Episode Overview
This episode explores isolated habitats that are so far removed from other ecosystems that they nurture unique species of plants and animals. Locations featured include a secluded island 250 miles off Africa's coast in the Indian Ocean, coral atolls, and islands in Indonesia, Hawaii, Easter Island, and New Zealand. Viewers will discover a variety of life forms, such as coral, crabs, tortoises, giant floating seeds, and flightless birds like the dodo. The episode also examines the impact of feral cats on native wildlife, including the Komodo Dragon, tuatara, kiwi, moa, and kea, while discussing how these animals originally reached these distant locales and adapted to thrive there.
