In an ancient city reclaimed by Sri Lanka’s forests, lives a unique species of monkey – toque macaques. Over the last fifty years scientist Dr Wolfgang Dittas has lived alongside them. He’s uncovered secrets about their families, friends and foes and is now revealing how these extraordinary monkeys are adapting to a modern world that is crowded with humans.

Deadly Australians

DEADLY AUSTRALIANS takes an up close and personal look at the secret lives of Australia’s most notorious – and sometimes little known – killers, including the world’s most venomous snakes, deadly jellyfish, monster crocs and venom-laden spiders.

Valley of Flood and Fire

The seasonal changes of the Luangwa Valley are extraordinarily intense. Heavy rains transform the Luangwa River from a shallow channel into a majestic waterway where grass grows tall and streams fill with an abundant selection of creatures, providing plentiful food for many grazing mouths. It is a wetland paradise. But it is short lived. A relentless and crippling drought follows and lasts for a majority of the year; weakening all life, save for the predators who take advantage of this widespread fall. This is the VALLEY OF FLOOD AND FIRE.

Meet the Penguins

In a sunlit corner of the southernmost part of Africa, there’s a very special rescue centre for some of the country’s noisiest residents: the African penguin. The passionate team made up of vets and volunteers at the Sanccob Seabird Rescue Centre work day and night to bring these loveable creatures back from extinction, releasing recovered birds back into the wild and providing a loving home for those that cannot return.

Shadowlands

From the sub-Antarctic to southern New Zealand, the SHADOWLANDS are a diverse group of habitats in the remote southern latitudes of our planet. Here high-stakes wildlife dramas play out in snow-capped fiords where saltwater mixes with fresh, where warm currents meet cold Antarctic waters. Here, the world’s most southerly bottlenose dolphins and the rare Fiordland crested penguins make their home, while Great white sharks patrol the coasts and on the ocean floor a mass migration of spider crabs getS under way. These creatures must be tough to endure the extreme weather here at the best of times, but increasingly unpredictable climate patterns are making their lives even harder. Those who are born in the cold southern seas need all their animal cunning to grow up and ensure their kind survives in the SHADOWLANDS.
