Rainforest Pixies: The Mysterious Rhynchocyon Shrew of Arabuko

2007 · 43 min Documentary
6.0 / 10 · TMDB

Barely known and never seen, elephant shrews baffle even the zoologists. With their stilt-like legs and long mobile trunk, joined to the body of a large shrew with a golden bottom, they certainly deserve their name - though they are related to neither elephant not shrew! This shy, endangered creature has become the mascot of Kenya’s beautiful Arabuko National Park. The income they attract via tourism pays for the education of local children. The elephant shrew has truly become the Spirit of the Forest.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Rainforest Pixies: The Mysterious Rhynchocyon Shrew of Arabuko has mixed reviews with a rating of 6.0/10. Good for a relaxed evening without high expectations.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A 2007 film from an era before CGI overload, with real performances that still hit hard. Best for: viewers looking to try something new without being too demanding.
