The Hunt has been stunning viewers with beautiful shots of the oceans, forests and Arctic.

Polar bears have been hunting seals, sparrowhawks have been chasing jays… and so the circle of life continues.

Now it’s time for a trip to the plains. Nature fans will have a chance to listen to Sir David Attenborough inform them all about honey badgers, snow geese and cheetahs.

Here are our favourite stunning shots from Sunday night’s episode…
