Now new research reveals that play is at the heart of almost everything an animal learns. In ANIMALS AT PLAY we uncover why play is so much more than just having a good time.

The Ocean's Greatest Feast
Earth Touch
1 x 60' 4K HDR
At the start of every winter, the coast of South Africa sees billions of little fish converge in the biggest biomass migration on the planet. It’s the annual sardine run – a literal force of nature that feeds an entire coastline. The sardines ride a cold current through a gauntlet of predators, against all odds of survival - but the purpose of the journey remains a mystery. They race past a hungry seal colony, endure an aerial assault by gannets and face hungry sharks. When dolphins show up, the feast kicks into even higher gear, before orcas arrive with a final surprise. Watch this yearly wild run in OCEAN'S GREATEST FEAST. Narrated by Graham McTavish.
