World's deadliest animals come alive


Home to an array of wild creatures, the world harbours the most predatory beasts. This month, be prepared to face these deadly beasts on National Geographic Channel's brand new season of World's Deadliest Animals, premiering on July 23 at 9 pm. Join the National Geographic team on a virtual tour as they leave the urban jungles to explore the dense forests of Asia to the marshy lands of the Asia Pacific to the inhabited and unexplored jungles of the Amazon and finally venturing into the inimitable terra firma of Central America. 

World's Deadliest Animals features seven episodes of an hour each focusing on what makes these ferocious creatures so revered and admired. The show has visuals which speak a thousand words and promises to enthrall, entertain and educate viewers in a way that will keep them rooted to their seats. The animals inhabiting the largest continent Asia, have evolved into the toughest of the tough to survive. The land is inhabited by the white-lipped pit viper, spitting cobras that eject their venom at the same velocity as a water pistol and accurately target a predator's eyes up to eight feet away.

Not far from this large continent, in the highly populated land of Asia Pacific, people compete for space with some of the most impressive animals in the world, creatures that have ingenious adaptations to hunt and defend. Large and powerful predators like the polar bears that hunt seals for food stalk the snowy landscape in Siberia and the salt water crocodile that has an uncanny ability to kill creatures the size of an adult water buffalo patrols the tropical waters of the Pacific. Face the anaconda, aquatic coral snake that lifts its tail to mimic its head, crocodiles and reptiles, bull sharks and bushmaster that reside in the jungles of Amazon. Watch out for the episode on Costa Rica where jaguars, bothrop asper, jumping viper and many more such deadly animals wait with bated breath to pounce on their preys.
