How wildlife adapts to the concrete jungle of Singapore

Hidden Wild | David Attenborough's Wild City 1/6 | Go Wild · 46:13 · Video: Go Wild · Watch at the source

In short: Explore the hidden biodiversity of a city that covers most of its island. This episode follows the daily lives of animals that have successfully integrated into urban environments, from high-rise condos to drainage systems.

Narrated by Sir David Attenborough, the series examines how plants and animals have adapted to Singapore's rapidly changing landscape. The footage highlights diverse species occupying unique urban niches: suburban macaques living between forests and condominiums, civets nesting in roof cavities, and pythons hunting in city drains.

A notable highlight is the world-first family of otters residing in Marina Bay. These stories illustrate the resilience of nature as it finds space within a bustling metropolitan infrastructure.
