Synopsis
Be The Creature is a nature documentary series that's produced, written and hosted by zoologists Martin and Chris Kratt.
Each season of the show features the Kratt brothers travelling around the world into remote wilderness areas to live with animals on their turf.
Through their adventures they seek to go beyond simply observing the animals by trying to understand what it's like to literally Be the Creature as they walk in their tracks, swim in their waters and run with their offspring.
Each hour-long episode delves deeply into the perspective of both predator and prey.
