WILD HUNGARY - A WATER WONDERLAND
A country like no other in Europe, Hungary is influenced by the rhythms of its rivers. White-tailed eagles, otters and enormous catfish share the wetlands with many other species living close to the local people, often unnoticed. Wild Hungary is their story presenting some never-before-filmed animal behavior like dancing deer or wintering catfish.
