Episode 2

Chris Packham unravels nature's weirdest events, from a crab milked for its blue blood and stones moving across the desert by themselves to a veritable swarm of rabbits.

Once again Nature's Weirdest Events has trawled the internet, raided their contact book and scoured the scientific world to unearth a treasure trove of bizarre and baffling stories. Using UGC clips of the events themselves, Chris Packham deconstructs the weirdness using eyewitness accounts, scientists and Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú archive footage.

In this series there is everything - from scores of pigs swimming in the Caribbean to the tiny tick that is turning America vegetarian. There is a giant worm decimating fish tanks, a strange blob appearing when comets are seen, a real-life sea serpent washed up on the Californian coast and a Japanese island swarming with rabbits.

From a crab milked for its blue blood and stones moving across the desert by themselves to a veritable swarm of rabbits, Chris Packham unravels nature's weirdest events.
