A glimpse at the rarely seen South American wilderness, home to a range of creatures from terrain as varied as the Andes to Cape Horn. Cameras reveal the secret lives of pumas and hummingbirds, soar with condors over glacial peaks and explore monkey puzzle forests dating back to the time of the dinosaurs. The extreme kayakers who gain thrills and excitement from traversing the area's raging waterfalls are observed, as are the native cowboys, known as gauchos, as they round up wild horses. Narrated by Santiago Cabrera
