Storyline

Each week, Race of Life shows you the animals that have adapted and evolved to survive in their environments and keep predators at bay. In the animal kingdom, each day is a battle for survival, and rushing to stay one step ahead of predators is a tiring job…as the sun rises the race begins all over again.
