Levison Wood is an iintrepid explorer who has a new Channel 4 series where he treks into remote regions of the world hoping to find endangered animals. He's travelled to over one hundred countries and embarked on numerous challenging expeditions already over the years, from walking the length of the Nile to circumnavigating the Arabian Peninsula, but now Levison is putting animals that are on the brink of extinction at the forefront of his adventures, heading to Borneo, Namibia and East Greenland in search of orangutans, desert lions and polar bears.
Travelling into some of the most remote and physically challenging environments on the planet, Levison will examine how human activity is threatening both their survival and our own. “This extraordinary quest took me to some of the harshest and most awe-inspiring environments on Earth,” he says. “I experienced the deep connection between local people and animals who are struggling to co-exist amid increased environmental destruction. This series is a testament to the beauty and fragility of our planet's wildest corners, and I trust it will inspire action to help save these animals and their habitats before it's too late. Join me as I explore the incredible worlds of orangutans, desert lions and polar bears.”
