Hidden on the northern coast of South America, the forgotten country of Guyana holds some of the most extraordinary jungle on the planet. Much of it is so remote that even today it lies unexplored – its animals totally naive to the presence of man. Now this unique forest is unde r threat from the chainsaw as the loggers set their sights on this impoverished country.

In a bid to help Guyana protect its environment, the Expeditions team venture into this untouched land. Living rough in a jungle camp, tracking down the animals from high in the canopy to deep within the rivers, the team search for the giants of Guyana: anaconda, jaguar, giant anteaters, giant turtles and the enormous Harpy Eagle. Guyana is one of the toughest challenges the team have ever faced, and the cameras are with them every single step of the way.
