Living in Socotra | A Lost World Isolated for Millions of Years | 4K Travel Documentary What would happen if evolution on Earth had taken an entirely different path? There is an island that offers the strangest answer. Here, enormous trees spread their canopies to capture the mist, their trunks bleed dark red resin, and creatures found nowhere else on Earth roam the landscape. Amid this extraordinary world, more than sixty thousand people still fish, herd goats, and search for water on an island isolated in the middle of the ocean. Yet that isolation has never been absolute. Deep inside its caves, ancient inscriptions reveal that sailors from distant lands once reached these shores. Today, beneath its primeval forests, an invisible crisis is slowly causing the next generation to disappear. What is really happening on this island? Welcome to Socotra, an island shaped by isolation.
