The Biology of James Cameron’s Avatar

In this video I discuss the biology and zoology of the organisms of the fictional world of Pandora from James Cameron’s 2009 film, Avatar. I examine and apply many evolutionary biology terms and facts to help me create a speculative tree of life on Pandora as a thought experiment. Hope you enjoy!...
