Description
Summary:Animals are great wanderers, making epic journeys on land, through the air or beneath the ocean. This series follows six individual animals on a maiden voyage in the ultimate travel show. Each film is packed with action and adventure in the most spectacular of settings. A tiny swallow flies from rural England to tropical Botswana, a new-born Caribou calf treks across the Tundra, a Monarch butterfly flutters across North America, an eel swims the depths of the Pacific, and a grey whale makes an annual round-trip through tropical and polar seas. This episode follows a Western Diamond-backed Rattlesnake across the Sonoran Desert to its Winter hibernation cave as it uses heat imagery to negotiate rough terrain.
