Destination WILD

Feast of the Giant Anteater (2x23)

Ausstrahlung: Jul 19, 2015

The grassland that covers the central region of Brazil is one of that country’s least-known habitats, and is home to some of the most extraordinary animals on earth. The maned wolf is a long-legged and strange predator — it sometimes feeds on fruit while at other times it hunts insects and rodents. The giant anteater is the most charmingly ridiculous animal on earth — it feeds on termites using a hugely long tongue. Termites build dramatic mounds that dot the landscape. Capuchin monkeys live on the cliffs that overlook the scrub and grassland. Discover Brazil’s beautiful and surprising secrets.
