National Geographic: Nature's Fury - DVD

It can happen in a flash. An ambush you never see coming. Hikers are easy prey for hungry mountain lions. A chimp cuts loose on an unsuspecting woman. Buffalo snap an impale pursuing hunters. National Geographic explores what defines the stealthy, fierce, ultimate predators and reveals an up-close look at their arsenal of deadly weapons. Programs include Death by Dragon, Chimp Attack, and Animal Assassins.

Set sail with an extraordinary family as they spend an Antarctic summer studying isolated colonies of penguins amid the icy wonders of the Earth's most spectacular wilderness. Aboard their 50-foot steel-hulled schooner, naturalist Sally and Jerome Poncet and their three young boys embark on an incredible adventure as they document the fascinating life cycles of various penguin species, as well as battle elephant seals, massive humpback whales, and other intriguing creatures that inhabit this starkly beautiful realm. Also, meet an elite team of climbers and adventurers, including Jon Krakauer, author, who brave fierce conditions and attempt to be the first to climb one of Antarctic's most forbidding peaks.

At the bottom of South America, where the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans collide, is Patagonia, one of the last great wild Edens on Earth. Join National Geographic on a journey to this breathtaking subantarctic region and its crown jewel- Tierra del Fuego- a beautifully desolate island at its most southern tip. Home to Magellanic penguins, elephant seals, right whales, and guanacos, this stark, wind-whipped wilderness now faces its greatest challenge: recovering from the misguided actions of man. With stunning footage and behind-the-scenes interviews with some of the world's most committed conservationists, Eden at the End of the World offers a wondrous glimpse into the pristine haven that is Patagonia.
