"Realm of the Killer Whales" peers into the secret world of killer whales in the Pacific Northwest and their hunt for herring and salmon in the waters off British Columbia.

"Sperm Whale Oasis" takes a look at these great whales, rarely filmed because they dwell at great depths and because centuries of whaling have made them wary of humans.
