| Hemideina tree weta are a group of large, flightless, nocturnal insects endemic to New Zealand. |

| Does this explain why weta alone among the major PBS affiliates has opted not to broadcast this important documentary? |
|
| The weta, an endemic insect specie of New Zealand, is the heaviest insect in the world. |
|
| The New Zealand tree weta, which can be as large as a small mouse, produces vibrations used in mate location by sending bending waves through the sturdy manuka tree. |
|
| And in the foreground, a gorilla and a gorilla-sized weta roar and slaver. |
|
| A giant weta may become as large as a mouse. |

|
| In total, 48,000 pieces of armour, 500 bows, and 10,000 arrows were created by Weta Workshop. |
|
| It was acquired from the makers of the film's armour, Weta Workshop, when the museum hosted an exhibition of WETA armour from their films. |
|
| This documentary on sword martial arts also featured Weta Workshop and Richard Taylor, The Lord of the Rings illustrator John Howe and actors Viggo Mortensen and Karl Urban. |
