BBC The Living Planet 03of12 The Northern Forests

  • 6 years ago
David Attenborough examines the ways in which animals and plants adapt to their surroundings.

The Northern Forests
Begins in northern Norway, 500 kilometres north of the Arctic Circle. Here, there is only just enough light for the pine trees to survive, but it is extremely cold during the winter. Pine cone seeds provide one of the few foods available at this time of year, and large herbivores such as the moose must also rely on their fat reserves.
