Release Notes
11. "Ocean Deep"
Originally transmitted: 10 December 2006 (UK), 25 March 2007 (US)
The final instalment concentrates on the most unexplored area of the planet: the
deep ocean. It begins with a whale shark used as a shield by a shoal of bait
fish to protect themselves from yellowfin tuna. Also shown is an oceanic
whitetip shark trailing rainbow runners. Meanwhile, a 500-strong school of
dolphins head for the Azores, where they work together to feast on scad
mackerel. Down in the ocean's furthest reaches, some creatures defy
classification. On the sea floor, scavengers such as the spider crab bide their
time, awaiting carrion from above. The volcanic mountain chain at the bottom of
the Atlantic Ocean also sustains life through the bacteria that surround its
sulphide vents. There are thought to be around 30,000 undersea volcanoes, some
of them taller than Mount Everest. Their sheer cliffs provide anchorage for
several corals and sponges. Nearer the surface, the currents that surround these
seamounts force nutrients up from below and thus marine life around them is
abundant. Off the Mexican coast, a large group of sailfish encircle another
shoal of bait fish. The hunters change colour as a message of their intentions
since an attack could also be fatal to others of their number. The last sequence
depicts the largest animal on Earth: the blue whale, of which 300,000 once
roamed the world's oceans. Now fewer than 3% remain. Planet Earth Diaries shows
the search in the Bahamas for oceanic whitetip sharks
