Singapore A Day for NatureTaking travel programming on the wild
side, the series recognises the trend for responsible eco-tourism
and amongst other things highlights the fun of seeing wildlife thats
sometimes just a few hundred yards from the doors of the resorts.
Wildlife that often goes unnoticed!Produced by travel programming
veterans, Hall TV, these programmes aim to encourage holidaymakers
to take one day out of their vacation and explore the nature
reserves, seashores and oceans that they may otherwise
ignore.Presenter Richard Hall takes the viewer on an informal,
informative and humorous journey to well known holiday destinations
and then explores the beautiful and exotic flora and fauna to be
found there, from manatees and wild boar at Cape Canaveral, to
flying lemurs a few kilometres from the bustling heart of Singapore,
or even coral, surviving on the Mediterranean coast of Benidorm.The
series also includes a rare glimpse behind the scenes at Disneys
Animal Kingdom, where Hall contemplates and questions whether the
theme park is merely there to profit from an entertaining day out,
or if its genuinely trying to change peoples perceptions of the
plight of wildlife on our planet.Once described by the Times as a
cross between Floyd and Clarkson, Hall freely admits, the more I
travel, the more I realise just howmuch Im missing. Each location,
no matter how developed, has its own unique natural history. Take
Acapulco for instance - how many people are aware that it boasts one
of the largest frigate bird colonies in South America?
