NATURE | Life in Death Valley | Preview | PBS

NATURE’S Life in Death Valley captures the simmering cauldron of Death Valley; the hottest, driest place in the US, epic in its beauty but punishing in its brutal extremes. In a scorched landscape marked by endless miles of salt flats, molten rock canyons, and lunar craters, survival is a miracle in itself.

Life in Death Valley stars a panorama of fascinating characters, both animal and human, such as the Devil's Hole pupfish, kangaroo rats, coyotes, roadrunners, and long-distance marathon runners. Watch Life in Death Valley on Sunday, September 2nd at 8 p.m. (ET) on PBS (check local listings). For more information, visit http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/deathvalley
