: PBS LearningMedia - Kratt's Creatures: The Great Defenders

: PBS LearningMedia

Back again with another post. This episode of Kratt's Creatures focuses on creature defenses of all sorts. The Kratt brothers, along with Allison Baldwin, learn about how animals defend themselves and they all experience a rough time doing it. Poor Martin! He gets bitten by a snapping turtle, sprayed by a skunk, and attacked by a mother goshawk. Oh yeah, and he gets stung by bees too. Don't worry, he healed up and he even gets his justice at the end of the episode as Chris and Allison experience for themselves creature defenses. Chris gets sprayed by a skunk while Allison gets stung by bees and infected by poison ivy. So, all's well that ends well. This episode for me is right up there with the cheetah one in terms of hilarity and entertainment value. I should warn you however that Martin advocates the evolutionary view of "human ancestors" losing their tails millions of years ago. Anyways, have a good one!
