Some Wild Appetite (silent, 1930s)
This 1930s film showcases a variety of zoo and wildlife scenes, capturing the behaviors and feeding habits of animals in both captivity and natural environments. Bears at a zoo eat fish in a pool, monkeys climb and eat fruit, crocodiles are fed meat by a keeper, and giant tortoises compete for fruit. Lizards hunt with quick tongue movements, and opossums are shown carrying their young. Otters dive and swim in a river, catching and eating fish, while seals dive off rocks and play in the sea. The film provides a fascinating glimpse into the lives of diverse animal species, blending scenes of zoo care with naturalistic moments.
