A diverse cast of animals adjust to life in the newest and fastest changing habitat on the planet -- cities -- as more and more wild animals make their home in urban areas. "Wild Metropolis" explores footage of these animals, and how they've applied their natural born skills and abilities to create their homes while also making great physical and behavioral adaptations. Narrated by Graham Vick, a wide range of species is featured, including humpback whales, megabats, penguins and Burmese pythons.Natural Born Hustlers
2016
When it comes to the most important goals in the animal kingdom, learning how to survive and raising the next generation are right at the top of the list. This may seem clear cut, but the lengths to which some animals go to achieve these objectives can often be downright devious. To illustrate the point, we see a shady squirrel, double-crossing cuttlefish, a conniving orchid mantis and a deceitful bird called a drongo use mimicry, disguise, and trickery to get what they want. Throughout the episodes, scientists studying animal con artists pull back the curtain on their deceptions, using their latest research to demonstrate how each of them hustles their mark. This three-part series reveals the modus operandi of some of nature’s greatest animal con artists as they outwit predators, line up their next meal, and get the girl.Creative Living with Sheryl Borden
