Wild Belgium

Belgium's streams and rivers are home to countless beavers, cunning grass snakes, and male sticklebacks who build intricate nests and prove to be incredibly dedicated and caring fathers.

Migratory birds begin their annual journey south and like to stop off in the Belgium countryside; the gathering of cranes and their spectacular departure is a breathtaking spectacle.

Belgium's forests hide some unusual behaviour; antlions violently pull their prey into sand funnels to feed their larvae while carnivorous sundew plants trap unwary insects with their slimy tentacles.
