Philippines
Episode 4 of 6
Steve Backshall is in the Philippines to seek a living dinosaur, and delves into a subterranean world to find an arachnid with legs four times longer than its body.
Steve Backshall is in the Philippines for another of his best ever missions. He has a tense and intimidating encounter with a living dinosaur, and delves into a subterranean world to find an arachnid with legs four times longer than its body.
An early morning dive in the beautiful waters of the Philippines rewards him with a stunning shark that spends most of the day 550 meters below the surface. There is a swim with one of the deadliest snakes on the planet, and a nocturnal search in the jungle reveals a Tarsier, a deceptively cute predator who eats its victims head first.
