Villi Venäjä - Kausi 1 (2008)

Few countries are home to such extraordinary mammals: the Amur tiger is the world’s largest cat; the polar bear is the world’s largest land predator; massive brown bears scour the rivers in search of salmon. The Russian skies are home to the world’s largest owl and majestic eagles. In the freezing northern waters, walruses and Beluga whales hunt for fish. It also provides a refuge for some incredible rare species – including the beautiful and elusive Amur leopard. Through unprecedented access we showcase the spectacle that is Wild Russia. From east to west, via mountains, volcanoes, deserts, lakes and Arctic ice, this breathtaking six-part series uses stunning cinematography to chart the dazzling natural wonders of this vast country.
