[edit] Information

Ocean Stories: Series 1 Teeming with marine wildlife, our oceans are full of fascinating stories – like that of the sperm whale, the biggest predator on earth that lives in the Mediterranean alongside the elusive monk seal. Underwater filmmaker Thomas Behrend takes us to the habitat of the ocean sunfish with the help of a high-tech submarine camera. And while giant octopuses and manatees are the heroes of another story, a marine biologist tells us about her unique friendship with a dolphin on the Irish coast.

[edit] The Giant And The Phantom

Is there any truth in the legend that Sperm whales, the largest carnivores on earth, live in the depth of the Mediterranean? And what about the monk seals, one of the most endangered mammals on earth? Very little is known about the elusive seals that once populated most beaches from Greece to Spain.

[edit] Manatees and Molas

The Ocean Sunfish or Mola is the biggest and one of the most weird bony fish in the Pacific as well as in the Mediterranean Sea, normally living in the unreachable deep sea. In Florida we meet the massive but gentle Manatees, and see how they live, and how they are endangered.

[edit] Dolphins and Whales

About 10 years ago Ute Margreff got to know the female solitary dolphin Mara – it was the start of an unusual friendship. In the Pacific Northwest, Florian Graner found his private paradise close to Seattle, where he dives into a world inhabited by sea lions, giant octopuses and orca whales.
