Well-known English broadcaster and naturalist Sir David Attenborough is set to make a documentary based on a book by Monash palaeontologist Professor Patricia Vickers-Rich.
Professor Vickers-Rich recently received the Premier's Literary Award for science writing for The Rise of Animals: Evolution and Diversification of the Kingdom Animalia, an account of the emergence of animal life in the cold and inhospitable Precambrian period.
Production of the documentary series has begun in Newfoundland with other locations expected to include South Australia's Flinders Ranges, the Russian tundra and African deserts.
