In the towering rain forests along the northern shores of the Pacific, scientists recently discovered a new subspecies of the gray wolf. Unlike its genetic kin anywhere else in the world, this wolf swims, fishes for salmon and roams great distances from island to inlet across both water and rough terrain. Secrets of the Coast Wolf blends modern science and traditional knowledge to create a fascinating portrait of a unique wolf subspecies and the pristine, fragile world they inhabit.

This is the story of studying Mars on Earth at Devon Island, the largest uninhabited island in the world located 500 kilometres southwest of the Magnetic North Pole. Devon Island is an analogue to Mars which has made it extremely interesting to NASA. Mars on Earth follows the largest scientific mission on Earth known as the NASA/Haughton-Mars Project. With exclusive access, we follow Dr. Pascal Lee and his team of 60 scientists in their exploration of Mars on Earth.
The North American west was once a wild horse dominion. In fact, as late as the 19th century, huge herds roamed the prairies alongside the buffalo. Today, only a few hundred remain wild. In captivity they literally will themselves to die. We photograph that rare sight of a wild mustang running free.
