The first programme in a series looking at strange animal behaviour reveals nature’s quirkiest movers and shakers. From dancing sea slugs to cartwheeling caterpillars, this is nature at its most weird and wonderful. In a series of magical sequences, crocodiles gallop, salamanders transform into wheels and bushbabies bounce like rubber balls. Lizards and frogs stage an extraordinary air show, the Mexican jumping bean reveals its fidgety secrets, lemurs pogo, and two-legged lizards hunt like dinosaurs. Using new filming techniques and some extraordinary special effects, this is nature as never seen before. Explore the wild ways animals move with a look at the mechanics of motion. Then delve into the interesting feeding habits of the natural world, including the chameleon, whose tongue is longer than its body.
