Wildlife 100: The Fastest Claw in the West

BBC One
on BBC One London

Another of David Attenborough's 12 favourite Wildlife on One programmes.

The mantis shrimp packs a knock-out punch with the impact of a .22 calibre bullet, can break crabs and lobsters apart, and is audacious enough to take on an octopus twice its size and 20 times its weight. But why should a shrimp need such powerful weaponry?
