    Wild Chronicles[#315]
    * News from Nature - Seen as a valuable commodity in the logging and tourist industries of Thailand, Asian elephants are often bought and sold by traders and then subjected to brutal training methods. The demand for young calves has led to poaching from the tiny wild population that remains. WC visits a sanctuary for troubled and abused elephants and meets the dedicated conservationists intent on rescuing and protecting these beleaguered giants.
    * Adventure and Exploration - Host Boyd Matson heads 20,000 leagues under the sea with National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Sylvia Earle. Diving off the coast of Florida, Matson and Earle visit the underwater habitat Aquarius and explore Earle's lifelong passion for protecting the Earth's oceans.
    * GeoCast
    - Using a giant CAT scan machine to penetrate thousands of pounds of rock, National Geographic researcher Phil Manning examines a rare dinosaur mummy unearthed in North Dakota. With skin, bones, tendons and ligaments potentially intact, this amazing discovery could alter scientists' understanding of how the ancient hadrosaur lived.
    - Volcanic eruptions have not only shaped the topography of the Galapagos Islands, but also the evolution of the species that live there. While most of the islands' species have adapted to a world of fire and ash, environmentalists worry that recent volcanic activity could threaten this fragile ecosystem.
    - For more than a century adventurers have risked their lives exploring Antarctica's barren landscape, yet few of its mountains have ever been summited. WC follows adventurer Jon Krakauer and climber Conrad Anker across 40 miles of frozen ice to Queen Maud Land, Antarctica as they attempt a dangerous first ascent in the face of a blizzard.
    - In southern India, a gang of Rhesus macaques is running wild in a local city. Driven into urban settlements by habitat loss, the revered monkeys are not always welcome guests. As if foraging in the forest, the monkeys treat a fruit vendor's cart like an all-you-can-eat buffet, and ransack an unsuspecting homeowner's kitchen. Now, a team of trappers hopes to remove the nuisance monkeys before the problem gets out of hand.

    Jewel of the Earth
    In the movie Jurassic Park, Richard Attenborough played the role of an entrepreneur who extracted dinosaur DNA from the blood of mosquitoes trapped in ancient amber. Now his real brother, Sir David Attenborough, explores that intriguing fossil possibility and a host of other astonishing secrets suspended in time millions of years ago. The celebrated naturalist's starting point is a piece of amber that he was given as a child and that he was fascinated to discover contained ancient insects buried within it. These remarkable bits of resin serve as a time machine, transporting scientists back 40 million years and yielding some amazing insights into life on Earth at that time. Revealed in stunning close-up photography, these jewels of the earth open doors to life in long-vanished ages.
