Description of Pictures: Tatra Mountains: Life on the Edge
Co-Presented in partnership with EKOTOP Film Festival and with the support of the Trust for Mutual Understanding.
The Tatra mountain range looms high above the clouds like an island – the smallest high mountain group on earth. A unique environment with unique challenges: some species have thrived here since the ice age, like shipwrecked sailors. Chamois and marmots have even evolved particular subspecies. The chamois are well equipped for the harsh climate, in spite of the snowstorms that can even break out in the middle of summer. The marmots, meanwhile, spend more than half the year asleep during daytime. Other animals, like red deer and bears, repopulated the region after the end of the ice age. Since then, they’ve tried to master the various challenges of this mountainous world. How have they managed? The second part of the series focuses on exactly this question, and shows how different species have adapted to life at great heights.
Q&A – Erik Balaz; Peter Lim and Tereza Gemeranova, International Festival of Sustainable Development Films – Ekotopfilm.
Introductions were provided by Maryanne Culpepper and Peter Kmec, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary from the Slovak Republic.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.
