Royal Institution Christmas Lectures

Growing Up in the Universe: Climbing Mount Improbable (1991x3)

Air date: Dec 29, 1991

Professor Richard Dawkins starts the lecture coming in with a stick insect on his hand. He describes with how much details such a being imitates its environment, its almost like a key that fits a lock. He then shows another insect, namely a Leaf Insect, which basically looks exactly like a dead leaf.
