Their struggle to survive intensifies when they stumble upon an abandoned laboratory deep in the Central American rainforest.

Each season consists of three episodes, each about 45 minutes long. Nathan Small directs the first season, while Charlotte Lathane takes the helm for the second. Doug Mackay-Hope is the producer, and Jason Blum serves as executive producer.

The series combines suspense and real-life animal behavior, making it both educational and thrilling. Fans of nature documentaries and adventure stories will likely find it gripping.
This series looks like a fresh take on wildlife documentaries, blending real danger with storytelling.
