Animals

Actor Patrick Stewart reveals the secret superpowers of the animal kingdom in a three-part documentary. It's a mix of action-packed location filming that follows scientists tracking and catching these extraordinary animals, stunning footage of extreme animal behaviour, and CGI animation. In `Extreme Hunters', Stewart investigates the supersenses possessed by nature's most successful hunters, including the hammerhead shark and sperm whale; `Extreme Killers' unravels the superpowers of the alligator, peregrine falcon, and army ant; and `Extreme Survivors' highlights ways in which animals combat enemies, such as octopuses that instantly change the colour of their skin and eels that use a deadly electric bolt.
