Summary
Travel to the ends of the Earth to experience the planet's most extreme seasons. In the Arctic, witness polar bears searching for mates, while humpback whales join the largest gathering of seabirds on Earth to feast in rich Alaskan waters. At the other end of the planet, penguins struggle to escape a hungry sea lion, and teams of hunting orcas work collaboratively to hunt their prey. While the polar ends of the world often seem bleak, violent, and inhospitable, life always finds a way to adapt.
