Wild things

An action-packed series on wildlife from today

National Geographic Channel’s “World’s Deadliest Animals” premiered on July 23. “World’s Deadliest Animals” features seven episodes of an hour each. To survive, the animals that inhabit Asia have evolved into the toughest of the tough. The land is inhabited by the white-lipped pit viper, spitting cobras that spew venom at the same velocity as a water pistol and accurately target a predator’s eye up to eight feet away.

Face the anaconda, aquatic coral snake, crocodiles and bull sharks that reside in the jungles of the Amazon. Then watch out for the episode on Costa Rica where jaguars and jumping vipers wait with bated breath to pounce on their prey.

The contest

The series will be promoted through an interactive online, SMS and print campaign. Viewers can test their wildlife knowledge by sending the word ‘Wild’ through SMS to 57827 and every week the highest scorer gets a chance to win Nat Geo Collector’s Edition DVD pack.

The grand prize at the end of the contest is an all-expense paid trip for two couples to Jim Corbett National Park.
