00:02There is a sea area whose scenery is not only comparable to
00:04And it always brings surprises to people.
00:06Unexpected encounters with marine life
00:09A magical island teeming with ferocious beasts
00:11Polar coastlines coexist with sandy deserts
00:15Everything is in the Baltic Sea
00:20The beaches on Denmark's Baltic Sea side are always very lively.
00:23Various tour groups will be here.
00:27Individual tourists who came because of its reputation
00:31There are also some unusual seaside residents.
00:50In this episode, we will start from northern Denmark.
00:53Passing through the Dals Peninsula and the Culls
00:55Arriving at the endless Latvian beach
01:07This is the tranquil Baltic Sea.
01:16In the eyes of many people
01:17The Baltic Sea may not be worthy of being called a sea.
01:19But this place is not lacking in stormy waves.
01:23The Baltic Sea is characterized by its unique geographical location.
01:25Indeed, it has many unique features that distinguish it from other oceans.
01:29The Baltic Sea is an inland sea.
01:31The coldness of the sea gradually decreases from west to northeast.
01:39Since the end of the last ice age
01:40The newly formed Baltic Sea
01:42It is a very young ocean
01:51To this day
01:52The wind and waves continue to shape the coastline here.
02:03The fine sand carried by the sea breeze comes from ancient cliff fragments.
02:11The ever-accumulating sand dunes
02:17And the narrow sandbars formed by ocean currents
02:20It is a unique landscape in the western and southern Baltic Seas.
02:25Near Skahn, Denmark's northernmost town
02:28There is such a special beach.
02:30It stretches all the way to the sea.
02:32The Skagerrak Strait was formed.
02:34Boundary line with the Kattegat Strait
02:40The North Sea and the Baltic Sea meet once again.
02:53Harbor seals like to come here for a short rest.
02:57Tourists also greatly appreciate this beach between the ocean.
03:00Therefore, Hong Kong seals often choose to lay their eggs elsewhere.
03:14Because it is connected to Beihai
03:16The salinity of the seawater here is higher.
03:18Clear seawater and seaweed landscape
03:35The Kattegat Strait is located between Denmark and Sweden.
03:38In its center lies an island called Anholt.
03:41For hundreds of years
03:41Lighthouse on Anholt Island
03:43He has been guiding the ships coming and going.
03:48Morten Abideström is the manager on Anholt Island.
03:52This is an ideal spot for observing harbor seals.
03:57even so
03:58It also needs to access the telescope
04:04Long-standing hunting activities
04:06These harbor seals are afraid of humans.
04:09This is also why they chose the eastern beach of Anholt Island.
04:11Reasons for settlement
04:14Hong Kong seal mothers typically give birth to one pup after a healthy pregnancy.
04:17Newborn Hong Kong seal pups weigh around ten kilograms.
04:27Hong Kong seal mothers typically experience a lactation period of about five weeks.
04:31The fat content of seal milk in Hong Kong is around 45%.
04:34It has many times the fat content of milk.
04:37This is truly a super-energizing drink!
04:42Flocks of birds were attracted.
04:44The placenta is a rare delicacy for them.
04:51Anholt Island attracts a large number of harbour seals.
04:53This is the largest harbor seal colony in the Baltic Sea.
04:56One of the settlements
04:58To ensure an adequate milk supply
05:00Hong Kong seal mothers need to leave frequently
05:02Their babies went into the sea to forage for food.
05:12The Hong Kong seal pups spend most of their time in a temporary nursery.
05:21Every three or four hours
05:22Harbour seal pups will feel hungry
05:24Need to breastfeed
05:30The Hong Kong seal pups began calling for their mother urgently.
05:35At this time, the impetuous harbor seal pups are prone to causing a ruckus.
05:38Other adult harbor seals attracted danger.
05:55The returning Hong Kong seal mother is also searching for her cubs.
05:59Harbour seal mothers need to communicate through scent and vocalizations.
06:02Identifying among the countless harbor seal pups on Anholt Island
06:06one’s own child
06:08The other harbor seal mothers were determined to drive the harbor seal pup away.
06:11They only feed their own children.
06:26This baby Hong Kong seal
06:42He heard a familiar call
07:00Mother's kiss
07:01The two babies from the harbor were comforted.
07:04There will be food soon.
07:11Although people can only observe from a distance
07:13A mother and her pup, timid harbor seals, on Anholt Island
07:18However, some backpackers are unaware of this.
07:20They broke into the other animals' nursery.
07:23The baby sword-shaped bird likes to put its head on the ground.
07:26Hopefully, this way they won't be discovered.
07:35And in order not to reveal the location of the chicks
07:37Jianheng's parents will carefully maintain a distance from their children.
07:41After confirming that the surroundings are safe
07:42Only an adult swordsman would quietly approach.
07:44Use feathers to keep children warm
07:56Not a nature reserve
07:58These white geese and swallows are rarely disturbed.
08:13Unlike Beihai
08:14The deviation in the Baltic Sea is not significant.
08:16Therefore, the beach here will not be submerged by rising tides.
08:21For Hong Kong seal pups
08:23This means the beach playground will remain dry.
08:27Although from the day I was born
08:29They will swim
08:36Encouraged by the mother seal in the harbor
08:38The children started going into the water.
08:46Some of the little ones wanted to stay on their mothers' backs a little longer.
08:49But they must learn to be independent as soon as possible.
08:56A few weeks after the birth of the Hong Kong seal pup
08:58The weight can reach nearly 30 kilograms.
09:06Hong Kong seal pups need sufficient fat reserves
09:08When the mother seal left them
09:11They have no choice but to fish on their own.
09:13Of course, now is not the time.
09:23Harbor seals can dive for about half an hour.
09:26But usually they go through every few minutes
09:28They will float to the surface to breathe.
09:36A fat layer several centimeters thick
09:37It can help them withstand the cold underwater.
09:40But if the fur gets wet
09:42Its heat retention performance is much worse.
09:48In the Baltic Sea
09:49Harbor seals are more commonly found in the western part of the sea area.
09:51Occasionally, they also appear along the southern coast of Sweden.
09:54Infectious diseases that once broke out here
09:56It has claimed the lives of many harbor seals.
10:00Thanks to strict environmental protection regulations
10:01The population here is recovering.
10:06Until today
10:07The beaches along the Baltic coast remain largely untouched by this animal.
10:11Love's Gathering Place
10:24South of the Kattegat Sea
10:27Channels, islands, and bays restrict the passage between the Baltic Sea and the North Sea.
10:31Seawater flows
10:33The sea level here decreases.
10:35After passing this point, the ship entered the Baltic Sea.
10:39Such hilly areas were used by weapons
10:41That is, it was formed by the accumulation of glacial deposits from weapons.
10:46The tooth walls on Silver Island have a similar origin.
10:50The tooth wall surface is not sand but clay.
10:53Therefore, it is more robust
10:57This Yasha banquet provided an ideal residence
11:03Every spring
11:04These small birds migrate back to Europe from their wintering grounds in Africa.
11:14These tooth-eating creatures are busy building their nests.
11:21Next, they will begin looking for new partners.
11:26The partnership in the Yasha banquet will only last for one summer.
11:31Their caves are densely distributed on the tooth walls
11:34This makes it difficult for predators to approach.
11:45The cave is about the length of a human arm.
11:47Moreover, the passage within it will be slightly lighter.
11:49To avoid getting wet from the rain
12:02The space at the end of the cave will expand to be more spacious.
12:26Yasha banquets used plants or feathers to line the caves.
12:30Then they lay precious eggs.
12:44In years with suitable climate
12:45They even lay their eggs a second time on these ancient cliffs.
12:50The fertile soil has created excellent pastures and farmland.
13:04In addition, the islands of Denmark also provide ideal breeding grounds for some waterfowl.
13:09land
13:09For example, upturned nose and red horn jade
13:23Male red horned jade dance nimbly on the shallows in pursuit of mates.
13:35The debate among the Jianheng group continues.
13:41The male red horned jade's efforts paid off.
13:43Their mating is like practicing balancing acrobatics.
13:55A large group of male cliff-dwelling jackals also became restless in the spring.
13:59The red, willow-like plants at the base of their pods are particularly vibrant in the breeding grounds.
14:03They are competing for a female cliff-side paralysis tooth.
14:14Intense battle between male cliff-dwelling parasites
14:17Including frantic pursuit, attack, or direct assault.
14:28There was even aerial combat.
14:36The winner finally succeeded in winning a partner.
14:56Surprisingly
14:57Cliffside numbness, regardless of gender
14:59They all have very brightly colored feathers.
15:05This may be because female cliff pterosaurs do not need to complete incubation.
15:08Deliberately disguised
15:10They usually shovel the eggs into the hole.
15:12For example, looking for an old burrow left by a rabbit.
15:28This is the Great Belt Strait.
15:31Most of the seawater from the North Sea flows into the Baltic Sea from here.
15:34This sea area is very important
15:40The main road, approximately 18 kilometers long, connects the Flying Eagle region of western Denmark.
15:44The island is connected to Zealand Island to the east.
15:51Many mature dolphins live between the Kattegat Sea and Kiel Gulf.
16:01This is one of the smallest sperm species in the world.
16:04They are about 1.5 meters long.
16:16Mature dolphins are naturally shy
16:17They are difficult for people to observe in normal times.
16:19Because they rarely leap out of the water.
16:25Some marine animals adapted to higher sea levels live here.
16:30In the deep sea
16:31The denser seawater flows southward beneath the Kattegat Sea.
16:35These seawaters can bring a large amount of oxygen to the Baltic Sea.
16:38Provide protection for rich and diverse biological communities
16:51Moreover, it can meet the daily feeding needs of mature dolphins.
17:07These small creatures are particularly sensitive to sound.
17:10The noise emitted by ships can damage their hearing.
17:13It is now very difficult to see dolphins in many sea areas.
17:17Unfortunately
17:17The noise from offshore wind turbines will also have the same effect.
17:24The Øresund Bridge connects Malmö, Sweden, with the capital of Denmark.
17:28Copenhagen
17:33Copenhagen boasts landmarks such as Rosenborg Palace.
17:36And iconic buildings such as the pitched-roof houses along the Newport Canal.
17:46The Isle of Moen lies south of Copenhagen.
17:49The several-kilometer-long Bai'er Cliff is particularly eye-catching.
17:54In some places, the Bai'e Cliffs reach heights of up to 128 meters.
17:57Compared to the German island of Lugegen
17:59Even higher than similar cliffs in Dover, England.
18:10This place is extremely attractive to a particular type of bird.
18:13They possess extraordinary speed
18:181970s
18:20Oil spills had once disappeared in Denmark.
18:25However, with the arrival of the new century
18:27Moen Island has once again seen some oil-damaged couples.
18:34The oil-damaged couple would visit this White Cliff every year.
18:37Raising about four chicks
18:44With a dive speed of approximately 300 kilometers per hour
18:46They can easily catch other birds that are nestling on the shore.
19:05The oil-damaged mother once again brought prey back to her chicks in the nest.
19:12The young birds can eat at their own pace without any rush.
19:25But the oil-damaged mother suddenly flew away with the food.
19:30They are perfectly capable of leaving the nest.
19:33Living independently
19:41Today, the Danish islands of Bernholm and Zealand have once again become...
19:45breeding grounds that attract oil spills
19:59Kiel Bay lies to the south of the Great Belt Strait.
20:03and the Strait of Fehmarne
20:15Inland
20:16Ancient farms and fields have become the main landscape here.
20:26And in the distant Xia Bay, it wasn't just sailboats that were swimming.
20:38February 2016
20:39Stefan Tang, a professional diver with the Flensburg Fire Brigade in Germany
20:42Msen
20:43A special encounter took place here.
20:47But in the following weeks
20:49Thomson and his colleagues, however, frequently spotted the two dolphins.
20:53Dolphins swim around people in a curious and friendly manner.
21:05The media named the two dolphins Saifei and Defei.
21:12These are two juvenile male dolphins.
21:14They were likely exploring Flensburg Bay.
21:19Saifei and Defei in the Baltic Sea
21:21Living there for several months
21:22Some people have also seen them near the Swedish coast.
21:31The Baltic Sea provides ample food for dolphins.
21:34For example, flying fish and snow fish
21:40Thomson even met Sef and Defe.
21:42Stirring up seabed silt
21:43Searching for food hidden on the seabed
21:50They also enjoy chasing boats.
22:09The Sefedef attracted curious tourists.
22:12These people spent an unforgettable time here.
22:29The reason is still unclear.
22:32But there is plenty of food here.
22:33Moreover, these two dolphins largely prove...
22:36Dolphins have no problem overwintering in the Baltic Sea.
22:41In Schleswig
22:43After cruising in the Holstein Sea for about four weeks
22:45The two boys then swam towards Denmark.
22:48Perhaps it was to chase the school of fish
22:50They did not linger in the Baltic Sea.
22:58The Traveo River lies to the south of the bay.
23:01This river flows through the German country of Becquerel.
23:03This place was once the center of the Hanseatic League.
23:07Today it serves as a gateway to the north.
23:09Merchant ships would depart from here for the Scandinavian Peninsula.
23:13and various places along the Baltic coast
23:17From there eastward
23:18Mecklenburg Bay outlines the Baltic Sea.
23:21The winding coastline
23:25Narrow sandy beach underground and peninsula
23:28Behind it is West Lake.
23:32For example, West Lake near Rerik
23:37Long beach
23:38It is the former fishing village of Varnamünde
23:40Becoming a popular vacation destination
23:42The marina and coastal walkway here
23:44It is also captivating enough.
23:48A little further away from the Dals Peninsula
23:51The waves kept washing over the trees on the shore.
23:53The exposed tree roots had no support.
23:55Finally, the trees fell.
23:56West Beach of the Dalse Peninsula
23:58The same scene also exists.
24:06To prevent cranes from damaging farmland
24:07Farmers will combine corn and wheat
24:09Scattered in the already harvested fields
24:11Distract the cranes
24:23The loud calls of the cranes
24:25You can hear it from afar
24:36They like to gather on the shallows of West Lake.
24:42Thunder hat
24:47The baby birds in the tree hole heard
24:49New antlers have grown.
24:55In spring
24:56Male red deer will travel in herds
24:58Strolling in the forest
24:59Like a touring band
25:02Wait until autumn
25:03They will become rivals again.
25:06Some animals may prefer to live underground in the forest.
25:08For example, Huan
25:15Huan is a timid and shy nocturnal animal.
25:23However, in many parts of Asmond National Park
25:25The environment is quiet and peaceful
25:27Huan would even bring her cubs along for the worship ceremony.
25:31A female iguana can give birth to multiple pups in one litter.
25:45Older children can forage in the forest with their parents.
25:52People with a very sensitive sense of smell are welcome.
26:01Although Huan is a carnivorous female animal
26:03But apart from insects and small mammals
26:05They also eat some plant roots.
26:07Flowers and fruits
26:15but
26:16Huan only needs to notice any movement
26:18It will disappear from the ground immediately.
26:37Not far from Baier Cliffs in Asmond National Park
26:41Beyond Lugen Island lies Filme Island.
26:45Further east
26:46That is the Uzedom Island resort area
26:50Tourists flocked to the Albek pier.
26:59Poland is just a few kilometers away from here.
27:03The beach here is secluded, peaceful, and far from the hustle and bustle.
27:11This area is dotted with bays and West Lake.
27:13It provides shelter for some ancient animals
27:27Centuries ago
27:28Wild European bison are nearly extinct.
27:32However, in the 1980s
27:34European bison have been spotted again in western Poland.
27:41These bison can now roam freely here.
27:51Woring National Park, covering approximately 110 square kilometers
27:54Located between the Baltic Sea and the Oder Delta
27:58This area has been an ideal sanctuary for European bison for decades.
28:05Now, people's long-held dream of seeing the European bison in person can be realized.
28:17Beaches and rolling dunes stretching from Poland to Lithuania
28:20It seems to have no end.
28:22The most famous spot along the coast is undoubtedly the Spit of Kursk.
28:29The Kurs Spit, formed by fine sand, is nearly 100 kilometers long.
28:33It lies between Lake Kursk and the Baltic Sea.
28:46The persistent sea winds have continuously piled up and moved the sand dunes.
28:55This area was a forest before the 17th century.
29:02However, after the forest was cleared...
29:04Sand took over here
29:06At times of the year, the sand dunes move at unimaginable speeds.
29:12Those residents who have the ability to relocate
29:14The wooden house was demolished.
29:15They all moved to other places to settle down.
29:18This sandy land buried many villages and towns.
29:31This situation has occurred in Nida Town before.
29:48About two hundred years ago
29:49People decided to reforest the desert.
29:56now
29:57Villages and ports are protected by forests.
29:59Far from the encroachment of sand dunes
30:02The town was once again graced with the sight of white-tailed eagles soaring through the blue sky.
30:11Due to hunting and pollution issues
30:12For a long time before this, the white-tailed eagle
30:15They disappeared from this area.
30:18waters near Kurs Spit
30:20Abundant fish resources
30:22The steep slopes of the sand dunes
30:23This provides an ideal observation location for white-tailed eagles.
30:26They can wait here to hunt.
30:33Or observe your companions hunting.
30:36White-tailed eagles and mandarin ducks can coexist peacefully.
30:39There must be a reason for this.
30:56A young white-tailed eagle with fully grown wings
30:58A dead fish was found on the beach.
31:04This also attracted another hungry young companion.
31:12Perhaps these two white-tailed eagles haven't yet fully mastered their fishing skills.
31:16But they have learned to create conflict.
31:25The battle ended
31:26Both appeared to be unharmed.
31:29Thanks to strict environmental regulations
31:31A considerable number of white-tailed eagles
31:32They can hunt and live in this sea area
31:35Many of them will visit Curspit.
31:58From here east
32:00On the unspoiled coast of Latvia
32:03The reddish-brown river flows into the sea.
32:06When the river flows through the inland marshes
32:08It was dyed
32:15The Gaoya River is long and wide
32:18It stretches for more than 450 kilometers
32:20Deep in the dense forest
32:28Some traditional animal inhabitants of the north
32:30Live here
32:34Moose are adapted to the cold winter.
32:36I also like cool summers.
32:39The dharani mother is feeding her child.
32:42You can still see in Mother Toru
32:44The thick fur that grows during winter
33:03Western Latvia was formerly Courland and Semigali.
33:07Principality of Asia
33:27The beach leads to Cape Kerka, the northernmost point of western Latvia.
33:34The Baltic Sea and the Gulf of Liga meet again.
33:42Although there are multiple lighthouses standing around
33:44However, it is inevitable that some boats will run aground near the beach.
33:53The stranded ship attracted gray seals.
34:04About one hundred years ago
34:05Thousands of grey seals have returned to life.
34:11By the end of the 1990s
34:12The number of gray seals here is dwindling.
34:21Grey seals when hunting
34:23It can dive to a depth of over 100 meters for about 20 minutes.
34:26They can even catch fast-swimming salmon.
34:33A gray seal that is about two meters long and weighs about 300 kilograms
34:37They can eat about ten kilograms of fish every day.
34:44Therefore, fishermen regard gray seals as their mortal enemies.
34:47They were almost completely wiped out.
34:54The shipwreck at Li Ka Wan may be humanity's compensation to the grey seals.
34:58The gray seals' current favorite gathering place
35:00It was a nearly submerged fishing boat that had lost its nets.
35:11As a result, the fishermen provided these old rivals with a sunbathing area.
35:25Since humans stopped overhunting them
35:28Grey seal populations have recovered
35:31The number of grey seals along the Baltic coast has now exceeded 30,000.
35:36These adorable creatures are still active in this young ocean.
