Ebola: On the Trail of a Killer – The Ebola virus cycles between active and dormant. Scientists are trying to understand where it hides between outbreaks.
Dolphins: Born Free – Dolphins among the most intelligent creatures on the planet, but in captivity they not only lose their ability to think independently, but also their hunting skills.
The Putorana Plateau – The inaccessibility of the Putorana Plateau, walled off on both sides by 400-meter cliffs, makes it the least-known location on Earth and has helped it retain its pristine beauty.
