Wilderness with Simon Reeve
Papua New Guinea
Season 2 Episode 1 of 4
Simon return to travel through more of the most remote landscapes on Earth, beginning by exploring Papua New Guinea's tropical rainforest in search of the tenkile tree kangaroo, one of the world's rarest animals. Covering just a tiny fraction of the planet's land surface, tropical rainforests hold more than half of the world's plant and animal species, and few places rival New Guinea for sheer diversity. The island is home to vast wilderness areas that remain little known to science, a lost world with countless species still undiscovered
Wilderness with Simon Reeve airs on BBC Two England at 9:00 PM, Sunday 20 September. (New, series, subtitles, audio description.)
