The Cold Blooded Truth
Reptiles and amphibians are as dramatic in combat, colorful in their communication and tender in their parental care as other animals. They also live their lives on a totally different time scale and harness their energy from the sun. The Cold-Blooded Truth reveals the secret of their success.

Land Invaders
Among chorusing frogs in Panama, Sir David Attenborough asks how amphibians first managed to invade the land.
