Wild Things with Dominic Monaghan

S01E06 Army Ants

Dom ventures deep into the Ecuadorian Amazon to confront a staggering colony of four million flesh-eating, venomous army ants—possibly the largest ant colony ever found in the New World. As he navigates the jungle, he encounters various wildlife, including leaf cutter ants, a massive rhinoceros beetle, a green parrot snake, and a dangerously venomous Brazilian wandering spider. After finally locating the army ant colony, he follows them on a raid, captivated by their relentless assault on everything in their path, from a scorpion to a nest of paper wasps and a katydid. But will Dom muster the bravery to allow the ants to attack him?
