Journey Into Amazing Caves
Caves are home to some of the most unique and mysterious microscopic creatures alive. In Journey Into Amazing Caves, you'll join two courageous women who make their living exploring in the most unforgiving places in search of an understanding of life that exists there. On a quest to find extremeophiles—unique microorganisms that thrive under extreme conditions—they'll venture deep into the ice caves of Greenland, the underwater caves of Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, and the rocky caves of the Grand Canyon. Narrated by Liam Neeson and featuring the music of the Moody Blues, the film invites you to take a close look at the fragility of life on—and within—the earth.

Be a part of a scientific team at work to test a synthesized shark repellent in shark-infested waters. Swim alongside the enormous, but normally docile, whale shark. Meet exotic wildlife, and learn how the presence of sharks really enhances their life in the earth's oceans. Search for the Great Sharks will bring you up close to blue sharks, whale sharks, and the notorious great white shark to experience the magnificence and strength of these frightening and powerful animals.

Wolves
Wolves have held a nearly mythical place in the human consciousness for hundreds of years. Shy and intensely cautious, they avoid people and never stray far from the pack. Their dwindling numbers in North America in recent years have sparked a renewed interest in their protection. Through unparalleled nature photography and impressive historical footage, the Wolves Omnitheater film will immerse you in the lives of wolves in their natural habitat. Sit in the middle of the pack as it prowls, howls, hunts, and plays, and discover the power, the vulnerability, and the spirit of these nearly mythic creatures.
