New Zealand: Earth's Mythical Islands
Wild Extremes
Season 1 Episode 2 of 3
Sam Neill narrates the story of some of New Zealand's wildest places, home to hyper-intelligent parrots, snails with teeth, and constellations of glow-worms. In these often inhospitable locations, any creature hoping to survive must resort to radical techniques, none more so than on the South Island, which lies toward Antarctica and is home to the rapidly rising peaks of the Southern Alps
