Season 1 Episode 01 "Challenges of Life" In nature, living long enough to breed is a monumental struggle. Many animals and plants go to extremes to give themselves a chance.
Three brother cheetahs uniquely band together to bring down a huge ostrich. Aerial photography reveals how bottle-nosed dolphins trap fish in a ring of mud, and time-lapse cameras show how the Venus flytrap ensnares insect victims. While the strawberry frog carries a tadpole high into a tree and drops it in a water-filled bromeliad. The frog must climb back from the ground every day to feed it.
Animals and plants use a variety of strategies to survive and compete with each other; among those examined are mating rituals, cooperative hunting and primitive tool usage.
