[MUSIC]
169
00:11:38,031 --> 00:11:41,766
DYLAN: THIS UNIQUE ADAPTATION
AND THOSE ACROBATIC SNOW DIVES
170
00:11:41,968 --> 00:11:45,036
PROVIDE A POWERFUL EDGE IN THE
BATTLE AGAINST HUNGER HERE IN
171
00:11:45,238 --> 00:11:46,237
YELLOWSTONE.

[MUSIC ENDS]
173
00:11:50,143 --> 00:11:53,277
DYLAN: COMING UP, THIS
UNDERWATER CREATURE CAN CREATE
174
00:11:53,279 --> 00:11:56,280
THE PERFECT DISGUISE IN A
NANOSECOND.
175
00:11:57,050 --> 00:12:00,685
AND WHICH NOCTURNAL RAPTOR IS
WORKING ROUND THE CLOCK?
176
00:12:01,087 --> 00:12:04,422
FIND OUT WHO WHEN EARTH ODYSSEY
COMES RIGHT BACK.
177
00:12:08,995 --> 00:12:11,730
NARRATOR: WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK
TO THE MORE YOU KNOW ON NBC.

[MUSIC]
181
00:12:30,049 --> 00:12:34,285
DYLAN: LIKE US, WILD ANIMALS ARE
FAMOUSLY PICKY ABOUT PROTECTING
182
00:12:34,487 --> 00:12:35,553
THEIR YOUNG.
183
00:12:35,555 --> 00:12:38,322
THE WARM WATERS OF THE
MEDITERRANEAN SEA MIGHT SEEM
184
00:12:38,324 --> 00:12:42,159
LIKE THE PERFECT NURSERY FOR
WATER BABIES, BUT EVEN HERE,
185
00:12:42,162 --> 00:12:43,728
RISKS ABOUND.
186
00:12:44,197 --> 00:12:47,499
ONE EXQUISITELY LOYAL
INVERTEBRATE MOTHER REFUSES
187
00:12:47,701 --> 00:12:50,602
TO LEAVE THE SURVIVAL OF HER
OFFSPRING TO CHANCE.
188
00:12:52,105 --> 00:12:56,374
JUST OFF THE COAST, AMONG MORE
THAN 200 SPECIES OF CORAL,

00:12:56,576 --> 00:12:59,977
LIES A BREEDING GROUND FOR
PERHAPS THE PLANET'S MOST
190
00:13:00,012 --> 00:13:01,379
DEVOTED PARENT.

[MUSIC]
192
00:13:08,521 --> 00:13:10,088
DYLAN: THE COMMON OCTOPUS.
193
00:13:10,556 --> 00:13:14,159
AT ABOUT 32 INCHES LONG, SHE'S
90% MUSCLE.
194
00:13:15,795 --> 00:13:18,963
SHE'S NOT ONLY STRONG, SHE'S
CONSIDERED TO BE AMONG THE MOST
195
00:13:19,165 --> 00:13:21,432
INTELLIGENT OF ALL
INVERTEBRATES.
196
00:13:23,703 --> 00:13:27,138
BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN THE COMMON
OCTOPUS ISN'T DARING.
197
00:13:28,007 --> 00:13:31,809
NORMALLY, THIS ACCOMPLISHED
SHAPE-SHIFTING PREDATOR ROAMS
198
00:13:31,844 --> 00:13:34,578
HER TERRITORY ON THE HUNT FOR
CRABS.
199
00:13:34,580 --> 00:13:37,949
BUT TODAY, SHE'S NOT STRAYING
FAR FROM HER DEN.
200
00:13:38,418 --> 00:13:41,319
DUSKY GROUPERS ARE PATROLLING
NEARBY.
201
00:13:41,755 --> 00:13:44,989
OCTOPUS AND SQUID MAKE UP THE
BULK OF THE FISH'S DIET.
202
00:13:46,226 --> 00:13:49,060
WHEN SHE'S THREATENED BY A
PREDATOR, THE QUICK-MOVING
203
00:13:49,062 --> 00:13:53,298
OCTOPUS CAN SQUIRT, INK, AND
ESCAPE AS A LAST RESORT.
204
00:13:54,133 --> 00:13:56,768
BUT RIGHT NOW, SHE CAN'T LEAVE.
205
00:14:03,476 --> 00:14:07,645
HIDDEN IN HER OCTOPUS'S DEN ARE
CLOSE TO HALF A MILLION EGGS.

[MUSIC CONTINUES]
209
00:14:30,470 --> 00:14:33,571
DYLAN: HIDING IS THE MOTHER
OCTOPUS'S ONLY OPTION.
210
00:14:40,213 --> 00:14:43,414
SHE HAS A VAST NETWORK OF
PIGMENT CELLS HELPING HER MATCH
211
00:14:43,616 --> 00:14:44,849
THE ROCKS AND CORAL.
212
00:14:50,656 --> 00:14:54,158
SHE CAN CHANGE HER SKIN COLOR
AND TEXTURE IN LESS THAN A
213
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,060
SECOND TO PROTECT HERSELF.
214
00:14:56,396 --> 00:14:58,263
IT'S THE PERFECT DISGUISE.
215
00:15:02,268 --> 00:15:04,736
BUT HER PARENTING DUTIES ARE FAR
FROM OVER.
216
00:15:09,743 --> 00:15:12,577
HER YOUNG WON'T SPAWN FOR
ANOTHER FOUR MONTHS.
217
00:15:13,980 --> 00:15:17,581
CONSTANTLY FLUSHING WATER FROM
HER FUNNEL, SHE KEEPS THE EGGS
218
00:15:17,583 --> 00:15:18,950
OXYGENATED.
219
00:15:20,086 --> 00:15:23,554
SHE WON'T LEAVE THE DEN OR EVEN
EAT UNTIL THEY HATCH.

221
00:15:35,535 --> 00:15:37,869
DYLAN: THIS WILL BE THE ONE AND
ONLY TIME THE COMMON OCTOPUS
222
00:15:37,937 --> 00:15:39,070
WILL REPRODUCE.
223
00:15:40,974 --> 00:15:42,974
[MUSIC CONTINUES]
224
00:15:49,248 --> 00:15:52,417
DYLAN: AND HER HATCHLING'S
SURVIVAL IS HER FINAL GOOD DEED.
225
00:15:53,653 --> 00:15:56,321
SHE'LL PASS AWAY NOT LONG AFTER
HER EGGS HATCH.
226
00:15:57,757 --> 00:16:00,257
SCIENTISTS ARE ONLY JUST
BEGINNING TO UNDERSTAND THESE
227
00:16:00,259 --> 00:16:03,795
SOLITARY BUT ALWAYS SURPRISING
CREATURES AND THEIR REMARKABLE
228
00:16:03,997 --> 00:16:05,029
BEHAVIORS.

00:16:08,601 --> 00:16:12,603
COMING UP, THIS SMALL BUT MIGHTY
BIRD OF PREY SEEMS TO ALWAYS BE

[MUSIC]
237
00:16:45,338 --> 00:16:48,706
DYLAN: ALL LIFE HAS TO ADAPT TO
THE EXTREMES OF THE SEASONS,
238
00:16:49,042 --> 00:16:51,209
INCLUDING THE OLIVE TREE.
239
00:16:51,877 --> 00:16:54,178
THIS PLANT IS A DROUGHT
SURVIVOR.
240
00:16:54,847 --> 00:16:58,549
THE OLIVE HAS SPECIALIZED ROOTS
TO ABSORB THE SPORADIC RAINFALL
241
00:16:58,751 --> 00:17:00,484
IN THE MEDITERRANEAN REGION.
242
00:17:00,820 --> 00:17:04,221
THE TREES HAVE BEEN CULTIVATED
FOR MILLENNIA WITH AN AVERAGE
243
00:17:04,256 --> 00:17:07,025
LIFESPAN OF 500 YEARS.
244
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,963
THE TRUNKS WARP AS THEY GROW,
CREATING PLENTY OF HIDING SPACES
245
00:17:11,965 --> 00:17:13,531
FOR OTHER SPECIES.
246
00:17:16,569 --> 00:17:18,102
LIKE THE LITTLE OWL.
247
00:17:21,574 --> 00:17:24,875
AT JUST EIGHT INCHES TALL, THIS
SPECIES LIVES UP TO ITS
248
00:17:25,077 --> 00:17:26,009
NAMESAKE.
249
00:17:26,345 --> 00:17:29,947
WITH YELLOW EYES AND WHITE
BROWS, THE LITTLE OWL IS A REAL
250
00:17:30,150 --> 00:17:30,748

[MUSIC]
252
00:17:37,991 --> 00:17:41,124
DYLAN: RIGHT NOW, SHE'S BUSY
KEEPING HER THREE CHICKS FED.
253
00:17:41,394 --> 00:17:44,394
AND AT THREE WEEKS OLD, THEY'RE
CONSTANTLY HUNGRY.
254
00:17:44,396 --> 00:17:46,297
[MUSIC CONTINUES]
255
00:17:55,108 --> 00:17:58,009
DYLAN: LITTLE OWLS TYPICALLY
PERCH UNTIL READY TO SWOOP
256
00:17:58,011 --> 00:17:59,210
DOWN ON THEIR PREY.
257
00:18:03,416 --> 00:18:05,983
LUCKILY, SHE'S NOT WORKING
ALONE.
258
00:18:06,986 --> 00:18:10,588
AT FIRST, THE MALE OWL BRINGS IN
FOOD TO THE BROOD, WHICH THE
259
00:18:10,790 --> 00:18:12,156
FEMALE THEN DOLES OUT.
260
00:18:15,294 --> 00:18:18,796
BUT AS THE CHICKS GROW AND
DEMAND MORE, IT TAKES TWO TO GET
261
00:18:18,998 --> 00:18:19,730
THE JOB DONE.
262
00:18:21,634 --> 00:18:25,470
LIKE A TAG TEAM, MOM AND DAD
HUNT ALL DAY AND NIGHT.
263
00:18:32,478 --> 00:18:36,180
FROM DUSK TO DAWN, IT'S A RACE
TO FATTEN THE LITTLE OWL CHICKS
264
00:18:36,382 --> 00:18:39,617
WITH INSECTS, EARTHWORMS AND
SMALL MAMMALS.
265
00:18:40,352 --> 00:18:43,587
AND A GOOD THING TOO, IN JUST
FOUR TO FIVE WEEKS, IT WILL BE
266
00:18:43,589 --> 00:18:47,191
TIME FOR THESE LITTLE WISE GUYS
TO HUNT ON THEIR OWN.
267
00:18:51,364 --> 00:18:56,199
FROM AN EIGHT-LEGGED OCTOPUS TO
A PETITE LITTLE OWL, ALL THE WAY
268
00:18:56,202 --> 00:19:00,738
TO A BEHEMOTH ELEPHANT, IT'S
INSPIRING TO SEE HOW OUR FELLOW
269
00:19:00,740 --> 00:19:04,742
EARTHLINGS COPE WITH CHALLENGES
LIKE FOOD SCARCITY, EXTREME
270
00:19:04,744 --> 00:19:07,879
WEATHER, AND THE BALANCE OF
PREDATOR AND PREY.
271
00:19:08,214 --> 00:19:08,946
THANKS FOR WATCHING.
272
00:19:08,948 --> 00:19:09,881
I'M DYLAN DREYER.
