Disney Nature films--what happened to 2013?

Earth Day is approaching, and we're already in "Earth Month," for those of you who don't think everyday is Earth Day. The past few years, DisneyNature has put out a nature-inspired documentary. Last year it was Chimpanzee, in 2011 it was African Cats, they did Ocean another year. But nothing is on the slate for this year! Say what you want about the Walt Disney company, but they know how to make movies and they reach a huge audience. So I am disappointed there is no blockbuster wildlife documentary this year. According to wikipedia, a movie called "Pollen" that came out in France in 2011 is scheduled for a US release this month, but I'm not sure if that's true. After all, it is Wikipedia.

I have to admit I'm pretty excited about next year's movie about grizzly bears. I very much admire bears from afar (let's not go all Grizzly Man here) and I'm looking forward to observing them from the safety of a movie theater. So until then, just think natureful thoughts...
