The Ocean's Greatest Feast

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.

Pride Rules

PRIDE RULES is a remarkable look at lion prides, their politics, their incessant drive to survive, and the daily struggles they face to protect their territory. On the banks of the Chobe River, a large lion pride dominates the highly prized floodplain territory. Led by two charismatic brothers and a plucky lioness, the pride consists of 18 members. And then there’s Einstein; the wayward son who should have left home long ago. As the dry season takes hold of their territory, the pride capitalizes on weakened elephants, fights off rival lions and sees new cubs into the fold, sparking Einstein’s inevitable eviction. But while Einstein embarks a peril-filled journey to find a new home, his original pride must battle enemies to protect their turf and their cubs. As the series unfolds, births and deaths are inevitable and battles, many. Just like the beautiful river that meanders through the floodplain, there is a constant ebb and flow of change and a constant stream of undercurrents that hint at deceit and demise.

Macaque Island

Long tailed macaques have recently being declared globally endangered and are in massive decline across South East Asia. Singapore is one of the few countries where they are managed and protected, allowing a fascinating glimpse into their complex lives and unique adaptations to the urban world. Many of the troops have adapted to live between the forest and the city fringes and have learned to make the best of the two worlds. But good monkey habitat is in short supply on this small island, and living so close to each other, it is inevitable that two of these troops will eventually cross paths. Macaques are extremely territorial and both groups are led by a charismatic alpha male who makes all the decisions for their tight family and just wants what’s best for them – including the richest home.
