In A Microscopic Meal of Algae and Krill, narrator Sir David Attenborough describes how, as the ice melts in Antarctica, the Southern Ocean becomes a robust feeding ground. Tiny krill fill the ocean, creating the perfect food source for crabeater seals which are ready to dive in and dine. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Frozen Planet, a series that shows a fragile world of beauty and hostility, where nature finds a way to survive and thrive in frigid conditions.
In Analyzing Convenience Foods, presenter Ruth Goodman explores the changes in United Kingdom cuisine when ready-made curries became available. Learn how microwave dinners changed the way British people ate, and how companies and home cooks worked together to make these meals delicious and authentic. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Inside the Factory, a series that takes viewers behind the scenes in the factories that make our favorite products.
In Competitive Strategies on the Coral Reef, narrator Sir David Attenborough describes how grouper and lionfish handle being predators in the same space in the coral reef. Learn how a pair of harlequin shrimp attempt to take a starfish for a meal. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Blue Planet, a definitive documentary series diving into the mysterious depths of the sea to discover the natural history of the world’s oceans and the rarely seen marine life that reside there.
In Puffin Parents, narrator Sir David Attenborough describes the danger that one puffin parent goes through to get a meal for his puffling. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Blue Planet II, a natural history series that explores the world's oceans, the animals that live in them, and the threats they face, using modern filming techniques and equipment to capture previously unseen areas of the ocean.
In Subtle Signs of Life on the Seafloor, narrator David Attenborough journeys over two miles beneath the ocean's surface, where the pressure is immense — 300 times greater than at sea level. Here, marine snow, tiny organic particles drifting from above, slowly settles on the seafloor over months. This vast, flat expanse stretches for thousands of miles, with subtle signs of life visible in the soft sediment. Sea urchins sift through the accumulating snow, while shrimp carefully pick out edible particles. The monkfish, nearly indistinguishable from the sand, patiently waits for prey to be lured toward its deceptive trap, sometimes going days between meals. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Planet Earth, a breathtaking documentary series that highlights the natural wonders of our planet.
In Mouse Lemurs Are Sneaky Nectar Thieves!, narrator Sir David Attenborough highlights lemurs enjoying a two-course meal in the branches of the baobab tree. First, the lemurs drink nectar meant for pollinating moths; then the lemurs attack the moths! This video is excerpted from BBC's Planet Earth, a breathtaking documentary series that highlights the natural wonders of our planet.
In Bison and Foxes Battle the Cold, narrator Sir David Attenborough takes us through the harsh conditions of the North American prairies, where bison use their strength to uncover food buried beneath the snow, and foxes rely on skill and precision to hunt for meals. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Planet Earth II, a breathtaking documentary series that highlights the natural wonders of our planet.

In A Leopard Hunts for Food in the Kalahari, narrator Sir David Attenborough describes how a one-year-old African leopard in the Kalahari Desert learns how to survive on his own by hunting for food. With limited food sources, the young leopard has to be clever and patient. He misses a few chances to catch food, but he keeps trying.

This video is excerpted from BBC’s Africa, a study of the landscape and wildlife of the world’s wildest continent, Africa.
