Rainforests
We take a trip through the natural history archives with some of the ´óÏó´«Ã½â€™s favourite wildlife presenters, as they remember some of their Wild Adventures in rainforests.
´óÏó´«Ã½ presenters look back on their adventures in our most precious of habitats – rainforests.
Chris Packham recalls his visit to Pipeline Road in Panama, where he saw a staggering array of birds, and the rainforest of Peru where he witnessed the relationship between an agouti and a Brazil nut tree.
Steve Backshall’s experience of rainforests has been a little more adrenaline-fuelled, as he recounts his climb of a tepui, a sheer sandstone mountain, in the rainforest of Venezuela.
George McGavin remembers, with great affection, the time he was in Guyana on the hunt for the world’s biggest tarantula – the Goliath bird-eating spider.
Liz Bonnin describes her time helping conservationists in the Amazon, climbing a tree to put a camera on a harpy eagle nest. While Gordon Buchanan recounts his four years living in the rainforest, learning his trade as a wildlife cameraman.
