13 Hours To Survive

Journey to the breathtaking, miniature ocean world where the tide creates both opportunity and peril. As the ocean recedes with each low tide, sea creatures—hermit crabs, octopuses, baby sharks, and more—are trapped in tide pools, forced into an intense struggle for survival. In this ever-changing microcosm, predators and prey face off as conditions worsen: the water grows warmer, more acidic, and low on oxygen. Filmed off the coast of Brittany, France, with cutting-edge underwater technology, the series reveals unexpected animal behaviors, from fierce battles to surprising alliances, births, and the will to survive. With just 13 hours until the tide returns, who will make it out alive?

Written in Stone

WRITTEN IN STONE is the story of northwestern Canada’s Mount Todagin. It’s known as a “Serengeti in the sky” and yet it was once the ocean’s floor. This ancient seabed vaulted into the sky upon the shoulders of warring mountain ranges. Here on this alpine plateau mowed close by relentless winds, life subsists on the narrowest of margins. But this seemingly inhospitable landscape is home to an exotic species of mountain sheep and the Native peoples who have used this mountain for millennia. This documentary explores how the very minerals that attract the sheep and the indigenous people may also cause them to abandon Mount Todagin…forever.

Wild Antarctica

Antarctica is the most remote and pristine wilderness on the planet. It is a timeless and harsh land like no other. Night here can last three months and in the peak of summer, the sun never sets. To understand how life can exist in this continent of snow and icebergs we must spend a year there. We discover that despite being the least habitable place on Earth, life abounds in Antarctica. Megafauna such as humpback whales and orcas, massive seals and stately penguins all take the brutal conditions head on and thrive in this year on ice.

National Parks From Above

Across the world, countries have turned some of their most incredible areas of natural beauty into national parks, preserving them for generations to come. From the frozen expanse of Iceland's Vatnajökull ice cap, to the steep limestone gorges of the Cévennes in southern France, this series will explore these areas by not only taking a cinematic journey from above, but also by swooping down closer to the ground to meet the people who use these landscapes every day, discovering the often extreme jobs they undertake and the unique lives they lead.

Woodpeckers: The Hole Story

There are over 240 species of woodpeckers. They live on every continent except Antarctica and Australia. Woodpeckers come in all shapes and sizes, each uniquely engineered for their particular lifestyles. Some are sap drinkers, others live exclusively in forests ravaged by fire. Others catch insects on the wing acting more like a swallow than a woodpecker. And still others drill deep into the bark of decaying trees using their spear like tongue to fish insects from deep in the cambium. WOODPECKERS: THE HOLE STORY pecks away at what makes woodpeckers so special. We will follow intimate stories of two very different families raising their young, explore woodpeckers’ unique evolutionary journey and the powerful role they play in every ecosystem they inhabit.
