Snails and Their Habitats
Biodiversity and Survival Strategies
They are slow, really slow … they are soft, they are slimy …and greedy.
Most of us look at them with disgust. But snails and their relatives are fascinating, useful animals and true survivors.
Snails and slugs live on land, in freshwater and in the sea. They have been crawling across our planet for more than 500 million years.
The number of species is a matter of estimation. Biologists assume there are up to 100,000. In Germany, their number is limited with about 180 species. Nevertheless, surprisingly little is known about the mode of life of terrestrial snails although some species are very conspicuous.

Dancing until your feet hurt: Here, at the meeting on the Hoher Meissner near Kassel, 3,500 participants from Boy Scout associations, youth and Wandervogel groups from all over the German-speaking region have gathered. They want to celebrate, simply get to know each other and commemorate a historic anniversary.
Copyright
Copyright is subject to constant change to keep up with technological advances. This film enables the viewer to grasp the basic principles of this extremely intricate matter. By way of introduction, the film defines what an author is, what kinds of works there are and how long a work is protected on principle. Then the fundamental rights of an author are cited and it is shown how these are exploited in our times. In the third chapter, the respective rights are illustrated by way of practice-oriented examples of books, photos, music and films. Here, of course, an emphasis is laid on the field of education, taking into account the latest case law within the EU and Austria in particular. A further chapter highlights the problems arising with the Internet and goes into the citation law and pirate copies. All in all, in this way the viewer is made familiar with the most important basic terms and their meanings. Comprehensive worksheets and additional accompanying material invite us to deepen our knowledge of the subject.
