Carpathian Predators

The Carpathian Mountains stretch across seven European countries. Vast primeval forests, steep gorges and isolated peaks offer a vital refuge to some of the continent's most charismatic creatures. The opening instalment of this two-part documentary takes place in the summer months. A mother brown bear struggles to find food for her two cubs before the winter arrives. A pair of lynx kittens venture away from their den and honeybees pollinate flowers.
