The giant black tiger snake that lives on the remote Chappell Island off Australia can kill a man in under 30 minutes with venom 80 times more poisonous than that of the rattlesnake. The mutton bird nests in vulnerable underground burrows. Not seemingly an equally matched battle for survival as the snakes try to strike at the right time to avoid starvation. But tables are turned and the snakes become the birds' guardians when a third party appears.
