Anglia, this lush wilderness is inhabited by some special creatures - giant rodents the size of pigs and alligators with a taste for piranha. People also make a living here. Hunters, who once slaughtered creatures for their valuable skins, now show tourists around this watery paradise. Narrated by John Waters. Series editor John Sparks
