2009 marks both the bicentenary of Charles Darwin's birth and the 150th anniversary of the publication of his book On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection. To mark the occasion, Life aims to show to the diversity of the natural world and unusual animal behaviour which has enabled species to survive.Sequences filmed include flocking red knots and horseshoe crabs in Delaware Bay, USA, cheetah in northern Kenya collaborating to hunt an unusual prey species - ostrich and a group of twenty Komodo dragons attacking a buffalo at a watering hole on the island of Rinca, Indonesia.Eagles and reindeer were also filmed in the Käsivarsi Wilderness Area in Finnish Lapland.
