The Wild West

2013

Production

Before cowboys and before the Gold Rush, there were the original outlaws of the West -- the truly untamed animals that call America home. Elephant seals settling their scores with blood; black and brown bears prospecting for pink gold in the form of thousands of salmon; and bobcats exploring the New World alone. Join National Geographic as we venture inside the coasts, deserts and mountains where these wild creatures roam.

Seasons

1. High Noon

Its high noon in the barren deserts of the Wild West, and a host of wildlife face extreme conditions and threatening adversaries in their daily struggle to survive.

2. True Grit

Only the strong survive in the Rocky Mountains. Meet the grey wolves, outlaws of the mountains, feared and respected by all who dwell there. Watch how a pack fights, hunts and keeps order. Like the wolves, grizzly bears strike fear into the hearts of all who live in their territory.

3. Gold Rush

Few legends are more significant in the American psyche than that of the Wild West. We find that for the animals populating the Pacific coast, the West's mystic past remains a savage reality.
