While most of us are still digging out from winter, the Alaskans on Life Below Zero° are facing a different set of challenges. In “A New Reality,” the warm season brings its own set of uncertainties to those attempting to live off the land. Adapting to a changing environment takes on a whole new meaning when that environment includes rapidly thawing terrain and unpredictable wildlife behavior.
This episode explores how these resilient individuals face the challenges of a warmer Alaska, adjusting their survival strategies and confronting the uncertainties that come with an altered landscape. As the seasons shift, so too does the reality for these Alaskans, requiring them to adapt or risk getting left out in the cold – even when the temperature rises.
Life Below Zero° airs Tuesdays at 9:00 PM ET/PT on National Geographic.
