Includes bonus program: Himalayas : home of the brown bear.
Summary:
Vast, exotic and awe-inspiring, the Indian Subcontinent stretches from the snowy peaks of the Himalayas to the scorched red deserts of Rajasthan and is home to over a million people, yet still supports a fantastic variety of wildlife. This is the land that inspired Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Book, with bears, elephants, monkeys, crocodiles and cobras, and it is the only place in the world where both lions and tigers live. It offers sights never before captured on film.
