episode description

This city spends most of the year encased in ice...but when summer hits, Anchorage bursts into life. Animals and plants living this far north have been forced to adapt, working faster to make the most of the short season, but these animals built to withstand Alaska’s extreme winters, often struggle in Anchorage’s summer heat! Temperatures can be surprisingly high, with average July highs of 26 degrees C. 300,000 people live alongside these wild animals in the ever growing city of Anchorage. But in this urban jungle, the sizzling summer heat, sometimes brings conflict, between humans and wildlife. Forest fires, infestations, and angry animals can all make the summers, truly uncomfortable, in this wild city! But sometimes, living alongside people brings benefits, particularly for a sweaty moose, in the form of a lawn sprinkler!
