See a family of lions hunt against the clock, a tiny sengi with an early need for speed, and a hot and bothered hippo survive 24 hours on Africa's Great Plains.

This fresh three part natural history series is a 24-hour roller coaster ride through the wild in UHD. Meet extraordinary animals as they thrive at different moments in the day to survive in some of the toughest landscapes on the planet. The changing position of the sun in the sky affects the behaviour of animals and plants across our planet. From the depths of the Costa Rican jungle, to open plains of South Africa and the dry deserts of Arizona, animals are waiting, ready to take advantage of the opportunities the sun creates. For some animals 24 hours is the blink of an eye – for others it’s an entire lifetime – but for every creature this series reveals there’s a moment in every animal’s day it must thrive to survive.
