Seven Worlds, One Planet
South America
Season 1 Episode 3 of 7
David Attenborough looks at life in South America, where animals must specialise if they are to carve out a niche. In Patagonia, a puma mother draws on a lifetime's experience to catch prey three times her weight, while rarely seen Andean bears clamber 30 metres into the cloud forest canopy to find elusive fruit. Poison dart frogs use ingenious methods to keep their tadpoles safe, anacondas stalk capuchin monkeys, and swifts make death-defying flights through Igauzu Falls on the border between Argentina and Brazil
Seven Worlds, One Planet airs on RTE2 at 4:50 PM, Sunday 24 November. (Subtitles, repeat.)
