Speed Kills

Discover the science of speed behind creatures of the sea. Here, marlins chase their prey at 75 MPH, stonefish strike at jaw-dropping speeds, and mantis shrimp throw the fastest punch in the animal kingdom.

Enter the African grassland, and discover how cheetahs, hyenas, hawks, crocodiles, and other assassins of the Savannah use their evolution-perfected design mechanisms to kill with lightening-fast speed.

Enter the lush and shadowy wild, where baboons rule the day, leopards own the trees, and African Goshawks reign over the skies. The world's jungles host some of the fastest animals on the planet. Vipers literally strike at lightning speed, and much more.
