Summary:

Survival expert Ray Mears visits the most iconic and contrasting landscapes of Australia - the swamps of the Northern Territories and wild mountain ranges of Tasmania - on the trail of two of the continent's most notorious creatures. By studying the Salt Water Crocodile and Tasmanian Devil, Ray gains a privileged insight into their unique habitats and a better understanding of how the 'bad guys' gained their reputations. With the help of experts, including animal researchers, search and rescue teams and indigenous people who live off the land, he also learns how survival in the wilderness today - for top predators and humans alike - is far from easy.
