Tasked with observing and protecting the islands' amazing wildlife, the scientists will track and study the animals and plants that are unique to this incredible archipelago.

To get the job done they will climb volcanoes, get sneezed on by marine iguanas, watch dancing birds, launch a deep-diving submersible and explore the dazzling underwater wonders of Galápagos.

Follow the team as they monitor colonies of penguins, unlock the secrets of how orcas communicate and observe a colossal squid deep underwater. Along the way, the team will study ancient ice cores, monitor huge melting glaciers and discover how Antarctica is changing. By studying the warming climate, our scientists will discover what this will mean for the future of our planet.
