A new trailer for the second series of the popular natural history documentary Our Planet, narrated by one of the nation’s most loved TV presenters Sir David Attenborough has been released by Netflix.

The four-part series, from the Emmy Award-winning team behind the show’s first series and Planet Earth, will “unravel the mysteries of how and why animals migrate”.

The streaming platform has unveiled the first look at Our Planet II after the first series became a hit with viewers which “raised awareness of the world's rarest wildlife and most precious habitats, and the threats they face” according to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF).
