National Geographic Dangerous Encounters : Slimy Monsters

Slimy Monsters
They're cute, harmless and usually the size of your thumb…If you think you know what salamanders are…think again! Renowned Herpetologist Dr. Brady Barr is off on a journey to find the world's largest salamanders - giants that can grow up to five feet long and weigh as much as 80 pounds. But can one of these giants be the King of the Salamanders? To find out, Brady will capture the big 4 of the salamander world - The greater siren, an oddball that breathes through gills, has just 2 legs and can spin like a top. The two toed Amphiuma a snake like salamander with teeth like a shark. The monstrous Japanese Giant Salamander that can grow as big as a human and a creature so hideous they call it the hellbender. Brady will rate their size, survival skills and their overall sliminess to see which of these beasts is truly the King of the Amphibians. This is a clash of the titans and it's go time, in the slime.
