Bats — The Wonder of Animals
Chris Packham examines the senses, anatomy and physiology of bats to understand what enables the creatures to thrive in surprising places. Tiny hairs on their wings give them a detailed air-flow map during flight, while heat sensors on the nose of vampire bats allow them to search out the most blood-rich areas of a prey's body, and iron oxide particles in the bat brain may act as a compass, enabling them to find the most direct route back to the roost

Birds of Prey — The Wonder of Animals
Chris Packham investigates what enables birds of prey to rule the aerial roost, and reveals that their ability to dominate their fellow birds in terms of strength, manoeuvrability and phenomenal speed is down to a combination of anatomical and physiological adaptations.
