Our world is home to more than 30 million different animal and plant species,each locked in a unique fight for survival. Discovery Channel will premiere a new series- Life,revealing the most spectacular and fascinating behaviours that living creatures have devised in order to thrive. Many of these were captured for the first time using the latest state-of-the-art high-definition filming techniques. Filmed over 3,000 days,across every continent and in every habitat,the channel claims that the series captures wonders no one has ever seen before. The 10-part series will premiere on Discovery Channel every night at 8 pm for two consecutive weeks,from May 24 to June 6.
