Peter gathers his team of miners and investors together for a pre-expedition briefing in Durban, South Africa. After a two day journey they reach the mountain kingdom of Lesotho. They arrive at the valley where they will be based, but only after a long and treacherous drive, towing the machinery down dangerous dirt roads. Finding a route to the river so they can setup equipment and mine is not easy. There are problems with the pumps and classifiers, and taking them off the trailers is a quick fix, but this compromises the mobility and safety of the operation. The equipment supplier has not taken the altitude into consideration, and the machinery will not work at full capacity. The team is concerned by Warren's recklessness as he almost rolls the TLB, while prepping the road to a new mining site. There is a snowfall, but work continues. Don is concerned that the river will flood with the snowmelt, and after they wrap for the day, the water levels rise and the machines are under threat. After a mad, dangerous scramble in the dark the equipment is saved, but it has been a close call. All the equipment was almost lost before they even had a chance to mine properly. After a few days of working at the initial site, the first bags are filled with concentrate but no diamonds are found. The team is upbeat and very excited to get set up at the hotspot in the next valley. The hard work of building roads and river crossings begins.

Turtles that make epic journeys to reproduce. The most abundant sea turtle in the world, Olive Ridleys' have extraordinary nesting habits. These small turtles migrate massive distances between their oceanic feeding grounds and the shores that draw them back to mate, and then to nest. Sooty Tern - Sea birds that don't come to land for years. Like the turtle, once it has left land for the first time, a young Sooty Tern may not go back for years, spending all its time in the ocean skies until it is time for it to breed. Soaring on outstretched wings, these elegant seabirds feed almost entirely on the fish driven to the surface by the hunters below. Australian Pelicans - Water birds that follow ephemeral rivers. Pelicans – these quirky, comical, big billed birds are usually thought of as spending all their time around coasts and harbors. They are widespread in Australia's lakes, rivers, billabongs and estuaries – or other waterway with enough food for their fish-loving lifestyle. The whales and whale sharks that roam the great oceans. Some of the greatest migratory animals on earth are those that live in its waters and traverse its great oceans.

Able to shoot down their prey with targeted jet propelled water darts the archer fish is bulls-eye accurate. The ambushing Portia. A mere centimeter in length, the Portia spider is one of nature's most capable and intelligent hunters. A formidable serial killer of other spiders, Portia's are fast to learn and quick to adapt. The harpooning cone shell. In an ocean full of fast moving and agile fish, those that hunt them need sure fire methods of capture. So it is perhaps surprising that one of their most deadly adversaries, is a very slow moving snail. Weapon swinging Bolas Spiders. As the day comes to and darkness sets in, one of the world's most deceptive hunters begins her nightly rituals. Dangling from the silken trapeze line she has just laid the female Bolas Spider spins a short silken thread punctuated with tiny globules and ending in one huge sticky silken bolas. Slave Making Ants. Running over almost every corner of the earth are millions and millions of tiny worker ants. Yet for some ant species, most of the workers are not their own blood. These are the slave makers trap laying Ant Lions. Throughout the sandy soils that blanket the earth there are hundreds of species of ants making a living on the land they find themselves. Yet there is one insect whose larvae makes a living on them – the one and a half centimeter, cunning, powerful, ferocious and often inconspicuous Ant lion Parasitic Pompilid wasps In the dunes of the Namib Desert is a little wasp that seeks out a very certain type of prey.

The cheetah is a highly specialised animal. It excels at one thing alone, running down high-speed prey faster than any other mammal on earth.But this specialisation comes at a cost.

Outside of pursuing prey, how effective is this animal when compared to the other apex predators of the savannah?Alongside lions, leopards, vultures and hyenas how does the cheetah fit into the efficient cogs of the savannah system? Can it compete, or is it an outsider, cornered by it's own specialisation?The primary character in the story is a cheetah mother, who goes about her daily life, hunting for her three cubs. Her trials and tribulations highlight the refined hunting system of the cheetah, but they also shed light on her weaknesses, and the lack of robustness in the species itself.

After constructing dirt roads and river crossings, access to the new mining site is completed. Warren and Konrad are first to the reach the hotspot and setup in prime position, but the equipment is not running properly. There is a confrontation between Gary and Peter on the way to the site about Gary's reckless driving. The divers start to pump the river bank. The classifiers and jig are processing concentrate: bags are slowly being filled. However, there are constant breakdowns and stoppages as the team try to find a way to get the pumps primed and running at full power. They are desperately searching for solutions and have taken to repairing and modifying the equipment on site. This is starting to affect productivity and morale. A new plan is hatched to solve the pump problems: get larger and more powerful pumps. The divers are dispatched to fetch these from South Africa, but they are much to heavy for the trailers used to tow them. The trip back over the mountain passes is made even more dangerous because of the overloaded trailers. The new pumps are set up the next day, but they come with problems of their own. Jan, the equipment supplier, returns to find a solution to the pumping dilemma. He doesn't believe the machines can work at altitude. There is a confrontation between Jan and the miners. They take him to task about his lack of foresight and research. Warren has a close call when he breathes poisonous fumes while diving. Luckily Gary notices and pulls him from the water.

More than 50 countries now possess weapons based on depleted uranium (DU). Experimentation has been rife, and the consequences for civilians and the military alike have been dramatic. This investigation compares and contrasts the arguments of those who defend and attack a technology that is highly toxic. For 20 years, scientists, doctors, veterans and activists have denounced the use of DU. Against them are the arms industry lobbyists and nuclear authorities who continue to minimise the risks. Through archive documents, interviews and in situ investigations, accompanied by key witnesses (victims, experts...) we aim to present a clearer picture of the issues and stakes linked to the use of DU. Quick-paced, with a sense of urgency, the film underlines the essential background and conflicting viewpoints, enabling viewers to make up their own minds about a subject that concerns us all.

Predator versus prey: in this instalment we analyze three attack-escape scenarios involving bird predators and their prey. One is the climbing flight escape, another is horizontal speeding, and thirdly, there is turning and diving to avoid capture. Predator and prey attack-escape behaviour is another outcome of the evolutionary arms race. There is something about birds of prey that make us pay attention - maybe it is the inherent fear we all have that one will attack us - or perhaps it is just because they are seldom seen by most westerners. Regardless, birds of prey are fascinating and in this episode we examine of some of the largest, mightiest and most spectacular raptors from around the world. We'll watch with fascination the Eagle, a large bird of prey that is a skilled hunter and highly efficient killer. These elegant predators do their best work in large open spaces, where they can fly high and see for miles and miles. Meanwhile, the fastest living animal on land, sea or sky is also a bird of prey. The peregrine falcon can be found from the arctic to the tropics, and for centuries has been a symbol of prestige. At the other end of the scale is a bird that strips a carcass to down to its skeleton in search of a meal. The presence of a vulture is often seen as a sign of impending doom. But it's a case of whatever gets you through: the vulture too, is just trying to stay one step ahead, in the race of life.

Almost all animals living in the sea are predators - from small fish to great white sharks and starfish to giant squid. Their bodies have been designed and built to capture prey and avoid becoming prey themselves. Raiders of the Underwater Universe have evolved to become among the more efficient war machines of our planet. There are "predators lurking" as stone fish, cleverly disguising themselves to wait for unsuspecting prey which wander too close. In an episode that illustrates the Race of Life in an underwater world of dangerous predators with razor-sharp teeth, we will see sharks, barracuda and moray eels go about their grisly business. Underwater predators have adapted some fairly extreme measures to hunt and to survive. The fish of the reef need to be fast to escape the barracuda, with its lightning speed and pincushion teeth. And stay on the alert when they swim near the lairs of the moray eel, a large and lethal creature of perhaps surprising grace and beauty. They may be ambushed by the also elegant - but deadly – lionfish. The knitting needle spines of the lionfish are capable of injecting deadly venom. Or if equally unlucky, prey can be sucked into the huge mouth of a stonefish. With so many hungry mouths to feed, it's a jungle down there.

Under the ocean, it's survival of the fittest… and fastest. Stonefish vacuum food in

360° GEO- Report visits the Nenets, the last true nomads on earth, on their remote Russian peninsula. Every August, on the Russian polar peninsula of Yamal, children of reindeer shepherds await a helicopter that will bring them back to school after the summer holidays. For the main part of the year, 600 nomad children from the indigenous people of the Nenet live and learn separated from their parents. Up until now, their home Yamal was an of Russia that was far from any semblance of civilization- until an enormous gas pool was discovered beneath the tundra. Now, destroyed nature and gigantic industrial plants are a common sight along the nomad's track - but this industrial development is also offering new opportunities to their children.

More than 50 countries now possess weapons based on depleted uranium (DU). Experimentation has been rife, and the consequences for civilians and the military alike have been dramatic. This investigation compares and contrasts the arguments of those who defend and attack a technology that is highly toxic. For 20 years, scientists, doctors, veterans and activists have denounced the use of DU. Against them are the arms industry lobbyists and nuclear authorities who continue to minimise the risks. Through archive documents, interviews and in situ investigations, accompanied by key witnesses (victims, experts...) we aim to present a clearer picture of the issues and stakes linked to the use of DU. Quick-paced, with a sense of urgency, the film underlines the essential background and conflicting viewpoints, enabling viewers to make up their own minds about a subject that concerns us all.

After the fall of the soviet union many countries remained in dispute in the early nineties despite eastern Europe's independence. In 1994 a bitter conflict broke out between the forces of the Chechnen independence movement and the Russian regular army. Despite overwhelming manpower, weaponry and air support, the Russian forces were unable to establish effective permanent control over the mountainous area due to many successful Chechen guerrilla raids. Improvised Explosive Devices were one of the most effective methods employed in these disastrous raids and were the back drop to many Close Quarter Battle scenarios exchanged between the two sides.

These works haunt the nightmares of their owners, and occupy the days of hundreds of police officers across the world, as well as those of a handful of private agencies; no country or museum of importance can claim to have been spared.

Very quick intro to the history of the course and the make up of the influx of new students as well as a look at some of the lecturers and their characters. Darting practice and drug theory: Students practice with dart guns from certain distances and learn the theory of dangerous drugs. The next step is learning to dart from a helicopter. A moving target is towed by a vehicle, and students have 1 dart to prove their accuracy. Darting practice on donkeys: 3 teams are formed and they have 3 donkeys to dart and check all vital signs. Darting 2 young antelope: 2 students are chosen to dart a young Rhone antelope and young Sable needing medical attention.

A student darter is selected to dart from the helicopter and soon a suitable giraffe is located. The dart location is perfect and the giraffe begins to slow down as the rest of the team jump into action. The giraffe becomes more of a challenge as it wrestles with the rope and breaks free. The drugs eventually take full effect and the giraffe is subdued. The team carry out all the checkups, take samples and reverse the drug in good time to see it run off in good health. The vet lecturers give the debrief and conclude with all the positives and negatives.

There are many fine examples of evolutionary history in the natural world. Animals adapt through a series of small, random mutations and usually do so in order to compete more effectively for food, water and space. Animals with certain adaptations are more likely to be stronger and therefore produce more young. Crocodiles are certainly of an ancient lineage, they are believed to be 200 million years old, whereas dinosaurs became extinct 64 million years ago. Crocodiles have an incredible ability to adapt and survive in the Race of Life. They have a very slow metabolism, and can go up to a year with no food. They also have a 4 chamber heart that helps them control their temperature, and lungs that allow them to hold their breath underwater for up to 2 hours. Sharks have gone through the process of adaptation and evolutionary experimentation as well. The modern descendants of ancient sharks have incorporated many of the successful traits of the past. They have changed over time, but the changes have not been too extreme, only nature perfecting an originally near perfect design. Whales are an amazing species that have evolved from land dwelling creatures millions of years ago to the marine mammals we know today. Over the course of their evolution whales have developed echolocation, thick layers of blubber, modified lungs, better hearing and larger arteries among other things to ensure their survival and prosperity.

Deserts are dry. Deserts are extreme. True deserts get less than 18 cm of rain per year. True deserts have very few plants. Semi-desert habitats have enough rainfall to support more plant and animal life. Either way, deserts are not easy places for animals to live. Desert animals have evolved to handle the desert's heat and lack of water. They have adapted their bodies and behaviors to the desert climate. Most can survive on small amounts of water and many get all of their water from their food. Some drink maybe once a week and travel considerable distances to find isolated waterholes and springs. Large animals seek shade during the hottest part of the day. Some animals dig a hollow depression into the ground and lie in the cooler soil while others are nocturnal. Many reptiles and other animals protect themselves from the extreme temperature by spending their time in burrows. The scorpion is one of the most ancient creatures on earth, in existence since life first crawled out of the sea. One look and you can see why they're born survivors. Not only are their bodies armoured against the desert heat - and other predators - but all scorpions have pincers at the front and a poisonous sting at the end of their tail. Rattlesnakes can be two meters long. They're fast, tough and with a deadly venom, making them one of the most dangerous snakes in the world. But nobody seems to have told the Roadrunner, who regard rattlesnakes as quite suitable prey.

3 wild dog packs are introduced, Pungwe, Mapura and Splinters pack. We see 16 Pungwe pups emerge for the first time out of their den site.

Another hunt is recorded by the motorbike and filming drone crew.

Disasters in the air and misfortunes at sea grab our attention because of the unusually large number of fatalities involved. But it's not even necessary to leave dry land for a terrible disaster to happen. Rail journeys and even just getting in your car can be fraught with disaster. That's the focus for this instalment of Desperate Hours - road and rail disasters. We will examine the causes of such accidents, be that the powers of nature or human folly. We are about to explore the worst of the worst destructive events from an ordinary day on Nigerian roads to a disastrous display of human error in Santiago de Compostella when the driver of a loaded passenger train went about 115 km/h over the established speed limit and drove his train straight into a wall. So buckle up; you're in for a bumpy ride…
