Spy in the Wild is back in one of the most innovative natural history series ever presented. This time it deploys over 50 ultra-realistic animatronic Spy Creatures to go undercover across every region of the world. The 4 x 60 series captures some of the most extraordinary animal behaviour ever seen, filmed from inside the animal world.
Using special state-of-the-art 4k resolution “Spy Creatures” the viewer is plunged into the very heart of the extraordinary lives of over 40 remarkable animals. They reveal previously unseen behaviour as animals gather, feed, fight and breed in among some of the greatest wildlife gatherings ever witnessed. This team of hyper-real Spy Creatures not only look like the animals they film, they behave like them too. Accepted by the families, these robotic look-alikes can not only film from an intimate perspective they also interact with the animals and so gain revelatory insights into their worlds.
Each episode explores a different climatic region of the world and is packed with its own menagerie of animatronic Spy Creatures and extraordinary animal subjects. They discover how the animals have adapted their behaviour to not only cope, but often flourish, wherever they live. At times, their subjects occur in incredible numbers creating astonishing gatherings, found nowhere else on earth. From the hot and humid Tropics, to the freezing Poles, the seasonal North and the world’s most spectacular Islands, this new series of Spy in the Wild will transport the audience deeper into the animal world than ever thought possible.

0:44, I just love the way robospy owl shows up, it's pretty funny. Still this is awesome.
Yeah it's just chilling in the air
its funnier the more you watch it
Derp eyed owl robot showing up like - (0 \/ 0)
they try to make it seem like its stealthy, its just a noisy buzzing drone with an owl shell lol
@@chrishayes5755 That's part of the joke :D
Seeing the puppies mimicking the adults fighting the muskox was hilariously cute.
@Untrepid One you're being so stupid. They have every right to hunt. Look what humans do to non-humans. You can't judge other species for killing. I don't consider cannibalism in New Guinea as bad, it's just the Papuan's way of life. Predation keeps populations at healthy levels, which benefits all.
Not cute at all reminds me of murderers and then teaching their kids to murder.
@@healingandgrowth-infp4677 their animals.
@@kapcapkapcap6104They’re animals! 🙂
@@thechosenone3197 🙂
cubs watching the hunt gives me chills. Amazing how smart these animals are
Nothing is amazing. They've been on this planet longer than you.
@@clbo9878 Isn't that amazing
@@clbo9878 No, they haven't.
@@khelgarironfist3301 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Sorry. They have. 🤪🤪
@@BlGGESTBROTHER you are technically correct... the best kind of correct 😆
This offers a new perspective. Beautiful shots and scenery. Felt like I was there.
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it!
You were there. 0_0
if u 👩🏿🦱were there..u could have been a desert for the wolves😒🧁🍰🎂
I felt like a referee in a ring walking around a fight lol
@@pateng686 wolves don't really hunt humans except in rare cases of starvation, or if you have a dog with you, etc.
My admiration to Narrator David Tennant. He what makes such documentaries so thrilling.
Pretty good reality to warp into Doctor
Yes big up Mr Tennant. Love his narration too
Weird Scottish guy
If the Oxen would've tried to defend the old female, the calf's could have perished. Although it's just my guess, it would seem to make sense. Nature is so harsh but it makes the right decisions.
Ух ты, это Девид Тэннант? 😄😍
What always amazes me, is how large wolves can actually be. A musk ox is considered to be large yet these wolves look to stand almost half its height. I know mass is much different but still. Amazing footage. 😊👍🏻
In a museum i saw the body of an arctic wolf next to a tiger (sumatran may be), both were equal in size, almost 2 time bigger than german shepherd.
🤦🏽♂️
@@djuakalisubwakeli170 so wolf are bigger than lion
@@mathildegaye8492 no
That's either a small female musk ox or a subadult. Musk ox are small at adult weight of 250-400kg. Though some really huge males rarely reach 500kg.
Well, them wolves are eating good that day.
Nature is a beast, it's the call of the wild
Well my friend they can't exactly order doordash up in the Arctic can they the old muskox said well I guess it's time to go to muskox Haven and collect my check
@@joejose8433 Lol I always wondered if animals are aware of God's existence
Ya coughing up fur balls for the next few days. Lol
They're getting a deal, too. Musk ox is hideously expensive.
Quality work. I imagine this takes a huge amount of effort, preparation, and knowledge.
It really does! Thank you.
How much do these robots cost I wonder?
I cannot express my gratitude to all those behind this great (quality) production. Thank you for all your hard work.
Our pleasure! Thank you for watching and following us online.
Fantastic filming. Thank you for sharing this.
You're welcome!
Forms a circle to protect the young 2 seconds later, disperses and runs for their lives Lmao Oldest one gets caught
🤣🤣🤣
stupid animals
I wonder what strategy would have saved those oxes. It was sad to see the ox surrender. The tragic part is, it would've been a slow and painful death unlike a lion/tiger kill.
@@TheKomentor That's a bad assumption. check out the video: "Graphic Video Warning - African Lions consume live warthog" The warthog literally gets eaten alive. Its legs kick and it squeals while the lions feast on it via the soft underbelly. Seems like with smaller prey, the lions sometimes prioritize eating over killing.
They are all beautiful creatures! I cant help feeling sorry for whichever side loses!
Nature of the beasts and the perrells of life and death!!!!! Thanks for this amazing video!!!!!
You're welcome!
@@JohnDownerProd you're amazing! Such a talented filmmaker
2:24 that Ox was like wtf is that🤨
The spy owl did a great job to record this~👍 Thank you for sharing this video~🤗
Who recorded the owl
@@BeKaachimaybe they have cameras that can take long distance shot i dunno much about cameras lol
They just used regular drones while filming the hunt. No need for the bloody owl except for entertainment.
I like how we humans are so confident we can just sneak a robot in and nobody will notice. Like you're chilling with your family and suddenly one day there's a robotic human at the table like "hi family. How are you doing today."
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
A Musk Ox that size will last the pack of Artic Wolves a week or more. The pups were knowledgeable enough to stay back. Once their Parents and the others closed in to take the Musk Ox down. Enjoyed this look into the daily lives of an Artic Wolf pack.. 💪🏼🙏🏻😅
I felt so bad but that’s just how the animal kingdom works
The great lesson here is that The Old Ox have sacrificed herself for the herd instead of running and risking the life of the rest. Not like our Kings who hides behind and let the army dies in vein. A true Leader. Respect
In my democracy its called the Prime minister
She didnt sacrifice herself. He said she was the slowest. She was old and slower than the rest so she got eaten. Survival of the fittest
@@Unkn0wn1133 still, she didnt try to run. babies are more better for them to eat
2:37 I don't know why but I found the pitter patter of the wolves little feet so cute!
I want to see more robot animals filming documentaries
The look in spy Snowy Owl's eyes make it seem it has been traumatized
I've been a wolf fan for as long as I can remember, and even though there are countless documentaries on wolves out there, I have never seen anything as spectacular as this footage before. I literally got goosebumps, watching how calculated, ferocious and deadly these wolves can be. We tend to form parallels to our dogs when we see wolves, and thereby underestimate their skill and power. Eating humble pie and regaining our awe for nature does us humans some good. Thank you for the hard work and effort you put into producing this masterpiece!
felt exactly the same! also such a wolf fan and I still have goosebumps. This was really raw, wild, intimidating and fascinating footage.
Thank you both! Very kind words!
@@JohnDownerProd also the choice of background music was perfect (this electro drumming stuff), it really added to the dramatic situation!
Wolves are cool , grizzlies are the epitome of cunning and awesome
@@ryanesau8147 I do not agree :P I love both but I find wolves a certain kind of fascinating
Next episode: "Spy mountain is up next for deployment."
Spy human is ready.
Spy pup deserves a better family :(
But he just a little robot :(
@@artstylejutsu2004 Shhhh he might hear u :(
😂
Beef is back on the menu boys.
We need to preserve these rare ox population Thank you for sharing
What if, by “preserving” one population, subsequently you destroy another population? Is that ok? Let nature sort itself out. That’s what is supposed to happen. It’s called survival of the fittest, evolution. “Weak men, create bad times”
4:36 the pupp : well done folks 😊❤
Bro the ox died you like things dying
Feeling strong, the ox didn't escape as soon as possible to his herd, sadly it led to his fate.
I could do this documentary work in my sleep. Of course awake I don't think I could.
Wow, your footage is beautiful! *Thank you for sharing with us* ❤️
My pleasure 😊
Love the Spy Owl....But the spy Wolf is the Cutest....Great work to all inolved..
Thank you very much!
This is spectacular! What a tragic and beautiful drama. Those wolf pups are amazingly sweet too.
I love the spy robots. It gives a new perspective & makes watching shows about nature interesting again
"Such battles can last an hour" They can last much longer then an hour, hunts can take days before a kill finally goes down, if it only took an hour then they prey was very lucky
If they have the prey held like in the video the prey wouldn't struggle for days, not enough energy too, an hour at most before it gives up fighting. Normally hunts lasting days is due to prey getting away able to take off and run making the wolves have to retrack it.
@@testerwulf3357 When the prey is broken away from the heard true it won't last days, still unlikely it would be over in an hour
A bison cant fight for much more than an hour with that many wolves.. the narrator was right u are wrong. Exhaustion sets in quick for that size animal with a pack of wolves like that.
Lunch time! Kids!!!! Come in eat now!
I never knew that the pups watched :O
how else would they learn how to hunt?
@@jessemurray1757 :|
Great footage aside from clearly bothering the wolves with the buzzing drone
lmao the puppy wolves just chilling 🤣🤣
This is my favorite show❤️🤩
Baby wolves: "Ok think we get it"...starts to eat eachother :3
Owl too cute thick🤣🤩That camera angle following the runnin babaaays wolves on ground so stunning👍👏 devastating to watch but its all lifecycle...
Amazing filming! ... Just reading 'Arctic Dreams' by Lopez. His description of Musk ox being attacked is perfectly demonstrated here.
This is truly amazing, the scenery is on the next level, its just a great perspective for us. I felt alive and there while watching. Thank you for the incredible footage! 🌈✨
I love how spy owl is the most less convincing thing. It actaully made me laugh just seeing him appear
Most less = least
These spy critters are so neat.
This is a beautiful video! I think the best part, though, is the airplane owl
Didn't know wolfs take on such big prey, I feel less safe 😂
Did anyone else experience sadness when the wolf pack left a robot pup behind.. Bravo to all those involved in the making of this incredible film.
Fantastic as always!
As long they stay together they have a chance. That’s bold going after the biggest one, but they’re not small wolves either. Kinda makes you think, how people survived when you see something like this.
This just left me wanting more
Well Filmed Impressive Owl ☆☆☆☆☆
Magnifique prise de vue. Une immersion totale comme si nous y étions pour de vrai. Mention spécial aux producteurs de ce joyau.
This is beautifully captured and a captivating story. Wow.
damn that's one of the beautiful shots I've ever seen. great work . hope the drone sound didn't disturb them
Forget the wolves, did y'all see that beautiful white owl?!
our planet is so amazing and magnificent
Glad they produce new videos
This channel deserves 20+ millions subs.
ur videos are always incredible
Thank you! That's very kind of you.
2 minutes silence for those who thinks kangal can beat a wolf
With all the new drone and camera tech that the didn’t have just 10 years ago I can’t wait for long form BBC nature content!
Спасибо за ваши фильмы!😍
Me: are you ok? You haven't touched your soup. Spy date: *starts slapping table* Me: oh I see.
This is so much better than the old animal documentaries I watched as a kid. I feel like I'm right there witnessing something I only read about in books. Amazing how far we've come and how awesome drone technology has gotten.
Couldn't disagree more. old animal documentaries (1990's) were far superior. This is not a documentary it's a raw video of a drone.
Breathtaking quality production, And very educational.
The script of this masterpiece is like a movie. :D "...the robo pup tried to catch up to the wolves but just watched the pack as it leaves with a sad eye, unable to follow.... But then behind a hill emerged his friend - the robo snow owl. XD
Remarkable cinemaphotography! Nature is brutal.
Thank you for the video man
No problem 👍 You're most welcome!
These are so interesting !Thank You !
These spy animals ideas are amazing
That's really awesome !!
The owl triggers some serious uncanny valley.
Exhausted, She gives up the fight. The most depressing line...
so glad we're not in the middle of the food chain anymore
The music and voice is so soothing
Amazing Footage John. Well done.
Many thanks!
The owl looks so funny😂
That's amazing footage. And I feel glad wolves got to eat.
At first I forgot that the video was about an owl and was imbued with the story of a robot cub who fell behind the pack and almost shed a tear when he sat down... But then this shit 0:44 flew out from behind the hill and I died of laughter
Gosh. It looks so lifelike🤪...these wolves must be thinking "are humans really so stupid"?.
the spy owl reminds me HP's "hedwig". anyway thanks for making this. i'm a wildlife lover
I waited five minutes to see the ox getting disected but the video ended just when it was to become interesting.
A friend of mine went into Musk Ox territory one day. Suddenly a whole herd came over the hill. And... Well, they're not afraid of humans. Because they don't have to be. They can easily kill humans lol. And they're angry. So the poor guy climbed the nearest tree, a small one, but just enough to get his feed about a foot above the horns. He had to stay up there, hanging on to thing twigs, for eight hours before the flock moved on lol.
That's why you keep a weapon, kill one and bring it home 🥩🍖🍗
I feel like a regular drone could have done the job just as easy. They just wanted to put an owl costume on it.
There are laws against harassing wildlife with drones. No drones should ever be used in photographing wildlife, it puts them at risk for your entertainment.
Crazy footage 💯
Did you notice they got a spy ,spying on the spy 😭
Grandma was sacrificed for her squads survival.
What made the appearance of the owlcopter even better for me is that it is being meticulously narrated by who appears to be Scrooge McDuck
Amazing recordings u got there. Its kinda unsatisfying seeing the Buffalo left behind.
Tactical error: musk ox should have gone for the puppies.
This was amazing! Thank you for all the hard work you guys do? Where can I watch full episodes of these?
Hey, let's share this video and this channel, it deserve at least more than 20 Million views!
We agree! Share, share, share...and subscribe too!
Incredible work. I’m here for the spy penguins but this is just unbelievable. The spy owl is genius.
Thank you!
That moment where you just give up and accept death...grim.
Very beautiful work
I see 3 golden retriever puppies playing with a highland calf.
Great footage. Incredible.
Many thanks!
So clever
