Whether it's their remarkable intelligence, incredible hunting prowess or surprisingly human qualities, some creatures capture our imagination and we're only just beginning to understand their true nature.With the latest filming technology, and contemporary style, ANIMAL gets under the skin of eight charismatic families. Through stunning visuals, immersive soundscapes and the latest scientific revelations we enter their worlds to discover what sets them apart. Following the story of a central character in each episode - including a mother lioness, a wild dog family, a kangaroo joey and a young giant pacific octopus - and meeting a range of other charismatic species, we enjoy an emotional, immersive and revelatory ride into some of the greatest wildernesses on Earth.
