The Natural World

on BBC Two England

Benguela and the Burning Shore
The Namib Desert in Africa is one of the most unusual places on earth. Its baking sand dunes tumble into an ocean cooled by an icy current called the Benguela, giving rise to the oddest assembly of animals, including ferocious fur seals, dancing lizards, beetles that bathe in fog, and blind sand-swimming moles. Antarctic wildlife, such as penguins, teem on the same shore as hyenas, jackals and antelope from Africa. Narrated by Tim Pigott-Smith . Skeleton Coast, an explorer'sjourney through the Namib continues on Tuesday at 9.30pm. Producer Richard Matthews ; Series editor
Neil Nightingale
