Wild Faces of Switzerland
Marmots work hard all summer to feed incessantly and lay down enough fat reserves to pass the cold season in hibernation. But this is not to be confused with a refreshing night’s sleep: far from it. This is more like a life-threatening emergency state. Scientists have found out that marmots repeatedly need to come round from their hibernation and have a proper sleep if they are to survive the hostile winter at all.
Ibex, too, have surprising ways of getting through winter. Even though they live in the high mountains year-round, they don’t appear to like snow at all and prefer to avoid it at all cost. In the cold of the winter nights, their body temperature decreases to save energy - their legs now only measure a meagre 15 degrees. While this would mean certain death from exposure for other animals, it allows the ibex to manage its energy requirements and survive here.
These and other astonishing winter-stories lie at the heart of this film, illustrated with stunning and captivating images that bring the impressive wildlife and spectacular scenery to life. Breath-taking aerials give us a bird’s-eye view of remarkable landscapes while amazing locations even take us on excursions below the ice.
But even the toughest winter is over at some point and gives respite to fauna and flora. This is when chamois seem to express their joy at the return of spring with wild leaps and bounds. Marmots, on the other hand, have no time for such extravagance: their summer is so short, that the males waste no time and sometimes even mate with females that haven’t come round from their hibernation yet. For them, spring and summer are nothing more than a chance to prepare for their next fight for survival in the tough winter months of Grisons.

When I watch a video about nature with the inhabitains of these places, the more and more often I want to watch; unique shots! Thanks to the filmmakers.
AMAZING VIDEO!!! Loved it :-)
Our planet earth is so beautiful I try to enjoy it every moment and everywhere I stand.
Nice videos😌
The wolves are great hunters in the snow, the only reason they go down is because that’s where the prey goes to feed easier on grasses under snow, not as deep as in the higher mountains!
Amazing Love Nature 😍
Stunning video. 💯🎥👍👍🌹🌹
'whatever was forest must remain forest' I like that, I wish America would make that law.

My best friend, It's always great. Your video is excellent quality. We liked and enjoyed to the end. Thanks
Beautiful documentary same wild faces of Gilgit-Baltistan
I’m going to move to Switzerland soon! I’m so excited!!!
The higher the altitude the longer the wait for spring to arrive. For some hibernations it's high time for them to wake. The momots, seldom have time for lengthy relaxation. Spring time is preparing all over for winter, which can be strikingly beautiful
Spectacularly done.
Wunderbar. Danke schön.
I love all the creatures. What is a great video about wildlife? Thank you.
I From Malaysia muah muah muah I love it
Thanks WOW THAT'S AWESOME
Excellent piece of work here. Switzerland is beautiful and intriguing. What a great place to live I'm sure of that.
I'm surprised the fox eats that many mice. 20 a day, that's like one every 30 minutes for 10 hours. He has to constantly walk around looking for them.

calm and kind like the breeze, quick and elusive like the wind, light and wandering like the clouds, spotless and pure like the rain, Green and promissing like the spring, current and roaring like the river, hard and firm like the mountain, deep and deep like the ocean, blazing and bright like the sun, vast and unassuming like the desert, green and lively like the tree, blue and endless like the sphere, hidden and smiling like the bud, funny and blooming like the flower, hopeful and A rainbow like a human.
I thank God, I've been there, Lauerz...I wonder how u r currently...Gruezie

When people are skiing , peace and quiet take a back seat. Much pandemoniium
Outstanding video very nice view ❤
Winter seems as whole of nature is holding its breath, waiting for spring to arrive. But frost, snow still has the upper hand. The ibex are in rut during winter, they pursue the females tirelessly. They use their tongu and Jacob son's organ . The bewitching aroma of the female has its effect on the male.
Brilliant programme 😊👍🇬🇧
Amazing 😍

These Horns are magnificent
It is wonderful to see a documentary focused on Graubunden. I've had the good fortune to twice visit a friend who lives there. I've learned even more, and now have more ideas for my next visit. BTW, the Scrooge McDuff reference at 26.20 was hilarious.
Estos documentales son mi imán para no pararme de la silla, A pesar de la dificultad para los que no entendemos mucho inglés, este narrador es excelente, solo que está editado con poco volumen, pero es entendible. Muchas gracias, felicitaciones a la narradora.
