| Summary |
"From the frozen Arctic wastelands to the blazing heat of the African plains, from the flooded Amazon forests to the caves of South-East Asia, each episode reveals the greatest sights, sounds and dramas of the animal world. The six-part series charts the effects of global climatic phenomena which have the power to transform entire landscapes, drawing in thousands of animals and determining their fate. Each episode is set in a different part of the world and demonstrates how immense natural forces, often starting thousands of miles away, drive a chain reaction that culminates in a spectacular wildlife event."
