With bulbous eyes, two long sharp tusks, a long mustache and one ton of blubber, the walrus is far from majestic. But for Kirk Johnson, scientist and Sant Director of the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, the walrus has been a creature close to his heart for 30 years. Johnson will follow his passion and trek across the Arctic to uncover the hidden lives of these lumbering giants, their cultural significance to the native peoples of the North, and the threats they face as climate change shrinks the sea ice. Johnson will explore the walrus' evolutionary past and reveal the creature's ability to adapt, survive and thrive through the ages. With global climate change, perhaps this colossal creature will be forced to adapt once more.

A unique, non-invasive, mountain lion study uses a giant network of trail cameras scattered throughout Montana's Sapphire Mountains over a decade to piece together the life story of a female mountain lion. This film weaves clips of mountain lions and their complex interactions with each other and the rest of the forest world into a story about life and death that contains never-before-captured events and behaviors at every turn.

Follow in the footsteps of London and New York's pigeon flocks to uncover their secret world as never before. Witness the challenges of city life and how the humble pigeon has overcome them! With a world population hundreds of millions strong, feral pigeons are our most familiar neighbors. They have been an ever-present companion to people for millennia, yet despite such familiarity, there's still so much we don't know about the remarkable, resilient pigeon!

On a remote stretch of Central America's Pacific coast, the lush, volcanic landscape gives way to a startlingly different world: a dry tropical forest - one of the last of its kind on the planet - where a newly resurgent population of jaguars has reclaimed their kingdom. In the waters at its edge, legions of olive ridley sea turtles emerge from the ocean for one of nature's most spectacular events, a mass nesting ritual called the arribada. Here, two unlikely creatures- the sea turtle and the jaguar - meet with spectacular consequences for both their species and the very different environments they inhabit.

The story of South Africa's annual sardine migration is brought vividly to life on camera. Each summer, the sardine run sees billions of sardines spawning and traveling up the coast, providing a feast for an array of marine predators.

Deep in the wilds of Florida, writer and naturalist Joe Hutto was given the rare opportunity to raise wild turkeys from chicks. Eventually, he had to let his children grow up and go off on their own, but this was harder than he ever imagined.

Sir David Attenborough takes us on a journey through London's world-famous Natural History Museum, revealing it as it's never been seen before, in a compelling tale of discovery and adventure. As the doors are locked and night falls, Attenborough meets the extinct creatures that fascinate him the most, as they magically come alive in front of his eyes; dinosaurs, ice age beasts and giant reptiles. This is a special collaboration of experts and curators from the Natural History Museum and world-leading animation teams, allowing new insights into how these creatures lived and behaved.
