Fight for Life. The deadly battle between predator and prey is examined in the first of a three-part look at what makes animals tick. Wildlife action and 3-D animation reveal the hidden mechanisms that make the difference between life and death, from the tiger as it pursues a much lighter, quicksilver quarry to the Burmese python that can spring back into life after shutting down its metabolism for two years. Narrated by Robert Lindsay.
