Macaque Island

Long tailed macaques have recently being declared globally endangered and are in massive decline across South East Asia. Singapore is one of the few countries where they are managed and protected, allowing a fascinating glimpse into their complex lives and unique adaptations to the urban world. Many of the troops have adapted to live between the forest and the city fringes and have learned to make the best of the two worlds. But good monkey habitat is in short supply on this small island, and living so close to each other, it is inevitable that two of these troops will eventually cross paths. Macaques are extremely territorial and both groups are led by a charismatic alpha male who makes all the decisions for their tight family and just wants what’s best for them – including the richest home.

Woodpeckers: The Hole Story

There are over 240 species of woodpeckers. They live on every continent except Antarctica and Australia. Woodpeckers come in all shapes and sizes, each uniquely engineered for their particular lifestyles. Some are sap drinkers, others live exclusively in forests ravaged by fire. Others catch insects on the wing acting more like a swallow than a woodpecker. And still others drill deep into the bark of decaying trees using their spear like tongue to fish insects from deep in the cambium. WOODPECKERS: THE HOLE STORY pecks away at what makes woodpeckers so special. We will follow intimate stories of two very different families raising their young, explore woodpeckers’ unique evolutionary journey and the powerful role they play in every ecosystem they inhabit.
