BBC Two - Japan: Earth's Enchanted Islands, Honshu

Japan's 'big island' is home to millions of people - and an astonishing range of wildlife.

Documentary series. Japan's central island of Honshu is home to over 100 million people, but it has a wild heart, and an astonishing range of wildlife lives there.

The central island of Honshu is home to over 100 million people, and its biggest city, Tokyo, is one of the largest urban metropolises on earth. But it has a wild heart - most of Honshu is mountainous.
