Extraordinary Animals In The Womb

OCTOBER 2008. The Pioneer Productions / National Geographic film EXTRAORDINARY ANIMALS IN THE WOMB will be broadcast in the UK on Channel Four, Monday 20th October 2008 at 9pm.

Using ground-breaking photographic techniques, state-of-the-art graphics and 4D scanning, the programme follows the embryonic journey of four animals - a kangaroo, a lemon shark, a Emperor penguin and a parasitic wasp.

I contributed to the kangaroo section of this programme, filming baby kangaroos in the pouch using a High Definition endoscope system.
