"Whispers: An Elephant's Tale"

I've seen a movie on Star Movies channal "Whispers: An Elephant's Tale." It isn't a cartoon, and it talks about a baby elephant, Whispers, his adventure. Whispers separated from his loving mother and started an adventure journey with another auntie elephant, Groove. In order to find Mother, Whispers met many problems and overcomed many challenges. He is really brave. This movie looks like a documentary, but it is from "Walt Disney" in 2000. The set is in the wilds of Africa, and the characters are all animals like elephants, tigers, monkeys, etc.. When I watched it first time, I just couldn't image how to shoot this movie because all roles are animals. Although it is dubbed in English and easy to understand, it's really difficult to handle these animals. Do you know how Disney filmed this movie? They observed and stared at the animals who express themselves with human voices and caught every reactions of animals and added with dub. In my opinion, only "Wonderful and Marvelous" can describe this movie. However, it's a pity there's no DVD or VCD published in Taiwan. You can only watch it on some western movies channels if there is a chance. I like this movie because it's really worth to see.
