Natural enemies are snakes, birds, scorpions and the climate; low winter temperatures and devastating sandstorms. But the real danger is the confrontation with man, their waste attracting rats, the 4x4 wheelers riding the dunes and even regular thieves steeling chameleons.
- In the wild, beasts of all sizes clash for power or survival. From love-struck grizzly bears to raging buffalo's, witness what happens when animals face of in an all-out battle of the bravest.
