Venom

Every year, tens of thousands of people die from attack by the most venomous animals - taipans, mambas, funnel webs, black widows, blue-ringed octopuses, and bees and wasps. With 15,000 people each year dying of snakebites in the Indian sub-continent and one million people worldwide being bitten by snakes, understanding nature's chemical arsenal is vital to scientists - and to human life. Venom combines the latest research, remarkable natural history footage, state-of-the-art film techniques and high drama to uncover the astonishing power of nature's offensive chemicals... and how science is racing to combat them.
