The Hunt: Nowhere to Hide

Examining animals on the hunt in deserts and grasslands, where prey has nowhere to hide - but neither do predators, making the element of surprise difficult to come by. Cheetahs use their unmatched speed to solve this problem, while lions have learned to use desert storms to conceal their approach and caracals are able to blend into the tall dry grass. The programme also features footage of bald eagles stalking snow geese, hot rod ants who rely on the sun to kill their food, and headlight beetles that lure termites to their death with an eerie glow
