From the hard struggle for existence on the icy peaks of the Andes to the sheer abundance of life in the Amazon Basin, Lost Worlds is a grand introduction to South America. It explores how and why such an odd collection of wildlife oddities have come to live on the same continent. A combination of unique creatures and strange behaviour, filmed amongst stunning scenery, introduces this wild continent of extremes. |
