Wildlife biologist Randall Jay Moore first came across African circus elephants over 30 years ago near his home in Oregon. He successfully shipped a pair back to Africa and spent a year teaching them how to live on their own in the wild. Since then he has rescued African elephants from confinement all over the world.

Can you imagine a life without lions, cheetahs and leopards? Fifty years ago, there were more than half a million lions in Africa. Today there are fewer than 20,000. With illegal and legal hunting ever prevalent, a world without these majestic predators could soon become a reality. This series gives a new perspective on the problems suffered by the big cats in this changing era in Africa.

The islands of Malaysia are jewels of nature: ancient rainforests cascade down mountains into crystal clear seas. From silvered langurs caring for their bright orange babies and ants tending their herds of mealy bugs, to boisterous mudskippers and a noisy fruit bat roost - this is nature at its most extraordinary! Innovative photography allows us to explore the tiny world of insects, and the beautiful colours of the coral reefs.
