THOUSAND SQUARE MILES.
373
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:23,917
- IT'S THE SECOND LARGEST
- EXPANSE OF ICE IN THE
374
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:25,435
WORLD OUTSIDE OF THE NORTH
375
00:16:25,436 --> 00:16:26,953
AND SOUTH POLES.
376
00:16:35,462 --> 00:16:37,915
AS WINTER APPROACHES, MORE
377
00:16:37,916 --> 00:16:40,366
AND MORE STORMS BRING NEW
378
00:16:40,367 --> 00:16:42,402
- SNOWFALL TO FEED THE ICE
- FIELD.
379
00:16:46,373 --> 00:16:48,408
DAYS SHORTEN TO JUST SEVEN
380
00:16:48,409 --> 00:16:50,442
HOURS OF LIGHT.
381
00:16:50,443 --> 00:16:52,712
- IN THE SHADOW OF THE
- FREEZING PEAKS, FLAMINGOES
382
00:16:52,715 --> 00:16:57,549
FUEL UP WHILE THEY CAN.
383
00:16:57,550 --> 00:16:59,052
THEIR TONGUES PUMP UP AND
384
00:16:59,053 --> 00:17:00,552
DOWN SIX TIMES PER SECOND,
385
00:17:00,553 --> 00:17:02,922
- PUSHING WATER THROUGH
- THEIR BEAKS, ALLOWING THEM
386
00:17:02,925 --> 00:17:04,808
TO FILTER OUT ALGAE AND
387
00:17:04,809 --> 00:17:06,692
INVERTEBRATES.
388
00:17:06,693 --> 00:17:08,862
- SOON, THE LAKE WILL FREEZE
- OVER, AND THE FLAMINGOES
389
00:17:08,865 --> 00:17:10,380
WILL BE FORCED TO MOVE
390
00:17:10,381 --> 00:17:11,898
NORTH TOWARDS THE EQUATOR.
391
00:17:16,670 --> 00:17:18,172
NOT ALL ANIMALS CAN ESCAPE
392
00:17:18,173 --> 00:17:19,672
THE BRUTAL GRIP OF WINTER.
393
00:17:19,673 --> 00:17:21,191
THEY HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO
394
00:17:21,192 --> 00:17:22,709
SIT OUT THE SNOWS.
395
00:17:30,830 --> 00:17:32,180
THIS GUANACO'S DOUBLE COAT
396
00:17:32,181 --> 00:17:33,529
OF FUR HELPS IT COPE WITH
397
00:17:33,530 --> 00:17:35,921
THE COLD.
398
00:17:35,922 --> 00:17:37,340
A FINE DOWN LAYER CLOSE TO
399
00:17:37,341 --> 00:17:38,757
THE SKIN INSULATES AGAINST
400
00:17:38,758 --> 00:17:40,143
THE BITING WIND, AND
401
00:17:40,144 --> 00:17:41,527
COARSE OUTER HAIRS KEEP
402
00:17:41,528 --> 00:17:42,846
WET SNOW AWAY FROM ITS
403
00:17:42,847 --> 00:17:44,164
BODY.
404
00:17:46,633 --> 00:17:48,168
GUANACOS STICK TOGETHER IN
405
00:17:48,169 --> 00:17:49,702
HERDS, KEEPING A WARY EYE
406
00:17:49,703 --> 00:17:51,738
OUT FOR DANGER.
407
00:17:55,909 --> 00:17:57,944
- THE PUMA IS A CONSTANT
- THREAT.
408
00:18:01,681 --> 00:18:03,133
A GRAY FOX WILY ENOUGH TO
409
00:18:03,134 --> 00:18:04,583
FOLLOW THE HERDS MAKES A
410
00:18:04,584 --> 00:18:06,102
MEAGER LIVING PICKING UP
411
00:18:06,103 --> 00:18:07,620
SCRAPS FROM ANY PUMA KILL.
412
00:18:13,526 --> 00:18:15,045
BUT CLIMATE IS THE BIGGEST
413
00:18:15,046 --> 00:18:16,563
CHALLENGE HERE.
414
00:18:19,990 --> 00:18:21,401
- NOT ALL ANIMALS WILL
- SURVIVE THE FIVE LONG
415
00:18:21,404 --> 00:18:23,436
MONTHS OF WINTER.
416
00:18:29,809 --> 00:18:30,977
GUANACOS RECYCLE EACH
417
00:18:30,978 --> 00:18:32,144
MOUTHFUL OF FOOD,
418
00:18:32,145 --> 00:18:33,663
EXTRACTING EVERY LAST
419
00:18:33,664 --> 00:18:35,181
NUTRIENT AVAILABLE.
420
00:18:39,352 --> 00:18:40,871
A PUMA IS DESPERATELY
421
00:18:40,872 --> 00:18:42,389
HUNGRY, BUT THE GUANACOS
422
00:18:44,758 --> 00:18:48,761
ARE ON HIGH ALERT.
423
00:18:48,762 --> 00:18:50,797
- AND WITHOUT THE ELEMENT OF
- SURPRISE, THE PUMA HAS
424
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:52,149
LITTLE CHANCE OF MAKING A
425
00:18:52,150 --> 00:18:53,500
KILL.
426
00:19:04,444 --> 00:19:05,787
A HARE IS HARDLY MORE THAN
427
00:19:05,788 --> 00:19:07,129
A MOUTHFUL, BUT IN THESE
428
00:19:07,130 --> 00:19:08,645
LEAN TIMES, IT CAN BE THE
429
00:19:08,646 --> 00:19:10,159
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIFE
430
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:11,685
AND DEATH.
431
00:19:28,768 --> 00:19:30,203
BUT THIS TIME, THE HARE
432
00:19:30,204 --> 00:19:31,637
HAS HOPPED AWAY TO SAFER
433
00:19:31,638 --> 00:19:33,739
GROUNDS.
434
00:19:33,740 --> 00:19:36,209
- THANKS FOR JOINING US ON
- THIS LOOK BACK AT THE EPIC
435
00:19:36,212 --> 00:19:37,694
MOUNTAINS OF PATAGONIA AND
436
00:19:37,695 --> 00:19:39,178
THE HIMALAYAS.
437
00:19:39,179 --> 00:19:40,514
ALTHOUGH WORLDS APART,
438
00:19:40,515 --> 00:19:41,847
THESE TWO LARGER THAN LIFE
439
00:19:41,848 --> 00:19:43,517
REGIONS SHARE THE DISTINCT
440
00:19:43,518 --> 00:19:45,184
QUALITY OF DIVERSITY THAT
441
00:19:45,185 --> 00:19:46,353
MAKES OUR PLANET SO
442
00:19:46,354 --> 00:19:47,519
SPECIAL.
443
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:48,989
WE'LL SEE YOU NEXT TIME ON
444
00:19:48,990 --> 00:19:50,456
"EARTH ODYSSEY".
