- Learn how dung beetles navigate by the stars, and trees communicate through their roots.
- Meet one of the strongest animals in the world: the puny peacock mantis shrimp.
- Pay your respects to a 44,000 year old shrub, float along flying rivers, and explore a garbage dump overseen by endangered storks.
- Examine old examples of bird song notation written on sheet music.
- Also, first person interviews: hear from a honey hunter and his avian partners, a scientist working to find the world's only ocean-dwelling insects, and an offshore radio DJ who is at the heart of the local fishing community.
