Filmmaker John Aitchison has travelled to some of the most remote parts of the planet to document the world's wildlife. His new book, The Shark and the Albatross, tells the stories of some of those encounters.

From a pack of hungry wolves in pursuit of an elk in Yellowstone National Park, to navigational emperor penguins in Antarctica, Aitchison has endless fascinating anecdotes about our planet's animals.
