Wild North - the Forest

The Forest' is the 1st episode of the trilogy ”Wild North”, the series moves through three biotopes; vast forests, rugged coastline and interior highlands.

Deep in the forest we are treated to the sight of a female bear and not just one but three cubs emerging in the sunshine after hibernation. A enormous Elk bull emerges out of the fog to lovingly court an accommodating cow. But an even rarer sight awaits us; the Capercailie cock, blinded by rage, take on an Eagle and meets a brutal end.
