00:17:26,713 --> 00:17:28,014
AS WINTER GRIPS THE
375
00:17:28,015 --> 00:17:29,315
MOUNTAINS TO THE NORTH,
376
00:17:29,349 --> 00:17:30,834
THE ALTIPLANO'S FLAMINGOS
377
00:17:30,835 --> 00:17:32,318
BEGIN TO ARRIVE IN
378
00:17:32,352 --> 00:17:36,189
PATAGONIA'S FOOTHILLS.
379
00:17:36,222 --> 00:17:38,324
- BUT THEY WILL ONLY TAKE
- SHELTER HERE TEMPORARILY.
380
00:17:38,358 --> 00:17:39,509
SOON, EVEN THESE
381
00:17:39,510 --> 00:17:40,660
LOW-ALTITUDE LAKES WILL
382
00:17:40,694 --> 00:17:42,112
FREEZE AND THE FLAMINGOS
383
00:17:42,113 --> 00:17:43,530
WILL BE FORCED ONWARDS
384
00:17:43,563 --> 00:17:46,659

ADAPTABLE PREDATOR
389
00:17:59,965 --> 00:18:01,147
STRUGGLES TO SURVIVE.
390
00:18:09,289 --> 00:18:10,540
A PUMA FAMILY HAS GROWN
391
00:18:10,541 --> 00:18:11,791
LONG COATS, WHICH PROVIDE
392
00:18:11,825 --> 00:18:14,261
INSULATION FROM THE

394
00:18:16,730 --> 00:18:17,948
PATAGONIA'S GUANACOS HAVE

00:18:17,949 --> 00:18:19,165
BEEN PUSHED WEST BY THE
396
00:18:19,199 --> 00:18:20,940
HARSH WIND, SO THE PUMAS
397
00:18:20,941 --> 00:18:22,391
MUST MAKE THE MOST OF
398
00:18:22,392 --> 00:18:24,170
SMALL OPPORTUNITIES.
399
00:18:27,474 --> 00:18:29,009
BUT CATCHING DINNER IN A
400
00:18:29,010 --> 00:18:30,543
BLIZZARD IS NO EASY TASK.
401
00:18:35,382 --> 00:18:36,667

00:18:36,668 --> 00:18:37,951
MELT, SURVIVAL WILL BE A
403
00:18:38,510 --> 00:18:42,589
DAILY BATTLE FOR ALL.
404
00:18:42,622 --> 00:18:44,157
- THE ANDES IS A MOUNTAIN

405
00:18:44,190 --> 00:18:46,192
DIVERSITY; IT FORMS SOUTH
406
00:18:46,193 --> 00:18:48,194
AMERICA'S BACKBONE AND IT

408
00:18:50,465 --> 00:18:52,699
HOSTILE HABITATS ON EARTH.
409
00:18:52,732 --> 00:18:54,184
BUT ON EVERY SLOPE, AT
410
00:18:54,185 --> 00:18:55,635
EVERY ALTITUDE, LIFE HAS
411
00:18:55,669 --> 00:18:57,737
FOUND A WAY TO EXIST.
