Creatures of the Thaw
Run Time: 50 Minutes
Languages: English
Subtitles: English, Traditional Chinese
Winters in North East Asia are so cold that freshwater all but disappears. Many creatures leave, but those that remain have developed sophisticated strategies to survive the region’s bitter winters, and to make the most of the short warm summers. In the rivers, fast-flowing currents and natural springs ensure some areas remain free of ice. The springs provide a bounty of aquatic plants for migrating Siberian whooper swans, resting-places for the dormant Ezo brown frog, and a midstream refuge where Japanese cranes can safely roost.
