Mammals and birds aren't meant to live in the extreme cold, but a handful of species have turned the inhospitable north into their homes and carved a niche in one of the most challenging ecosystems on Earth. In this documentary, narrated by wildlife expert Danielle Dufault, we take a deep look at five species of five different families as they prepare for the lean winter months. By exploring the lives and evolutionary adaptations of these fantastic animals, viewers will gain a greater understanding of the precarious living conditions and a broader picture of their ecosystems, including the other plants and animals that support their existence. The documentary takes viewers across the northern fringes of Asia, Europe, and North America and aims to inspire the audience to help protect the fragile arctic and subarctic ecosystems. Climate change disproportionately impacts polar regions, and we might lose these evolutionary marvels within our lifetimes.
