Threatened by the guns of Southern Africa's farmers, black-backed jackals have found shelter in a new but arid area, Namibia's Skeleton Coast.

The "gravity" nightmare is becoming a reality: tons of rocket and satellite parts have been scattered into space over the past 60 years. The fragments collide with other objects, producing more and more scrap - a proliferation that has long since gotten out of control and poses an acute danger to rocket launches and space stations.

The epic story of the life of a volcano, capable of both causing the extinction of all things and helping the evolution of species, over 60 million years.

They have bones, no teeth and can grow up to 17 meters long: Oarfish. As the longest bony fish in the world resembles a silver reptile, it is surrounded by various legends of sea serpents and sea monsters. The documentary shows the rarely seen sea creatures in their natural environment. For two years, divers filmed the fascinating creatures from the deep sea around 60 kilometers off the coast of the Côte d'Azur.

Amidst the pristine but freezing waters surrounding the white continent, a unique insight into the mysterious daily lives of Leopard Seals and discover some never-before-filmed behaviors of these highly intelligent predators. "Killer Seals" will reveal how Leopard Seals hunt penguins underwater or on land, charging unwary trespassers on the ice, be they penguin or human!

Scientists discover through DNA that giant flightless birds like Madagascar's Elephant Birds & New Zealand's Moas didn't reach islands via continental drift as thought, but have a surprising evolutionary story of how they got there.

Faced with the risk of collision with the Earth, space agencies are refining their observations on the course of asteroids in our galaxy. A documented state of the art of the current programs.

Soon after we meet Manyari, the queen of her pride, she does something both unusual and bold: She leaves the sanctuary of the clan with her young cubs and takes them on a dangerous odyssey. She makes a bid to escape because two young bloods are sniffing around, and if they take over the pride, they will kill her cubs

The nightmare dramatized in the movie "Gravity" is now a sad reality: fragments of missiles or satellites that threaten to damage and destroy our space infrastructure. With the amount of debris in space rising over the past two decades, the danger keeps getting worse. To clean up the mess, engineers are now devising innovative schemes using magnetic nets, lasers, and robotic trash collectors.

Can any of those who claim homosexuality is "unnatural" explain this beastly behaviour?

Around the Crozet Islands, here is the incredible odyssey of a family of Sperm Whales facing rapid changes in their environment. From the stormy surface to the eternal darkness of the abyss, several generations of these deep-sea divers encounter men and their "toys": harpoons of yesterday, and fishing lines of today. Once victim of whale hunting, now accused of stealing fish, a sperm whale shares its private life with us.

Compiling footage from around the globe, a look into the humor and danger of filming wild animals.

A biographical documentary about the Belgian free-diver Fred Buyle and his art of silent diving.

The life of a young female African lynx who lands in Cape Town after a long journey, learning to survive on the outskirts of the city among abandoned buildings, golf courses, and even elegant villas.

The grey seal has always been adept at hunting fast, elusive prey. As one of Europe's largest predators, the decline of fish stocks and increase in competition, as well as legal seal hunting, has changed their entire world--and their behavior. Recent improvements in annual surveys and animal tagging have revealed precious information about where grey seals go when they leave the coast and how they spend their lives. Their name traditionally conjures up images of adorable pups and clownish behavior, but this film uncovers another side to these predators.

Scientific buoys immersed deep in the sea off the French Riviera reveal the secrets of the giant oarfish: the creature most likely to be behind the myth of the Sea Serpent.

During four years of shooting in the icy waters that surround the volcanic archipelago of the Crozet Islands, we have followed the trial and tribulations of Delphine, a young female adolescent killer whale. Living and growing within her family group she gradually learns how to find her bearings, how to hunt king penguins or Minke rorquals and how to get stranded in order to catch sea elephants. Directed by Bertrand Loyer.

A journey in the footsteps of the birds and marine mammals of the French Southern and Antarctic Lands: the populations of the islands on the edge of the Southern Ocean subject to strange fluctuations, closely studied by researchers. In the isolated archipelagos of Crozet and Kerguelen, king penguins, albatrosses, and petrels face winds and storms every year to breed. Elephant seals, fur seals and orcas also live there. But some populations are declining, sometimes abruptly and unexplained. For over sixty years, scientists have been trying to unravel this mystery through their observations and increasingly sophisticated technologies. Their discoveries reveal astonishing behaviors and the threats facing these survivors of the extreme south. A journey into the heart of the wind and waves, where science and exploration intertwine to tell the story of these extraordinary birds and marine mammals.

This 11 episode series questions the separation that our cultures or religions have tried to establish between human beings and animals.

Every day, hundreds of asteroids fall towards Earth. Small asteroids cause no harm, but large asteroids can have major consequences. There is no doubt that a killer asteroid will one day cross paths with the Earth… and that we will need to be ready to act. Knowing this threat is coming, the world's space agencies have set up specialist departments for detecting and exploring asteroids. For the first time in history, they are even planning on changing an asteroid’s orbit to protect the planet. Will we be able to avoid global catastrophe?
