In the foothills of the Himalaya, we&#8217;ll meet the red panda, Asia&#8217;s shyest (and possibly cutest) mammal &#8211; amidst forests of bamboo. Five thousand meters up on the Tibetan Plateau, we&#8217;ll witness a lone wolf hunting a herd of antelope, relentlessly chasing them for hours on end. In Sri Lanka, we&#8217;ll join elephants that have learned to become highway thieves &#8211; holding up buses to get food from the passengers. And in the rich waters of the Western Pacific, we&#8217;ll swim with sea snakes and fish that have learned to team up, in order to hunt together in huge shoals.<\/p>\n<p>Filming locations include Lake Baikal, the vast taiga forest, the Lut Desert in Iran, and the Arabian Peninsula&#8217;s Empty Quarter. The series also features several Asian cities &#8211; Tokyo, Bangkok, Taipei, Bhopal, Hanoi, and Singapore.<\/p>\n<p>Asia is the largest continent, and no\u00a0other place is as rich in superlatives. It has the highest mountain range; the deepest ocean the tallest jungles; and the biggest cave.<\/p>\n<p>Asia&#8217;s wildlife is equally impressive. The continent is home to six species of bear, three species of rhino, and five species of big cat &#8211; more than Africa.
