ITV’s This Morning's resident vet, Dr Scott Miller, explores the Arctic onboard Scenic Eclipse in a new three-part Animals of the Arctic feature investigating the rare, unique animals of the region.
The first episode of the Animals of the Arctic series was broadcast on Monday 30th October, followed by the latter episodes broadcasting on Monday 6th November and Monday 13th November.
During the sailing, Dr Miller joins members of the Scenic Eclipse expert Discovery team to admire some of the world’s rarest and most majestic beasts, ticking off polar bears, narwals, Atlantic puffins, and Arctic foxes.
Scenic Eclipse is one of the world’s most technologically advanced exploration vessels featuring two Airbus helicopters, a submersible, and a state-of-the-art GPS dynamic positioning system allowing the ship to track polar bears as they prowl remote ice sheets in search of prey.
Limited to just 200 guests in the Polar regions, its expert team can maximize landings when cruising in the Arctic for close-up interactions.
Dr Scott Miller says, "Seeing animals in their natural habitats is always a joy. The Animals of the Arctic series set out from the beginning to highlight the incredible ecosystem of the region and what a treat the trip on Scenic Eclipse turned out to be. I very much hope viewers get a sense of the untamed majesty of the region."
“It’s hard to explain how rich and diverse the wildlife is until you see it. You can have a day where things seem quiet, then suddenly the air is filled with thousands of different seabirds, or you're seeing giant humpback whales breaching the water.
I especially liked how exploration cruising allows you to have a low-impact experience and yet see so much up close,” he adds.
New for 2024 is Scenic Eclipse's 18-day Arctic Circle & Northern Europe Discovery cruise leaving Tromsø, Norway, for the northernmost tip of the Arctic region.
You'll sail high above the Article Circle and bear witness to the dramatic Midnight Sun and remarkable wildlife, searching for orcas, reindeer, and porpoises, and exploring the sight of an erupted volcano on Heimaey & Westman Islands, home to the world’s largest nesting ground for Atlantic Puffins.
