Parenthood
Freshwater
Season 1 Episode 4 of 5
David Attenborough narrates footage of how freshwater-dwelling animals must adapt fast to raise their young, especially as climate change makes their environment harder to predict. The episode features footage of elephants in drought-ridden Kenya, turtles in the Brazilian Amazon trying to time laying their eggs with the rain season, and a Namaqua sandgrouse in the Namibian desert choosing his moment to gather water for his chicks
Parenthood airs on BBC One Yorkshire at 7:10 PM, Sunday 24 August. (Subtitles, new.)
