Summary:
Ben Fogle travels to Brazil to meet Chris, a Scotsman who has chosen to make his home in one of the most remote areas of the jungle near the Amazon River. Ben discovers how Chris's love affair with the rainforest began when he had a near-death experience, and how he fought for almost three decades to protect this part of the world. Ben also has an encounter with a tarantula, and gets stuck into a battle against termites in the heat and humidity. The duo also go hunting for wild pig and fishing for piranha.
