Part 1: Cambodia - The Water Kingdom

Copy-Pasted below is a description of this episode;

Cambodia's wildlife is ruled by the monsoon cycle. It's rivers connect a mosaic of habitats as they flow like arteries from the highland forests to the central plains of Tonle Sap Basin and the Mekong Lowlands. It is a wild land of extreme rains that create challenges for some, and opportunities for others. Asian elephants, Giant freshwater turtles, Burmese pythons, rare birds, and lost civilizations characterize the tidal wave of life here in the water kingdom.

Part 2: Malaysia - Freaks of Nature

Copy-Pasted below is a description of this episode;

Malaysia is home to some of the largest, smallest, and downright weirdest life forms on the planet,any of which occur nowhere else on earth. Malaysia's animals and plants have exploited every opportunity to carve out an existence and have adapted to some very strange ways of life. But specialization can also mean fragility and as more of Malaysia's forests give way to palm plantations, the future of it's wildlife becomes ever more precious.

Part 3: Thailand - The Wild Heart

Copy-Pasted below is a description of this episode;

Thailand lies at the heart of Indochina. It is a melting pot for wildlife from across the region. Tigers still roam, maintaining the status quo as apex predator, and Assamese macaques live in large troops to avoid such threats. The range of wildlife here creates great biodiversity but also presents huge challenges. Thailand is a land with extreme environments and remarkable creatures; they all play their part in maintaining the balance of their worlds.

Part 4: Vietnam - Phoenix from the Ashes

Copy-Pasted below is a description of this episode;

Vietnam is the easternmost country on the Indochina peninsula. But less than 50 years ago, things were very different. For more than a decade, Vietnam's forests were decimated, as a battle between people became a war against nature. The devastation was so massive that the terms "ecological warfare" and "ecocide" were coined to describe it. The dust finally settled, and remarkably, life fought back.

Part 5: Southwest China - China's Secret Garden

Tucked away in China's southwest corner, is an oasis unlike any other. Snow-capped mountains, temperate valleys, and tropical jungles are home to a spectacular array of wildlife. Approximately half of China's birds and mammals live in that region. Many are found nowhere else on earth. Remarkably, this vast array of life is all down to a flaw in one of the most powerful forces of nature.
