Wild Life with Bertie Gregory

In Nat Geo WILD’s first digital series, wildlife filmmaker and National Geographic Young Explorer, Bertie Gregory journeys to Vancouver Island in search of the elusive coastal wolves that inhabit one of the last places on the planet where a wild forest meets a wild ocean.

National Geographic wildlife filmmaker Bertie Gregory takes audiences on an adventure to the iconic South Georgia Island. Sailing through some of the roughest ocean on the planet in a 50ft sailboat, the team’s target is the sub-Antarctic island renowned for its 9000ft glaciated mountains that erupt straight up out of the ocean. Together with it’s breathtaking scenery, this island now claims one of the highest concentration of wildlife on the planet. Bertie gets closer than ever before to capture the challenges faced by the 4 toughest animals that call this place home. Sass, teamwork, endurance, and uncanny city living are all techniques for surviving here. But this is more than just a straight natural history show. From Captain Cook’s discovery of the island to the now abandoned whaling settlements, this island presents the very best and worst in our own human nature.

In 2019, wildlife filmmaker Bertie Gregory brings us on an blizzard filled adventure to the edge of the Canadian Arctic. Here, a unique group of hardcore animals have figured out a way to thrive. But our changing climate means their lives are changing faster than anywhere else on the planet. We’ll join Bertie as he walks with polar bears, gets into the middle of a wolf pack and dives under the sea ice with harp seals for a unique in-the-moment experience. His signature on camera commentary brings fresh perspective to wildlife storytelling and helps make an urgent environmental message resonate with the audience.
