A look at the Gulf Coast - a diverse water world teeming with life. In Georgia's Okefenokee Swamp, an alligator mother exhibits newly observed behaviour as she stirs the swamp to help her hatchlings learn to hunt. In Florida's Crystal River, manatees gather, and young males practise courtship in a rarely filmed behaviour known as cavorting. The Everglades reveal a new perspective on the apple snail, laying its eggs above water to protect them from fish while facing danger from aerial predators. On Marco Island, Florida, burrowing owls find love amidst suburban sprawl - a unique glimpse into their adaptation to human habitats. In the Texan thorn scrub, rarely seen footage shows a mother ocelot, one of the last remaining in the United States, raising her kittens.
