The Future Is Wild - Season 1 (2003)

With the new dry climate, the Amazon Rainforest has died out to be replaced by grasslands. The creatures of the forest have adapted themselves to a new life on the prairie.

A vast, windswept desert has replaced the Great Plains of North America. Here, most life barely gets by, but there are some who have been successful.

Now 100 million years in the future, the world has become very hot and humid. In the swamps that dominate most of the landscape, evolution has taken a strange turn.

After the melting of the glaciers, the sea levels have risen considerably and have flooded most of the lowlands. These shallow waters now hold a variety of life such as reefgliders and the Ocean Phantom.

After 100 million years, Antarctica had drifted as far North as the tropics. The continent is now covered in a vast rainforest that holds small flutter birds and large bird-eating insects.

The Himalayas have been transformed into the largest plateau the world has ever seen. The creatures here have evolved to live off of the windswept cliffs and some have formed very unlikely partnerships.

200 million years in the future, the world is recovering from another mass extinction. With the planet now once again one super continent, most of the land has been turned into a desert, where new life has begun to unfold.

With the world now one large landmass, it is surrounded on all sides by one global ocean. These waters hold no fish, but are instead dominated by large plankton, giant squids, and flish.

Since most of the world is desert, evolution has had to switch tactics to create new life. Here, beetles live in dead carcasses, snails hop around on one foot, and carnivores plants lurk below the sands.

In the Northwestern part of the world, there exists a forest where it rains everyday. The forest contains some of the strangest creatures imagineable, including an eight meter tall squid and squids that swing from the trees.
