Hostile Planet - Season 1 (2019)

The highest mountains on Earth are home to snow leopards, golden eagles, mountain goats, barnacle goslings and gelada monkeys. But only the toughest can endure the extreme weather, scarce food and limited oxygen on these peaks. Using new technology to showcase never-before-filmed animal behavior, Hostile Planet provides unique access to one of the most extreme environments on the planet.

Dive beneath the surface of the Earth's vast oceans to uncover a world of extremes, from crushing depths to stormy coasts to crowded reefs. Oceans are dynamic environments where animals must adapt to life of constant change. Discover how seals fend off sharks, how turtles risk their lives to create their next generation and how ingenious orca fight to survive in the face of competition.

Grasslands are home to the biggest stars of the animal kingdom, but top billing doesn't make life here any easier. These are some of the most volatile environments, where animals must endure an ever-shifting journey through freeze, fire, flood and drought. Life is harder than ever for the wildlife featured in this episode, from harsh weather and mating battles to the predator-and-prey dance.
