must be on the go at all times.

A female of the strawberry-red warbler has just decided to spawn again.

But he must be protected by a male.

The bright red color is a warning to predators.

Its skin secretes a deadly poison.

Only one problem is...

False corals are immune to poison.

And they detect every movement very quickly.

He will be completely alone...

He might survive.

But he can't hide from everything.

A competitor.

He wants to take over this territory.

If he succeeds, he will eat the spawn.

This little daddy has to fight all or nothing.

They are equivalent, because none is heavier than a sugar cube.

They can fight for more than half an hour.

The lady is getting tired.

But the father won.

The rival is gone, at least for now.

He must protect the spawn for another two weeks, before the tadpoles hatch.

They develop as the forest ages more complicated relationships.

This golden bee is on an unusual mission.

She flew over 40 kilometers to get here.

She is not alone.

They are all trots and only care about one thing.

Not pollen.

But di�ava.

This orchid emits a scent,

which will make it attractive to queens.

So he collects it as much as he can.

But if he is not careful...

He will drown in it.

There is only one solution.

The exit is very narrow.

Orchid won't let him go no parting gift.

With pollen on the back.

Trot is still trying to win the queen,

and the orchid did its job.

For the little silkworm, life returns into normal rails.

There are currently few students.

But that won't be a problem.

They busily drill holes in new trees for tree sap.

Their loud neighbors have also returned.

They make noise, feed...

And they defecate.

When nature calls,

the little ones have to deal with it.

This little superhero cleans the crown.

A hro�� as big as a dime.

No job is too difficult for him.

At 20 meters...

Just hold on as hard as you can.

Other cleaners are coming.

Balls of feces roll away and they bury them.

Food for young people.

And fertilizer for the forest.

The jungle is a complicated world, full of extraordinary little animals.

Each has its own task.

Even those tiny primates.

Their spontaneous corner of the forest is constantly changing.

But for now, life is good.

It's below

remaining brazil nuts, which the agouti ignored.

It grows slowly in the shade.

Bet on the long run.

Small things grow into giants.

D�ungla may be seen like an endless sea of greenery...

But it lives on every tree the world of small miracles.

Jagodnorde�a podrevnica

i��e a safe place for your little tadpole.

He must venture...

And take care of the future.

Way up

it is long.
