Program: Nature #2206
Cuba's political and economic isolation has provided the outside world little opportunity to see its wildlife ... until now. It may be renowned for its politics and its cigars, but Cuba is home to some of the most unusual creatures on earth, including the feisty Cuban crocodile, the world's smallest bird and frog, and migrating land crabs.
Part of the 26th season of the Peabody and Emmy award-winning series produced by Thirteen/WNET New York for PBS, "Cuba: Wild Island of the Caribbean" airs Sunday, March 30 at 8 p.m. (check local listings). Major support provided by Canon U.S.A. Inc., Toyota, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. For more information, visit www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/cuba/
