NBC’s “The Americas” takes viewers on a breathtaking journey through some of the most extreme landscapes on Earth. This Sunday, the series heads to the Andes, the planet’s longest mountain range, a place where life clings to existence in the face of constant challenges.
From glacial peaks to arid deserts, the Andes are a study in contrasts, home to a stunning array of creatures that have adapted to survive in these harsh conditions. “The Americas” captures rare glimpses of animal behavior, using cutting-edge technology to film intimate courtship rituals, dramatic hunts, and the everyday struggles of survival.
Watch baby bears make their treacherous first descents down steep slopes, witness rare hummingbirds compete for mates in a dazzling aerial display, and observe lizards battling for territory. And if that’s not enough, see how one remarkable species of frog freezes solid each night, only to thaw and revive the next morning – a true testament to the resilience of life.
“The Americas” airs Sunday, March 23rd at 8:00 PM ET on NBC. Don’t miss this stunning exploration of the natural world.
