The Hunt

The Hunt, the new landmark BBC series, captures the dramatic encounters of predator and prey in an entirely new light. Featuring the extraordinary strategies of a huge range of predators, from cheetahs and African wild dogs to killer whales and polar bears, these images and stories will revolutionise what you thought you knew about life in the wild.

Whether through speed, stamina or complex subterfuge, each creature's strategy is honed to its environment - and remarkable adaptations mean that the hunted often can, and do, outwit their hunters. It's a life-or-death duel where each animal's skills are stretched to the very limit.

From the producers of Frozen Planet and Planet Earth, ¬The Hunt reveals in astonishing detail the most surprising and significant events in the natural world.
