Revealing the extraordinary super-powers of the animal kingdom.

Nature is miraculous. And in this exciting series Richard Hammond sets out to demonstrate exactly that by investigating the weird and wonderful engineering solutions that can be found in the animal kingdom.

Elephants, giraffes, owls, vultures, cuttlefish, hagfish - these are just some of the animals tested. Mind-blowing adaptations in action using ultra high-speed, super-microscopic, and ultra-violet photography, reveal exactly how they work in a series of compelling experiments which have inspired a series of unlikely human inventions at the very forefront of science.
