LIVE at 3:00 PM ET / 2:00 PM CT / 1:00 PM MT / 12:00 PM PT


Presented by Lianne Thompson

Iceland’s isolated location and harsh environment pose unique challenges for animals seeking residency on this island at the edge of the Arctic. Expedition Leader Lianne Thompson explores how species like Arctic foxes arrived during the Ice Age via land bridges, while others, such as seabirds and marine mammals, journeyed across oceans to establish themselves in Iceland. She also explains the impact of volcanic activity, glaciation and human settlement on the island's biodiversity, from the spread of invasive species to the balance between wildlife and people.
