Natural History: Intrepid Explorer

Its cameras have scaled the summit of K2, plunged to the depths of the Atlantic to capture the discovery of the sunken Titanic, and traversed 1,200 miles through the jungles in Congo to help save one of the last wild places on Earth. It has over 400 awards to its credit, including 13 CableACE awards, two Academy Award nominations and 54 Emmy Awards, including two this month for Wolf Pack and Killer Cats of the Kalahari - more Emmys than any other news or documentary program. Looking back over its track record, one could say that National Geographic's Explorer series is a bit of an over-achiever.
