Summary:
EVOLUTION EARTH embarks on a global expedition to reveal the animals keeping pace with a planet changing at superspeed. Heading out across the globe to distant wilds and modern urban environments, five episodes track how animals are moving, using ingenuity to adapt their behaviour, and even evolving in unexpected ways. Episode 3: In the hottest extremes, species are going to extraordinary lengths to survive. From the Sahara Desert to the Australian outback, animals are providing new clues about our changing planet and what it will mean for the future of our heating world. Chimps are living in caves, camels are drinking salt water and zebra finches are singing to their eggs to make their chicks smaller.
