The shoebill bird is a prehistoric-looking predator found in the wetlands of East Africa, especially near the Nile. With its massive, shoe-shaped beak, it silently stalks prey like fish, eels, and even baby crocodiles. Known for its patience and lightning-fast strikes, this bird’s hunting skills are unmatched, making it one of nature’s most fascinating creatures!

A warm welcome back to Nina Holler! 🥳🌿

Our Sustainability Manager and Production Coordinator Nina has returned after maternity leave, so we caught up with her to see how coming back to Terra Mater Studios has been.

“I actually missed the daily talks with my colleagues and being in Vienna in our nice, green office.”

“What helped me most to smoothly return to work was staying connected during my time away – even with two little kids at home, I tried to drop by the office now and then to keep I touch and stay updated. That made coming back feel natural and welcoming.”

“The whole team has been really supportive. A special thanks goes to our CEO Walter and especially my colleague Josepha Müller-Hartburg geb. Andras, who came on board the sustainability team while I was away. Both of them made my coming back really easy.”

“So many women and mothers are part of our company so coming back after maternity leave feels completely normal – you're welcomed, included and supported.”

Nina has been part of Terra Mater’s sustainability journey from the start, and now that we’re exceeding our targets, it’s great to have her back! “I’m proud to be part of this journey, knowing that our work for a greener future will benefit not only us, but also my kids and the generations after us.”

Tom Brady just made headlines by cloning his beloved dog, Lua, through Colossal Biosciences—the same company working to revive extinct species like the Mammoth and Dire Wolf. After Lua passed away in December 2023, Brady, an investor in the company, used a blood sample to bring her back, calling it a “second chance” for his family. This groundbreaking move raises big questions about the future of pet cloning—could it become the next celebrity trend or is it just an exclusive perk for investors?

The blue whale, the largest animal on Earth, moves gracefully through the ocean, consuming up to 4 tons of krill daily. Its tongue, as heavy as an elephant, aids in filtering food through massive baleen plates. Despite their size, these gentle giants embody the quiet majesty of the marine world.

We’ve already smashed our 2030 sustainability targets - what’s next? 🌿⏭️

We set an ambitious goal: reduce our carbon emissions to 50% of our 2019 benchmark by 2030. We’ve already got it down to 60%! At Terra Mater Studios, our responsibility is not just to show our planet’s rich beauty, but to work behind-the-scenes to protect it.

How did we knock the goal out of the park?
- 📈 Tracking our yearly carbon emissions
- ✈ Implementing new travel guidelines
- 🚘 Electrifying our vehicle fleet
- 🚲 Providing company bikes and supporting employee public transportation
- 🥘 Switching to vegetarian and vegan lunches

But what’s next? We’re taking our strategy to the next level, and investing in projects that we work alongside to produce our documentaries. We’ve developed procedures to directly link our films to sustainability ventures.

For Pangolin - Journey to Freedom, we joined forces with the Tikki Hywood Foundation to support their Pangolin rescues and releases.

For Mara: Rebirth, we’re collaborating with the Great Plains Foundation to promote protection of the critically important landscapes seen in the film.

We’re standing up to Green Washing, and making a real difference with our projects. We hope you’ll join us on these exciting adventures!
