is our, our stay with us to learn how residents have a remote island are showing the world how they can co exist with the threatened facts searching for that. and thank you for watching our new show. the city is hungry for the future in southwest, telling us 32000000 people live here. many of them are young readings coming through, making money, having fun. stuff, september 19th, on dw, the

allows aging new, happy occasion. in the middle of winter, the a female humpback well has given birth to a calf with a light colored belly. its skin is very wrinkling, and its eyes are still closed to help it take its 1st breath, the mother and make sure that her caps blowhole remains above water. it's a very special moment. only a few years ago this scene would have been unthinkable. there were no wails left in the area at all, but thanks to a hunting more tore em, they're back in all their glory. and the water is around love for you and your an island in the indian ocean to big

a veritable well nursery. on this beautiful day and september, a small, well joins the large wales family the during the 1st few days of its life, the calf stays close to its mother. taking comfort from the physical contact. its mothers, large body is a safe haven and the vast expanse of ocean the within a week the calf has already put on 200 kilograms. it's still very attached to its mother, but gradually the young will builds up courage and begins to experiment with its bodies. extraordinary abilities

the, the cast a sense in the water and spreads. it spins like a bird in flight. the it's life is regulated by breathing intervals at the water surface in the beginning, these last only a few minutes the but the mother is strict. she trains her calf for longer and longer intervals. the with the each passing day, the caps, confidence groves. gradually,

the mother coaxes her calf to dive deeper and deeper. now, she hovers just above the sand. at a depth of 40 meters, the calf ventures further and further away, and senses the attraction of the vast unknown world. the now, the whale calf is about to meet people for the 1st time,

the sum divers have come to welcome the futures, the giant. they hold hands and weight from a respectful distance for the calf to swim up to them the a special moment for the divers and for the young. well, the last for you and your is one of the last places in the world for this kind. the

open sea encounter is still possible the, the way humans interact with whales here has changed to a few years ago, encounters could be touching, go. some swimmers with little knowledge of ocean wild life, were not even aware that they were in the presence of a 40 ton 15 meter long animal, ready to protect its young, the. as a result, swimmers frightened well mothers into taking unnecessary flight measures with their caps. mother and calf ended up stressed and exhausted during a season which rest was what they needed most.

the fortunately, swimmers today are better informed at the wales and they approach with respect. this more peaceful coexistence is essential if this type of encounter is to continue the sea turtle is used to sharing its reef with divers. she's on phased by her admirers

interest, and still ugly, continues feeding. after all, she needs her strength for the upcoming journey to europa island on a tall in the waters between madagascar and mozambique. human activity can be dangerous for animals. this turtle was found at night by divers. it had been badly injured by a boat propeller. the scientist recognized the animal immediately its emma, one of the rare green sea turtles that come to love where you on your own. during the breeding season, the, the scientists and my head died, but then she reappeared an event. the head of the sea turtle observatory, found deeply moving woods. jack, i'm such a because i came back to see that normally there should be

a rid alone here is being broken, boats traveling too fast coast this kind of damage that was a hefty collision for m a is the 6th season in a row. we 1st saw her in 2007 last year she was expected in november, but she didn't show up here any buffering any the on. yeah. going up, but i'm going so he sits in the middle of the pool. was sort of print this year to our surprise and delight. she reappeared on the beach to lay her eggs as when we saw her injury, which is now almost completely healed. come in, but you can still see that the shells richard is. he has changed. she has a large scar to con. i'm guessing something after this for years and i only 2 females have been coming to live for you and you on to leave their eggs during the reading season. mamma is the most faithful. then after the accident, she disappeared in life without her reproductive population on the radio and young would have been hobb following up with you guys, the only things that i know feelings balance is on sell them and so forth. and

decades of turtle conservation on radio and young beginning in the 1980s would have been at least partially got out in vain. he owned the place. i'm a and i think that's the one on the subject for this time. of isaiah is all very fragile. and you always have to keep that in mind. attracting to us with 6 people, tours at the young reunion is not sustainable for the island. increasing profits and economic growth of the primary goals. we simply wouldn't make it also known, you know, even apart from the, the return of wells and sea turtles to the island of luckily, own young has led to the development of new business models. the number of whale watching tour operators has exploded. often the welfare of the animals takes

a backseat. but there is a middle ground, the the, the hello mama. thank you. that's incredible. if they come to us of their own accord success, and that's exactly what we want, the animals should decide for themselves. we're lucky on the radio, know that the whales come very, very close to our coast. look at that time, it's incredible. let's see, this one decided on just one trip a day. this year. it was only because these days there are lots of people out at sea. so that's the best way to protect a well the secure when it the own screw month listing. we disturbed them as little as possible that we should really go further and limit the total number of trips

allowed to per day. but you know how tempting money and business can be the see. and it's titled out that this doesn't get out of hand and jeopardize the whilst i feel like this magic, we've been able to experience for the last 15 years. you'll see will sit mozy on the national council on an island as densely populated as level you and your the return of sea turtles. and humpback whales presents a rare 2nd chance to get things right. the on the west coast of lovely and young a marine reserve has been set up. its goal is to harmonize human activities with wild life welfare. here the whale calf and his mother have recently been placed under the highest protection. a quiet soon keeps them safe from disturbance and possible collisions with both

the or the both the baby. well and the green sea turtle are just passing through here the . the green sea turtle has reached sexual maturity, which takes upwards of 20 years. now it's time for her to return to the island

where she was born. and so begins an incredible journey to the island of europa. 2000 kilometers west of left virginia, an island that she herself left just a few minutes after hatching. and hasn't returned to since the, the whale cast is also ready. it is now experienced enough to take on its 1st big journey. since leaving antarctica, its mother has been living off, her fat preserves. she can no longer stay in the waters of law for you on your the she sets off with her little one in the direction of san marie. the island off the

coast of madagascar is a meeting point for humpback whales on their way to antarctica. the ocean currents are favorable and the turtle dress so long towards the coast of the coma rose her journey takes her past north or in madagascar as she approaches the coast. she's once again confronted with humans. the muffled noises coming from the surface, or meant to drive the turtles into the next. others had fallen into the trap, but she escaped the space the

although green turtles are now protected. they are still hunted in madagascar and the commerce, the for the people here who are among the poorest in the world. it's often a matter of survival. the, the green turtle is now approaching the coast of the commerce. she's eating virtually nothing since leaving left for you on your own. the the beautiful sea grass beds of moya, the island. unimportant stuff over on the turtles fruit. the

that there are so many green sea turtles here is in large part thanks to the inhabitants of the small village of itsm. yeah. they do their utmost to protect the animals from poachers. to hear humans and turtles live together in harmony. it's a unique place. the mazda presented some people say, no to of any of them. i protect the turtles because they are a future. you hardly see any turtles in the commerce or anywhere else in the world . for us, they are treasures of all small villages should do what we do. church holes should be protected worldwide. that would be a better world, a modern world,

and pretty much to have. what about more than 25 years ago? the beaches of it's m. yeah. were littered with turtle carcases. the slaughter prompted the young people of the village to organize. they decided to take the protection of the sea turtles into their own hands. it was the beginning of an anti poaching movement. the . we have to be careful. fishing with fishing nets is prohibited in the marine reserve as one of the coolest st. does. the guy we filed several complaints against going up, but someone's always got to spiking the left legally. they told you before, let's go. this is evidence

today i caught and red handed i cost him to she least she lives with these. once you have a lot, i definitely trust you on the truck they drive through there. look at the tracks up to their. oh no, even the eggs they've got really stinks. people who killed turtles, a criminal case. i've been really hands on him in the village. well, he's really in for it was the people looked at some. yeah. of them. i've every one of us a want to give them a smack and rush in case that case done it this way in the neighboring villages. i, there are people forget it and others. we just don't want to understand meet costs and nothing is passed by so many people come here to coach turtles. it's one of quite example flu people, but when it's on the, it's some yes, n t poaching movement has borne results. today some $5000.00 turtles come here

every year to lay their eggs on the beaches. but vigilance is still required. people here work together to ensure that the green sea turtles continue to visit the small village for a long time to come. so that future generations can enjoy this rich environmental heritage, the, the waters around the island of moya lease, or just one stage on the route of our green sea turtle,

or journey continues southwards to europa island. the, the in just 7 days, the young whale, cass and its mother have covered the 700 kilometers separating left for you in june and madagascar the they make another stop over in the warm and shallow waters of the island of sand. monkey. a welcome committee awaits them on the beach. in winter wales set the rhythm for humans. the arrival of the sea giants here, so close to the coast is always an event. the

1st came up from the water and the little one flip, the slipper. the mom came very close to

a rough piece and the baby was on her head. she came closer and closer. so we moved away. what's all this is all that i people well season is a good time for us and in cool. i don't know why, but when the wheels are here, the fish show up to the jack macro and to not put them level, which is on button. and so the wheels season is a blessing for us and what top i fish close to them. so compared to mine, which will boot their huge 9 tiny, fortunately, their friendly animals, if i don't die is that is only a totally how deceptively peaceful battle of the titans is brewing in the water. the water is around this smell. it

gas the island are the main breeding grounds for humpback whales in the indian ocean. the competition between the pools is intense. they have just discovered a young female accompanied by her young. the courting bull whales pursued the pair and try to eliminate the competition the same time the they fight each other with powerful flipper blows and with their snow, also known as rustic rooms. the young female and her cap are surrounded by about 10, fiercely determined bolts. the seas boisterous demonstrations of strength can be fatal for the way. okay. the

mother tries to protect her baby by staying very close to it. in the confusion of wells song and air bubbles, the little one is suddenly separated from its mouth as if they were to lose each other. the little well would not be able to survive on its own. but with just a few strokes of her tilt and the mother is back with her cap, the when the situation threatens to become impossible, there's only one way out. she takes her calf on her back and to send to the surface to remove it from the danger zone. a few hours later, there's only one bull left in the race. he will now be allowed to escort the pair to and are to come. and perhaps, when the young females favor the

after a final battle, his opponents retreat the this will cast was less fortunate. after losing contact with his mother, it wandered through the sea for several days before. finally starving to death. and genre has come to investigate the tragedy. she's the scientific director of set

contact between mother and cath is so vital for the well caps survival. the pair are in constant communication. the examining, recorded data, malagasy scientists recently discovered new facets of the communication that takes place between them, motherwell and her young. the

it is now time for our well calf and its mother to leave the waters of madagascar and set off for antarctica. the europa island, the green sea turtles odyssey, is coming to an end with the help of the ocean currents. she's travelled 2000 kilometers from left for you and young to these meeting grounds. her instincts have served her well. this is where males and females from all corners of the indian ocean meet in the middle of the vast, lonely sea. the island of your rope is no waste. this teeming with life. the

4 hours on end. the turtles weighs back and forth with the current, serene, and unflappable. nothing has changed here since she was born. the 2 heads protrude from between the corals. the green sea turtle has found to meet the meeting begins and it will take several hours. ready the to avoid drowning. the females swims to the surface at regular intervals to breeze

. on a norm's feat of strength, the, the, the exhausted she drinks. and finally washes up about a 100 meters from the coast by the, the turtle is carrying new life within her. in 2 months, she'll entrust her eggs to the sands of europe until then to rest and return the she waits in front of the exact spot where she herself was born. weird, all began some 20 years earlier. when the time comes,

she leaves the sea for the 1st time as an adult turtle, and ventures to show the at desk she uses the tide declined the beach, her body. so light in the water is a burden on land. nevertheless, she climbs as far as possible up the beach to find the ideal nesting spot guided by instinct, she finally dicks the perfect home the

there she lays around a 100 x. for long journey has not been in vain. the but the land phase can be risky. the low tide has created a truck, and our inexperience turtle finds herself behind sharp edged rocks. the completely exhausted, she finally reaches the c, the

the mother will and her cap have resumed their journey together with their escort, they cross the polar front, where the warm waters of the indian ocean meet the cold water is of the antarctic. the, the will cast, navigates the stormy tides with ease, as if the roiling ocean were nothing more than a large playground. the
