David Attenborough's Asia

Asia is the most mountainous continent on earth. From the tropical south to its barren centre, its highest places are home to some of our planet's most remarkable wildlife.

In the remote reaches of Asia's frozen north, creatures must overcome unique challenges, finding exceptional ways to thrive in a hostile world that pushes life to its very limits.

Asia's jungles are exceptionally diverse, but whilst they provide shelter, food and opportunity, they are also full of dangers and hidden threats.

In the planet's most densely populated continent, animals live at extremely close quarters with people, from tigers making a home in town to elephants stopping traffic for food.

In the heart of Asia lie vast arid lands with deserts and dry grasslands so hostile that they push life to the limit. The animals that live here are some of the earth's toughest.
