Tierisch müde - Das Rätsel Schlaf

I have always been impressed by the fact that giraffes hardly sleep during the day and night, and when it comes to it, they do it “standing up". While How Wild Things Sleep does not offer a look under the "sleepy giraffe hood", it nevertheless depicts equally interesting sleeping or wakefulness habits in other animals, of which I was personally most intrigued by the lambs, who paddle across the water in complete relaxation even when fully asleep. The film has more than one conjecture or hypothesis, so some of the "facts" should be taken with a grain of salt, but the experts themselves mention several times that this is often the early stages of their research.
