Grahame M @RT85783808 01/09/2024 Hahaha... Not a bad show.. They put on a good staged performance jumping on snakes etc... Lol... Good luck to you guys... Impress me....come to Australia jump on some brown snakes... Hey they're only half the size of your pythons... But fast and not sleepy... See more 03/08/2020 want to see more! Very interesting show, would love for it to make its way to dvd. See more 01/14/2020 Information on the animals themselves is sparse and vague. The 3D renderings aren't impressive in any sense. I also wasn't able to learn anything about the land itself. As far as it being informational or conservation-minded, I'd say it's lacking. If you're looking for a "cool" show with funny interactions, the shows problematic there too. The situations are hokey and contrived. But my biggest issue was this. Why go through the trouble of tiring out the snake, capturing the snake, picking it up, transporting it somewhere else and shooting it in the head with a rifle when you could just shoot it from a few yards away?
