Must-Watch: Africa’s weirdest animals!

Lucy Cooke is on a one-woman mission to show why the ugly, weird and overlooked animals of the world can be cute, cuddly and deserving of attention. Join her as she heads off to the rainforests of Borneo. Borneo is its own very unique crucible of weirdness — with countless strange creatures that can only be found there. Lucy’s goal is get up close with the giant-nosed proboscis monkey to figure out why this creature looks so strange. Along the way, she finds many other “odd ones” — animals that have come up with all kinds of strange adaptations so they can survive in the forest of Borneo. Lucy finds dung beetles in action — eating dung; frogs that fly; a tarsier, with eyes that are bigger than its brain; and the wooly bat that makes its home is a carnivorous plant.
