Whale Falls: The Deep Ocean's Sunken City

About this episode

A single whale death seeds a multi-decade, life-filled ecosystem in the dark. We trace the rapid scavenger frenzy, the bone-eating Osedax, and a chemosynthetic web that turns the abyss into a connected, carbon-storing biome—showing how energy flows, not ends, define life in the deep.
