The Wild West, where survival demands grit and adaptability. \n\nIn snowbound Yellowstone, coyotes use skill and geothermal heat to survive. In Colorado, hundreds of rattlesnakes emerge after winter, while a pregnant female risks starvation to give birth. In California, acorn woodpeckers battle for the best food storage sites, using barns and trees to secure their winter supplies. In Arizona’s desert, honeypot ants survive extreme heat by storing nectar inside their own bodies deep underground. \n\nOn the Great Plains, ageing bison face fierce rivals to win mates, while fires renew the grasslands. In Kansas, wild horses run through lightning-charged skies. On Nebraska’s Platte River, half a million sandhill cranes converge, their courtship dances creating a rare natural spectacle, now captured from above. \n\nThe Wild West remains a place of extremes, where each creature must fight to endure its challenges.\n
