TG4 are set to air a David Attenborough-style animal series about the 'fragile' Dublin Bay.
Worries have been growing among environmental campaigners for the capital’s eco-system.
And the new series, An Cuan, is intended to be a celebration of the beauty of Dublin Bay - but also a reminder of the challenges and dangers that its natural habitat faces.
The four-part series taking a year-long look at the fascinating and unique eco-systems of the Bay and the surrounding beaches.
The series, they say, "will explore this unique urban area where nature and humanity at times live in harmony and at others battle to co-exist".
TG4 continues: “Teeming with life, both wild and human, the bay faces many challenges both natural and manmade.
“This series will take our audience on a journey through this beloved part of Ireland’s coastline and show it in a way rarely seen before.
“An Cuan will showcase the natural beauty of Irish wildlife against the backdrop of the country’s urban centre.”
It follows animals and humans for over a year and starting with Spring, An Cuan shines a light on the multitudes of animal life that make up Dublin Bay.
It shows us the many environmental issues that we need to address and looks at how the industry and people of the bay are learning to co-exist with the wildlife.
Naturalists and activists speak on the show as they fight to maintain the capital’s fragile eco-system and celebrate the joys and beauty of life by the sea up and down its shores.
This nature and environment series is set to be entertaining, intriguing and an educational exploration of one of the most surprising natural areas in Ireland.
An Cuan will air from Wednesday 10 November at 9.30pm.
