These programmes, part of an occasional BBC series, were specially made to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the BBC's Natural History Unit.

Each film is a masterpiece of expertise and innovation: award-winning cameramen using revolutionary filming techniques, backed by the latest scientific research, and each features one of natures superstars, revealing aspects of its life that have never been seen before.

01 - Serpent
One of the most successful species on earth is also one of the least documented. Miniaturised cameras reveal the snakes world for the first time from their point of view. Head-mounted cameras capture gripping images of the world's most dangerous snakes hunting and overcoming their prey. Using high-speed photography, x-ray imaging and state-of-the-art computer graphics, this is the most ambitious look at snakes attempted in television.

02 - Eagle
Few birds have captured the human imagination as deeply as the eagle. Throughout the centuries this majestic bird of prey has been the symbol of strength and courage, such is the perfection of its design. There are 60 different kinds of eagle throughout the world, each type having adapted spectacularly to hunting different forms of prey. Remarkable aerial photography captures the dramatic life of eagles as never seen before.

03 - Tiger
Hugh Miles & Chip Houseman won the BAFTA for best factual photography in 2000 for this programme.
Dangerous, powerful, but above all breath-takingly beautiful, tigers have for centuries sparked awe and admiration. Yet, it is their very uniqueness which has made them a prized object for hunters. This film could be the last complete portrait of tigers in the wild as there is a real chance they could be extinct within the next decade. Their elusive lifestyle has made filming difficult, but after 25 years of the Project Tiger scheme operating in India's Madhya Pradesh, these big cats have become more trusting. An award-winning team of producers and cameramen have teamed up to follow the lives of several tigers by day and, by using low-light cameras, at night. The result shows the majesty of these fascinating animals and the importance of saving them from extinction.

04 - Leopard
The leopard is the least known of all Africa's big cats. Until now, the leopard, an animal of the night, has been virtually impossible to observe. Using state-of-the-art camera equipment, this film ventures into the night, and follows the lives of two leopards in Zambia's Luangwa Valley, to reveal the night-time secrets of the cat that walks on its own.

05 - Great White Shark
Just the sight of a shark's fin breaking the surface spells terror, but is this Hollywood delivered image fair. Underwater filming of these awesome fish in their natural unabated environments exposes the Great White as a paradox: a shy and cautious creature existing within a highly structured social order, but also a terrific killing machine striking with total surprise and devastating speed from the murky depths.

06 - Crocodile
Only one great reptile has survived the age of the dinosaur - the crocodile. Ancient they may be, but they are still the most successful of freshwater hunters. Only now, by exploring their complete world, above and below water, by day and night, can we fully appreciate just how sophisticated they are. In survival terms, the crocodile has every reason to smile.

07 - Humpback Whale
Few sounds are more beautiful or moving than the underwater songs of the humpback whale. Male whales compete with their songs, which often last for 10 minutes at a time, and can be repeated for hours on end. Whales separated by thousands of miles of sea will sing almost identical songs. Researchers have found that the songs change throughout the breeding months, following a mysterious pattern repeated across the waves. Whales also use sound to hunt. To catch herring, humpback whales release a stream of bubbles to form a shimmering, circular fishing net. Emitting a repetitive loud scream, they scare the fish into a tight ball, then lunge out of the water to swallow the shoal whole. Now it seems that the long-held image of the gentle giant must change to one of a ferocious and opportunistic hunter.

08 - Polar Bear
There can be few places on earth as bleak as the Arctic Circle - months of winter darkness, blizzards and ice followed by months of continuous blinding daylight. Welcome to the world of that most massive and formidable of hunters - the polar bear.

09 - Wolf
Wolves are so wary and elusive and their senses so acute that even world-renowned wolf biologist David Mech hardly ever sees them. Mech and others have had to piece together what is currently known about the lives of wolves by radio-tracking them from air over the lakes and forests of Northern Minnesota. Cameraman, Jeff Turner, spent a staggering seven months of each year, for three years, camping out in Northern Canada's Wood Buffalo National Park, home of the largest wolves in the world. In midwinter, he recorded a pack of 20 wolves harassing a herd of buffalo for seven whole days and nights before making their kill. Traveling north to Ellsemere Island, Jeff also filmed a pair of pure white Arctic wolves struggling to rear their pair of young. In India, as far south as wolves live, Ian McCarthy filmed the Indian wolves hunting the fleet-footed black buck. Near the town of Brasov, in Transylvania, an ultra-sensitive nightvision camera was used to record for the first time a family of wolves descending from their forest home to raid the town's garbage bins for let over food. As producer Mike Salisbury says: "Even the howl of the wolf, that once struck terror into our hearts, is now regarded by many as one of the most thrilling sounds of the natural world."

10 - Gorilla
Follows the 3 newly discovered gorilla sanctuaries in northern Congo, in search of the true nature of the lowland gorilla - uncovering as tangled a web of romance and friendship, jealousy and innocence as any human soap opera might contrive.

11 - Grizzly
Few animals can match the intelligence, power or resourcefulness of the North American Bear or "grizzly". This film reveals the more intimate side to the grizzly - how mothers raise and teach their cubs, the playfulness and hardships of adolescence and the rituals of courtship. Most surprising of all is that every grizzly is its own character in looks, temperament and skills.
