Freebie Hunters Blog

Narrated by Sir David Attenborough, The Hunt approaches predation as never before, taking an intimate look at the remarkable strategies employed by hunters to catch their prey and the hunted to escape. The series travels the world in search of the top predators: from hunting dogs endless chases over the open plains to polar bears stalking seals out on breaking ice: from portia, nature’s smartest spider, that alters its hunting strategy depending on what prey it’s targeting, to the abdopus octopus, which, at low tide, walks across the ground to reach fish trapped in rock pools; from killer whales running down humpback whales in tropical waters to the first ever images of blue whales feeding. The animals' strategies are shaped by where they live so each episode plays out in one principal habitat, whether savannah, jungle or ocean. Find out how you can request The Hunt poster.
