Summary:

Go beyond Thailand's beaches. Wild Thailand reveals a sacred kingdom of awe-inspiring beauty. It takes in towering limestone cliffs, paddy fields, hidden temples and the teeming city of Bangkok, before visiting the forests of the north. Each episode is packed with wildlife. While full moon parties get underway on the beaches of Ko Pha-Ngan, a dazzling light show takes place on the island's reefs. In Bangkok, we meet the animals that have made this urban environment their home. And a visit to the north is like stepping back in time -- ancient tribes practice time-honoured traditions and tigers still stalk the forests. Wild Thailand reveals a land that is worlds away from the familiar tourist trails. Southern Thailand is the Thailand we think we all know. It is a place of both spectacular natural beauty and of wild parties, but behind this well-known image is also a place where spirituality pervades every bit of life. For the animals that live here, this is a natural wonderland.
