Isabella reporting,
Today's short video,
De Herinacio: On the Hedgehog, is no ordinary nature video. Instead it's a charming animation inspired by a 13th c. English medieval bestiary, the Rochester Bestiary, now in the British Library (shown
right.) This story of how hedgehogs collect grapes from vineyards for their families is imaginative, even if it bears little resemblance to real hedgehog behavior; you can read more about the story
here on the British Library blog.
The video was made by
Obrazki nunu and Discarding Images. Yes, it's in Latin, but there are English subtitles, and it's just delightful.
