72 Dangerous Animals: Latin America

Fairly decent but there is a certain amount of sensationalism to this show. Like putting so much emphasis on vampire bats which honestly aren't too big a threat. You can interact with those bats and not be bitten. And the claim that Chagas Disease isn't curable is wrong too.

It's a fear mongering show, it lies and deceives with the only goal of making you fear animals (armadillos, iguanas and sloth are in the list, among with many more harmless animals). It should be pulled from streaming services because it's a disgrace for the animals and it's a disgrace for human knowledge.

I totally agree with the low raters. It's a pity, they couldn't make a real documentary about these beautiful, wonderful animals.

The original host as well as the german one speak like they would host a horror show or the like. It just sounds ridiculous. And the aggressive music throughout the whole show makes it worst.

On top of it there's barely useful information.

Ther is an incredible amount of misinformation within this series. Most importantly they get the true size of most of the animals wrong. Bushmaster snakes isually reach about 6'-7.5' but they claim almost 13.12' much larger than the world record ever documented.. also during the boa constrictor segment the videos they used included not just boa constrictor imperators but also anacondas, Burmese pythons, dumerils boas, and reticulated pythons.. it seriously shouldnt be that hard to get your facts and images correct in a well funded film.

I've learned a lot about wildlife in other areas of the world. I don't always agree with their rankings, but the rankings aren't the point. The point is just seeing the different wildlife in the area and getting a snippet of that specific animal or insect in under an hour (seems most episodes are in the upper 40 minute range).

Looking at other reviews on this I'd have to say that maybe animal activists shouldn't watch this type of program, or basically any nature documentary on Discovery, Animal Planet, etc., as none of them are really designed to your agenda. I applaud the program for simply telling why people should stay away from dangerous animals. But I would like to point out that there have been several examples in the series where they play advocate to animal rights causes and discuss abuse or endangered aspects of animals. I'd also point out that no one on the series advocates harming any of the animals, even those who have been attacked.
