Conservation of the natural world is something that can unite humanity if people know enough about it. Cameraman Martyn Colbeck relates that every single day during a six-week African visit to film for "Jungles", he and his crew were awakened by the sound of gunshots. Poaching can quickly wipe out a population. Other featured animals at risk include the Walia Ibex, the Snow Leopard, the boto, and saiga Antelope.
