Antarctica: The End of the Earth: Icebergs

NATURE brings the beauty and wonder of the natural world into your home, becoming in the process the benchmark for natural history programs.

Season 18 Episode 2 | 53m 56s | CC

This program explores Antarctica's ever-changing icecap. Icebergs inch their way through hundreds of miles and thousands of years to be born as million-ton islands at the end of the sea. These vast platforms of ice are the source of life for seals and penguins, but they also have a life of their own. (Part 2 of 2)
