About This Program
Camera crews follow the activities of wildlife in the Arctic and Antarctic, including an emperor penguin colony's nine-month migration across sea ice to its breeding ground. The team also takes aerial and underwater shots to capture humpback whales feeding and tracks a male polar bear as it swims 100km to find new ice from which to hunt seals
