大卫·爱登堡爵士将带我们聆听自然的声音，这是关于繁殖和生存的露天歌会。那么这些“歌声”会很快消失吗？从阳光明媚的春天到黑暗寒冷的冬季，自然界中充满了动物的“歌声”。每一种“歌声”都在为我们讲述一个令人难以置信的故事，并吸引着我们去探索更多的自然之谜。鲸、大山雀、琴鸟，吸蜜鸟，以及华丽的鹩莺都有自己独特的“歌声”，有的婉转动听、有的非常惊人、有的充满了悲伤。科学家们发现，不只是雄性动物会“唱歌”，雌性动物也会“一展歌喉”。然而当我们刚刚听到它们的“歌声”时，人们却越来越担心这些歌声会永远消失。随着人类的世界变得越来越嘈杂，地球上的其它地方却变得越来越沉寂……

David Attenborough has a passion for birds' eggs. These remarkable structures nurture new life, protecting it from the outside world at the same time as allowing it to breathe. They are strong enough to withstand the full weight of an incubating parent and weak enough to allow a chick to break free. 　　But how is an egg made? Why are they the shape they are? And perhaps most importantly, why lay an egg at all? Piece by piece, from creation to hatching, David reveals the wonder behind these miracles of nature.

1961年的一个炎热夏日，正在拍摄《动物园探索》的大卫•阿滕伯勒从一名马达加斯加当地男孩手中，接过了一些巨大的蛋壳碎片。这些碎片是男孩在覆盖着沙粒的河床上发现的，它们属于世界上最大的鸟类——已经灭绝的重达半吨的象鸟。自从大卫在马达加斯加拍摄完《动物园探索》后，这里就发生了巨大的变化：80%的雨林遭到破坏，而人口却激增了四倍，当地特有的50多种哺乳动物在灭绝的边缘挣扎。阿滕伯勒珍贵的蛋壳碎片能解释远古象鸟的消失之谜吗？我们能从象鸟的命运中领悟到拯救马达加斯加野生动物的方法吗？

David Attenborough follows the remarkable story of the discovery of fossils in the Patagonia region of Argentina which prove to belong to the largest animal to ever walk the Earth.

David Attenborough investigates the remarkable life and death of Jumbo the elephant - a celebrity animal superstar whose story is said to have inspired the movie Dumbo. 　　Attenborough joins a team of scientists and conservationists to unravel the complex and mysterious story of this large African elephant - an elephant many believed to be the biggest in the world. With unique access to Jumbo's skeleton at the American Museum of Natural History, the team work together to separate myth from reality. How big was Jumbo really? How was he treated in captivity? And how did he die? Jumbo's bones may offer vital clues. 　　Arriving in London Zoo in 1865, Jumbo fast became a firm favourite of Queen Victoria and her children, and was nicknamed the Children's Pet. Yet behind the scenes, this gentle giant was living a double life - smashing his den, breaking his tusks and being pacified by large amounts of alcohol given to him by his keeper, Matthew Scott. Scott had no human friends but had a deep empathy for animals, developing a particularly strong and near mystical bond with Jumbo. 　　Then, quite suddenly, London Zoo caused public outrage by selling Jumbo to PT Barnum's circus in America where he travelled with his devoted keeper to start a new life. But while his time in America turned him into star with 20 million people coming to see him, his life ended tragically and 　　mysteriously. 　　As well as Jumbo's skeleton, Attenborough explores the lives of wild elephants to explain Jumbo's troubled mind, and he discovers how our attitude to captive elephants has changed dramatically in recent years.
