Attack And Defend

Lions, hyenas, cheetahs, and the highly intelligent African painted dog all have different, but brutally efficient, hunting instincts. Meet these intimidating rulers of the African plains and learn the secrets of their secure reign at the top of the natural food chain.

Birds of prey are amazing hunters. Their adaptations allow them to catch a wide range of prey in a variety of environments. This is a look at some of the most fearsome North American birds.

Every predator needs a speciality and these tenacious insect-eaters have a great one. They evolved to hunt a virtually unlimited food source: bugs.

From our point of view, cold-blooded predators are brutal, savvy, programmed killers. But from their point of view, it's just another day at the butcher's counter.

Staying alive is job one for these masters of defence. With clever adaptations like mimicry and poison on their side, they continue to outwit predators.
