Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesThree well-known persons appear uncredited: Julius Nyerere, the first president of Tanzania, Richard Gordon Turnbull, the last colonial governor of Tanganyika, and Moise Tshombe, a Congolese politician who returned to Congo to "stop the rebellion" and died three years after this film was made.
- GaffesThere's a scene that shows bodies lined on the ground outside because of lack of space in the morgue, and are surrounded by birds. The subtitles say "The vultures are patiently waiting for their turn, after the operation." The birds are not vultures, but pelicans.

Narrator: At the end of the Ice Age, a warm current broke this little colony of penguins off of the glaciers of the south and carried them here on huge rafts of ice that melted in the sun. Isolated and without the possibility of returning to their original homeland, they have for centuries been strangers in a strange land that is becoming more and more heated and hostile toward them surrounded by a sea that grows higher and more and more filled with rage. Perhaps a little peace will descend upon these waters sooner or later, before a wave stronger than the others tears them away forever from this last rock that forms the geographic end of the Dark Continent.
- Versions alternativesBefore receiving a UK cinema certificate the film was cut by over 12 minutes and was missing all footage of rotting human corpses and animal killings.

The atrocities against the animals in this documentary absolutely made me sick. Animals are slaughtered relentlessly, cruelly and for no reason other than the sport of it. I wanted those wild animals to rip their killers to shreds. At least once it would have been nice to see one of the poachers ripped to shreds by the elephants, lions and hippos.
It never ceases to sicken me how a man with a gun thinks he has really accomplished something by shooting an animal. Watching the men stand proudly with their gun over the carcass of an animal for a photo just makes me sick. They should all have been fed to the lions.
This documentary proves one thing and one thing only. Humans are the sickest and cruelest animals on the planet.
