Human Planet

Human Planet is the 8 part Discovery Channel series which looks at the human species and their relationship with the natural world. The series from the makers of Planet Earth and Life reveals the amazing adaptations of humans around the world. We see people around the globe in extremely different environments, and learn about the astounding adaptation and way of life of these people. Viewers see amazing people overcoming the elements and obstacles, surviving and thriving in sometimes difficult elements and locations. Human Planet explores life in the oceans, in the furnaces of deserts, freezing areas of Earth, the trees of the jungles, the thin air of mountain regions, the bustle of urban cities and more. From fishing with dolphins to herding camel in the Gobi Desert, hunting Narwhals in Greenland, gathering honey in the Congo Jungle, controlling avalanches in the Swiss Alps, catching rats in New York City, and going head to head with lions in Kenya, we follow along as these people live very different lives in these varied environments.
