Overview

EARTH: A NEW WILD uses advanced filming techniques to provide visuals as stunning as the best natural history programs. But unlike most nature films, this series turns the cameras around, to show the world as it really is – with humans in the picture. Dr. M. Sanjayan takes us to the frontiers of where man and animal meet, and here he discovers how our relationship with the greatest natural history events on the planet are intimately connected to us humans; a relationship that can provide a key to preserving our present and saving our future existence.

In This Episode

Journey deep into the great forests of Earth for a new way of looking at these wild places and the animals that live there. Sanjayan travels into an uncharted area of the Amazon that scientists believe is the most bio-diverse place on Earth. From there he follows unique animal behavior in Alaska's Great Bear Rainforest and then meets the farmers in Portugal's cork forests. Frightening elephant battles are exploding on the edge of the forest in Sumatra; in the Amazon, ancient remains are helping change our perception of how to value the world's great forests.

In This Sequence

First-hand accounts from a Sumatran farmer and his dangerous encounters with elephants.
